What prehistoric animals would you like made into figures?

[Faelrin]

I would love to see more prehistoric plants but they are the things I'm least familiar with, so I don't have any particular genera in mind. But I really like CollectA's offerings, Safari's, and Creative Beast Studios. I'm[way behind on CollectA's, but I have the others. That said I am down for more options.

At the very least it would be nice to see Calamites to go with the many Dimetrodon figures we have (and anything else from the Red Beds, like Edaphosaurus, Eryops, Diplocaulus, Orthacanthus, Platyhystrix, etc). Come to think of it, I kind of would like to see a new Dimetrodon too. None of the current options really satisfy me in one way or another.

Some PNSO or Haolonggood extinct crocodilians would be sweet...

[Halichoeres]

Any other plant nominations? Or fungi, weird algae, anything other than an animal?

[Faelrin]

Devonian period "trees" would be interesting. Eospermatopteris or Wattieza, whichever it is, is cool to me as I got to see its fossils a few years ago (see this image heavy thread). I wouldn't be against generic members of the groups common at the time though.

Prototaxites would be neat to see. The Carboniferous Lepidodendron (or its relatives) is another.

Tempskya is another one that comes to mind, as it is in JWE2. Some of the flora from the Chinle formation would be nice to have, such as Araucarioxylon, Neocalamites, etc.

Obviously Cooksonia and its relatives as well.

I'd love a Cooksonia or Lepidodendron.
Don't have any plants in my collection rn but I would be super happy to add some!

Pirania for my lobopods to monch.

Ooh, that's an animal though!

Oh, you're right. Lives in the Amazon, can strip a cow of flesh in three minutes...

Ha, fish puns. You know, maybe in the hands of a skilled butcher the spicules could help separate a side of beef. Or at least tenderize it.

Now that I think about it (partly from revisiting Ballad of Big Al), I really wish there was a small scale replica of Big Al's skeleton (MOR 693), with all its injuries. That middle/third toe with the distinctive bone infection and all. Aside from that episode, I'm drawn to it because it was uncovered the year I was born.

Black Beauty (Tyrannosaurus) would make for a nice display piece too, if shrunk down. And of course Borealopelta (and Zuul). Honestly there's probably a lot of other skeletal material that would make for fascinating figures (holotype of Parasaurolophus walkeri is another). It's rare we get figures of actual specimens depicted as we've found them (like the crushed skull of "Sue" that came with the recent PNSO Tyrannosaurus).

[Halichoeres]

Any more non-animal suggestions? If not, I'll make a poll later today.

[Trenchcoated Rebbachisaur]

Prototaxites and those floating driftwoods from Jurassic would be nice non-animals to have!

I intend to link companies to the polls soon, so now's the last chance to get your votes in if you haven't already!  The "other" prehistoric animal poll is the only one with less than 20 votes, if this doesn't change I'm still going to link companies to it.

I would absolutely love scale models of important specimens! Particularly those in matrix or with skin impressions like Zuul, Scolosaurus, Borealopelta, Brachylophosaurus, etc.

I'm intending to link companies to the threads for species we would like, tomorrow, so now really is the last chance to vote in the polls before I show them to companies!  The threads are linked below, in case you would like to vote in them!

I've linked Papo, PNSO, Safari, CollectA and Haolonggood to the polls!

[Protopatch]

Great, many thanks for having orchestrated all of this, and for your commitment which, hopefully, might make our dreams come true
I'm definitely keen on seeing how the companies will react to our proposals, especially the Chinese companies and more specifically PNSO that has lately seemed to run out of inspiration with their "Ceratopsians on parade".
Anyway, let's cross fingers, and wait for the possibly positive outcomes of this action !

I've also linked Mojo to the polls, perhaps they'll find them interesting too.

[The Templar of the Past]

The lack of an Halszkaraptor figure is surprising to me considering the attention that companies gave to recent discoveries recently and this dromaeosaur is definitely noteworthy and unique.

[Monkeysaurus]

I would absolutely love a Prionosuchus figure - the largest known amphibian to have ever lived. I love prehistoric amphibians and I don't see any high end figures being made. I'd also like to see the boomerang headed one made into a figure.
