| I've been wanting to get Papo's brachiosaurus.. I had no idea that Schleich has a similarly sized one! They make a lovely pair, I bet they would look really good as silhouettes for sunset pictures I love dinos but due to space I can only get so many.. Its hard to choose which to get _________________ Jolie

| It's great to watch your collection in another way Blue pics rule I love your Postosuchus familly portrait, I didn't knew yours had so much babies. I also like very much your little red Plesiosaurus, it is gorgeous, what brand it is ? Could you make a pic for TAW ? The Geoworld marine reptiles have more charms than I first thought. The Kronosaurus Mosasaurus have a very pleasant retro look, it could enhance a vintage dino shelf. |

| Thank you very much my friends! Joliezac, the brachiosaurs are nicely sized hence why I kept the Schleich despite it being a bit scuffed. Space is always an issue, but especially with dinos! Kiki my friend, the red plesiosaur has no brand stamp but is made is softer and more pliable rubbery material. If you still want it for TAW I'd be happy to provide a photo. Thank you both for your comments! I made the adjustment to the pteranodon and quetzalcoatlus group photo! I LOVE my new GIANT azhdarchid! Next is the other half of my herbivores!

| Excellent models! I love the Papo stego, what are those dinosaur nests with the eggs? Those are really neat! _________________ Jolie

| Thanks! The nests are another unbranded mystery. I just recently found them thrift shopping. They went with the dinos due to size and I figured they likely went with a play set at some point in the past. _________________ -"I loathe people who keep dogs.

| Very interesting, sweet find! Kind of reminds me of Safari's oviraptor in the nest _________________ Jolie

| I still have a bias for the chubby Safari Ltd stego, I had the green one and it was charming. I only let him go for lack of space. I like very much the pic with the pachycephalosaurus and oviraptors. It looks for me like a Rugby match, the dulls against the discos Yes I would be happy to watch some red plesio pics. If one day you cross the path of his brother, please tell me.

| Thank you both! If I ever find another scarlet plesiosaur I will send him right over to France. :) _________________ -"I loathe people who keep dogs.

| The Papo velociraptors are some of my favorite dinosaur figures, the blue striped one especially. The cryolophosaurus is beautiful! _________________ Jolie

| With these tails they should open a category for whipping theropods. Very good pictures as usual and there is a lot of action going on. |

| Wonderful models! I remember saving up my money as a little kid to get the green Papo rex trio and spinosaurus. They’re still one of the best dinosaur models in my opinion. Really durable too, I took mine to the beach, outside, in the dirt, etc and they still look pretty good! _________________ Jolie

| I'm still kicking myself for missing out on the SR marsupial lion Beautiful figures! I really cannot give Safari's Carnegie mammoth enough praise, it's one of my favorite models. I remember we went to an AC Moore that was closing down and they always have tons of Safari figures. Underneath the racks they have bins with overstock that I would always rummage through. In the very back was the mammoth and it was in perfect condition but had no tag, so the clerk let us have it for $10. At the time it just sat on my shelf because it was my only prehistoric mammal. Now I have a few more and I really love Safari's prehistoric mammals, I really want them to make a baby woolly rhino for the Papo and Safari pair _________________ Jolie

| Wow, all these look great, I like this period. I won't look more at these, I don't want to be tempted. I'm already out of space and out of budget with the small collection of extant animals I have. |

| Another wonderful group, what an amazing smilodon collection, all models of the same animal, but each one created in a slightly different way! |
