Alioramus was one of the smaller tyrannosaurids to have arisen and thrived during the Late Cretaceous period. Mind you, the only known specimens thus far are juveniles and subadults, so just how big an adult could grow to be is unknown.
Author: Suspsy
Suspsy has lived in Canada all his life. One day when he was in kindergarten, his teacher did a lesson on dinosaurs and put up some giant cutouts on the wall. Suspsy immediately began pretending to be a Tyrannosaurus rex at playtime, and continued to do so for many subsequent playtimes. Since then, he has acquired two degrees, worked many different jobs, travelled to many fantastic locations, fallen in love, gotten married, and settled down to raise a family, but his passion for dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals has never waned.All reviews by this author
Review: Tylosaurus (Recur)
4.1 (30 votes)
Goodness, but it’s been quite awhile since the last time I did a Recur review. The company still appears to be struggling to break out of the Asian market, as their products are not available at any of the most popular online stores like EverythingDinosaur or MiniZoo or Dan’s Dinosaurs.
Review: Utahraptor (Keychain by Schleich)
2.4 (13 votes)
As the largest dromaeosaur currently known, Utahraptor has received a fair number of toys, though certainly not as many as its smaller relatives Deinonychus and Velociraptor. The very first one (as far as I know of) was released by Kenner for the Jurassic Park line back in 1994.

Review: Dakosaurus (PNSO)
4.5 (31 votes)
Dakosaurus means “biter lizard,” a most appropriate name for any metriorhynchid. There are currently two recognized species: D. maximus from throughout Europe and D. andiniensis from Argentina. Unlike other metriorhynchids, D. andiniensis possessed a noticeably short, deep snout, which has led it to be nicknamed “Godzilla.” It is also the geologically youngest known metriorhynchid, hailing from the Early Cretaceous as well as the Late Jurassic.
Review: Dino Skulls (Toob by Safari Ltd.)
4.2 (29 votes)
From the savage teeth of tyrannosaurs to the intimidating horns of ceratopsians to the endearing crests of hadrosaurs and to the peculiar noggins of pachycephalosaurs, dinosaur skulls truly are stupendous. I previously reviewed Safari’s toob of prehistoric mammal skulls; now I’ll be looking at their Dino Skulls toob.

A humid spring morning finds A’tahsaia striding through the trees, following her nose toward the familiar and irresistible scent of rank meat. Arriving at the forest’s edge, she sights a small herd of torosaurs wading and drinking in the shallows of a river.

Review: Abelisaurus (Age of the Dinosaurs by PNSO)
3.5 (26 votes)
Abelisaurus, which joins the distinguished likes of Ankylosaurus, Ichthyosaurus, Mosasaurus, Plesiosaurus, Stegosaurus, and Tyrannosaurus rex in having an entire group of animals named after it, is presently known from only an incomplete skull.
Review: Rhamphorhynchus (Dino Rivals)(Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom by Mattel)
3.4 (12 votes)
Out of all the weird and wonderful pterosaurs, Rhamphorhynchus is arguably the one we know the most about thanks to many gorgeous fossil specimens with preserved soft tissues such as beak tips, crests, and even brains as well as the wing membranes and the tail vane.
