That Spinosaurus looks outstanding! Nice pictures avatar_Over9K @Over9K . Would anyone by chance provide some comparisons with any Safari or PNSO figures? Thank you!

I'll throw it on the stand with the Nanmu Spino, the PNSO Wilson rex, the Safari Feathered rex, Safari Giga... I don't have any other modern Spino... it will be a little bit though...

Thank you! I appreciate it, and no rush.

Here's some comparison shots with PNSO, Papo, CollectA, and Eofauna. For this company's first figure it's really well done. Love how it looks on the PNSO spino base. And it looks great with the other two big 3 theropods.  I know the putting the weight on one hand is bothering some collectors, but I like to imagine it's in water pushing off. Hey we have to use a lot of imagination when taking about these animals anyways lol. And here's my review if anyone is interested. https://youtu.be/GVfkPYHCrEM

It has a very nice paint job.
Adding a base with prey sure takes the attention away from the awkward left hand. It wouldn't be hard to make something like that yourself.
It would be the perfect solution to display it, I think.

I sincerely believe those two spinosaurus (the two paint versions) from GR Toys are made of a very hard PVC I believe that the different brands of toy dinosaurs are developing a new material for their dinosaurs and prehistoric animals to prevent said figures from bending by The effects of time, an example of this is Nanmu Studio and I think that other brands are imitating their strategy and that is good news since there were many complaints regarding the legs deformed by the weather, especially heat suffered by these figures, especially theropods. or prehistoric animals whose stability could be put at risk.

The carefully worked painting of both spinosaurus, especially the teeth, indicates that these figures are of high quality not only because of their price, but also because of their modeling and painting.

D @Dino Scream3232 Thank you for the comparisons. So far my only issue with the figure is the price based on its size. It is smaller than I thought, was hoping it to be massive compared to PNSO's Wilson.

PhilSauria

Yeah, I'd also like to add this one to my group of Spinosaurus figures but I think that it's over-priced, so no order from me.

I wasn't going to order this at first, but after seeing a couple of reviews, and because I'm a bit disappointed in the small updated PNSO firgure, this one is growing for me.
The weird left hand is bottering me less and less as well.

I know many people really like the Papo Spinosaurus, but apart from the beautiful paintjob, that figure hasn't got any attraction for me. Mostly because just about all Papo prehistoric animals are "Wow! Awesomebro!" first, and science second. If you're lucky.
If Papo actually used the latest scientific theories and knowledge about the real animals for their figures, they would have the absolute best line in the business.
