We didn't just discover a new dinosaur... we discovered a future Wild Safari model.

Haha yes! They are probably the world's leading producer of small plastic Ceratopians! XD

Genuinely, though, I would love to see an Avaceratops model, but then again I feel that its group are over-represented in the dinosaur toy world. It would be a real breath of fresh air to see some small Ornithopods and Heterodontosaurids, Ornithomimids and Prosauropods as well. ;)

Anyway, this is a very exciting discovery, especially because of 1) the relative completeness of the skeleton and 2) the skin impressions. Personally I'm very interested in what could well be quite a significant find. Besides, the skeleton is beautiful and I love the mount. :)

Very cool!  There have been so many ceratopsian finds lately.  I love that picture of the fossils with the curator, so you get a "before and after" type image in your head.  :)
(Looking forward to that future model, too!)

Georassic

I live about 25 minutes from RMDRC and took our boys there a month or two ago. They had signs advertising this mount "coming soon." We'll need to make a return trip to check him out.
Side note: their dino-gift shop is pretty awesome, dinosaur-wise it's far better than Denver Museum of Nature & History's.

Mamasaurus

Always very cool to have a new ceratopsian to drool over, but I agree with Tyto. There are so many wonderful animals that it would be good to see representations of something like a hadrosaur, ornithomimid, or hypsolophodont, for a change.
