Dino-tail Annex -Figures-
Many dinosaur figures are sold by various figure manufacturers.
They can be purchased at dinosaur exhibitions held somewhere every year, museum shops, online shopping, and toy stores.
Some items are no longer for sale or are difficult to obtain due to limited quantities, but I am happy that a wide variety of figures are available.
My Collection of Figures

A skull fossil of Apatosaurus ajax is exhibited on the B1 floor of the Earth Building, National Museum of Nature and Science. This is a figure of the Apatosaurus, a reproduction model from the museum's collection.
Brachiosaurus
A 1/50 scale reproduction of the sauropod Brachiosaurus.
Carnotaurus
The ferocious figure of Carnotaurus, also called the "meat-eating bull" because of the horns on its head, is sculpted. The texture of the tongue is amazing.
