Megaraptoran Figures?

[Katieraptor]

Hi there!

So while Allosaurus is my favorite dinosaur, my favorite group are actually Megaraptorans. Unfortunately, they're pretty scarce as far as figures or even model kits or 3d prints go. Are there any good (or really any at all) Megaraptoran figures out there? Australovenator, Megaraptor, Aerosteon, Fukuiraptor, Tratayenia etc etc.

Not many. Australian Age of Dinosaurs made a nice Australovenator, but it's getting kind of tough to find:


And there are a couple nice Fukuiraptor figures, from Favorite and Kaiyodo:

CollectA made a Fukuiraptor last year:




Honestly it is a shame how hard the AAoD "Banjo" Australovenator is getting these days. Granted CollectA, Geoworld, and Kid Galaxy all made figures of this genus, but the the AAoD is easily the most accurate of the options out there, as far as I'm aware.

Depending on how you classify Siats, there's a Jurassic Park action figure by Mattel coming out later this year. Other than that, CollectA has an Australovenator.

[Brontozaurus]

Sega's Dinosaur King line made Megaraptor, but that was when it was thought to be a dromaeosaur and so doesn't really count. 

All the existing megaraptoran figures have been covered above, though the Yowie Australian Allosaur and Rapator figures might also count, as both are now possibly megaraptorans and the figures are both generic theropods that pass fairly well for megaraptorans.

Why is everyone saying the AAOD Australovenator is getting hard to find? Has it been retired? Have I missed anything? It's true Urzeitshop doesn't have it in stock any longer, and that's the only shop I knew that stocked it. Any news on this?   

[Halichoeres]

I can't find it on AAoD's web site anymore, either. They now have several plush toys that I don't remember seeing before, but the Banjo figure is nowhere to be found.

Megaraptorans are pretty scarce as far as skeletal remains go too.  There isn't even one good skeleton known for them!  Still, I'm surprised Megaraptor hasn't ever had an up-to-date figure made, the morphology of the juvenile snout is pretty unique and could make for an interesting best guess figure.  Favorite made a mini Fukuiraptor that's pretty nice: https://f-favorite.net/collections/dinosaur_minimodel/products/fdw-210

I guess if we're being exhaustive, there's also a little Fukuiraptor skeleton by Kabaya:

Apparently Lontic just made an Australovenator figure too.

True! Although it's a repaint, they've offered that figure in gray for a while now.

Which megaraptoran is best known from fossil remains anyway? Is it Australovenator?

Top to bottom,
COMPOSITE of derived megaraptoran (Aerosteon, Murusraptor, Orcoraptor, Megaraptor);
Aerosteon riocoloradense holotype MCNA-PV-3137;
Murusraptor barrosaensis holotype MCF-PVPH 411;
Megaraptor namunhuaiquii adult (composite of holotype MCF-PVPH 79 and MUCPv 341) and juvenile MUCPv 595;
Australovenator wintonensis holotype AODF 604;
Fukuiraptor kitadaniensis FPDM-V 97122.

Its a very fragmentary group of dinosaurs.

I think Tratayenia fills in some of the sacral anatomy:



But that still leaves a lot of mystery.

Come to think of it, it would be nice if a company produced a figure of Aerosteon at some point, partially from it being the currently most complete megaraptoran discovered yet, but I also think the name is quite appealing.
