Safari Ltd - New for 2022

[Thialfi]

I hope the new stuff will start to drop in European stores soon, sincerely hope for Safari as well the whole distribution chain will pick up pace. These models deserve to be bought!

Zuul just came in stock, ordered myself one.

[Halichoeres]

Placed my order, and it had been long enough since the last time they released something I wanted that all my "Bernie Bucks" expired. I don't love that feature in a loyalty program.

Oh no! Mine definitely too, since I haven't ordered anything from them in over a year.

I think so long as you order something, anything at all, they get a new expiration date?  I order about 3-4 times a year?

[Dinoxels]

Next year's lineup should definitely be Monoclonius, Laelaps, Indominus rex and Barney

Safari Ltd. Laelaps when?!?! lol

There actually are a surprising amount of fan requests for an Indominus Rex from people who don't seem to grasp that the entire reason for its creation was to give Universal its own "copyrighted" dinosaur.

Omg thats hilarious

[CityRaptor]

People really do not pay attention to dialogue...or really a lot of other stuff. Pretty sure that like everything Jurassic World refers to her as a hybrid.

[Dinoxels]

Yeah, it is absurd to call Jurassic World "toxic influence" when just referring to the Indom being mistaken as not a hybrid. It is stated several times in the film to be a hybrid. But anyway, if any of you need last minute looks at the new Safari Dinos, here you go:



(thanks again to the amazing people at Safari Ltd. for sending these out)

[SidB]

I've already ordered the Alberto and Zuul, but have held off on the "Nano". I think that I'm liking it more now.

[Faelrin]

You know, I never did catch this earlier, but that Zuul is really giving me Disney Dinosaur's Url vibes, and in a good way. Just looking incredibly adorable and wholesome, especially in your pic @Dinoxels.

[PrimevalRaptor]

Great pictures, thanks for sharing! That Albertosaurus really is gorgeous.

[Dilopho]

For the UK is my best bet to wait for these to hit Everything Dinosaur?

[ceratopsian]

Yes, I would say so.

Well I suppose it's likely that next year's new releases will come out in less than a year, so maybe I'll be able to redeem some then.

Well, 3/6 have made it home.





Gotta be honest, I'm a little underwhelmed with the Zuul figure. The sculpt is top notch but for some reason the paint on mine seems a lot more flat than what reviews and early images led me to think it would be. Perhaps a decent repaint would take it up a notch .





That being said, I am pleasantly surprised by the Patagotitan even if I would still have preferred a more horizontal position to the neck. Regardless, seeing a Safari Ltd sauropod is like seeing an old friend that's been gone for too long, and the paint job is really nicely done on this one.





The Albertosaurus is the easy winner for me. The sculpt is killer, and even if I don't like the design of the colors on this one, the color scheme itself is great!

I'll probably be skipping the Nanotyrannus and Stigymoloch, so that just leaves the Cryolophosaurus. I  have a feeling this is one of those "best for last" situations.

The factory paint jobs rarely do the sculpts on Safari figures justice. The minute I saw the promo photos for the Zuul, I thought, "Man, I can't wait to repaint that."

Your copy seems to be particularly sloppily painted unfortunately. The eyes and beak in particular, which gives off the impression of a botched make-up job.

Not sure if it's the lighting or not, but the paint work on early review copies and the promo pics felt like they had more depth.

[suspsy]

I like the look, the colours, and the sculpting of the Zuul just fine. I'm excited to get it. My only disappointment is in its puniness. Zuul is the second largest known ankylosaur from North America after Ankylosaurus itself, with a length of six metres and an estimated mass of 2500 kg. But next to the Albertosaurus, this one looks like a juvenile.

I'm glad someone else sees it. I opened it up and just thought, huh, I think mine in missing some color compared to what I've seen

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

My Zuul is the same, lots of bright green. Seems to be missing a paint step?
