My favorite Paraceratherium is from Eofauna.
My favorite Parasaurolophus is from PNSO.

Neither of them have been done or released, but they will be my favorites.

Eofauna paracetharium dosen't exist and PNSO didnt show the images and you cant say a figurine that not exist yet.

My favorites this year are the Itoy paraceratherium (until another specimen of this elusive prehistoric mammal is made, I will not be able to say if it is better or worse) for me it is the best paraceratherium made by a brand of toy dinosaur.

Then another of my favorites are the two versions of spinosaurus from GR Toys and Papo's megaloceros whose horn broke, I had to order another one from an online store.

I know, as I have already said. When they exist, they will be my favourites. I'm so sure about that. By the moment, none of the existent figures is my favourite. And the I-toy paraceratherium is just too big for me to like.

I'm torn between the Collecta Deluxe and Wild Safari Para, but the CollectA one is better imo

Ha! I have to agree. At least we've already seen the PNSO sculpt.

My favorite until PNSO releases theirs would be the Kaiyodo Dinoland one.

I used to have that one. It's smaller but the exact same model as Schleich's brown Parasaurolophus.

A true 1/35 scale Paraceratherium would be just right. We have Itoys' 1/20 scale one, which is great, but we really need a genuine 1/35 figure, especially with the production values of Eofauna.

I'm sure I've said this dozens of times now, but I really want to see a smaller one, anywhere from 1/30-1/40, either from Eofauna or even CollectA at this point, or even Safari (or even an indie brand too, etc). Honestly other then CollectA's, old one, and recently I-Toy's, I'm kind of surprised no one else has bothered to make one of the largest land mammals of all time.

On the topic of Parasaurolophus, the new PNSO easily takes second place for me now after the Battat Terra.


Edit: Would be nice to see this poll redone to account for those, especially the Battat/Terra that was strangely left out.

I think I have commented on it in other threads even in this

I would like a gigantoraptor and a tsintaosaurus (scientific and "retro" version) made both by a renowned Chinese company like Vitae or PNSO to give two examples and even by western well-known brands like Collecta, Papo, Safari and even Schleich and a version " retro "by Rebor's part of that hadrosaurid would be great. I do not understand how there are still no decent reproductions in terms of size, at least by Chinese companies, of two iconic dinosaurs for all of us who are fans, in my case I count myself as dinosaurs.

Regarding the paraceratherium I sincerely ratify the comments of other members of DTF. It is a complete shame that one of the greatest mammals of all time is ignored by the vast majority of known western toy dinosaur brands except for the honorable and laudable exception of Collecta that made one in 2006 if I remember correctly. I believe that this figure is not produced due to the economic risk or rather economic failure that the sale of that iconic prehistoric mammal would produce. In fact, in all the physical stores in my city they tell me that the dinosaurs of Papo, Collecta or Safari are sold but on the other hand prehistoric mammals and hadrosaurids such as iguanodon or parasaurolophus the sale is null and in many cases as it happens In the Store of the Museum of Natural Sciences of my city they are not in favor of commercializing the Collecta iguanodon since they are not sold and the same happens with the hadrosaurids immortalized, for example, by the PNSO company.

The same may happen with the gigantoraptor although in this case I believe that practically no serious attempt has been made to commercialize or rather produce that extraordinary Asian dinosaur figure. In this case sincerely if you don't try ... you will never know what the sales potential that figure will have. I suppose that if they make it with a good, exact and careful sculpture, dynamic, well painted and with an acceptable size and at a price in the times that are quite affordable, it can eventually be a bestseller when it comes to the world of the dinosaur of the world. toy. My opinion is that in this case you could try, it is like an opposition or the study of a university degree if you do not try and study you will never know what your intellectual potential will be.

I encourage any Asian or Western toy dinosaur company to seriously make a good gigantoraptor figure, I mean this as a humble suggestion and as a simple animation. I understand that by trying, even if it is only by a company, you could know if that figure is worthy to have a collector and, most importantly, it may even be popular for the paradoxically more demanding public such as children and their parents.

It's not exactly a toy, but I'm also very fond of my Paramblypterus.

Oh man, I love the 1/20 I Toy paraceratherium. It scales quite well with the CollectA and Safari prehistoric mammal offerings, which are plentiful. In that respect it's a pity EoFauna works in 1/35 (doesn't stop me from buying their figures though, as they are amongst the best on the market). A 1/35 paraceratherium woild be great though, as an additional, younger family member to the I Toy one!
