[CityRaptor]

Looks like something out of a movie...or maybe Dino Crisis.

[need4swede]

Thanks!

I was inspired by the scene in JP3 with the raptor hiding behind the liquid reservoir.

[SidB]

You've rejoined the pastime at a timely moment - there's a huge array of quality choices available to the aspiring collector. Enjoy the journey.

[Shonisaurus]

My congratulations on your figure and your artistic photo, I hope to see more figures from your collection.

[Rain]

Haha nice use of the cooling reservoir, I would've never known what it was if it weren't for the ram

Thank you, S @SidB
I'm very excited to be back!

Thank you, my friend! I just updated the post - I'll keep updating it as I get more added.

Haha, thanks! My workstation generally has a very industrial look inside, so it gives it an almost 'factory' like appearance, which is what I was going for. I changed the memory color from white to the orange/red to give it some color alongside the model; worked out quite well, I think!

Welcome to the forum! Looking forward to seeing how your collection evolves as you dive back into the hobby.

New Addition: 'Andrea' the Tyrannosaurus Rex

My favorite in the collection thus far

[Shonisaurus]

My congratulations on your acquisition. That resting tyrannosaurus from PNSO nicknamed Andrea is quite a new figure in toy collecting. There must be very few resting tyrannosaurs made by the dinosaur companies.

[Halichoeres]

Resting poses are a nice change of pace, although I wonder if kids think so.

Thank you, my friends! I completely agree. I wonder if Halichoeres is on to something, if the resting position just wouldn't be too popular among younger collectors. I suspect a lot of younger collectors hopped onboard as a result of JP's cinematic success; I know film and cartoons played a huge role in my own adoption of the hobby. But we are adults now, so I wonder what the ratio of adult collectors to adolescent collectors is currently at. I'm sure Jurassic World is bringing more fans, but something tells me figures like the ones sold by PNSO and the like are more suitable for the adult collector - hence testing the waters with some resting poses, maybe? I know there's a new Baryonyx figure coming out that has a both standing and resting figure option (not sure who makes it); but perhaps we're witnessing the rise of resting figures?

The 'Supplanter' Spinosaurus

By Nanmu

[Shonisaurus]

My congratulations on your new acquisition, for me that spinosaurus from Nanmu Studio is a cult figure along with its other color version, what attracts me a lot about that spinosaurus is that it stands correctly and shifts ... my Nanmu tyrannosaurus one of them is not standing. I like balanced theropods.

[Halichoeres]

That Ceratosaurus has always tempted me, but it's just a bit large for my preferences. Always nice to see it on others' shelves regardless.
