Just before anyone else takes this nice idea and runs with it, I wanted to say that the admin team is in the process of formulating new guidelines for the number of images allowed per post. However, given that all the images in this case are tiny linked thumbnails, I think it's OK to have multiple images on this occasion. In fact, I think it is rather nice! but if anyone else intends to do something similar, please make sure you also go with the linked thumbnails approach. Thanks!

That makes sense :)
Yeah I like the thumbnails, it offers previews of everything all in one place, looks organized, and doesn't take up much space :)
Also, I noticed the new thumbnails update to the Blog Database, and I think it's a terrific update! It will be very helpful :)

ah, ambitious goal ;D But you are on the right track, and yes, much more easier to start it right away as you build your collection that the other way around (photographing after the collection is already built up!) ;D
As many already mentioned, your photos re nice.

Hey, have you checked out the site called Collector"s Quest?
It's a site where collectors create online albums of their collections. Its a nice way to show your collection in an organize way.

thank you! :)

Thanks for the tip! I checked it out and made an account, but I'm going to have to wait for when I have a nice chunk of spare time to set up everything ;D I have other collections I'll probably end up adding in too, so it could take a while ;D

I saw your collection on there though, and it looks amazing! :)

Oh, what are those? They look as though they'd make good customisation material.

Velociraptor from Bandai's "The Dinosaurs Gallery". Found them here: http://www.mugentoys.com/54311240441.html

They're very cool little raptors! Even better if they had feathers ;D

Ok, I spent hours doing the next update!
Here are a few highlights of added figures:

From the Dinosaur Skulls Toob (a little "Now and Then" theme):

And from the Feathered Dinos Toob:
[image] [image] [image]
The baby dinosaurs are so cute ;D

And last, Mojo Parasaurolophus. Not the best figure out there (weird skin texturing), but it's a neat little size, especially for WS Trex fodder ;D

[image] [image]


Also added a couple Collecta's, including the pretty Olorotitan ^^

More additions, including more Collecta's and Papo Spinosaurus.

Spinosaurus is plain AMAZING. I also liked Collecta Ornithocheirus.

I love Kinto/Favorite, I just don't like the paintjobs they come with.

I also love the Favorite collection, I need to focus on getting more of them. I don't mind the paint jobs that much honestly, except for the Spinosaurus. I wish it looked more like their desktop model.

Your collection is really coming along Thundercharge, I don't think I've seen a collection grow quite as fast as yours!

Yeah, some of them don't show off the fantastic molds and detail as well as they could. But I think they do a decent enough job, and still make for some fantastic figures :D Some of my favorites!

Oh, if it was colored that way it would be 10x the awesome! ;D
I'm not the hugest fan of the paint job either, but it doesn't take away from it being an amazing figure and mold :)

Pics of Favorite figures out of their packing coming soon!

Haha thank you! :) The only thing I didn't like about that picture was the Parasaurolophus doesn't seem too alarmed ;D
But I thought these figures were awesome for showing a group attack!

I agree they are pretty cool :) Cool to know someone else has them as well :D


Ok, here's an addition, Carnegie Camarasaurus (an awesome sauropod!):

And their spot in my collection alongside other Jurassic giants:

They may not be the best or most accurate figures ever, but one thing about Schleich Giganotosaurus and Spinosaurus is that they're huge!

Here's Giganotosaurus on the shelf to kinda show how big he is...

A real giant!
