So beautiful!! :') Preparing it must have been a nightmare! I would love to see this guy in person someday...

I actaully didn't knew about this one, it's amazing! look at the head, and the armor!

"Reddish" nodosaurs... Cool!

That head.... it looks like the animal was just resting, you could pet it and feel its warmth and the strenght of its muscles beneath that armor. Wonderfully preserved and even if it is somewhat similar to Safari's Sauropelta or the Ankylosaurus/Euoplocephalus figures of other companies, I'd really like to see a well made figure of this,... maybe in its preserved pose?

I hope they come up with a good name for it.

'Vinzclorthosaurus' would be hilarious.

Wow, just look at the keratin on those osteoderms!

[WarrenJB]

Staggering.

[ZoPteryx]

Absolutely majestic!  Hopefully, it'll be named soon.

someone on Facebook said that the name of this nodosaur will be unvield in the next issue of National Geographic

[Faelrin]

That's an absolutely amazing fossil. Then there's Zuul. This is a great time for ankylosaurian paleontology.

That is amazing! I can't help but wonder about other such amazing fossils that were either lost to construction and demolition, or are yet to be found and may never be found. It's wonderful when they are found, though.
