Although I’ve reviewed a number of these Yowie figures there’s one above all others that I’ve been wanting to obtain, the Atopodentatus, and I guess the 12th times the charm! Although listed as “common” on the Yowie rarity chart it had frustratingly eluded me for two months.

Overviews of three large murals on display in the Paleozoological Museum of China. These huge historical artworks were painted in 1994. They were recently described by myself and others in the journal Geoconservation Research. For more information see:
Wang, Q., Wang Y. and Smith, A.S. 2024. Atmospheric Paleoart: A Case Study of the Murals in the Paleozoological Museum of China. Geoconservation Research. 7(2), 072409. https://oiccpress.com/gcr/article/view/8295/9393
There are lots of figures of the artworks in the paper but the murals are long and narrow so it’s difficult to appreciate them as a whole. That’s why I created this video to help show them off.
Review: Iguanodon (Ultimate Dinosaurs by Yowie Group)

What set of “ultimate dinosaurs” wouldn’t include the first dinosaur described by science? Although hardly obscure I wouldn’t exactly call Iguanodon popular either so any new figures of it should warrant some attention and a time to shine on the Dinosaur Toy Blog.

The first revealed Haolonggood product of 2025 is none other than the bodacious Brachiosaurus!
And as you can see from the text above, those who preorder the great sauropod will get of two new repaints of the Huayangosaurus that came with last year’s Argentinosaurus.

I cannot believe it, my 300th review! How can it be that a single person has written 300 toy dinosaur reviews in 13 years? Well, aside from just enjoying it I also write reviews as a distraction from the trials of life, and anyone that has been paying attention to current events over the last several years will understand why my output has been so large lately!

“HHHHRRRRRROOONNKKK!!! Never fear, fellow dinosaur lovers, that’s not a real megatheropod bellowing menacingly at you. No, it is actually I, Dr. Bellasaurus rex, along with my faithful and friendly companion, Tricerabeth!”
“Already told you not to call me that, Doc.
