Papo new for 2022

[KrazyKaprosuchus]

Kronosaurus. I'm assuming this is a 2023 release. Doesn't look too bad.

Hmm, are the teeth more accurate than PNSO's? The tail and the teeth were the main thing that turned me off PNSO's krono, so I think i'll pick this up if so.

hold the phone, why does this actually look GOOD?

[Lynx]

It has a dynamic pose, good detail, and isn't really shrink-wrapped.
That's a welcome surprise.

[Carnoking]

Just when I'm out, they pull me back in!

Love the smatterings of barnacles covering it, that's a rather unique touch.

[Gwangi]

I need to see it from more angles but keeping my limited knowledge of marine reptiles in mind, it leaves a decent first impression. I still like PNSO's more though. If I have any complaint about this Papo one it's that I don't like the orientation of the head.

Nope, 2022 release according to Mini Zoo https://www.minizoo.com.au/papo-kronosaurus/

Yeah, I just saw that. @dinotoyforum, could you please merge this thread with the Papo: New for 2022 thread?

[postsaurischian]

 Obviously it shall be released for Christmas.
 This page also still lists the Mosasaurus (scroll down a bit):

Are those barnacles along the front shoulder and flipper?

One friend in one server friend in discord found this fella.

[Lynx]

It was discussed earlier in another thread, I think is actually amazing, probably one of Papos best in the last 3 (maybe 4) years.

[SpartanSquat]

In which thread?

Papo new for 2023

[BlueKrono]

Oh man that is cool. Do we get to uncross-out Kronosaurus now?

[Palaeontologica]

First time something has happened that's noteworthy enough to drag me from my hiatus. I can't help but suspect the same sculptor who did the Mosasaurus was involved. While both aren't quite right anatomically they're surprisingly decent.

[Carnoking]

I really do like this one. A bright spot in a dull year.

[Fembrogon]

So it exists after all!
I kind of like it. I think looks stylized in a way closer to their older models, where it's not too exaggerated but still getting that extra little "cool" factor to the look. I hope we get more photos soon.

[Pliosaurking]

That's actually the first figure from Papo that I not only really like but will also be picking up since 2019!

[Faelrin]

Not bad, although the posture of the flippers bugs me, but I guess it was done for stability reasons. This and the Mosasaurus are definitely the highlights of their minimal releases this year, and honestly I think both of these are a massive step up from their previous marine reptiles (the Plesiosaurus and Tylosaurus).

[triceratops83]

Hmmm, an actually decent Papo. I wonder if this means we'll get the giant squid, too.
