I have been posting high quality showcase images of the new Safari Ltd. figures on my Instagram if anyone is curious!  ;D

Can you pass me a link I am a member of instagram?

In my case I would be interested in a paraceratherium from Safari even if it wasn't nearly as big as iToy's or even Collecta's. An updated version of the 21st century by a company located in the USA of a paraceratherium would be good, although I don't know how successful it would be to market this figure, very well-known even for those of us who are fans of dinosaurs as is my case but it is not a mammal prehistoric as treated as its mammoth or smilodon counterparts, which are the kings of the prehistoric world of the Ice Age or, rather, the Cenozoic, since the paraceratherium does not belong to the Ice Age, which is rather the last stage of said period.

All these figures look great, I really love the colours on the Albertosaurus. Very funky...
(Also..hi everyone!)

Nice to see you!

Safari lists some other brands on their website, but is not wholly affiliated.

I heard somewhere that biobuddies is not part of safari anymore, that they lost the license recently.

It was in this thread, a couple of months or so ago.

For 3 years, Safari was the US distributor of BioBuddi products.

They didn't "lose" the license, they decided they would no longer be the US distributor.

It's not more complicated than that. Distribution deals begin, end, and get re-evaluated and re-negotiated all the time.

Lots of good suggestions in the comments already.

I really want to see Safari (well, Doug Watson ;)) tackle an Estemmenosuchus.

I recall quite a few guesses being Estemmenosuchus for the eye all the way back in 2018. While it turned out to be an amazing Uintatherium, a part of me was still bummed that it wasn't the titular Permian synapsid.



Moreover, Safari's prehistoric line could really use more Permian fauna. The only ones I can recall that aren't from toobs is the Dimetrodon, Inostrancevia and Scutosaurus; the latter two having been retired for quite some time now, and are very difficult to track down.

The Patagotitan is in stock now on Safari's website! Hopefully other retailers like avatar_Everything_Dinosaur @Everything_Dinosaur will also be receiving their 2022 shipments soon!

Based on a comment Safari made there, it looks like they will be releasing a Stygimoloch.  My excitement for that is zero.

I read through a lot of the comments and was generally unimpressed by the suggestions. :-\  A number of times people would say an animal that Safari has already made or stuff known from fragments only like that new megaraptoran whose name I don't care to remember.  Or stuff that already has a good toy version.  I also don't understand why Safari limited this to Twitter?  I'm not on Twitter so I can't participate.  On this note, I created some polls where members of this forum voted for what they'd like from Safari, and tried to submit them on Safari's website but I got no response so I don't know if they received them. :-\

If it ties into Dino Dana or have some sort of Coloration that indicates its a JUVINILE form of Pachycephalosaurus.     I will have a lot of Qustions for Safrai LTD

As one person said (I cant remember if it was here or Facebook) Did they not used to Work With PALEONTOLIGISTS? ::)

I would take a Stygimoloch from Safari. I already have their Dracorex and Pachycephalosaurus, it would be nice to round out the trio.

To be fair, Stygimoloch was still probably a real, fully grown animal. The species name would just be "Pachycephalosaurus spinifer" and not "Stygimoloch spinifer."

A Megaraptoran figure is long overdue, so i'm glad it seems to be one of the most requested items

avatar_GojiraGuy1954 @GojiraGuy1954, as far as I'm aware the Stygimoloch specimens are juveniles.  But regardless of whether it is a distinct species or simply a growth stage/example of sexual dimorphism of Pachycephalosaurus, I'm simply not interested in it.
