Hey all

[Battatitan]

Hello everyone, once again
You probably know me from both DTF v1 and 2, but if you don't: I'm Battatitan, a collector of the extant and extinct and a keen diorama enthusiast.   
After lurking around for a week or so I couldn't resist to join the ATF any longer. I think it's a brilliant idea, and I can't wait to indulge in the discussions and posts.
I also have some extant dioramas that have been waiting to be uploaded for a while now, so I'll try and share them shortly. I can't wait for the ATF Diorama Contest and it's thrilling to know Safari Ltd have sponsored it 
I look forward to participating in yet another branch of the flourishing tree that is the collection of creature replicas.

Welcome to ATF Battatitan! I wonder - did Battat ever produce any extant animal figures?

Hello again Battatitan and welcome friend  .

[Battatitan]

Thank you everybody for such nice words 

Welcome to ATF Battatitan! I wonder - did Battat ever produce any extant animal figures?

What an interesting thought.... Maybe? Perhaps we should persuade them to give it a try

Welcome over here, Battatitan!
Oh, how dearly I'd like to have the ultra rare Battat Titan Beetle! Unfortunately, it's so rare that it doesn't even exist

Thank you 

Ahahahahaa now that sounds like a beetle and a half!  If, in an extraordinary twist of events, I ever discover one...... we'll all know who named it

You wouldn't even have to discover and describe one yourself, there's also BIOPAT - so for a donation of at least â,¬2600 you could have an entomologist describe a new species with a species epithet of your choice - e.g. battatitani!

Hahaha wow, that's a really cool! Maybe I'll just go for it and splash out on a beetle named after myself. 

And hey Himmapaan, great to see you over here!
