I have spent the last 15 days or so binge-watching your videos! I am really drawn to PNSO's and HLG's ceratopsian range for my first purchase. As a complete beginner to the hobby, would you recommend one over the other? Ideally, I would like to purchase some from each of the brands but the way shipping works, it will be a lot easier to just get all from either PNSO or HLG.

[@michaelkawano1951]

Fun videos! Why don’t you like the Haolonggood Pachy? That one is actually one of my favorites.

[@DinosDragons]

You know it's weird. I am not sure it's because of the way it's painted, or just those horizontal pupils which I used to like, but seem to have become less fond of with time. But I guess it's simply that I love the PNSO one so much, that it takes up all my love lol!

[@gw3ns_add1ction]

i think its super cool that you donate your models to charity. makes a lot of sense with the haolonggood models as well.

[@DinosDragons]

Thank you, but yes! I think it is far more meaningful than putting them in a box somewhere, where it's nice to know I have them, but otherwise not really get to touch them. Paying it forward is a good philosophy in Life!

[@Mr-spiclypeus]

Why not get the beasts of the mesozoic ceratopsians?

[@DinosDragons]

The BOTM are very good articulated action figures, but I would not consider them models. Good articulation requries many joints, which interrupts the form of the animal more than I like, and because of how patterns and colours are painted on, there is essentially just one position that allows uninterrupted colours and patterns. I do have a couple, the smaller Triceratops and the Spiclypeus but I consider them separate from my dinosaur models.

[@MrRajithasandaruwan]

Wow, I always wanted to look into your collection, and I'm so thankful for you, my dear sir. For making my dreams come true. As I always say, I consider you to be my mentor. Back in the day, collecting dinosaurs and prehistoric mammal figures was just another hobby for me. Even though I do not have a huge collection, I still try my best to buy at least one or two figures once in a while. As you know, it's quite hard to buy figures because of their prices. So I try my best to keep up with the rest of the world. But you ignited that fire in me with your knowledge and passion. Now, this is not just another hobby for me. I'm learning a lot from you, and I'm so thankful for everything you do. Please keep it up, and I wish you all the success. You are the best. 🖤

[@DinosDragons]

Wow thank you for your kind words as always! I am happy to learn that you enjoy watching my content, although from comments you have made I believe you are being rather too modest in terms of knowledge... you already know plenty! I hope that more people will let their love of dinosaurs and models of dinosaurs spur them on in learning more about the science behind these magnificent animals. I hope that your collection, while slow-growing, will also bring you plenty of joy. I sometimes feel that when you have a huge mass of models, it's easy to get a bit blurred and jaded with that huge mass in front of you. While having a smaller, more focused concentration lets you really enjoy and appreciate each one better!

Спасибо за видео. Но почему Вы плохо сказали о haolongod pachyrhinosaurus ? И почему убрали его с полки? У нас это один из любимых динозавров . Всегда смотрели Ваши видео, но сейчас это нас растроило. Надеюсь, что Вы вернете его на полку.

[@DinosDragons]

Good day and thanks for your support! We all have our likes and dislikes, and somehow with the HLG I didn't like. I'm not saying it's no good. If you watched my original review, I have good things to say about it. But when shelf space is limited, I have to choose my favourites, and leave out those I am less fond off. It's still a good model, but I just prefer many of the others much more. Should I have more space in future, I will put it in, and definitely display more of these wonderful models!

[@yccp3]

@@DinosDragons Спасибо за ответ.

[@Dinoramascuplts-Tyrex]

I put up a video, though I don’t think it was in the original timeline lol, I painted up a Furcatoceratops, a nasutoceratopsine if you haven’t heard of it. Love your videos dude, I like the science you usually put into them.

[@DinosDragons]

I like it! Okapi colours are nice to see. Just a suggestion: if you have a touch to focus on your screen, then your videos would look even better. Especially with art tutorials, it makes it easier to appreciate the colour and see your strokes as well.

[@Dinoramascuplts-Tyrex]

@@DinosDragons I agree this was earlier on when I was still learning, haven’t really done anything since painting paper wise but I hope too

[@SiamSentin3l]

I loved your videos! I feel like the joy and wonder of my four year old son in you, but I also relate to the enthusiasm for progress in academic knowledge and fine art in you. What a wonderful combination and relaxing video to enjoy in an evening after work! And placing even more orders for more models :D

[@DinosDragons]

Wow thank you for your very heartfelt words. Indeed, as I get older, I find that while I am learning more and more with reading, I also get younger and younger as I appreciate, and recall all these models that have accompanied me through Life. Whether I've been good or bad, in terms of state, finances, relationships, work and so on, these dinosaurs have been a consistent anchor for me. If you ever do your own videos, send me a link to see your collection! 😁

[@SiamSentin3l]

@@DinosDragons your most welcome! Don't have any videos yet but I sent you an email with some pictures 😁

[@starbirds2464]

How did bro forget the best one fi all the hlng pachy

[@DinosDragons]

Ah yes, sadly that is one that I somehow wasn't too fond of. I still can't figure out why. Maybe it's the colour, maybe it's the horizontal eyes which I initially liked but less so over time.

[@starbirds2464]

@@DinosDragons really? Funny that’s my favourite one

[@rokugeni2263]

I just order the "Horn of Doom" model by Rebor for this week because Triceratops is my favourite dinosaur before you made me learn about this concept, what a coincidence ! I really enjoyed those two videos and you made me discovered some models like the Collecta Torosaurus which I found super cool. Keep going !

[@DinosDragons]

Thank you for sharing! Indeed, Rebor has some of the best recent dinosaurs, even though I don't have the triceratops one. CollectA has given us plenty of dinosaurs in the past that were recently discovered, before PNSO and HLG broke the tradition of limited releases announced once a year. And Safari ceratopsians by Doug Watson are still some of the best ever, except the rough skin textures.

[@paleo-logica]

Una segunda parte llena de pesos pesados de los Marginocephalia. Seguramente, viendo los planes de futuro de HG, vendrán mucho más de nuestros amigos cornudos 😊👏🏼

[@DinosDragons]

Realmente creo que hasta que PNSO presente un nuevo ceratopsiano, HLG tiene los mejores ceratopsianos recientes de todas las empresas. ¡Solo mira el nivel de detalle que se ve en sus pequeños ceratopsianos como Chasmosaurus, Kosmoceratops y Diabloceratops!

[@paleo-logica]

@@DinosDragons Totalmente de acuerdo 😉

[@ethoraptor9479]

Really enjoyed these two videos. The reviews are straight to the point and show a range of options on the figures available which I found very useful. Thanks for always producing quality content

[@DinosDragons]

Thank you for your kind words, and also for your feedback about what you liked the video. I always appreciate knowing a bit more detail like that so I can improve! 😁

Lovely collection.

Thank you! Sadly space is lacking so not all could be shown!

haven't commented in a while but i love these videos of yours, especially as they focus a little bit on your life! it's a breath of fresh air.

[@DinosDragons]

Wow it's great to see you back here again.> Glad you're all right! I hope yu have been keeping up with the hobby still, and buying some nice models along the way! 😁😁

[@kwaziness]

@@DinosDragons as a student its difficult to buy models and stay afloat, but i did get my first PNSO model last week! it was the Suchomimus and I love him! Otherwise, I've been catching up on your reviews when I go to the gym. Easy 20 minutes on a treadmill or elliptical thanks to you!
