The Pentaceratops is AWESOME!!!!

The Pentaceratops is amazing! The Europasaurus is decent, but the head is massive!

The model actually depicts a dwarf Europasaurus.

Very nice! I didn't know the Europasaurus had such a large head but I won't pretend that I know much about Europasaurus anyway.

It didn't... :( http://static.flickr.com/62/163236016_0ed2ef629f_o.jpg
Maybe it's the angle?

(Europasaurus is a dwarf species of brachiosaurid to start with, not sure what dwarf Europasaurs means or why such a thing would have a large head?)

Pentaceratops looks like a must buy!

Damn, I like that Pentaceratops a lot.  Collecta and Safari have been doing some very good ceratopsians lately, but I think Battat's remain unsurpassed, and this is no exception.

I'll await better pictures of Europasaurus.  At the moment I'm thinking the neck looks a bit fat.

I feel like it must just be the angle for the Europasaurus. I'll await Dan's explanation.

Wow, they look really good in color! I think I'll get the Penta... no the Europo- no, both! And the ones we haven't seen yet! ANd 2016's! And 2017! AND ALL THE YEARS AFTERWARD! >:D

like a bantha!

Pachyrhinosaurus

I always liked the originality put into the original Battat figures and these are no different! I have also been a big fan of the stylistic wrinkles of the line. Its great to see these in color and I'm only more excited for the next ones.

I like the Europosaurus a little more and the Penta a little less in these photos.  The colouring is great, but it seemed like the material in the previous photos showed up the detailing better. 

I suppose these are closer to the final product though.

Oh my goodness...such wonderful figures!

The coloration on the Pentaceratops coupled with the sculpt makes it an amazing figure!

This Europasaurus really helps emphasize that it was a dwarfed form of brachiosaur. It will have a unique place in my collection.

Beautiful details all around. The fact that these adhere to 1:40 scale always seals the deal for me, too  8)

The Europasaurus is a very nice sculpt, though I can't really form a judgment on the color scheme with the angle the photo is at. The Pentaceratops is a great sculpt; it really shows off the anatomy well.

Love the sculpts, going to have to pick them both up when they are released! ;D

Penta looks pretty cool..though the paint placement make sit look like his head is overly HUGE..lol The Europa reminds me of a juvenile? Perhaps that is the intent?

hope to see a better angle pic of the Europa

Don't you hate it when you legitimately compliment someone's mustache and she gets angry with you?

That Pentaceratops is a beauty....

amargasaurus cazaui

I hope we get a sneak at that Plateosaurus, I have always felt the particular look of this dinosaur would just match Dan's sculpting style so well.......
