Congratulation Tylo, I like very much eclectic collections And your's is no doubt an eclectic one

Good luck for the Shane Foulkes Tylosaurus, it would be bad to miss it

I missed myself the Geenemodels shunosaurus and it is still a splinter in my collection

Many thanks many Merci Monseur!

Wow. You have an amazing collection. The dinoriders are awesome. I love the way you display them in the cabinet. I also love your orchid collection and the dinosaurs you display with them. Congratulations on the article in the paper. It must have been really awesome to be in there with your collection. Thanks for sharing.

Many thanks aandmkw Yes that were thye days they say hehe Was a long time ago though it was May of 1989 if my memory serves me correctly, thus ages ago xDDD

Back then such large collections were a rare sight but nowadays look around ya, everyone is doing it Yet I do find it amazing that every collection no matter the size is different also has a different way of displaying it, this is quite interesting to some point.

The cabinet is from IKEA , here a few that are similar to the one I have they do have the same layout as glazing goes:

Never seen a Spino model with this wonderful color scheme hah! Always a must have

They're technically depicting the same animal (both made by Favorite), just the plastic version is a cheaper version intended for kids, and the resin is for adult collectors. If you look closely you can see the similarities in the sculpt

Anyway glad to hear you got what you were looking for

I wish the Favorite Deinonychus was as easy to find in UK though D:

Congratulations they look fantastic! :) But then if possible, it would be nice to see pictures of the real thing.

Sure I just bought them yesterday the orange one which will be my Mascot for the Dutch Soccer team haha Normally I don't care much of football BUT when my country is gonna play obviously I am for them all the way

And the other will replace the Schleich Spinosaurus which I will be selling with the Schleich Kronosaurus for any Schleich fans around here.

Just grabbed this awesome Tylo today!

The Steve Foulkes model is really nice! But, your orchids are exquisite! What's your secret to keeping them so great?

Congratulations Tylo, the Japanese replica is great!

That is an absolutely fantastic Kaiyodo tylosaurus

CONGRATULATIONS with this great addition

Every week I give them a bath under myn kitchen tap in the sink for about 5 minutes I let them saturate for that moment then I refresh the water in their pots and place them back where I have them :)
I have about12 orchids now the oldest I have just over 3 years :) It takes about 2 to 3 hours to give them this caring treatment but the end resultdoes show it's qualities

You are very welcome

Those orchids are looking lovely by the way I am sure they're growing well under your kind care

Is that a dragon next to the new Safari Stego? :O

yaaaps xDDD The McFairlane Clan 2 Water Dragon and the other one on the far left next to the CollectA Steggy is the McFairlane Clan 3 Water Dragon :)

I never thought before how nice would be to collect Steggies. I confess I thought only in collecting ceratopsians but an abandoned project. :)
Congratulations for your new Steggy gift and I think it is the first time I see the Colorata Tuojiangosaurus! For your info Miragaia is a Portuguese Steggy.
