Acrocanthosaurus – Fauna Figures

FigureFrenzy 296 Acrocanthosaurus, Redfin, Sea Lion, Wolverine

We're going all over the place today! The only thing that unites them is that I have them all...let's go! Nayab/FUL/Lontic Sea Lions It's a trio of Sea Lion figures. The two small ones are from the same set, and could be two different sea lion species (California sea lion and Steller's sea lion) while the big one is more clearly a Steller's sea lion.
