What Prehistoric Mammals Deserve Toys?

 Basilosaurus seriously deserves some plastic love. I'd be interested to see which company does the best job of sculpting the tiny hind limbs.

I agree with the other posters in this thread that various proboscids would make awesome figures. It's amazing what kind of diversity they achieved (and subsequently lost  :-\).

We really need a Mastodon. [...]
Imperial made a Mastodon (a big one):

But yes, we need a modern quality one.

My desire is a Thylacoleo (Papo or CollectA please).

And a Neoparadoxia (what a cool name):

Sobreviviendo a la extinción!!!

Yeah, I already know about the Imperial Mastodon. It doesn't interest me. I want a museum/collectable quality toy.

I must confess, I'd never heard of the mammals in this thread! Awesome!

Platybelodon is another prehistoric pachyderm I'd love to see in figure form. And Gigantopithecus.

The answer is simple: Each and every ;).

Given that mammals already dominate the modern animals market - especially looking at you, Homo sapiens and Equus ferus - let Dinosaurs dominate the prehistoric animal market!

Although some Mesozoic mammals could be useful for dioramas... but even better would be more non-mammalian Synapsids.

All the dinosaurs are running wild
Someone let T. Rex out of his pen
I'm afraid those things'll harm me
'Cause they sure don't act like Barney
And they think that I'm their dinner, not their friend
Oh no

Diprotodon, Zaglossus (a giant echidna), Procoptodon, Thylacoleo, and whatever that carnivorous kangaroo is called.

By carnivorous kangaroo I assume you mean either Propleopus or Ekadelta. Also Yowie made toys of all of them, but they deserve bigger figures. Geoworld was meant to be releasing a Procoptodon in their mammal line but that might not be a thing anymore.

My answer for the topic question is simple: MOAR WHALES. Basilosaurus! Eurhinodelphis! That one-tusked walrus thing whose name I can't spell!

In the end it was not guns or bombs that defeated the aliens, but that humblest of all God's creatures... the Tyrannosaurus rex.

Odobenacetops?
Odobenocetops is right! You know, I don't collect any prehistoric mammals as of the moment, but I would have to make an exception if an Odobenocetops was produced. I bet any company could do a pretty good job at making one.

Mojo should just scrap their dinosaurs and crank out LOTS of cenozoic creatures.
