Ha ha !! You got that right!!

[Gwangi]

I really hope I can cultivate a love for dinosaurs in my children. People ask what theme the baby room is going to be and we say "dinosaurs" and then they ask "what if it's a girl?" and we respond...."dinosaurs".    Dinosaurs don't need to be gender specific! Anyway, I'll stop derailing here. Maybe we need a "dealing with kids/cats and models" thread.

Trying to figure out what dinosaur species are coming up is difficult enough,but guessing what is actually finished and being molded right now is much harder...

I'll be shipping 2 sets of resins & their paint masters of series 2 off next week along with the repainted Carnotaurus & Ceratosaurus from the former MOS Boston series.That leaves the Galimimus & Utahraptor left to be repainted. I'm holding off on these until I here from Battat if I'll be feathering these or not. Foolish to paintv them if I have to make some major changes ( arm  and tail feathering in particular ).

That's great!Thanks for letting us know.

For me perfection would be a Psittacosaurus for this group, but given the size and scale specifics that isnt going to happen for me...if I had to choose second I would have chosen Plateosaurus and that seems a sure thing now...the only way to sweeten the set for me now would be the Herrerasaurus and he did say two models were theropods from the new set so who knows...I am delighted regardless, being one of the first if not the first to say Plateosaurus loud and clear. I just think with Dans sculpting style and that particular dinosaur it is a perfect marriage and cannot wait to see the results.

I would LOVE if Dan did a Concavenator...the only one I have is the Carnegie one wich is bland,the Asaki one is very,very good but I can't get kt hecause it's too expensive for me.Dan...I trust you 

[Brachiosaurus]

I want a Glacialisaurus to be made,

[Sim]

I'm really looking forward to the Plateosaurus and Pentaceratops!  They're two really cool dinosaurs!

I wonder why the Gastonia and Gigantoraptor were delayed to next year?  I would've thought releasing them a little before the end of the year would make them sell even better due to Christmas?

You could also get the CollectA one...

Maybe Dan could do a Deinocheirus, now that they've found the rest of the skeleton.

Only once the paper has been published. Same with Spinosaurus. Waiting for the overall concensus on both

err well no, that is only an article and not the formal paper....I expect the paper will be a few years off actually

@amargasaurus cazaui: I think that is the actual paper, but only the abstract is available for free.

It refers to itself as only an article from what I read, so go figure. I would assumed the paper itself would be more obvious.If that is the actual paper I will get busy and see if I can get it ...thanks
