Love the Kane Figure! What is that Wagner book behind it? Looks D&D-ish.  |

 That is correct. I wish I had many more salas figures.Here is the Medicom zueglodon, which I might have gotten form you. You did get that 'Zeuglodon' from me (it's Basilosaurus--once the name is published, it sticks even if it's original association turns out to be wrong; see also Hyracotherium). Now you just need to hunt down the Gakken whale (appears to be based on a slightly later one, like Zygorhiza):  And if you thought the Medicom was hard to find... |

Ah, but it also comes in two color versions! ;D  |

Ah, but it also comes in two color versions! ;D I had the chance, but couldn't be bothered--I don't do variations (except occasionally dinotales)--it feels like I'm falling for a marketing ploy. In fact, after BIN'ing the Gakken one, I immediately let the forum know about the 'bronze' one; it was bought within hours, so I am assuming that someone here might actually have bought it! |

That mammoth is different, but it's an imperial mammoth. Mine is a wooly mammoth. I also have an imperial (columbian) mammoth that looks like a Salas figure, but it's trunk is raised. I got both it and the wooly mammoth togather, in fact. Neither is like the picture of the mammoth you showed.
I now already have the Gakken whale. What I lack is a new camera. The one I got was the silvery-colored one, not the one with spots.

That Kane book was an omnibus with all the short Kane stories. The scene in front is a recreation of a scene in one of them where he battles an albino smilodon.
About hyracotherium--hasn't the name been changed again, to protorohippus?

About hyracotherium--hasn't the name been changed again, to protorohippus? From what I can find, Protorohippus was synonymized with Eohippus; or has been synonymized with Orohippus; or is a valid genus for at least one species. Either way, it is not the acceptable name (couldn't be--it was published in 1896; Hyracotherium was published in 1840 or 1841). |

Ah yes, "Two Suns Setting", if I recall correctly. Where did you get that Kane figure? I MUST HAVE IT ;D Do you have this book?  It was a posthumous tribute collecting KEW's unpublished works, among other things. I'd like to see more of your ERB and Frazetta collections, too, whenever you get the chance.  |

The Kane statue is one of a series based on Frazetta;'s paintings, which includes deathdealer and some of his Conan paintings. You can find them on ebay sometimes. That book--does that have his Kane stories, or short horror stories?

Great collection, love the auroras, especially the sabre-tooth (this was the first model I ever got when I were a lad!).
What is the small terror bird in front of the "Future is Wild" book?

Post by DinoLord on May 30, 2011 18:04:33 GMT
I believe that it is supposed to represent a Carakiller, a creature from The Future Is Wild that happens to look just like a terror bird. I'm pretty sure that the figure is made by one of the Japanese figure companies, but I can't remember which one.
