PNSO: New for 2022

[CARN0TAURUS]

Just started to move my humble collection to a new shelf system. I avoid putting out bipedals as I'm quite afraid their leg will bend.



Do you guys have any input on which theropods are sure to bend and which are holding their position? I know about Wilson and Paul, but what about the Zucheng-or Yutyrannus?

@Medzo
I've had no issues with my pnso theropods except for connor, but he was already a bit unstable right out of the box.  He stands fine with his rod tho.  The rest of them I don't even use the rods on them, as long as your display or shelves are level and not getting direct sunlight, they should be fine.

Thanks for the feedback. My only fear of the standing rods that if they slip away a bit they actually support the figure to be bended into that position. Someone posted not long ago a more custom stand with adjustable arms, maybe I shall try those.

I personnaly don't trust the standing of my Qianzhousaurus, I always use the rod.

Mine can barely stand at all without the rod. The only PNSO theropod of mine that doesn't use its rod is the Zhuchengtyrannus.

Probably the only figure I have yet to see not lean slowly over time is the Zhuchengtyrannus. Seems like it is the best balanced therapod so far. Although still a new figure and we shall see down the line if this is still true.

Why don't you just use the rods PNSO include? If you do that, it won't matter if the lengs bend or not, the figures will be able to stand. At this moment, I only have 2 PNSO theropods: the Yutyrannus and the Qianzhousaurus. I have had them being supported by their respective rods since I got them and they've been totally fine. The rods are transparent, aren't too noticeable and they ensure stability (in the vast majority of cases). Personally, I don't understand why some people are against them...

I just tried them, but I hope they won't bend, it matters to me. Also I think it may affect its collectibe value later on.

They don't show any signs of bending. Also, with how mass produced these figures are, I wouldn't consider their "collectible value" to sky-rocket anytime soon.

Agreed on the potential future value @Bread.  They are mass produced and widely available. While it's true that some models do command high prices down the line, such an increase is the exception. And hard to predict when the model is actually released.

Well I always calculate with 10 years at least haha  . Any toy/model is mass produced naturally but in time their state and availability decreases significantly.

By the way, a new sale on Ali is coming up in 9 days with the same additional $3 off every $40 spent. Let's prepare the wallets!

Understandable. But I will say have some confidence in those rods. They are very reliable AND they should be included in every bipedal prehistoric animal.

[Faras]

Yup the stands are solid acrylic, capable of holding solid PVC figures for years without bending or slipping. tbh ageing might cause failures well before rods bend from the weight.

[SRF]

I have the majority of PNSO's bipedal figures in my collection and all of them stand perfectly fine using the rod. I even use the rod on the Tarbosaurus which is the only figure that really doesn't need it I think. None of these figures have issues standing at the moment, even the ones that are in my collection for over a year now (Wilson, Domingo, A-shu, Paul) al stand perfectly fine using the rod.

I was thinking the same thing yesterday. But with three of Safari's 2022 reveals, I am less worried :0)

Is the lockdown over there?

Official page of PNSO in Aliexpress is now charging shipping and is very expensive for me.

Yep, just checked too. U.S. here, almost $12 for shipping. Ridiculous and gives me another reason to be distasteful to new PNSO products. Also, basically ruins the Aliexpress sales.

Hopefully amazon prime continues with these products being free shipping once they arrive here in the states.

You are right, maybe i'll start to buy on Amazon.
USD$12 is too much in my exchange.
