I really like the human figure  . Is that 1:22.5 / LGB scale? Looks a little like an unpainted Preiser figure but I can't recall to have seen it before. Do you know a source where to get it (or if it's a Preiser figure: do you have the item number maybe)? |

Beautiful model  wow finally an actual pic of the kinto parasaurolophus skeleton. im actually surprised by the honking effect that they have given it. You cant tell its positioned that way in the photos. Mine will be here on friday i cant wait. May i ask the actual length of the figure theres a few different ones mentioned by different sites. Im so glad you posted it. Hi wheezy - happy to meet you. You are the one who gave me without knowing the Terakoshi hint, the guy who designed the beautifully coloured Para in your logo. I could finally manage to buy a book full of his art - brilliant - Thanks for this! As for the skeleton - it measures 53 cm from its "honked" snout to its tip of the tail in one line. The glass on which the skeleton is mounted has 50 cm. When I opened the package of this one I was at first a bit disappointed because of the "honking effect" (good term ) but the more I looked at it the more I liked the pose and decided to keep it - it's a wonderful piece ;D. Congratulations! Parasaurolophus is also one of my favourites (I must admit there are lots), did you buy one of Angie's? I did - a really lovely figure - Recommended! |

It's in 1:20 (since the rex is in this scale too) - see pic I found it on eBay, searching for "1:20" and "figure". I think the seller offers it regularly - can't remember his name. Attachments:

I'm always looking for affordable human figures in different scales. |

Hi postsaurischian, Welcome to the forum and you have a great collection. Putting my admin hat on for a moment though, when you post multiple images, please can you include them all in one post rather than creating a separate post for each. Thanks |

Everytime I try to attach a second pic in one post, the first one is substituted and disappears. You sure have a clue what I'm doing wrong . |

Thanks I think the issue is that they are being attached, as opposed to embedded as images. postsaurischian, you need to create an account with something like Picasa or Flickr (or Photobucket, or whatever) and they will allow you to create embedded links to your photos. |

Once you've had a decent sleep (and I did last night - 10 ruddy hours, dreams about flying and everything), here are some websites you may wish to consider registering at. photobucket.com/ - the one I use. www.flickr.com/picasa.google.com/Any of those sites will let you register for free and upload photos. For free. Once you've uploaded some pics to those sites you can link to them here. For example I uploaded this charming picture to Photobucket. Its URL is img.photobucket.com/albums/v484/Makron1n/Darwin3-1.jpg. However by wrapping IMG tags around that (ie. [ /i mg], but without the space) I can make it appear like so.

I dont have access to a paypal account to order it from shapeway but really want it. i can only use a money order. I tried to contact her on here but no response from her. tried to see if dan could get me one but still no luck. can you translate the cm to inch for me my tape measure only has inches. Your welcome i guess on the terakoshi hint. How much was the book? im trying to get the new para he added to my avatar to fill in the gap but having problems. |

Look Stoneage, one is an English gent in a smoking jacket (even though he's, er, an American species of dinosaur), full size, and the other is just some rubbish JP action figure dressed in a bonnet. There is no similarity. Ever. DO NOT INSULT DARWIN!

Look Cordy, I was simply trying to be derisive as he was comparing it to The Mighty Darwin - a full-sized Allosaurus animatronic in a smoking jacket who has a butler and sings a version of the Eton Boating Song that mentions eating people. Darwin is all kinds of awesome.

I don't understand anything about this and don't have a clue what to do. I'm going to bed - bye . Hi postsaurischian, I hope you don't feel aggrieved. There is also a thread on how to post pictures here: dinotoyforum.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=feetback&action=display&thread=126We all had to learn that image posting is a bit more difficult and works best with an account at an image hoster. I use photobucket.com - if you are considering to create a photobucket account and have any questions you can also send me a personal message in German. It has other advantages to post a direct link to a web photo as well: you won't have these small thumbnails anymore that can only be seen in full size when you're logged in. So please feel encouraged to create a free image hoster account and you'll certainly enjoy posting pictures more, it's more convenient. I'm sure I'm not the only one who'd like to see many more photos of your collection in the future. |

photobucket is quite simple but it did take sometime to learn it when i first started out. It really simple now. simply save your photos and remember where you stored them on the pc. now create an account name and password on photobucket. once you do that an upload image icon should be on the screen. Click on it then click browse. Look for the photo you save wither in the desktop or pictures and click the title. then click the upload key. the pic will then download onto the sight and now click the save button. to get them onto her just put cursor over the pic you want to download scroll down to the img code and left click and highlight it then copy. then come back here and click paste where ever you wish to put it.

Good morning - this is a test:  I hope I can see my Kinto Stegosaurus now between my lines. |

. Is that 1:22.5 / LGB scale? Looks a little like an unpainted Preiser figure but I can't recall to have seen it before. Do you know a source where to get it (or if it's a Preiser figure: do you have the item number maybe)?
. It's in 1:20 (since the rex is in this scale too) - see pic
