    @gazpacho - Great shot!
    @paulk - I was super broke when you had your sale so I missed out, and had to bite my tongue/break my fingers when I saw those super deals, but that story warmed my heart!

    here's my new buddies, after many months of holding back.

    ^ Such gorgeous paints on those new dinos! Happy for you, a little jealous, and way curious about what the rest of the batch looked like.

    Very! The M-afia sent this teaser pic around a few weeks ago:

    Fully painted pretties were promised.

    No clue if this sale was a M-afia exclusive or just another in-store that they had access to.

    Interesting and interestinger! :shock: Thank you Deevis! :D
    Hmmm... are those two shades of green vinyl? They look different from the originals?

    The top three are the milky green vinyl that came out at the same time as the creme dinos; the other 8, pale green inclusive, are leftovers from the GID releases.

    Yeah, the whole line on these came out of the blue and was very strange indeed. I would be very interested to know the full story, though I doubt we ever will. Buying a 'blind' offered toy like that really paid off in this instance, as those painted dinos are gorgeous. Alas, if only it hadn't had to come from that source. A beautiful trio you picked up @Fedhai, congratulations! I really love the colours on these, and they seem executed quite well too, whoever did them. Always love Edmontonia, but in that 'Tokyo' colour scheme, he is so tasty.

    If anyone else managed to grab some of these, please do share, I would love to see what other paints are out there.

    IIRC the OG blog post said the new dinos were to be sold by phone during two hours one afternoon.

    More pics are found on Instagram.

    A friend requested something Butascopic. Here's some initial variations:

    I am not on nearly enough drugs for these. That is probably unfortunate.

    Also, beware of seizures.

    Very nice man! It is honestly making me sad how little we get to see new Buta figures on here anymore with the significant loss of any 'international' venues from which to purchase them. I am sure I am not the only person on here really feeling the pain the last couple of years with the way the retail pipeline has dried up. :(

    I am pretty sure that I have never gotten a Buta at less than third hand, so the trickle down thing really hurts. It has always been tough, it's just gonna get to be more of a "prove your love" exercise I think. But hey, I'm wrong a lot.

    Oh, that pearl-muncher is just so lovely, Grace! Man, it stings even more now to not have one of these fellas coming to see such wonderful shots of them. I am happy at least some very luck SBers got a lead on some of the new Buta toys, but boy I wish it weren't such a minefield (and costly) to navigate.

    Titanus is really useful for swooping down on unsuspecting chocolate lumps and making off with them!

    But, they have a very high level of sugar craving, so candy is often not enough

    They do like baths!

    Thank you @ted kopper ! Birdie arrived safe and sound, in time for a snack and bath :D

    p.s. the thing about unbagged toys, is that they force you to play with them....:oops:;)

    p.s. that blue base vinyl for Gigasu and Mechara is really pretty! It reminds me of those blue glo ice pops I ate as a kiddie.
