Holy moses! €6 per CollectA? Out store sells them at $4.99 CDN right now! Other than deluxes of course.
Due to price changes, they may need to go up to $5.99. But still, that's like half the price!

There is virtually no to store selling them in France. It's all Papo and Schleich. Urzeitshop sells the regular ones at €5.90 (not the deluxe or the very small ones of course). Btw it's not a 50% difference, rather 20 to 30 depending on the exchange rate. With the £ being quite low too, I try to get some from the uk as well. |

Hello, I also collect CollectA figures. I must say CollectA figures range from beautiful and very accurate to ugly and wrong ones. But their overall quality is improving and the 2012 figures look fantastic. Here is my collection to date   Ampelosaurus and Australovenator.   Plateosaurus and Alamosaurus   Attenborosaurus and hydrotherosaurus   Liopleurodon and parasaurolophus baby   Olorotitan and eotyrannus   Iguanodon and kelenken   Dacentrurus and rhomaleosaurus   Tyrannosaurus Rex and pteranodon   Baryonyx and torosaurus   Hatzegopteryx and nothronychus  Irritator Most figures are in a 1:50 or 1:60 scale and quite affordable (€6 / figure). The scale figures are mostly in 1:40 scale and go well with Carnegie, Papo or Schleich figures. The rhomaleosaurus and kelenken are 1:20 and are both huge. The rhomaleosaurus tag said 1/40, i hate it when they lie |

The rhomaleosaurus tag said 1/40, i hate it when they lie So do I ! I really love the rhomaleosaurus because it is a truly beautiful figure, but assuming it's actually a 1/40 figure, this animal would have been over 12 meters long (nearly 36 feet). So I think this one is rather 1/20 or 1/25, unfortunately. It looks a little goofy next to the other collectA marine reptiles. Still love it though ;D |

Good stuff! My favourite CollectA figure is the Jobaria.
I consider the CollectA Eustreptoespondyulus figure to be one of, if not THE worst, figure of a dinosaur ever made. It looks like it's wearing false teeth.

Took my Crylo to School with me yesterday, I only had two classes to attend, however they were separated by a long time gap. So i thought I photograph him during my free time.  Here he is, on the students lounge table  here he is watching TV on said table  Now he is doing my math homework  with the help of a calculator, (that little cheater)  then he was watching me work on a Computer  until he got side tracked by the snow, then he asks me to take him out.  after my classes were done, i took him out as he asked.   before long, the freezing cold temperature was stinging my ears. so we had to go back in to wait for our ride home. |

It looks like it's wearing false teeth. agree ! CollectA has the largest range by all standards ! Some of their figures are so beautiful and some other are among the ugliest on the market ;D |

I'll be in dino toy heaven if that is so ;D
Just think of the obscure species that CollectA has done in the past, and imagine them getting new sculpts....
