Nice pictures, but do edit your posts rather than triple-posting! HONESTLY. A great collection of Carnegies (plus Wild Safari Nigersaurus interloper...thought we wouldn't notice eh?  ). You can see how they've improved over the years, particularly in terms of small details. Looking at the 'anniversary' Tyrannosaurus next to the Spinosaurus, you can see how the eye is much smaller/more realistically proportioned on the latter while still being detailed. |

Sorry, I am pretty new to the site and do not know how to edit my post yet and all that good stuff. There's a button at the top of your posts marked 'modify'.  Also, I've just noticed that there's a Safari Dinosaurs of China Yangchuanosaurus in there too! ;D Nice, they can be hard to come by these days (being discontinued and all). |

Awesome collection, I hope mine can look something like that one day. I love the naturalistic display box for them, if only I had room for something like that...

Yeah, he looked pretty cool and on scale so I grabbed him up. I think it was amazon. You can get a lot on amazon and for cheap usually. Like now they have styraceosaurus for like $5. Before he was not on there and I had to find him else where but now amazon has him. I always check wikipedia to know how large the dino should be. And thanks for the modify thing. |

I am sure you have plenty of room... its called the kitchen table. ;D I don't have a table to eat on anymore... haha Or put it on top of a dresser. It only cost me about $20 or less to setup from home depot material. |

Just got my Wild Safari Stego, Triceratops and Kentrosaurus and all are better than the Carnegie version. I just thru them in the mix of my setup (Diorama they call them?). Alone in your hand they might seem too big but when next to their Carnegie counter parts, you see they are around the same size (almost exactly) but just with far better detail. Nice.

Wow I haven't been in this forum for a while...glad to see this thread is such a sleeper hit. For anyone wondering about the poster, it was all over North America during the 90's in museum shops and that sort of thing, and it does go along with the models.

Yeah! someone else with multiple Giganotosaurus figures! I feel so normal. My wife was commenting on why I have two. And I said I need at least two. They probably hunted together to bring down such large Titanosaurs. Now I need a large titanosaur....and more giga's
