Maybe it is better to delete and write again this post

Though I would love to see any one of what's on the poll so far turn up,I'd say the Eurythrosuchus has the most mainstream appeal due to it's monstrous appearance. 
Then there is Edaphosaurus,a famous finback always seen in connection with Dimetrodon even in Charles R. Knight's paintings.

[sauroid]

i picked Edaphosaurus, Estemmenosuchus and other (Placerias). i was going to pick Moschops as the third choice but Placerias is more striking looking.

[Shonisaurus]

I understand that from a commercial point of view the Edaphosaurus would be a success for its resemblance regarding the thermoregulatory candle with dimetrodon.

It is a prehistoric animal that is very underrated and after the disappearance of tiny copy of Bullyland Edaphosaurus there is no market for traditional toys decent dinosaurs.

[Pachyrhinosaurus]

I went with Rutiodon, Dimetrodon, and also chose Placerias for other (before reading your post, sauroid).

[Halichoeres]

There are literally no bad ideas here.

[suspsy]

I went with Purussaurus for my third choice.

[Mauro "Raptor86"]

We need an Edaphosaurus

[Manatee]

I evidently like things ending with -suchus; I voted for Desmato (as an other), Lagano, and Estemmenosuchus. A Safari Desmatosuchus would be the greatest thing ever.

I have a thought about this particular poll that's not going to be very popular,but it's this:
The prehistoric crocodiles toob appears to have been retired,as it has a lower price in red on Safari Ltd.'s site as usual for items that they stop production on.
That doesn't speak much for the chances of anything in this poll seeing the light of day...

That's an interesting point. The crocs toob was released in what, 2010, 2011? What is the typical lifespan of a Safari product? I mean, some of the Carnegies lasted waaaaaay longer than they should have, but it does seem like the Wild Safari figures just kind of blink in and out of existence. Maybe more discouraging than the crocs toob is the very short run of the Scutosaurus. That said, Estemmenosuchus is much weirder looking, which has got to be a point in its favor.

I would actually love to be wrong about what I posted and actually see any of what's in the poll turn up.

Bump

Voting will be Closed at the end of the year

Agree with the comments re Edaphosaurus, there are a million Dimetrodon figures, but very few of it. I think it would be great if there was a Permian animals tube sometime - could have some interesting beasities.

One animal also seldom represented is Seymouria, one of the first reptiles. It would be good to have a small decent model of this available (though it looks like one is available on Shapeways: http://www.shapeways.com/product/VYPSCXVV3/seymouria-7)
.

Seymouria isn't a reptile.   Also, I recently read about modern classifications limiting reptiles to sauropsids, which would mean synapsids aren't reptiles.  It makes sense, although I can't find where I read this now...

Well, reptile-ish It could still go in a Permian tube, though point taken with modern classification of reptiles (afraid my default setting is based on the PG Tips Prehistoric Animals tea-cards album from the early 70s)!

Estemmenosuchus b/c its insane looking:




also would love another gorgonopsid like lycaenops...

[ceratopsian]

I voted for Estemmenosuchus - great visual appeal; Edaphosaurus - like others of you, I think it gets overlooked in favour of Dimetrodon and a different sail-back would be good.  Finally Placerias as "other".

[sauroid]

another "other" would be Smok wawelski. altho there is still doubt whether it's an Archosaur or a Theropod dino.
