In my opinion Megaraptora is one of the coolest and most underrated clades ever, and it's a shame we don't have more figures of them. This thread will hopefully serve as a list of all Megaraptoran figures currently available as well as in the works, as well as maybe resin models if I have the time. It can also serve as a wishlist/general discussion of Megaraptoran figures. If you know of any figures I missed please let me know.
(Note: I will be including possible Megaraptorans like Gualicho and Deltadromeus in a separate list to avoid confusion)

Certain Megaraptorans:
  • Megaraptor (Haolonggood, WIP)

I'm noticing a bit of a theme with two particular genuses getting most of the attention...

Splonkadumpocus

All I have from this group is a Collecta Australovenator.

One more than I do lol. Thought hopefully that'll change when hlg's new figure comes out.

Yeah, I think the fact that Fukuiraptor and Australovenator come from countries that don't have any (described) members of, say, Tyrannosauridae or Carcharodontosauridae has helped them out. 

All these guys are pretty fragmentary, IIRC. Hopefully a more complete megaraptoran will turn up and we'll get more and better figures. Not knocking any of the figure designers, but there's only so much you can do when most of the animal's appearance is guesswork.

Siats is also suspected to be a megaraptoran.



And now that Everything Dinosaur is stocking Haolonggood, I am most keen to see how their Megaraptor turns out.

"Demon of dubious descent" sounds like a Shakespearean insult questioning the legitimacy of someone's parentage.
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.
