RECUR - New for 2025?

[Faelrin]

So these were posted on their instagram. From the recent Hong Kong Toys Fair:





In case folks haven't spotted it yet, there's the new Stegosaurus. It was last sighted in those batch of pics dumped on Paleofiguras FB page last year, which I'll share below. I imagine that means a release for it this year?



The others that might be releasing this year:

The Dimorphodon revealed last year has yet to release, so hopefully we see that one this year as well. It's been on their website for a bit too.

The Pachycephalosaurus's head makes me think it's based on the Jurassic World Stygimoloch.

[Joliezac]

Oh I am really loving that Carnotaurus & Dilophosaurus...

[Tattu]

That Dilophosaurus and Giganotosaurus look amazing!

Recur went from a brand I ignored to a major player recently. The Carnotaurus, Dilophosaurus and Giganotosaurus look really good. The Carnotaurus in fact, reminds me of the more recent Carnegie figure.

The Giganotosaurus is insane, I wonder if the final product will be that good.

Wasn't a very nice Cryolophosaurus also planned ?

Oh wow wasn't expecting a review of this one so soon. Will need to check it out next day (or technically later today).

This Stegosaurus is not bad at all, and I like the texture on the plates a lot. Drawbacks are the somewhat overdone rims of scales surrounding the plates, the incorrect manus, the weird orientation of the spikes of the thagomizer and the lack of a clear gular armor on the neck. Overall, I am happy with my Haolonggood and PNSO.

[Concavenator]

Still curious about that Cryolophosaurus. It would be ideal if it was in 1:35 scale, but I get the feeling it'll be bigger than that. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

These are images of the Cryolophosaurus and Sinoceratops, posted by Paleofiguras a few months ago.
They look really good but apparently Sinoceratops has claws in all the hand digits.

I think the Stego looks like a miss. It's not a badly-made figure, per se, but it feels like a retread of older and outdated imagery of the dinosaur, in the vein of Schleich and Papo products; this is in contrast to the T. rex, which feels more like a response to PNSO and Prehistoric Planet.

[Halichoeres]

What I'd like to see is a wider release of their Sinosaurus.

[Faelrin]

So Recur teased a silhouette with the Dilophosaurus on their insta, and a message that it is coming soon. Thought I'd share this for folks looking forward to it.

Agreed. Out of all the sneak peeks we have gotten so far, the Stegosaurus and the Velociraptor feel out of place, IMO both inspired by cinematic dinosaurs, rather than actual species.

This Pachycephalosaurus is pretty meh:

[Over9K]

I will say... Osborn has a ton of character and fits right in with the current crop of lipped variations.

Certainly fits into the majority of your pack color-wise.

[Concavenator]

I'll be interested in learning the size of the Dilophosaurus.

[Over9K]

Certainly fits into the majority of your pack color-wise.

Too true.

That said, these days, I'm far more disappointed in what manufacturers are doing in terms of camouflage, than their color choices. I feel like these enormous hunting predators would require some bold markings, meant to diffuse the outline of their mass, obscure the direction and speed of their travel and thus, confuse prey, rather like "dazzle paint" on a World War 1 battle ship. It seems nobody wants to take that kind of risk on the cash-cowsaurus. 


Here are my ideas in paint.
