you are correct, NBGI is a Japanese brand
I've never done much research into them, I hadn't known they made anything outside of model kits until I looked them up just now
they seem to be specialized in anime products, and seem to have a lot of iDOLM@STER products, I may look into them more

Yay, congrats, sauroid!  :) Lovely Coloratas... and sometime, somehow, I'll have to get me a flea figure. You know, it's itching me that I still haven't got one... ;D

Okay, so I don't have it 'in-hand' yet, but I've been spending way too much time(money) on Jauce lately and finally won one of my most sought after figures:



I saw one once, when I first encountered Jauce 3/4 years ago, but didn't bid (it was a whole set) and never saw another. Finally, my patience is rewarded! Assuming it makes it to me...

Beautieful and very interesting  :)

sadly I have no idea, I couldn't even find any, just that its the same brand
now that I think about it, I may have a few figures from them, I'll check as I continue to go through my room

^-^ It makes me happy that they finally made another Shoebill figure. Congrats!
I also got it. It's too small for my 1:20 collection, but a wonderful figure anyway. As far as I know the second one ever made :-\.

My CapsuleQ Fox is missing one leg :P ... argh! I had that before with a CapsuleQ turtle.

sauroid

lol Brontodocus. and thanks. :)

nice new additions Jetoar, and great to see you again.


brontodocus

Congrats, Jetoar! :) While I'm not so much into Schleich dinosaurs, lately, I might acquire the Pentaceratops, too.

Sorry for the CapsuleQ fox, Helge... :-\ But the Shoebill is probably not too small for 1:20.  :D I've measured mine at 56 mm height (the real bird is between 1.1 and 1.5 m high) without base and a bill length of 11 mm (original: 19 - 24 cm). If we could stretch out the neck, the body length would probably be approx. 60 mm (original body length 1 - 1.4 m). So for a smallish to medium sized specimen, 1:20 seems appropriate. I've just held it next to the Minimen Andreas Köpke figure and it doesn't seem too small in comparison.

Received my DangerQ arthropods today. Very nice, especially the tarantula (which isn't a very 'dangerous' species). Always happy to get name-brand myriapods (I think I have 8-9 now!).

The current sea turtle set is 8 adults; it's much harder to find the original 2 sets with 4 adults and 4 babies. As such, the babies are much rarer than the adults.

I like the 8 adults box a bit more. http://animaltoyforum.com/index.php?topic=47.msg323#msg323  :)

A small acquisition - a souvenir from my recent visit to the fantastic Museum Koenig in Bonn, Germany. I'll post photos of their amazing dioramas soon.
