A Dakosaurus would be a great figure.

I agree, that would be cool! I don't think anyone's done it yet.
I have one by Safari, I believe in the Prehistoric "Crocodiles" toob.

To my knowledge, both Leedsichthys as Xiphactinus to date have not been any in the traditional toy market. Unfortunately.

I wouldn't turn down a Leedsichthys if one were to turn up but personally,I would much rather see a Jurassic marine reptile. :)
Don't you hate it when you legitimately compliment someone's mustache and she gets angry with you?

Shonisaurus

For example, a ictiosaurus as dearcmhara shawcrossi recently discovered this year.

I will definitely buy a Xiphactinus :)
Leedsichthys would be great also, but it will probably be too small

Xiphactinus would be great, but the Leedsichthys is much larger than the Xiphactinus.

But the truth and the truth is less exotic Leedsichthys the fish aquarium hell.

amargasaurus cazaui

but if you eliminate Mosasaurus for being from the Cretaceous, then you also have to eliminate the x-fish too.....although I would really love seeing that one done....the most famous specimen is from Kansas and is at the Sternberg museum in Hays where I recently visited.

I know that leedsichthys is bigger than xiphactinus
What I am saying is that a figure of the first one will probably be too small(Im one of those who really cares about the scale of my figures)

Aw... what a shame... seeing safari make one would be great since their other marines were also pretty good ( except the mosasaurus)

Yeah, that Mosasaurus was somewhat out of character for Safari. Personally, I'm rooting for anything other than Plesiosaurus and Ichthyosaurus, because there are enough of both on the market as it is (including Safari's gorgeous rendition of the latter for the Carnegie collection).
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.

Sometimes I draw pictures

I'm hoping it'll be either Metriorhynchus or Rhomaleosaurus.

Shonisaurus

Metriorhynchus Rhomaleosaurus prefer to not upset me but a second figure of this fantastic animal. Taking as that of Collecta in parts not convince me.

DinoLord

Huh, almost a week after the hint and still no updates. I wonder what they have in store for us....  ???

Halichoeres

Yeah, weren't all the WS figures known by this date for the last several years?

Yeah, they usually reveal them in either September or August, this is really late for them.

No news from ANY company, a part from the usual Rebor teasing...
Run!

True, but Safari is always the first to reveal their new products.
