Frank08’s Collection and Recent Acquisitions

[frank08]

Hello everyone at the toy forum. A lot of people have been making posts of their recent acquisitions so I thought I'd hop on the train and make a thread of my newest figures! @Halichoeres @WalkingWithBeasts @Nanuqsaurus! Since you might like this thread, I hope my little roll call wasn't too annoying.

Since this thread is about my recent acquisitions, here are some of those.

Toyway Tyrannosaurus. This figure makes me smile. I genuinely like it.

Collecta Bistahieversor (far left), Collecta Alioramus (far right), Bullyland Europasaurus (middle). I like all of these figures. The Europasaurus is my most recent figure. If you want one, then here you go: https://www.ebay.com/i/203015491186?chn=ps&norover=1&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-213727-13078-0&mkcid=2&itemid=203015491186&targetid=4581046486094194&device=c&mktype=&googleloc=&poi=&campaignid=395665087&mkgroupid=1239149814203389&rlsatarget=pla4581046486094194&abcId=1129776&merchantid=51291&msclkid=41e10447ea0e15b9cbeb5ab437b63f6e I'm honestly surprised it hasn't sold yet. I bought mine off Dejankin's Dinosaurs, but it was the last one. I will sometimes post deals.

Papo Quetzalcoatlus. It was for a cheap price on eBay and when I first saw it I though "Papo Quetzalcoatlus", but when I got it, I realized that the mouth doesn't move! I fear it might be a bootleg, but I'm still keeping it as it is a good figure.

Kaiyodo Acanthostega. This was my first Kaiyodo figure and to date I only have two. I will collect more.

Kaiyodo Lystrosaurus. I like this guy.

Nice pickups, I assume that WWD Tyrannosaurus cost a pretty penny.

[frank08]

@Bread strangely it didn't! It only cost 14 dollars! But the shipping was about may 20 to 30 dollars, but the wait was well worth it! It was the only one on eBay and for such a cheap price, I did a little happy dance before clicking "Buy it Now". If you want the Bullyland Europasaurus, then you can buy it from the link I gave. Let me know if you want me to do more group photos to showcase my pickups.

[Libraraptor]

Nice collection so far!

[frank08]

Thank you @Libraraptor! If you want the Bullyland Europasaurus, then you can buy it from the link I put. I will certainly grow my collection a lot more, and I will also post more photos of older toys along with my recent acquisitions.

[Halichoeres]

Great start! Shame about the bootleg, but it happens, especially with Papos.

Luckily, I do have the Edaphosaurus. A point of honor for someone living in Germany. I had bought it back then when it was in stores originally
Keep the pictures coming, I am always highly interested in other collections. Mine is said to be somewhat quirky, I collect without aim or focus, just what I like (and can afford, for that matter...)

[frank08]

Don't worry, I will keep them coming.

When I was at Target, I picked up these Battat figures. The Acrocanthosaurus, Amargasaurus, and the Carnotaurus.

The new ones go well with the rest of my Battat collection. Are they all 1:40? I have some good challenges for you. Try to name all the figures in that shot. There is also one imposter. Name the imposter too.

Hey look! A new box! I wonder what it is? It says "Philon Nuts" but what's in here definitely isn't nuts. It's roaring! It's a.................

Toyway Torosaurus! It's very nice and cool! I think it's one of the best Toyway figures out there but again, I haven't gotten the Postosuchus yet...... but this Torosaurus is a lot better than the Schliech Torosaurus.

[Bread]

Nice Battat figures. I saw the Amargasaurus at Target once, went back the next day and it was gone... I haven't seen it in my local target ever since. I regret not picking it up.

@Bread, don't give up my friend! Eventually you'll find it! But can any of you name the imposter in the Battat image?

[CityRaptor]

Yep. I even have it myself. Carnegie Amarga. Not so much an imposter but rather wandered into thewrong crowd.

[frank08]

@CityRaptor interesting, I've never seen my Carnegie Amargasaurus wandering before. Maybe he followed his Battat counterpart. He's a nice little imposter.

[WalkingWithBeasts]

The Battat Carnotaur looks very similar to the DK one

[frank08]

Cool! I guess now I have a DK Carnotaurus! I will need some suggestions for dioramas. I want to make a diorama based off the Cretaceous China. I already have a Wannanosaurus on the list. So which other dinosaurs should I showcase. Note: they have to be from Cretaceous China. I'm also thinking about including a Microraptor. Since I had to ship from UK to get my Toyway figures, shipping costs are the stuff of nightmares to me.
