They're not too bad but the newer one (on the right) seems like a step backwards.
It's all in the lighting and Photoshop manipulation to get balance.

I'm still waiting on the postal service to hurry up my deliveries, but this month I bought the new safari velociraptor, the carnegie giganotosaurus and dilong. also I just bought a small bronze afrovenator the one I'm waiting for above all those though is the x-plus albertosaurus I won on ebay. in the picture it appeared to be unpainted, so I plan on having some fun painting it myself. I can post pictures when I'm done if you like :3 |

I BOUGHT THE CARNEGIE GIGANOTOSAURUS AND AMARGASAURUS OFF OF EBAY!!!
YAAAYY!!!
After a week riddled with losses, I had nothing else to lose. I bid on tons of Carnage (Not Carnegie) articulated dinosaurs, and lost every single one after they were sniped at the last, you read it. LAST, final second.

So, umm, is $6 a good price for a Battat Tyrannosaur? eBay auctionI thought it might be so went ahead and bought it. It comes with a nice Safari Allosaur too, with shipping to me here it was $13.59 total.  |

Also, here is a pic of my latest eBay wins to show up. They took a long time and the seller was nice and threw in an extra dino, it was just the MPC ones originally. Turns out the extra is a Starlux Iguanodon. I love it, especially the way it balances with the tail off the ground. I've never had a Starlux in hand before and am now totally hooked. I like the hard plastic and the molding and coloration are really nice too. If anyone has any extra Starlux you are willing to part with get in touch.  |

Just so you know--that Iguanodon with the tongue stil attached is pretty uncommon--Starlux are notoriously fragile, especially little bits like that (the sloth tongue and the Synthetoceros horns are other examples). Oh, and the "rat-like" thing is Ceratogaulus, a horned mylagaulid rodent (guess what I studied for my MS?). |

I got news from England - my odd plesiosaur arrived, and also my Playvisions marine reptile set (can't wait to get my hands on that!) and a book I ordered - Encyclopedia of pterosaurs. Why must I be a flight away  |
