I wish prehistoric mammals got more love (as I do protomammals as well). Can't wait to see the reveal on this teaser!

Quote from: Jose S.M. on May 05, 2023, 07:15:56 PMSafari just made some teases on Twitter. They said some of their influencers asked about next prehistoric reveal and that they told him they forgot the name but was a "brown weird rhino but with two horns on its head"...

Arsinoitherium, I'm guessing? It's not a rhino, but it's a common choice for toy lines and Safari doesn't have one yet.
Check out my customs thread!

Safari has produced an Arsinoitherium a long time ago now, there's an image of it in Flaffy's post.  It's retired.  They also have a mini one in one of their toobs.

I'm hoping it's Menoceras, or perhaps diceratherium. Safari already made a nice arsinoitherium, and I'd rather see a classic North American species represented. In any case, it's always great to see another prehistoric mammal.

Diceratherium would be a really cool toy; I sure don't recall any previous toy of that species. And I would hope that Safari knows better than to call Arsinoitherium a rhino!

I hope its arsinotherium! I missed the 2006 ones.

Honestly they could be reissuing the old Arsinoitherium like they did with the other mammals back in 2016. It's still a really nice sculpt. No idea if it still holds up tho, don't know much about that taxon

I don't want to say anything but feel like I should say something.

It is not a dinosaur.

It's a new sculpt and new genus for Safari.

I don't think dicynodonts can be ruled out given the verbiage. Placerias, perhaps? We'll see.

Mildly disappointed it's not an Arsinoitherium, as I've been waiting since Walking With Beasts for an updated one.

But also eagerly looking forward to any prehistoric mammals from Safari. It's been a good couple of years since our last batch!

I know I am gonna love whatever they have waiting for us.

Some wild guesses... maybe estemnosuchus? Or something from the stephanorhinus genus? Embolotherium?

The next reveals are coming later in the month. But I don't think they'll be from Prehistoric World.

I don't have a solid date for the next PW reveal unfortunately.

I don't think it's likely but I'm drooling at the thought of a safari Placerias

Can't wait for June then!

From what I read nobody guessed correctly. One of my candidates is the menoceras, the little rhino

Saarlooswolfhound

I watched a video recently on rhino evolution. I am very curious what they selected to present!
