^that's a repaint,  I have the original figure. I hope we get some prehistoric mammals next year but I know its unlikely.

Not exactly a promising start.

In the kingdom of the blind, better take public transit. Well, in the kingdom of the sighted, too, really--almost everyone is a terrible driver.

I actually rather like the 2021 Spinosaurus, but I sure as hell hope that future Safari products aren't made from the same cheap, brittle plastic.
SAME! that's my biggest gripe with these new figures.
My Deinonychus lost its foot. I don't even know how.
Well, my Quianzhousaurus just lost one of its toes, and I too haven't got a clue when or how. My suspicion is that the stiffer plastic was meant to prevent their theropods from toppling over. Too stiff and brittle, I'd guess.

Came back to this thread to point something out.
That Baryonyx has an oddly familiar paint scheme.

Reminds me of a certain Favorite Co figure..  ;)

EDIT: To prevent anything from going down, at first glance the colors seemed similar, I am not saying Safari copied them AT ALL

Noted! The Favorite was a fine figure, and the Safari is rather similar in a couple of ways, though it has the great advantage of being readily available. I got my Favorite Baryonyx though Brett; otherwise it would have cost a small fortune on eBay.
