Ok here is the Last Poll.  Its the Ceratopsians. Everyone knows Safari loves them.   With this in mind, Im sure if they keep going with there trend, we will see these species eventually.   I also added a Pachycephalasaur option since there was not any suggested in the suggestions thread, but i fee like we were leaving them out. Since they are related to Ceratopsains, i gave you a chance to pick one for its spot.


sauroid

i picked Pentaceratops, Protoceratops, Styracosaurus
"you know you have a lot of prehistoric figures if you have at least twenty items per page of the prehistoric/dinosaur section on ebay." - anon.

amargasaurus cazaui

Not surprisingly i voted psittacosaurus...along with aquilops, and my final pick was one I have been suggesting for awhile now, protoceratops.
Authors with varying competence have suggested dinosaurs disappeared because of meteorites...God's will, raids by little green hunters in flying saucers, lack of standing room in Noah's Ark, and palaeoweltschmerz—Glenn Jepsen

A Protoceratops in the size of the other current ceratopsians would go pretty well with the newest Carnegie Velociraptor.

I went with Aquilops, Psittacosaurus, and Stegoceras, because WS has been giving a large ceratopsian every year since 2012. Time for some variety.

I picked Kosmoceratops, Einiosaurus and Psittacosaurus. Kosmoceratops is my all time favourite dinosaur, I'd happily own as many models (as long as they're good quality) of it as possible. It's very underrepresented in toy form and is love to see Safari Ltd's take on it. Einiosaurus because it's my 2nd favourite ceratopsian and none of the major brands (at least from what I'm aware of) have made one, and Psittacosaurus because ever since I was commissioned to draw one for my good friend Amargasaurus cazaui, I've really been fascinated by the cute little things. :)

Of been dying for an Einiosaurus for ages. Also voted for Centrosaurus and Protoceratops. Wish Sinoceratops was on the list but all well, I would like one of those too.

DinoLord

I picked Anchiceratops, Protoceratops, and Psittacosaurus. Honestly the old Styracosaurus is pretty good even by current standards (at least the green paint variant).

In my case,Styracosaurus is my childhood favorite ceratopsian,so I don't want to just settle for a decade old outdated one as "good enough" when a new one could have the potential to be among the best of it's kind ever made. :)
And I went with Centrosaurus and Torosaurus too. ;D
Don't you hate it when you legitimately compliment someone's mustache and she gets angry with you?


amargasaurus cazaui

Given how Doug knocked his Nasutoceratops sculpt out of the park it would seem that whatever ceratopsian he chooses next will be an excellent figure to have...........but if he does decide to ever tackle psittacosaurus I have a library of reference material he can have to help with it. .....lol.

Yes,that is true.There isn't a single "bad" choice in the names listed in the poll. :)

Doug is clearly a maestro when it comes to ceratopsians, so I'd very much like to see his take on Protoceratops and Torosaurus, two popular genera that don't have a truly outstanding representation in toy form. I also selected Medusaceratops, which is just a cool animal with a cool name.

Concavenator

I went with Aquilops,Psittacosaurus and Kosmoceratops.

laticauda

I placed my votes with Coronosaurus, My new favorite Ceratopsian Utahceratops, and I would love to see a brand new Psittacosaurus.

Saurian

Soory,my English is poor

Takama

Current highest

Protoceratops

Psittacosaurus

and Torosaurus

Im thinking about locking the poll since we have some clear winners  Anyone say Nay or OK? :)

DinoLord

I think the poll could be left open for at least a bit more; there are some close contenders for 3rd. Does anyone know when in the year Safari generally decides what species to do for the year after next (IIRC Doug has mentioned he is already working on next year's sculpts). It would probably be a good idea to keep these polls open until then.

Takama

I unlocked the poll. Here is an idea. Once Safari Releases info on next years models, i will lock the polls and send the winners to Safaris Facebook

After that, I will call out for new Suggestions then i can edit the poll by removing the winners and maybe add new additions as well as leaving the ones that were on there the first time around.

(I hope you guys appreciate this little service im doing for you, It was Dans Idea to do this)
