Does anybody know what the small armoured Dunkleosteus-esqe fish is in this dinosaur lot?

To be honest, it looks more like a Coelacanth to me. Not a good model however.
Jurassic Park is frightning in the dark
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

That's not a bad fish actually, better than most of those dinosaurs easily.

Between that and the AAA gallimimus it could be a worthwhile lot if it stays cheap.

That's a weird one! The overall shape is a lot like one of the more rotund catfishes, but the fins do rather resemble those of a coelacanth. Might be worth asking the seller if there's anything printed on its belly.
In the kingdom of the blind, better take public transit. Well, in the kingdom of the sighted, too, really--almost everyone is a terrible driver.

They are IIRC AAA hatchlings based on the Battat dinosaurs. There's a stegosaurus in that lot too.
