Paleofigures says it's a Diplodocus on FB.

yeah, @Pinbacker just wrote this

i like that it's brown, standard WWD colours

[Paleo Flo]

A legendary dinosaurs! Irgendwie will be hard to ignore.
But Haolonggood: please three colours so we don't have to buy a brown variant

Btw: the blue stripes in the Iguanodon's head look like water stripes. Very calming I love it

There is some info about diplodocus might have yellowish or ginger skin color from preserved skin from legs.

Ah cool! That is new to me. Thank you!

Yes. So good news really. Finally the Morrison sauropod lineup will be complete, at least when it comes to the most iconic species.

Still would not mind a Barosaurus, Supersaurus, Brontosaurus, Kaatedocus, Galeamopus and Haplocanthsaurus at some point.

Diplodocus? Yes!!!

No one does sauropods like Haolonggood. I own and love my female Rebor Dip, however I can never say no to a Haolonggood sauropod. If they're close enough looking maybe they can be a mating pair. Crossing my fingers for a different color choice.

Haolonggood fan account shared a brutal video where Diplodocus is cut in half:

This video gives a better feel for the actual size of the Diplodocus figure.

Rebor is around 83 cm that's 29 meters for 1:35 scale. Diplodocus hallorum around that size and maybe more.

Diplodocus carnegii is smaller at 24-26 meters. Haolonggood doesn't look longer or larger than Rebor so you can use them two different species if you want.

I have rebor too (female) , I hope i can get Haolonggood too one day.

It looks larger than Eofauna, smaller than Rebor. Great size for Diplodocus Carnegii.

Very nice! Loving the look of that sculpt!! If they put some effort into the paint, this is an instant buy for me! Giving me more hope for a future Supersaurus!

@Turkeysaurus

Great idea! That's how I justified purchasing both the Haolonggood and PNSO Stegos. Ungulates and Stenops. On another note I am getting so antsy waiting for the HLG Alamosaurus to arrive. I pre-ordered it from Lana on May 1st this year.

Not sure if the Alamo counts as "new for 2025" or not. Seems like the paint job is slightly different than their original release.

Congrats, new Alamosaurus paintjob looks better than previous release.

Is that the blue Alamosaurus or the brown one?    (And more on topic, when was it decided that Diplodocus had spines, anyway? I can't be the only person that sort of misses the older reconstructions, can I? Or I'm just showing my age.  )

There have been quite a few nice Diplodocus figures made since the 2008 Carnegie — which I own — but I have never felt the need to "upgrade". This Haolonggood might be the one that I want (even though I would have liked it better if the neck was held up more vertical).

I'm old too   Both Blue & Brown looks improved, they don't have weird abdominal pattern anymore. Eyes look less cartoony, more modern Haolonggood.Paintjob looks most same but i think better applied as well.









There have been found some keratin spikes on some diplodocid dinosaur's tail part.I guess rest is speculative.

I ordered the blue. It feels like forever ago, especially seeing how Amazon could deliver one to me by tomorrow. I kinda regret pre-ordering from Lana now. That's what I get for living at the Chinese antipode. At any rate it's the one and only HLG sauropod I don't currently own

[Turkeysaurus]

There is a new video of Iguanodon on Paleofiguras Facebook.

I think they are more orange and blue than brown and grey.
