After a long time of abstinence I got this today.
The life as a cacti freak couldn't be better.

You have to use only the search.

Thanks folks!
The Gymnocalycium are from the German Gymnocalycium-guru Gerhard Piltz. I think he have the best stuff of it.
After I had seen hob's cacti of the month of February, the Stenocereus thurberi was on my must have list.

Ralf those are all beautiful! You are indeed lucky, and got lots of new spines. 
The last one looks sorta like one of my favorite spiny friends, the might saguaro...
