GR Toys / Haolonggood - New for 2022

[Halichoeres]

In collaboration with Haolonggood, 1:35 Quetzalcoatlus with articulated jaw

Currently up for order on AliExpress and possibly elsewhere, with one finished figure and one unpainted. Customers will have a few months to paint it and submit it for a contest, the prizes for which are other GR Toys products, including a 1:20 Tyrannosaurus statue for the grand prize winner. It will be available without the unpainted figure later on.

In development:

Acrocanthosaurus


Therizinosaurus


Last and emphatically least, Tyrannosaurus

[Shonisaurus]

GR Toys's offer is ingenious when it comes to raffling a tyrannosaurus rex figure, apart from other products, to the one who paints the best quetzalcoatlus, it is a good sales and consumer strategy. I honestly think that quetzalcoatlus is the best figure at least in terrestrial position of all those that exist in the market, although I already said that in the other thread.

I like the elegant modeling and texture of the dinosaur models and GR Toys is doing it exquisitely and perfectly.

[Renecito]

Great figure! I am definitely gonna buy it.

[Carnoking]

The paint contest is an interesting idea. I'm sure we'd see some very cool submissions from this community.

Standing Quetzalcoatlus !
Great news !

The articulated jaw is not really pretty here though, but I'll do with it.

[suspsy]

Not bad.

[Lynx]

Interesting, I don't have high hopes of this actually coming to the public, but looks great! If it does release, fingers crossed it is fairly large and scales up with the other figures.

It's written that is 1:35... which means it will be probably anything from 1:35 to larger, so I don't think you have to worry for it being small

I would buy this despite the unsightly seam. Good pterosaur figures are just that rare.

Thanks for starting this thread Tim!  The Quetzalcoatlus is not for me.  I'm eagerly awaiting another GR Toys figure that captivates me as their Carcharodontosaurus did.  I'm hoping it will happen with their Tyrannosaurus (I hope that doesn't give you a nightmare!).

I don't like the idea of offering an unpainted version with the painted one unless you have the choice of getting the painted version on its own.  I guess that's because I'm not interested in painting figures and the paintjobs of GR Toys figures have been so good that it seems unnecessary to paint them yourself.  And besides you can always repaint an already painted figure.  I don't get offering unpainted versions of painted figures.

I wonder if the Quetzalcoatlus will only come in one colour scheme?  I've liked how GR Toys has offered two different colourations per figure and I would like that to continue, if it's okay for the company.

I hope GR Toys will make an Austroraptor, Tuojiangosaurus and Chasmosaurus belli in the future!  I think they would come out great in their style!  They are what I'd like the most from GR Toys.

To clarify, according to the Paleofiguras post, it will be possible to order the painted figure only, but the initial orders will be bundled. I tend to agree GR Toys figures have very nice paint already; I couldn't hope to top them!

This is the first Quetzalcoatlus that's tempted me in a long time. I currently have the exhibit edition Colorata version (https://dinotoyblog.com/forum/index.php?topic=3390.msg214397#msg214397), but this one might be better in some respects. I don't love the jaw articulation, however.

So it's really happening? Yay! I'll be ordering the unbundled painted one when it becomes available.

Same here, like most people.
But still I wonder if PNSO is not going to strike back, they made lots of marine animals last year (it is still weird to hear that), it might be time for pterosaurs and honestly they can't miss the standing Quetzalcoatlus.

Its got to be just a matter of time before the PNSO 'Empire Strikes Back.' At least, I hope so.

Lol
It's even a strategic mistake on their side not to have alwready made the Quetzalcoatlus.

[DragonRider02]

I'd really like to get that 2-pack and paint my own Quetz, but I am already dreading the price... It's two figures after all.

[Thialfi]

Available for pre-order! https://m.nl.aliexpress.com/item/1005003808421224.html?gatewayAdapt=gloPc2nldMsite&fbclid=IwAR2BikhUevmRQNP-1JZQG45GgiQwwcFAO-pkQgmOGF2KqFfakDecuByp8lo

[Gothmog the Baryonyx]

Do you know roughly when the actual release is?
Depending on when that is I might wait until release before buying rather than preordering. It depends whether its in February, March or April when other releases are coming. And whenever the Safari Ltd figures are coming.

[Fembrogon]

That price is certainly tempting; it's basically two big models for $18 each. I'm curious what the later individual release will list for in comparison (that's supposed to happen too, right?).
