I always like it when companies try out species that have never been made into figures before, as it gives people a chance to learn about new species and expand their knowledge. I have stated many times that I love the DinoWaurs Survival for this and continue to do too.

We’re all well aware that dinosaurs came, and still do come, in all manner of odd forms. But even the famous therizinosaurs, with their huge claws, bulgy bellies, and small heads, might well have considered tiny little Yi qi to be the oddest one of all.

Monolophosaurus is a genus of theropod from China that dates back to the middle Jurassic period. At 15’ (5 meters) long it was a modest sized theropod known for a distinctive singular crest on its head, the name Monolophosaurus actually means “single crested lizard”.

Wow, I was not planning on reviewing another Spinosaurus so soon, but when I got this figure, I was blown away and I jumped on the opportunity. With so much history included in my last review, I will skip all of that and really focus on this magnificent new Spinosaurus from PNSO.

Roaring into today’s review is a figure that I never thought I would own. The Giganotosaurus you see in the photos is not a new sculpt by Schleich, but a repaint of their now retired World of History version from 2015.

Hello dinofans, and welcome to another review. Sit back, grab a coffee, and hopefully enjoy the review.
Today, the vast Mongolian desert is a desolate and harsh environment. Breathtakingly beautiful, the landscape stretches as far as the eyes can see.

As much as we all love Tyrannosaurus rex I think even the most diehard tyrant lizard fans among us will admit it, T. rex is overdone. Even if you don’t agree, you must surely acknowledge that Rexy’s popularity comes at the expense of other large theropods, especially other tyrannosaurids.

As soon as I saw this figure starting to pop up on social media and online toy venues, I knew I had to have it. I mean, look at it! Released in 2018 from Kaiyodo’s Sofubi Toy Box series, this Tyrannosaurus rex comes in three different color schemes: the orange and striped version(018A) featured in this review, an olive green version(018B), and a reddish-brown version(018C).

It always seems that whenever you start collecting something where you don’t know what is in the packaging, be it a blind bag, booster card pack etc., there is always a certain figure or card they are specifically looking for, such as a rarity or favourite.

Japan isn’t usually the first country to come to mind when we think of dinosaurs; we all know the famous fossil bone beds and the dinosaurs they contain from western North America, China, or Argentina, but most people, even dinosaur enthusiasts, would be hard pressed to name a single Japanese dinosaur.
Review: Balaur (Beasts of the Mesozoic: Raptor Series by Creative Beast Studio)

An unfortunate case of science outpacing merchandise, this highly-detailed and articulated dino-bird still has many merits.
Balaur bondoc is a good example of how quickly scientific understanding can change, as well as how risky reconstructions from partial fossil remains can be.
