I think that's pushing it, though in time I could see it becoming as popular as Diabloceratops or Kosmoceratops, or close enough. Lokiceratops is definitely an interesting ceratopsid.

Quote from: Halichoeres on October 28, 2024, 02:53:14 PMthe fact that the authors behind the genus were involved in the development of PNSO's version reduces the odds that I'll buy Showanna's.

Same here.

It looks good mostly, but they've given large scales on the top of the snout where there should simply be keratin.  Ovelapping scales too, something not known in any dinosaur as far as I'm aware.  I hope they can correct this.

I think this is a Daspletosaurus horneri!   I'm interested in having a figure of this species and this Showanna figure looks very good, but I notice they've put scales on the rough area of the top of the snout and on the lacrimal horn.  These two areas should be covered in keratin.  I hope Showanna can correct these areas.  Is there some way of contacting Showanna to express this to them?  For comparison:
