A beautiful model, and looks even more stunning in the snow!

It has beautiful details like its tail. Interesting model.

Thank you friends. 

Up next is the safari arctic hare. Always alert...

Never quite certain she is not followed....

Such a lovely hare, so alert in the snow! She looks alive!

Beautiful photos!

Papo? I'm sure that's the Safari figure , but wonderful photos nevertheless

Yeah that's Safari.

Yes, it is Safari, which, in my opinion, is anatomically the best Arctic hare figure.

Oh, that's what I get for posting late at night... it is the Safari figure. My mistake!

Thanks everyone!

Anatomically and artistically, my favorite so far

Thank you Paige for the pics

Yes, that's the Arctic Hare from Safari. Like Blaine said before, it's the best model of this species. It fits really nicely in this environment.

Poor stegosaur, - he is shouting :   MY FEET ARE COLLLLLD  
But great pictures

The hare is totally happy !  
I adore that model also

It was a very cold day indeed Susanne! Thanks everyone!

I spent the weekend cleaning and dusting my collection, it took 2 whole days.   I also realized just how much it has changed over the last year despite (or perhaps because of) the pandemic. So here is a reshowing. Please, if you have any questions for closeups, comparisons, etc. don't hesitate to ask! I am happy to help. I am presenting in roughly reverse order of last time.
First up is prehistorics: full bookcase view

What better way to spend a weekend than dusting a collection- and especially one as amazing as yours!
I am so happy, and so excited and so looking forward to seeing your collection photos- there is something so amazing about seeing a whole world of animals together on shelves!
And wow- what an amazing first set of photos- you could be a collector of prehistoric animals!
I love how you have organised them all, so many stunning models!
And I am really looking forward to the ride, and seeing the rest of your animal kingdom!

Superb collection!!

Very nice collection with nice animals.

I want the AAA dodo. Big Congrats.

And to think I usually say I don't "actively" collect dinosaurs...  In my defense, about 1/3 was "inherited" (my brother's Paposaurs), 1/3 I find at thrift stores for cheap,  and 1/3 (the more interesting portion) I bought full price retail.

Lilias, you always know what to say to make someone feel good.   I hope showing my menagerie is exciting and helpful.

Thank you Taylor and Fernando also! The dodo is truly a great model, if you don't mind it's size.

What a beautiful collection :)

Ohhhh, the feeling when the shelves and models are free from dust, and every model has just been in your hands

What a great collection of dinos, you have !
And a lovely mix of brands, - I see all the "big" brands and some I do not know
There is even food for some of the smaller raptors

Ahh you finished your dusting and re-organising, and it took you 2 days, however I'm having a tidy and due to the fact I am a HUGE perfectionist it's taking more than 6 weeks probably because I'm ordering my collection by manufacturer and not species this time, but still.

Wonderful prehistoric figures Paige! You have a collection where I can't stop looking as I discover new figures each time I look

For not being your active focus, that's quite a nice prehistoric collection! I see you have Safari's best Toobs :)

Thank you Andreas, Susanne, Adam, and halichoeres!

Adam I know the feeling! I am very particular also, or try to be. But I've learned that organization is difficult in this hobby. You kind of just have to learn to be satisfied with your work before you develop an aneurysm.

And halichoeres, yes, as I said a good chunk was inherited and after that... some I just couldn't resist! I have a weakness for certain many nondinosaurians and new species and spinosaurids. Luckily, I realized just before the toobs were retired just how unique the prehistoric crocs, sea life, sharks, precambrian, etc. were! Such weird and magnificent creatures... they had to come to enrich my shelves.

Up next is my aquatics, mostly sealife species. Overview:

These fish shelves have been a nightmare to display as I always feel that I can't see some or they look to cluttered... I have finally reached a compromise where it looks the best it ever has, but someday...

My horseshoe crabs are some of my favorites from this category. I need the CollectA soon!

Shark species have been a project of mine to improve the variety. Just 2 or 3 years ago I only had the basics like whites and tigers. I'd say I've improved...

Bigger rays are hard to see here (safari blue spotted, mojo eagle, schleich manta, AAA brown rays)
