After work Target score!

I cleaned out the Clifton Target of all of their Fossil Strikers and found another mini Dimorphodon.

Just left the house for the first non-doctor related time since New Year's Eve as I had to hit Walmart for supplies and found the last two "Jurassic World" Battle Damage releases from 2018 (which had only been found overseas until now).

They were some of the only JW toys in the wrecked toy department so I was lucky to find them.

Not toy related but still geeky:

I have to thank my nephew Daniel for letting me know that a gourmet candy shop in the Willobrook Mall carries "Jelly Babies"!

I haven't had any since our UK trip last year.

There were 2 different brands available so my wife and I bought 1 of each to try (neither was the same brand as the ines we had in the UK). The purple bag even references the candies' popularity due to their appearanced on "Doctor Who" (written as "Dr. Who" on the bag to avoid licensing fees no doubt LOL).

Found one of the original "Jurassic Clash" releases at a little toy shop called "Go! Toys And Games" at the Paramus Park Mall.

The entire store was 50% off sobtheir outrageously high $12.99 price came down to $6.50, $.47 less than Walmart's price for the new "Primal Clash" releases.

Sadly, they only had the one but I grabbed it.

Wow, these are very nice finds! It's nice to see your JP/JW collection grow that fast!

These are my latest purchases from eBay:



I found a seller on eBay who has got a big selection of animal figurines. I had been planning on buying some form him for quite some time now and finally got them. He ships them sealed - as new as you can get them! But see for yourself: I got 5 models from CollectA and 1 from Safari Ltd. And I was impressed how well painted and safely packed they are:




1 Daedon (16cm 1/20 scale) CollectA 88723 - 10,71€
2 Megacerops (20 cm Deluxe 1/20 scale) CollectA 88558 - 12,00€ (best offer)
3 Sulawesi deer pig (Babirusa) 10 cm CollectA 88727 - 5,40€
4 Tadjik screw goat (8 cm) CollectA 88641 - 5,35€
5 Karibu deer (10 cm) CollectA 88709 - 6,25€
6 Tapejara dinosaur (24 cm) Safari Ltd. 284229 - 8,99€
- Shipping: 5,00€
- Total: 53,70€

So I bought these new to support the seller who is very nice and because these animals are extremely hard to find used...




I'm planning on using these for dioramas of Endor and Utapau. I kept my eyes open for less known and ancient living things. If I recall correctly one of our forum members shared a diorama with a Daedon here some years ago. He inspired me to look for these prehistoric animal figurines.
I don't remember who it was, but if you're reading: Thank you!

Huntin'...

...and bein' hunted...

There's always a bigger fish: The rough forests of Endor.



Here's a link to my finished dioramas:

And I found this rotating solar display stand on eBay a couple weeks ago, too!! It was only 4,43€ with FREE sipping from China...and it works!

I added this 1/6 fig to my collection.

Cylon for the win. I so wish we would get new shows of this. I didn't necessarily get into the Human Cylons they had on the last series. Great pick up. Looks brand new.
