My Close-to-Retirement Project

[bmathison1972]

I am still about 15+ years away from retirement, but one of my projects is I want to start on, sooner rather than later, is to write a reference book on toy animal (including dinosaur) sets in the modern era (1990-present). There are a lot of references for Marx and earlier stuff, but nothing for the modern era.

I have no idea when I'll start this project or how long it will take, but eventually I will be reaching out to AFT, DTF, and STS forum members for permissions to use images from the forums and blogs!

Wow, that's an ambitious project! You have my support, if you need it.

That's really cool, use whatever of my images you need

[Avian]

That sounds like it would be quite a project! If you want to use any of my figure lists feel free, and I'm sure many of us forum members would love to support you.

Thanks all!!!

I can help you on a lot of insect Pic's!
Man, That sounds like an almost inpossible task ;-)
might be that companies are willing to provide images when given credits.

Thanks Beetle guy; will need you for Sega Beetles for sure LOL

The focus will be sets of small figures, so tubes, box sets, PV/CE/WM sets, gashapon collections, etc. And in the 'modern era' (1990 to present)

Can offer photo's of complete Yujin, DeAgonstini, small and dx sega and bandai, Ikimon/Kitan frog sets and more ;-)
I will photograph what I purge, before I do sell for this effort you are going to make!
