Here's an interesting lot: rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-1751-2978-71/1?AID=5463217&PID=2537047&mpre=http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=130215748449&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=003It may look like a generic Chinasaur lot being dumped by a desperate parent cleaning house, but look closely: there's a Battat ceratosaurus  , Battat gallimimus, Battat utahraptor, the discontinued nesting Carnegie Maiasaura, the Carnegie mosasaurus, the cCrnegie euoplocephalus, the Battat dilophosaurus (paging tomhet  , the Invicta tyrannosaurus, plus many more of the Wild Safari/Carnegie line, not to mention a whole herd of big cats. I was thinking of bidding, but the problem is that the lot weighs a whopping 14 pounds and international postage charges will likely be a nightmare  There's a mystery plesiosaurus, ichthyosaurus, and tylosaurus too, and what is that sprawling grey critter at the bottom of the photo?  Heck, every time I look I find something special |

*Sigh* Now I want this lot If only it didn't contain those two-headed Godzillas and Chinasaurs to weigh it down  |

The Tylosaurus and the Plesiosaurus belong quite probably to the Mech figures.
The figure at the bottom of the pic seems like a Nothosaurus.

Ooh, a nothosaur *Asks seller for shipping charges* ;D Heck, I'm opening a dinosaur store, so the ones I don't need can be considered inventory ;D |

The Mech figures are a miniature set from the 90's, although they may be older than that. I remember I had several of them as a child. I lost them all, but I'm trying to buy them back one by one. They're not particularly well done, but some of the are quite pleasant (i. e. Cynognathus, Mammoth, Plesiosaurus, Tylosaurus, Iguanodon and some kind of terror bird) They still surface now and then on Ebay.

Would you keep the Battats?

Post by piltdown on Apr 20, 2008 2:41:46 GMT
The utahraptor, yes and maybe the ceratosaurus. The galli goes back on feeBay. The dilop--it depends on a LOT of factors. (Emphasis on "LOT" ;D [j/k] )

I don't think I'll win though, I'm not able to put that much money up front, not like sshdlh or zrnic for instance  |

I should have a spare of most of them except (for sure) the Cynognathus., Elasmosaurus, & Stegosaurus (there are a few others). I am actually about to garage sale them in a few weeks, so if anyone else out there is in need of any of them, let me know. I will put up a montage (complete with 80s power ballad...) of the ones I have available. And since I'm already sending Tomhet a package, and he already claimed a search for them, he gets first dibs on them. |
