    Dinosauria: Euoplocephalus maquette

    I'd LIKE to be a completist with the line, but I came in too late and simply WON'T pay $700-$1,200 for the earlier pieces on E-bay... >_< I can only be as complete as possible from here on out... I hope the Dilophosaurus is spectacular!

    Dinosauria: Stegosaurus

    They say that misery loves company and I don't want to step on any toes, but I do feel a little better knowing that I'm not the only hardcore Dinosauria collector that got toasted on this deal... Who knows, guys, maybe they'll have a full adult with her nest and this was just a preview... How...

    Dinosauria: Euoplocephalus maquette

    Damn straight. I've been faithfully purchasing these $200+ pieces since I became aware of the line with Proto vs Velo and yeah, I'm pretty pissed that I missed my shot in less than 24 hours just because I can only access the Internet during the week when I come into town for work... Thanks...

    Dinosauria: Stegosaurus

    Whatever, I just got the e-mail yesterday morning, didn't actually read the e-mail until this morning, (I can only access the Internet when I come in town for work since I live in BF, Idaho), and guess what? They're sold out already!!! How many pre-orders were scooped up by re-sellers just so...

    Dinosauria: Stegosaurus

    Agreed. I'm no longer pinning my hopes on Sideshow to deliver... It's too bad, too, since the overall quality in the pieces I have collected so far is pretty impressive as far as I'm concerned... Oh well... It just means I'll finally get around to purchasing pieces by Krentz, Foulkes, etc...

    Dinosauria: Stegosaurus

    I pre-ordered near the end of September and the schedule then said 2/20 for the first payment... They may have pushed it back before then, though... I don't know... :dunno

    Apatosaurus Maquette

    Have a great holiday weekend fellow Dinosauria collectors! (And here's hoping that we get to see a new dino in the 12 days of Sideshow previews this year)! :pray:

    Apatosaurus Maquette

    I just looked at the last two years and there were no Dinosauria pieces previewed during the 12 days... BTW, does anybody else have any opinions on the Stegosaur's head? Am I just crazy? Yeah, I would LOVE to see another big predator. The only piece I have so far is the Spino, which is...

    Apatosaurus Maquette

    Got it and guess what? She's PERFECT!!! Not a spot, blemish, or broken tail... Whew... :yess: :clap Blade, it sounds like you know a lot of these sculptors personally, it's too bad you can't find out more. I agree that variety in the styles of sculpts are important and all of the pieces have...

    Apatosaurus Maquette

    My Apatosaurus will indeed be here tomorrow! I hope the tail's OK... Has anyone heard anything about what may be coming next after the Stegosaurus? I know we won't be seeing her for quite a while, but I'm dying of curiosity for whatever is coming after.

    Apatosaurus Maquette

    Well, here's another seller I'll never buy from... Good lord... https://www.ebay.com/itm/Sideshow-Tyrannosaurus-Rex-Maquette-T-Rex-Statue-Dinosauria-MINT-/320810904185?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4ab1d1ea79 :horror:cuckoo: My last flex payment for my Apatosaurus comes out today! :yess...

    Apatosaurus Maquette

    Yeah, there's a seller (customsbylisa) that likes to sell her Dinosauria pieces for $824 and change. That's what I mean when I say the price is artificially inflated. There's no research to see what these things are going for, they just put an obscenely inflated price up there to see if they can...

    Dinosauria: Stegosaurus

    Out of the three pieces I have in hand so far, only the Protoceratops VS Velociraptor Diorama had damage, (just a small piece of the tail feathers flaked off), but it was an easy fix and the fault line's invisible now. I'm stressing a little bit about my Apatosaurus coming soon, and the more I...

    Apatosaurus Maquette

    That's what I had to do. As much as I want all of the sold-out pieces, I'd rather ensure that I get the in-stock ones at retail first, rather than pay the obscenely inflated prices later... Honestly, I couldn't do anything else with the flex-pay option making them so much more affordable for my...

    Apatosaurus Maquette

    Hey Matthewsin, Join the club... I've just acquired the Proto VS Velo Dio, Spinosaurus, Styracosaurus, and my Apatosaurus is coming next week, all within the last month or so. Every single one of these pieces are so beautiful and scientifically accurate (relatively speaking, but nevertheless a...

    Dinosauria: Stegosaurus

    Does the Flexpay schedule have anything to do with when it's actually released? I pre-ordered mine a couple months ago, the payments start in February and end on May 20th... Is it reasonable to assume that they staggered the flex payments back from late May because that's when it's expected to...

    Apatosaurus Maquette

    Don't look at the active auctions, look at the completed listings. Customsbylisa did find a couple of suckers to buy her Dinosauria pieces at a Buy it Now price of 824.95, but most go unsold. The going price for bidding auctions is still around 300-400 depending on the piece, but it looks like...

    Apatosaurus Maquette

    All these tail breakages are making me nervous, but do I need to worry much if it's just coming 1400 miles north? My Spinosaurus was perfect, but even my Proto vs. Raptor dio had a few of the tail feathers flaked off... (Good thing I'm also a modeller that's very used to cyanoacrylates)...
