I have a significant portion of the Safari, and Battat collections. I also have a few of the Schleich figures that were unique, Most of the original Royal Ontario Museum colection, a few Invicta/British museum pieces (one painted) most of the small Playvision prehistorics of the aquatic reptile/prehistoric amphibian line, one Toyway Polacanthus, a number of Bullyland prehistoric mammals, an AAA enteledont, a Papo Mammoth, a Kentrosaurus from Tyco, a Resaurus Giganotosaurus, and some Kaiyodo and Prehistoric Panorama figures.
I mostly try to find unique species (to scale, if possible) rather than complete collections.
That's it.

"rather than complete collections" Sensible! My strategy is that I restrict myself (these days anyway) to marine reptiles I don't have the space or money to collect entire collections... (I did the same with star wars collectibles, I restricted myself to bounty hunters only) Sounds like you have a fine collction by the way

*Feels envious of jhudstone's Playvisions prehistoric amphibian and reptile line* I gave up on doing complete collections too (except the WWD line), it doesn't seem sensible to collect a figure just because a manufacturer releases it and has "Collect them all!" as an adverstising slogan ;D

Oh dear, it does appear I did forget about the Papos The spinosaurus is not going to be happy about this Though Papo's prehistoric line does include two troglodytes, so technically my collection isn't complete--but I don't do synapsids anyway ;D
