My older brother was a dinosaur fanatic from having grown up in the era of Jurassic Park and other movies/tv shows. He taught this enthusiasm to me. When he found out about the Papo dinosaurs he HAD to buy them for himself and kept his collection up to date each year. When he got married and had a small family to care for with young boys, he decided to sell his Papo dinosaur collection to me to get some extra cash for things they needed and to keep his precious collection safe from storage and from his young boys. Wink He made me promise one thing, to keep it going!

Well as you all know this hobby can get expensive fast! Especially for someone who already pretty much collects... all sorts of things... but I have done my best to grab one or two if I see them on sale and focused initially on the two my older brother missed! Having found them now (the yellow velociraptor and green T rex), with my most recent addition I feel that I have kept my end of the deal up fairly well and can focus on the more recent releases. Anyhow... here is the new running T. Rex I found yesterday and its extended and complete family!
Going for a walk.

Oh, even some dino completists have some troubles to find a few variations and you completed this mini collection. It is very interesting the story behind your Papo Dino Park and that you rescued your brother's collection to warrant the longevity of it.
Great pictures, they seem to be happy in that flowered place. Very Happy

Thanks everyone! Luckily my brother lives in the same town as I do so when he comes over he can see his old Paposaurs on display. He had them all except the original upright green and this new brown walking rex. I think this rex pack enjoyed their short walk outside. Wink
