Papo 2020

I guess that this is a bit preliminary, but does anyone know if the Baidu Giganotosaurus is available for purchase anywhere yet, or is it only at the prototype stage?

I’m pretty sure it’s a one off thing, a custom project.

Aw shucks,, what a shame! Well, collecting life goes on.

Everything Dinosaur has now got the Papo Megaloceras in, and quite a low price too. I was hoping to wait until the PNSO figures arrive and pick it up together but I have a feeling it will sell out before then.

Tomorrow or no later than Sunday I acquired from the Store of the Museum of Natural Sciences the megalocerates, repainted feathered velociraptor and stygimoloch. I am counting the hours to buy said beauties on the megaloceros, the star figure of Papo this year.

Papo Giga got hacked... fo' real:

That looks awesome! I wish I were talented enough to try to do something like that!!!!

Super impressive custom, and using entirely just the original figure too aside from the neck and a bit of the upper legs.

Got the Megaloceros a week or so ago, pretty good, has some decent presence to it. 7/10 for me

Not sure if this has been posted or not, but Happy Hen Toys online has the Megaloceros available here in the US. There are a couple caveats, though:

1. they currently have it misspelled as 'Megaceros' so if you search for it, use that name

2. For some reason, you cannot add it to your cart from its page, but you CAN from the search results page (again, searching Megaceros).

I emailed them about these errors, but no reply yet.

I ordered mine this morning (plus, three of the insects!).

Hard to believe these reveals came a year ago already. Hopefully that means we get to see what's coming in 2021 soon!

Can't believe the Giga is still on so many people's minds

I hope Papo makes a similarly posed theropod for 2021 so the both of them can have a gun duel.

Papo are always late to the party, its a shame in recent years they've not quite made the wait worth it

With small Cowboy Hats? Riding on Sauropods?

...and herding Torosaurus!

My Papo Megaloceros came in this week, and it's a beauty. Thought that I'd share a picture of it posed besides the older Geoworld one, previously reviewed on the DTB. Both tower over the old Bullyland version. As such, they have an air of majesty about them. Which one do you prefer?

[Shonisaurus]

@SidB My congratulations on your new acquisition. Honestly, the two megaloceros are majestic but in my case I prefer the megaloceros of Papo by far, although it is also true that the megaloceros of Geoworld I have never had it and that even physically seeing it my opinion about that figure would be very different from the one I have right now, since you can't judge from the pictures, although obviously my favorite megaloceros in order of highest preference unless they are Papo, Bullyland and Geoworld.

Thank you, @Shonisaurus , you are a great and consistent encourager. The peace of God be with and upon you in this New Year.

[Shonisaurus]

@SidB Thank you for your beautiful words. God bless you also and protect you and I also do that blessing and protection to each of the DTF members who for me are my second family.
