Hello all! I'm happy to have found the HobbyTalk forums. Traditionally I've been a collector of paleontology toys and action figures, but over the past few years I've (happily!) been expanding into models. I wanted to ask if anyone had any dinosaur or paleo-critter model kits available for sale. To be more specific, I'm not looking for the more generic older kits (Aurora, Revell, etc.) but resin or vinyl kits from brands like Horizon, Tamiya, PaleoCraft, or garage kits. I plan on assembly and display rather than keeping them mint in box, so partially built, open box, or even incomplete kits would be great too!

And if anybody has some dinosaur toys kicking around they'd want to get rid of, feel free to PM me for that too! Thanks everyone!

Hi WebDragon and welcome to Hobbytalk:wave:.
Have you checked out the Clubhouse? They have a dedicated forum for paleontological kits and some of the worlds best dino sculptors and builders hang out there. Guys like Shane Foulkes, Martin Garrett, et al.
My son is a dino kit collector and builder and that's where he finds most of his kits. At the moment he's collecting the excellent Cretaceous Creations dinos.
It's well worth checking out....

I have the following 1/35 scale Kaiyodo models that I may sell.
I paid around $50 each but I will let all three go for $100 shipped USA.

Thanks everyone! PMed you back Dino Lynn Bob, and Auroranut thanks for your great suggestion. The Clubhouse isn't registering any new members at the moment, so I can't wander around their boards :( But I'll keep it bookmarked and hope that I can register soon!

Here are the Darga Dino pics as requested.
