brontodocus' collection

[brontodocus]

Hello altogether,

I'd like to share some photos of my collection with you. I hope you enjoy them.
For the last one and a half year or so I made individual photos of nearly all figures from my collection whenever there was time and whenever I received a new figure. Nearly all of these pictures are in my facebook profile.
To be honest, it would take too much time to upload all these to photobucket and then here. And it would certainly be too much to post each picture here.

So here is the alternative: I will post one or a few representative photos of the corresponding facebook album with a direct link to the album. There is no need to sign up on facebook, though. These links are accessible to everyone.

My albums are not categorized by brand but by higher taxa instead.


This was shot at a time where there still was some space left. And then came Kaiyodo, Colorata, and whatsoever.

O.K., let’s start with some invertebrates:


Kaiyodo Dinotales Series 1 Opabinia.

Kaiyodo Dinotales Series 2 Anomalocaris.

Note: I know that Dinocarida may in fact be arthropods after all.

I am probably not the only person wondering--where do we find the Neko works shark figures? I have never seen a hybodont before!

[brontodocus]

Hi sbell, I bought them here:
www.hlj.com/product/NKWS-17
www.hlj.com/product/NKWS-18
Was about a month ago.

[stoneage]

Wow you have an incredible collection! It's just awesome! You take great pictures! I like your use of rulers and human figures to show size and scale.

[brontodocus]

:)Thanks stoneage, the scale bars are a sort of addiction. Once you get used to them it becomes a fetish.

[foxilized]

WOW, a total pleasure for the eyes!


I like this human figure a lot:

Stole the words out of my mouth!

And brontocodus, absolutely sick collection

[brontodocus]

Hi foxilized, that's the Schleich "Siedler Vater" or Settler Father of the American Frontier Series. Was retired recently but is still much around.
And Cordylus, thanks a lot. It really turned into an addiction soon. I guess you all experienced that as well...

[brontodocus]

Oh, and here is something funny about how I got that Deinotherium and why it looks a bit weathered: I saved it out of the hands of three to five year old children from my son's kindergarten. I asked the nursery teacher if she would trade it for a new Schleich mammoth and she aggreed but asked "Really? That one looked so bad, we wanted to throw it into the garbage soon." Imagine that!

Awesome collection and great photo's, I love the very first photo of the display case, its a great way to display medium figures and to keep dust off them.
Do you have all the retired Schleich figures? I dream of getting them all one day and regret not buying them years ago when they still existed new.

Judging from his pictures it looks like he has the retired plateosaurus, elasmosaurus, iguanadon, and baby apato.

He has a lot more than that judging by his facebook pics.

Hey Bronto, where did you get your old Schleich Spino? It has a different colour scheme to all the other versions I have seen.

So why'd you ask?! ;D

[brontodocus]

Plus a few more: "Saichania", Shonisaurus, adult Apatosaurus, Desmatosuchus, Edmontonia, Edmontosaurus, Stegosaurus, Ceratosaurus (yes, the creepy one), Triceratops, Torosaurus, Baryonyx, "Sauropelta". But there are still some missing, I don't have the Kronosaurus, Deinosuchus, Corythosaurus, Styracosaurus, and many more. But I do not focus on completing them.

I asked Bronto (not you) if he had ALL the retired Schleich figures, as he has not posted all his pics there was no way of me knowing, OK. Now please mind your own business in the future.

[brontodocus]

The spino was in an auction of about 50 or so dinosaur figures. It may be the light that makes it look a bit different but I know the old Schleich Spinosaurus only like this.
