I am bidding on the utahraptor, I have been searching for one of these for ALONG time, I've bid on a few others, but really if it came down to it, the Utahraptor is what I'm really hoping to get, it's one of two figures I still need to complete my collection

I asked my dad to keep an eye on the figures, as I'm out of the country. I hope he got my message and will bid in some. I'd love to have the Parasaurolophus, Euoplocephalus, Styracosaurus, Triceratops, and Edmontonia, though those first three are big on my list.
Also, dibs on DinoLord's collection if/when he tires of it. A man can hope.

Well, there are some flaws on that Battat T-rex (read the listing)....so I don't think it will go as high as it could potentially.....

I love that Maiasaura from Bataat....... Same here, I would say it is probably the best ever produced. I really like the large Kaiyodo one as well though. I doubt I'll have either any time soon.

Hmm... With all of the Battat ornithopods, ceratopsians, and thyreophorans, I'd say so! ;D

Anyone notice that not one but two Bullyland Deinotheriums listed on ebay today? One for a ridiculous $195 the other one - pretty scuffed up - for $20 starting price.
I think sellers have been reading the DTF and heard about the pending Bullyland reissue of its pre-mammals. *LOL*

I may have as well. Out of curiosity, is there anyone here that is going to bid or has bid on any of these? Nope. No desire to bid up the price. If I bid it will be at the last second or not at all. People have to learn that if you bid anytime before the last few seconds all you are doing is driving the sales price higher ON YOURSELF. (Re-read that and think about it for a minute. Why would you bid early and fan a bidding war?) I don't like to put any extra money in a sellers pocket if I can avoid it.

Well, I wont be selling any of my bully mammals until I have new ones in my hands, just to be on the safe side.

I am betting that odds are better than 50% that the reissues will have a new paint job. If that bears out, the value of the originals will remain high. Reissues of original Marx playset pieces brought down the inflated prices of the rarer pieces once they were available as reissues, as collectors that did not care if a piece was a reissue or not if they were using it for dioramic purposesfor example. The originals still command higher pirces than originals, they just found a more reasonable level of value. The originals and the reissues were easily distinguishable from each other-I doubt that the reissued Bullyland pieces would be indistinguishable from old pieces. There will always be those collectors who would still want the old issues over reissued pieces-its a scenario played out in many hobbies/collectibles before-just look at vinyl LP records, rare LPs still retain value even though one can get the music on CD or on the internet.

Says $6 for me. The $30 is probably for international shipping (which can be done for cheaper, but I digress).
