The long-necked protorosaur Dinocephalosaurus swam the Triassic seas in what is now China some 245 million years ago. PNSO’s Xiaochong is the first toy of this marvellous monster.

During the Middle and Late Jurassic, the largest predatory dinosaur in China was the fearsome metriacanthosaurid Yangchuanosaurus. Indeed, it is one of China’s most famous and popular dinosaurs, reflected by the fact that PNSO has made no less than four toys of it.

Most collectors set limitations on themselves. They only collect a certain scale, one of each species, certain animal groups, certain brands, etc. With how spoiled for choice we’ve become this makes sense, very few collectors have the luxury of buying and displaying everything, we need these self-imposed rules to assure we remain responsible collectors.

Well, that sure was quick! Here’s the next PNSO reveal, Huigi the “Hongkongosaurus.” It’s PNSO’s unofficial name for a fragmentary sauropod discovered in Hong Kong. This toy’s launch is being promoted through crowdfunding with an estimated release date of August.
I wonder what its official genus name will end up being.

Youran the Guizhouichthyosaurus is the first marine reptile from PNSO in quite a long time!
The colours are attractive, especially that yellow stripe. Very reminiscent of a common dolphin.

My thanks goes to the good folks at Happy Hen Toys for providing a review sample for this review. Despite its history and the significance of its discovery, I never had much Baryonyx in my collection growing up. Although Baryonyx has had a presence in the toy market since the late 1980s, for a long time that presence seemed pretty sparse.

It’s four ceratopsians in a row now for PNSO, but they’ve still got uniqueness going for them. Meet Russo the Coronosaurus, another first toy for that species. Green is a very welcome change after all that brown!

Stella the Stellasaurus is the very first toy of her species!
She’ll go well alongside Anthony. PNSO sure does love ceratopsids.

PNSO’s first toy for the year is Judith the Spiclypeus, a chasmosaurine ceratopsid from the Judith River Formation in Montana (heh).
The blue and orange on her head go well together. Quite a sharp beak there too.

The year 2024 saw a steep decline in the number of models produced by PNSO, 7 models compared to 15 in 2023. Now we’re a month into 2025 with radio silence from PNSO, which has led some to worry about the company’s future.

Carcharodontosaurid-heads have had a lot to celebrate since PNSO hit the scene. The company has produced 6 members of the clade and most of them within the last couple of years. This has allowed fans of these mega theropods to amass a high-end collection of all the clade’s major players, and unlike other dinosaur groups, PNSO has given each an attractive and visually distinct paintjob.

Many of us will recall the old days when the term “prosauropods” was used to describe the likes of Plateosaurus, Massospondylus, Melanorosaurus, and other early long-necked herbivorous dinosaurs thought to be the ancestors of the great sauropods like Brachiosaurus, Brontosaurus, and Diplodocus.
