Safari Carnegie Dilophosaurus helping nearly equally sized Battat Utahraptor stand. Looks more like an attack, doesn't it?

Safari Carnegie Dilophosaurus helping nearly equally sized Battat Utahraptor stand. Looks more like an attack, doesn't it?

Beautiful! Hopefully I can get my hands on one of those Utahraptors some time!

[Shonisaurus]

Nice figures, the triceratops mobile play is quite decent, and Battat's utahraptor is very nice, by the way and excuse me for my audacity, does Battat's big utahraptor support you? Fortunately mine does.

The dilophosaurus from Safari/Carnegie was one of my acquisitions, also very exciting, I congratulate you for the photos and the figures. Thanks for posting them.

Excuse me, @Shonisaurus, what exactly do you mean by "Does it support you?"?

[Shonisaurus]

@Libraraptor A thousand apologies for my lousy English I mean if the utathraptor stands up correctly without any problem. In other words, Battat's utathraptor does not have any sustainability problems. I repeat, forgive my lousy English, which in these times is a shame on my part.

[Libraraptor]

Hey, @Shonisaurus, I do not think your English is bad. I just wanted to be able to answer as precisely as possible. Unfortunately, the Utahraptor does not stand on its one leg. Of course it can't. It stand quite well on four legs, actually.

[Shonisaurus]

@Libraraptor Thank you for your words, I understand, fortunately my large Battat's utathraptor (and also the small one) stand perfectly, and that the climate of my city is dry cold.

Look how these two small Amargasaurus look together : 3D puzzle and Chap Mei.



Marolin/VEB Plaho Megatherium and Iguanodon. Note that the Iguanodon has ears

[Bokisaurus]

  I once had both of those Amarga figures, but lost parts of the 3D one and decided to get rid of both
Those Marolin are beautiful and hard to find, congratulation on those two.

[Duna]

Very cute lil' figures ... But I like the most the Marolin, of course. You are very fortunate

[Shonisaurus]

My congratulations I really like your two figures of megatherium and iguanodon vintage style. They are very pretty.

[Libraraptor]

Thanks for your kind replies!
Here are some figures and oddities I photographed in good light today:



Bullyland Spinophorosaurus (looking like Schleich Nothosaurus with legs) and Europasaurus.



Megatheria party: Marolin, K&M, two Marx (?)



Two bottom die-plates (do not know how else to call them) taken from the Invicta poster: Glyptodon and Scelidosaurus






Cynodonts meeting: Kaiyodo Trochosaurus, Marx and Panini Cynognathus


Shake hands Megatheria: VEB Plaho and Marolin

[CityRaptor]

Generations coming together.

You know, for whatever reason I always imagine those big sloths to sound like wookies. They probably also think that the Marolin Iguanodon is one of them.

B @Bokisaurus : Actually only the mammals and Tyrannosaurus are hard to find. The rest is currently on Amazon.

Marolin/VEB Plaho Megatherium and Iguanodon. Note that the Iguanodon has ears

My Iguanodon is gray with a red line inside the mouth - are there versions for this item ?

You probably have the newer version of it by Marolin. They are easily available. The unpainted version seems to be from times when the firm was in the German Democratic Republic and its name was VEB Plaho. Have a look at the Megatherium picture. The left one is older and from VEB Plaho, the right one is the younger one by Marolin which you can buy today new on Amazon.

I also have the yellow version of the 'Brontosaurus', green  Tricerstops and red Pterosaur.
I always refered to them as 'Marolin'.
But I thought 'Marolin' is also 'DDR' - isn't it ?
b.t.w.
I saw them also at dejankins.

In the DDR / GDR the firms were owned by the state. Each company had to carry "VEB = Volkseigener Betrieb = Population owned company (due to communism)" in its name. Later in 1992, three years after the GDR joined the ambit of the constitution of the "Bundesrepublik" (West Germany), a company named Marolin, wo had been affiliated by VEB PLAHO in 1974 before they stood on their own feet again in 1992, took the molds of the animals with them. So Marolin does not equal Plaho, the former had been a part of the latter before the latter emanated from the former.

These show that there was a time when Moschops had some real exposure to the paleontological collecting public, an exposure now long gone, as far as I am aware. it would be great to see Safari or CollectA, for instance, to produce a new one.

How big is the Tootsie next to the Marx ? ( if you have one ).
