Their "Prehistoric" section also features this new coconut palm:



Certainly impressive looking, and should be good for Eocene dioramas, at least.

Neat.  Would be great for Jurassic Park dios.

Really thick tail indeed.  Looks like it will help counterbalance him .

The skull looks pretty narrow though..I would have thought a bit thicker.  Looks like the Dinosaur Planet Allosaurus :


Okay, now that model looks good, except for one thing: it's bending down too low, IMO.

And it's modeled after Allosaurus..not the Saurophaganyx.  lol 

Actually the pose is made to fit the dead Stegosaurus I think.

From what I read. earlier in the thread. I think the Saurophagonax was supposed to be Allosaurus, but I assume they decided to make it a obscure species instead. So you got this creature with the anatomy of a Allo, but it was named Saurophaganax.

It's thought it may be a species of Allosaurus...but it doesn't seem they are sure yet. 

i don't think they have the skull yet of this animal so I guess a thinner narrow one is possible. new reconstructions of allosaurus seem to show a bit wider and rounded skull.

ZoPteryx

Really like those palm trees!

Spinosaurus Aegyptiacus

Do we know when the CollectA 2014 releases will be available?

I asked a Shop Owner.  He said First wave should be around the end of this month.

I gotta say, that Carcharodontosaurus looks pretty nice! I also like how its shiny. :)
like a bantha!

Blade-of-the-Moon

It does look to match the prototype really well.  Here's hoping it's in stock in the U.S. this month or next.

Not yet..might be early February.

Everything Dinosaur just posted a group photo of CollectA's new figures on their FB page, more photos later today I think. They look really good, and that mosasaur is HUGE! It dwarf all the other figures! :))
