Creative Beast Studio has recently released a number of tantilizing images for Beasts of the Mesozoic and Cyberzoic. First up are in-package shots of the Achillobator and Utahraptor.
The packaging artwork is nothing short of superb as always.
And here are catalog shots for the Allosaurus jimmadseni, with and without its Tech Clan armour and pilot.
Make way for the monumental Mamenchisaurus, all three of them! Yes, as with their Alamosaurus, Haolonggood is offering another trio of titans.
I definitely like the blue version best myself.
But be warned, just one of these behemoths will set you back a bundle of money and a heap of display space!
We now have our first officially revealed figure from that wonderful teaser poster that Haolonggood dropped earlier this month and it’s none other than the formidable ankylosaurid Euoplocephalus!
Old timers will recall that Euoplocephalus had a fairly decent number of toys back during the 80s and 90s, but then that well dried up—until now.
Mattel’s latest take on Tyrannosaurus rex is the “All Out Attack” toy. The colour scheme is sadly nothing to wrote home about, however . . .
. . . this tyrant boasts a brand new ability: extending teeth. Yup, you read that right. The teeth in the upper jaw can extend to nearly twice their length.

Howdy from wonderful, windy Wyoming! Today we’ll take a look at the Honorable Lead Boiler Suit (HLBS) Stegosaurus. Stegosaurus, with the large plates on its back, is probably one of the most recognizable dinosaurs along with Tyrannosaurus, Triceratops, and Brontosaurus.

Howdy from wonderful, windy Wyoming! Today we’ll take a look at the Honourable Lead Boiler Suit(HLBS) Plotosaurus. This figure was made in 2000 or 2001. I believe this is the first review of thisspecies, however, so an introduction to the species is appropriate.
Well, we now have confirmation on all the genera in that teaser image that Haolonggood released last month, and it turns out that the only error I made was identifying Saichania as Tarchia (kind of an easy one to make). This is indeed going to be a fun (and costly) year!
Mattel has revealed a fifth titan (sixth if you count the regular and Hammond Collection Brachiosaurus toys separately) for their Jurassic World Legacy Collection and it’s one that has never featured in any of the movies before: Diplodocus!
The slated release date is September.

Howdy from wonderful, windy Wyoming! Today we’ll take a look at the Honourable Lead Boiler Suit (HLBS) Allosaurus. This model is okay until you get to the head, which will be analyzed below. It isn’t one of HLBS’s best models, but not quite the worst either.
Eofauna announced earlier today that production of their Tyrannosaurus SUE figure is at last complete and that it is en route to their warehouse with a projected arrival date of May. Check out the detail in that huge and lethal mouth. Better than the usual straight pink that we’re accustomed to seeing in theropod mouths.
Over the last four years, we’ve gotten toys of Edmontosaurus from Safari, CollectA, Schleich, and PNSO. Now Haolonggood is throwing its hat into the ring with these two beauties.
Like those other toys, these ones feature combs atop their craniums, thereby implying that they represent E.
It’s been awhile since the last PNSO reveal, but now check out Yiran the Lufengosaurus.
The light green coloration looks very sharp. And it’s always great to see a new basal sauropodomorph figure.
Haolonggood has released a most exciting teaser image of upcoming products. Check it out!
They have not officially released any names, but the genera appear to be:
Top row, left to right: Mamenchisaurus, Huayangosaurus, Amargasaurus, Camarasaurus, Tarchia.
Middle row, left to right: Gastonia, Euoplocephalus, Maiasaura, Stegosaurus, Edmontosaurus.

Howdy from wonderful, windy Wyoming! Today we’ll take a look at the DeeZee (DZ) Liopleurodon. DeeZee figures were incorporated with the Honourable Lead Boiler Suit figures and sold as one line, as additions to HLBS’s Saurian Safari game.

Sinoceratops zhuchengensis is a centrosaurine ceratopsid that lived during the Late Cretaceous of present-day China. The holotype specimen was discovered in 2008 from the Hongtuya Formation in Shandong Province and was formally described in 2010. It was the first ceratopsid formally described from China!
