Potential prehistoric mammals for Mojo Fun

[John]

For this thread,I suggest that we put in up to three choices of prehistoric mammals we would like to see developed by Mojo Fun to be put on a poll.
For me it's:
Hyracotherium lepinorum
Uintatherium anceps
Basilosaurus cetoides

[CM]

Thylacoleo carnifex
Amphicyon giganteus
Chalicotherium grande

[SBell]

I would like to see a horse series, from Hyracotherium through to (almost) modern horses.

And carnivorans. Lots of different ones.  Everyone always wants the big, scary ones. What about Chapalmanalia? Or smaller ones like miacids and early dogs and cats llike Proailurus and Hesperocyon?

As for whales--what's with the Basilosaurus love? I'd rather see a real freaky one like Pakicetus or Abulocetus .

And don't forget the Mesozoic--Repenomanus, Ptilodus, Didelphodon, Morganucodon, Castorocauda and Volaticotherium (as just a few).

I am right there with you, especially with the horse series.  I worry that a lot of the stuff I'd like to see wouldn't be considered "distinct" enough, though.  I'd actually love to see individual species even within the genus for most of these, but we're not talking 10-figure annual releases here, sadly.

[ZoPteryx]

I think an "evolution of whales" series would be really cool, perhaps including Pakicetus, Ambulocetus, Kutchicetus, Protocetus, Basilosaurus, Dorudon, Macrodelphinus, and Odobenocetops.

Some good carnivorous mammals would be Thylacoleo, Thylacosmilus, Short-faced bear, Sarkastodon, Patriofelis, and Dinocrocuta.

Some good herbivorous mammals would be Ampelomeryx, Elasmotherium, Sivatherium, Aepycamelus, Chalicotherium, Synthetoceras, primitive horses, Pyrotherium, Diprotodon, Palorchestes, Procoptodon, Uintatherium, Toxodon, Hyracodon, and Macrauchenia.

Other good mammals could be Didelphodon, Leptictidium, Volacticotherium and many Mesozoic mammals.

Since all of those seem a bit excessive, I've bolded what I consider the best ones.  Those that are also underlined are my top three.

Normally I would agree with Sean but these have to sell also to the masses and have to look interesting to them. A lot of those he mentioned are kind of "normal"  Chapalmanalia is interesting to me but looks like a bear or giant panda. So I think things like Uintatherium, Chalicotherium and Arsinoitherium are probably safer but in the whales I would like to see Zygophyseter. Very distinctive.

And Odobenocetops!

[Trexroarr]

Here are my three choices.

Mammuthus columbi (Columbian Mammoth) (Whenever a Mammoth is made, it is always of the well-known Wooly Mammoth. Is it just me, or is it time for his hairless cousin to be made into a figure?)
Andrewsarchus mongoliensis (The largest carnivorus land mammal ever needs some real representation.)
Basilosaurus cetoides (We need one of these already. It is just that simple.)

[CM]

Down the road, I wouldn't mind seeing some primates as well.  Just not right away.

[Seijun]

My top mammal picks:
-Uintatherium
-Platybelodon
-Arsinotherium

[Takama]

Darwinius Anyone?

[John]

The mammal suggestions sure came fast! So far we've got (and please forgive any misspelling here as mammals aren't my strong point):
Hyracotherium lepinorum
Uintatherium anceps
Basilosaurus cetoides
Thylacoleo carniex
Amphicyon giganteus
Chalicotherium goldfussi
Ambulocetus natans
Synthetoceras tricornatus
Arsinoitherium zitteli
Zygophyseter varolai
Odobenocetops peruvianus
Mammuthus columbi
Andrewsarchus mongoliensis
Platybelodon danovi
Darwinius masillae

At 15 different options,that should be enough for a poll I think.
If not,the poll could easily be modified.

[Trexroarr]

Is there a way to make it so that we can vote for two options?

[Bokisaurus]

Unithatherium would be a great one, we need a good figure of this guy in a larger size.
Mojo's excellent modern ungulates makes Synthetoceras or Sivatherium a great candidate. 

[DinoToyForum]

As requested by John, I've edited the poll so we can now vote for two options.

[CityRaptor]

Voting for the Whale that thinks it is a Marine Reptile! Basilosaurus!

Also for the Chalicotherium...

[Splonkadumpocus]

For the record, I voted for Basilosaurus and Amphicyon.

My philosophy is that having only one animal from a particular place/time is pointless, as there's nothing for it to interact with. With that in mind, my choices:

1. Basilosaurus. There's still no love for the prehistoric whales, and this iconic mammal deserves better than the tiny Safari toob version. Can interact with Brontotherium and Hyaenodon

2. Amphicyon. Miocene animals are rare enough. Miocene predators? Rarer still. In fact, while there have been/will be several deinotheres, a couple of gomphotheres, and one chalicothere on the market, there's nothing out there to hunt them. Can interact with Daeodon and Deinotherium.

3. Chalicotherium. Just too strange to ignore. Can interact with Deinotherium and Amphicyon.

4. Ambulocetus. Kind of breaking my own rules here, but again, Ambulocetus is just too awesome to ignore. Seriously, prehistoric whales need more love. I suppose it could interact with Hyaenodon, but they're at least 5 million years apart. If Andrewsarchus is present, there's no problem since these two coexisted.

Runners up:
Arctodus: Seriously, a mammoth variant made the cut but the 11-foot bear didn't? I'd vote for this over Ambulocetus, to be honest.

Thylacoleo: One of my favorites, but sadly it's all alone. Throw in a Diprotodon or something and were talking, though.

[ZoPteryx]

I voted for the two most ancient whales.

[John]

Basilosaurus appears to be pulling out ahead
