Dinosaur Model wanted for tabletop purpose

[Xarxorx]

Hello guys,

i hope my request fits into this forum. I didn't know where to post it. So if it fits somewhere else please move my thread and thanks in advance.
Anyways i hope you dino toy experts can help me.

I'm a 80's kid and was a huge dinosaur fan. I got some Dinosaur toys and Dino Riders were one of my favorite tv shows. I'm also a tabletop enthusiast.
With my current project i want to combine my old affection with the tabletop. That's the reason why i'm currently building an Eldar Exodite Army click
(Be aware of Dinosaurs with lasers, dont click if you dont like )

Anyways here comes why i need your help:
I want to build a special "big" dinosaur as the coronation of the collection. I would like to have an Apatosaurus or a Brachiosauris as base.
I took a look and serveral dinosaur models and most of them didn't fit for me. Most hadn't as much as details as i wanted others were to big in scale.
Since you guys are experts i hope you can help me to find a model, which fits my ideas.

Look like: Apatosaurus/Brontosaurus, Brachiosaurus
Material: Hardplastic, Resin, Vinyl (from best to ok)

Size: (Up to...)
Length: 10" (25cm)
Height: 6" (15cm)
Wide: 4-5" (8cm)
1:48

I bought the Horizon Apatosaurus, but it's to big. (meh)
I really like the Apatosaurus from David Krentz, but i don't know if it's fits. click

Looking forward for your suggestions and a big thanks. I'm glad i found a forum like this.

An Apatosaurus in 1:48 with a length of 25 cm would be a juvenile.
But I know that 1:48 for some Diorama builders means something different than for us scale nerds.
The Krentz Apatosaurus is about 25 cm long and about 8 cm high, which is anatomically correct - probably your best choice.

In about 1:48 I would recommend Invicta, Wild Safari or Papo.

Maybe the Kabaya Seismosaurus is interesting for you, it's about 30 cm long.

From what I understand, GW's minis are 1:48 in scale. Wild Safari's Apatosaurus was around 1:43 to 1:51 scale.



Favorite's old Apatosaurus was 1:50 (not the plastic toy, the resin statue) Could be a little tricky to find though

Wouldnt one of the Invicta sauropods fill the bill rather nicely and then he could just paint it?

Thanks for your replys. I think that will help me a lot.
Will try to compare the Krentz one and the Invicta looks fine too.
