These have been alluded to in a couple of other threads, but I figured it might be easier to have a single spot for information on them.

Inaugural release is a chibi-style Yutyrannus, just a bit larger than the Animal Heavenly Body figures


They've also released a teaser suggesting a pair of more realistic figures: Shantungosaurus and Tarbosaurus. Will update as more information emerges.

Edit: digital sculpt of Tarbosaurus is in the replies.

Concavenator

Extremely promising company as far as I can tell.

I can also tell that that Yutyrannus is screaming... Screaming for a realistic version of itself, of course.  ;)

Elengassen

I'm definitely in the market for a new Tarbosaurus. However, I see this Yutyrannus doesn't have lips. If the same is true of the Tarbosaurus, that would be a shame, especially if it otherwise turns out to be good.
One day we will know the truth about Spinosaurus... but not today.

Turkeysaurus

I think it would be much better if they also give it chibi style eyes. It would be easier to recognize what they are going for.

I'm curious, what makes you think they're promising? Have you seen something other than the silhouettes that have been posted to social media?

I can't really tell here, does it actually lack lips or does it just have oversize teeth?

Zooming in, it looks to me like the teeth are erupting from the very edge of the jaw. It is a bit blurry though so I could potentially be wrong.

I think it's similar to New Haolonggood T.rex. Not like crocodile (pnso) type teeth are coming out of jaws but still lipless.

Yeah, that makes sense.

For my part, I'm most interested to see what the Shantungosaurus looks like.

Dunno, I'd say the Yutyrannus clearly appears to be lipped:



FWIW, I expect the Tarbosaurus to be lipped as well.

No, I haven't seen anything else. But this company is basically Animal Heavenly Body if they didn't limit themselves to chibi figures, and that's a big deal. As it can be clearly seen that this Yutyrannus (as well as Animal Heavenly Body's figures, for that matter) is a very well-made and high quality figure, only categorically inaccurate because it is intended to be a chibi depiction, and as such, naturally, its proportions are gonna be inaccurate. But pretty accurate otherwise.



Which suggests that their non-chibi figures will probably be great. The silhouettes already look promising.

I am very excited to start seeing non-chibi figures from this company, even if I have no interest in a Tarbosaurus or a Shantungosaurus. But I'll be interested in seeing what they make after those two (fingers crossed for at least a realistic Yutyrannus...).

Joliezac

Sounds exciting! I don't have hope that the Rebor Yutyrannus will see the light of day so I am eager to see how this one looks.

Love how it looks, but I have a strong feeling that he's got that early 2000's narrow head. I really, really, REALLY hope that's not the case. But so far it definitely looks better in profile than what PNSO did with theirs.

It looks good to me! :)  I'm interested in seeing the final product.  PNSO set a high bar with theirs in my opinion, but this one looks like it could top it!

I have to say hat if the final product will be close to how fine the surface texture looks on this render, I would have high hopes for the Shantungosaurus as well.

Certainly this Tarbosaurus will please many theropod enthusiasts which are not happy with the lack of lips on the PNSO Tarbosaurus.

I certainly like this rendition way better than the skull on PNSO's version.

PNSO tarbosaurus looks distorted somehow. The body & head.

It looks horizontally flattened like a fish to me.
