New DTF banner (2016)

[DinoG]

Hi guys, what new model should feature in the DTF 2016 page header? Let's give Dr Admin some suggestions...

[alexeratops]

Papo Raptor,
WS Shunosaurus
Collecta Struthiomimus or Deinocheirus

[stargatedalek]

I'd say CollectA Beishanlong, Tyrannosaurus, or Spinosaurus, paired with Papo Velociraptor or Kaprosuchus.
But hey, we still haven't seen everything Kaiyodo and Favorite have to bring to the table.

[Halichoeres]

As things stand, I would probably go with the Papo raptor and Safari Shunosaurus OR the CollectA Beishanlong and Safari Shunosaurus.

[Yutyrannus]

Papo Kaprosuchus, Papo raptor, Safari Plesiosuchus, and Collecta Deinocheirus .

[Arul]

May i suggest papo feathered vraptor and one rebor figure (club selection/dimorphodon/acro) as some of the headliner ? we can use non-2016 (existed year) figure right ? Just like 2014 dtf header

Oh, and kaiyodo mosasaurus capsule series 2015 is cool

[tyrantqueen]

I vote for Papo Kaprosuchus and CollectA Beishanlong.

[Jetoar]

I vote for Papo Kaprosuchus and CollectA Beishanlong.

I think the same that you. They are a good choice  .

I third this suggestion!

I think there should be a Battat figure to honour Dan LoRusso's memory.

Good idea. I vote for Pachyrhinosaurus. In addition to being a great sculpt, it was also his favourite dinosaur.

[Patrx]

I like that idea! The question is, should it be one of the newer ones, or a classic BMOS figure?

[DinoLord]

I was thinking either one of the newer Terras or one of the BMOS reissues, as it would stand testament to the fact that even in his final days he still worked so hard to make new figures available to our community.

@tyrantqueen: I personally don't recall seeing where he said Pachyrhinosaurus was his favorite, but if that was the case then I think it'd be a great contender for the banner.

In an interview with Prehistoric Times he said Pachyrhinosaurus was his favourite.

I recall him mentioning it here too, and his avatar was a Pachyrhinosaurus.

Honouring Dan's memory is a wonderful idea, but wouldn't the Parasaurolophus, the Euoplocephalus, or the Stegosaurus make more sense given that they're (almost) being released in 2016?

That thought occurred to me too but the Pachy just felt like the most appropriate choice since it's one of his latest sculpts in addition to being his favorite dinosaur. Seems like deviating from the traditional recent release banner would be warranted in this case. Just my two cents though.

[Halichoeres]

I hadn't thought of that, but that's an excellent idea. Another vote for Pachyrhinosaurus!

I second that, a great way to honor a great man.
