I bought this one as T. pachanoi but someone on the forum said it was T. macrogonus. It looks the same as the one in your first picture. The newer spines are not as strong because it has been growing under artificial light which is not bright enough. Those in the background are probably the real thing.

Member of Somerset branch. I have a diverse mixture of small cacti plus a few larger survivors from a previous collection. I also like Stapeliads, Titanopsis, Anacampseros, and various other succulents. Now proud owner of many self-raised seedlings.
