my humble collection

[Sparkleopteryx]

Hi everyone, I just joined this group and thought I would share my little collection of dinos I started my collection years ago when I bought the Battat dinos. I recently started collecting again.

You guys have some awesome collections here! I'd like to build mine over time.

Anyway, I just thought I would share my dinos with you...

Take care,
Angie

Hey you have dinos I don't even have! You are very lucky to have those battas! Nice start hope to see it grow!

You're off to a very good start! And you've already got the holy grail of collecting, the battat diplo...

[Sparkleopteryx]

Wow, thanks guys for a great welcome and that you like my little collection:) Yeah, who knew those Battats would be so hard to get so many years later, I'm glad I at least got those 3:)

Thanks so much again!

Hello Angie and welcome to the Dinosaur Toy Forum, you've got a nice collection!

It looks like a nice, easily managed collection -- I'm afraid that they often spiral out of control once you join the forum

What is that orangey hadrosaur in front of the carnegie Ankylosaur? And where can i get me one? Cool collection too.

[kuni]

That's a Safari Anatotitan from the "Sue" series. I think some members have extras kicking around.

It's a nice Anatotitan sculpt for sure. I find it strange that no one seems to make this dinosaur anymore, ever since it was renamed from Trachodon.

Yeah, it's strange indeed... When i was little he was the most famous duck-billed dino (back then it was called Anatosaurus), widely known by the general public and all, and now there's only a tiny yet amazing model to represent him

The Diplo!
What a cool cornerstone already. But beware! We want to see updates at times ;D And, as kuni said, collecting sometimes gets out of control here

[Sparkleopteryx]

Thanks guys! I'm glad you think I'm off to a good start:)

You wouldn't know it from looking at my collection that I am a huge hadrosaur fan! I love those duckbills. Its just I haven't found many sculpts of them that I really like. I was super happy when I tracked down that Kaiyodo Shantungosaurus for cheap.

You are right, that Anatotitan is awesome. MegaRaptor, I found him on Ebay. There is a seller from a toy store that has a bunch for sale. Just do a search of Anatotitan on ebay and you should find him.

I'll try and post updates as I aquire new figures. I'm in awe looking over your collections everyone. Plus you seem like a great group:)

Thanks again!
Angie

Yeah, bloody hell...starting off with the Battat Diplo! When I restarted a few months back it was with a load of Papo garbage. Nice work in getting hold of that one!

[Sparkleopteryx]

Thank you landrover!

Yeah, I lucked out that I started collecting with the Battat Diplo (he was my 1st figure), I bought him when he was newly released and available everywhere a decade or so ago. I wouldn't be able to afford him now though!

It is truly a beautiful figure. I wish someone would attempt making something like it again....
