Hey everyone! Just registered even though I've lurked for some time.. I had previously been collecting dinosaurs and My Little Pony (all gens, though I have since retired from it after 17 years).

I decided to finally pursue collecting animals after I realized I had secretly always wanted to, since I was a kid. It was so exciting to walk into a zoo or musem gift shop and see the display racks of Safari and Schleich, and over the years, every time I saw them, I would always want them, but never pursued it.

I still absolutely love my dinosaurs (mainly Safarisaurs, Collecta, Kaiyodo, and a few PNSO), but as I have a passion for all animals, my focus will be on Cenozoic animals, both extinct and living.

Welcome, it's pretty quiet  around here generally, will be nice to have some new blood. Like you I also started with dinosaurs, 10 years later and now I'm somewhat reluctantly getting into extant animals.

Yes I am/was! I don't remember what my username was (it's been a while  :P ), but I had last posted in the classifieds looking for the Mojo Thylacine (I did eventually find one, though).

Edit: My username over there is apparently Bebo.
