HAOLONGGOOD - New for 2024

[oscars_dinos]

this is why im waiting for amazon I feel like the shipping is more transparent there

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

When they ship they will post it. Or you can message them, they have always got back to me quickly.  I would guess they are loading a bunch of orders at once or they charged based on the fact the item is arriving soon and then they will pack for shipping.

Quick snapshot in a dark cellar using phone blitz - even in such bad lighting you can see the paintjob is great. Will drop some more photos in natural light in a few days. The sculpt is extremely well done anatomically even on parts such as the skull where there is a lot of guesswork. It's the first 1:35 figure I feel fits the impression I had when I saw the patagotitan skeleton in the museum.

Thank you R @Rayeknor!  Good news to hear you are so impressed with this colour version, and the sculpt itself.

Paleofiguras has told me Haolonggood will produce Giganotosaurus.

Paleofiguras has told me Haolonggood will produce Giganotosaurus.

The list following species in a post: Brachiosaurus, Tyrannosaurus rex 2.0, Giganotosaurus, Shantungosaurus, Mosasaurus. Not sure if all of them have been confirmed. At least some theropod options.

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Brachi and Shang will be must haves for me. Not sure on theropods or a mosa yet..

[Joliezac]

I don't have a Brachi or Shant in my collection, so I will probably get those. I already have so many rexes and gigas so I don't see myself getting those unless they are on the same level as their Triceratops (which is their best model to date in my opinion). The Argent blew my budget for the next few months though so I will probably have to wait awhile before buying anything else from Haolonggood.

Honestly I'd get all of these lol

Same!

There is another purple version available on LanaTime currently

Nice to finally see more of the brown now that it's rolling out but that review won't make me a convert. Something about that mix of colors and the application puts me in mind of severe bruising or necrosis, probably because the mottling is done with more purples instead of actual browns. Green is still leading the charge for me!

Indeed good to see the brown in more natural light and from different angles. I like the style of the mottling and also the rich variations in colors on the dorsal side, but the ventral side is just way too pale for my taste, in places (parts of the tail) almost white. This was my main issue with both the brown and purple since the first in hand pictures started emerging. This reminded me of the brown Haolonggood Apatosaurus I got which in parts of the tail and neck is so weakly painted that it appears white.

I had initially ordered the green and the brown, but then changed the brown to the blue. And this seems to look really good now as far as I can say. Now I hope that the final version of the green will have this beautiful ocher color on the ventral side that I liked so much when the promotional images came out. If not, I will get it repainted by a professional in exactly the style how it looked in this image with all four on the beach.

[Flaffy]

I like the burnt-amber streaks highlighting the dorsal osteoderms on 130. I just wish they had chosen something similarly fitting/blended for the purple version's dorsal streaks. The final version's orange streaks stand out too much for my liking.

Still no shipping notification from Lana Time yet. I'm not normally impatient, but with the holidays approaching, I'm getting a little squirrelly here...

[oscars_dinos]

this is how I feel about it appearing on their amazon store, I messaged them and they sent me a link but it says unavailable so :/

For me the same. Something strange is going on. They wrote last week (when they asked for the payment of the shipping costs) that they expected the delivery of the two remaining color variants (brown and green) on the (last) weekend by the latest. But they did not post any own pictures of the brown and green color variants. My suspicion would be that the shipment from Haolonggood was delayed or got lost or something along these lines.

[SenSx]

Yep, I'm still waiting for proper photos of the green version before making my choice...
