[Dilopho]

Sorry guys but I am a bit of a novice here but I cannot find these blessed images on fb of the 2016 releases as I would like to know there new animal releases as well.

Can someone pls help?

Yes I know about the dino pics I just want to see the other releases from Papo like wild life and marine life. I can't seem to find them.

I fail to see how the Baryonyx is any less believable than their first 'sitting' t-rex or velociraptor, which if compared to the anatomy of the 'real' animals, look absolutely ridiculous. I realise those are based on Jurassic Park and the Baryonyx isn't, but I'm just talking about them as models in and of themselves. The new Baryonyx looks more like a real animal to me than those two, even if it is quite far-fetched. It definitely seems to me that it isn't designed as an upright animal, but is simply in an admittedly unusual upright pose.

Even if it is anatomically correct I feel that the Baryonyx is still missing the believable and naturalistic look that is even in the worst scientifically inaccurate dinosaurs that papo makes. Their first 'sitting' t-rex and velociraptor may be inaccurate but they still seem like something that could exist in nature and not like a monster.

Monster is a relative term. To a canary, a cat is a monster.

Yo took that from JW LOL

The new Papo Tiger is also in a tripod position. We know tigers don't walk around like that, and just probably a position it held for a few seconds (fighting, or trying to intimidate a rival). So, why can't they cut the Baryonyx some slack? It's a bipedal (or occasional quadruped/biped?) creature already, and just because the tail's on the ground, doesn't mean that Papo intended this to be a tail-dragger.

Good points on the jaw though, it doesn't resemble what's known from the fossil. But it's artistic, and I like it.

This.

This times two!

I mean it is pretty clear that this is by no means a neutral position.

As for the Tiger, if you position it between the old one and the Tiger Mutant, you get some sort of evolutionary chain...

Knowing that Papos Dino and Big Cat Sculptor likes to Sculpt mutants, i would not be surprised if that were the case

Btw papo 2016 animal figure is pretty interesting. I love the standing tiger and the scorpion. Papo animal figure is the specialist of the big cats. Papo big cats is always amazing

So after reading comments about the Bary. If it looks like a moster or a beliaveble animal and all that stuf.....

As I already expresed I initialy thought that it look like a scaly monster, the posture and the bulkiness look were also not good.

BUT the Papo Allosaurus also has a scaly monster vive in the catalog picture, but in person looks more like a beliaveble animal, so in the final product it may look good actually, also about the bulky look, as some have said it might be due to the angle of the picture, so maybe in person it will not look that "fat".

To summarize, the final figure could look like beliaveble animal or still look like a monster.

But no matter how the figure turns out, It still has a Spinosaurus-like head instead of the proper Baryonyx head, sadly

I don't know....My final judgment will come when the figure is released

Wow 16 pages...first of all. I have to say this is wow.
- Feathered Velociraptor: I was thinking like most of you...a Jurassic Parkk bull eater velociraptor with feathers. But its very majestic and beautifull.
- Kaprosuchus: I only can say...SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!
- Baryonyx: I thought in other way. But I like the T. Marshall air. The head at the same time its strange because its more spinosaurus than baryonyx. The talk about tripod pose, I dont mind, for me looks like a Bear that its defending its catch from another predator or from another Baryonyx.

For the repaints...why a velociraptor green? Why not retire the old one that its suppose to be JP3 raptor? And why repaint the V-rex...sorry Running T-rex. I think the green was perfect!

[LophoLeeVT]

whew! i am lucky that i bought green runnig rex before it got retired!

[empire3569]

Out of curiosity I whipped this up quickly (please don't judge my MS paint skills )



Definitely looks better as a spinosaurus than a baryonyx. I wonder how hard this mod would be to accomplish....

[stargatedalek]

I honestly don't see why the head is any more like a Spinosaurus than a Baryonyx. Both have the same general shape and the head crest, the under-bite is also incorrect for them both.

[tyrantqueen]

Might as well sculpt a whole new body, given what we now know about Spino.

The only customising I'm thinking of doing is extending the upper mandible, to get rid of the underbite. I hated the messed up dentition on the running rex and I don't care for it here either.

Also, I am now 25

[Gwangi]

without reading all 16 pages here are my thoughts...

Love the Velociraptor. From what I've seen so far this is the model of the year. I've waited far too long for a properly feathered and realistic Velociraptor. Was really stoked that Carnegie was doing one but was let down by the final result. This Papo model still doesn't look quite as "birdy" as I would like but it's still the best Velociraptor to date IMO.

The Kaprosuchus is stunningly realistic. Probably their best of this year's crop. But I have the Safari model already. Since I primarily collect dinosaurs I'm not sure that I need two models of this genus. It's not a priority for me but I'll have to get it eventually I'm sure.

The Baryonyx reminds me a lot of the Papo Allosaurus in terms of overall design. I'm not sure about the stance that it's in but I think a lot of my reservations have more to do with the angle of the picture than anything else.

The repaints? Don't care about those.

[tanystropheus]

As far as detailing and texturing is concerned, the Baryonyx exceeds the Spinosaurus in every way. As stated earlier, it does have a Todd Marshall flavor to it; dewlaps and jagged scutes are a visual treat.

The bizarre pose is a nice nod to Baryonyx's facultative quadrupedal status, as if the animal is having a bit of difficulty maintaining that bipedal stance. Props to Papo for doing their research...and then messing up the underbite. Go figure! Beautiful figure, nonetheless.

I love the articulated jaws on all the models. The next logical step would be ball jointed necks, please. Imagine the number of poses you could get!

It would be nice if Papo introduces a line of prehistoric suchus.

I think you're giving them too much credit.

I would have to disagree with the Allosaurus looking like a "monster". Yes, it does have spiky scales but there used in a way that seems naturalistic almost like the scales of a crocodile, along with a nice stream like pose, and that makes the allo one of papos best in my opinion.

Getting back to the important stuff which is that the actual figure can look different than the stock image.... of corse it's going to look different (every figure does) but the only changes well probably see in the final figure are just gonna be differences in the paint job, for the most part I think what were seeing is what were getting, no matter the camera angle, what were getting is a scaly, pregnant, monster baryonyx... the first of its kind ....

I also feel like I've been beating this figure up.... at the end of the day I still don't like it and my expectations where not meet but it is a papo so yes it will hold a place in my heart.

Exactly. I see everyone compalining about its head and pose, but it is the legs that annoy me more than they should. They look short and weak and there is not nearly enough muscle on them to hold such a big and bulky body.

I don't think that the papo allosaurus looks like a monster. IN PERSON looks like a real animal. IN THE CATALOG PICTURE HE DOES HAVE a scaly monster vive, but It doesnt look completely like a monster.

Besides, Is also one of my favorite papos

[Dilopho]

Th baryonyx looks like it has two crests on the head.
I love the Barry!
