Thanks for this informative post. It will be another good subject for Doug Watson to consider for a Safari sculpt - one of his marvelous ceratopsians.

I'd rather an animal known from more than just a few scraps gets the Doug Watson treatment.  But this is a nice discovery and the artwork by Sergey Krasovskiy is beautiful.

I would not mind this dinosaur figure although it is preferable another ceraptoside such as protoceratops, chasmosaurus, centrosaurus, monoclonius or a pentaceratops that would compete with the Papo, Favorite or Schleich brand for three examples.

There could be a Solomonic solution, a Crittendenceratops and one of the ceraptosides mentioned for example.

Yeah the Schleich penta is cool but it's not a work of pure beauty, and the Papo penta is same crap different day, and it's worse overall. And the Battat one was never released, so I'd love a safari one! Also this should be the Arizona state dinosaur (I don't believe it has one, correct me if I'm wrong)

From what I understand, the material recovered for this new ceratopsid is very fragmentary, only parts of the frill, so I don't see Safari making one, they tend to prefer dinosaurs with more extensive remains known.
