Papo

[XCLASSGAMING]

I've been hearing some rumours about Papo making a Kaprosuchus. Does anyone have any information on this?

Wow where did you heard that ?

On this very forum. I can't remember the thread....

I have seen that floating around too dunno where though...I think it might be in the 2015/16 wish list threads idk

[POP of FAN]

I've been hearing some rumours about Papo making a Kaprosuchus. Does anyone have any information on this?

Yeah, it is official. Papo is releasing Kaprosuchus. Maybe next year or if delayed, slightly later, i think? 

Remember that it was Papo Korea that announced about feathered velocirpator and Baryonyx?
I directly acquired this info from the exact same source from Papo Korea.

So, it ain't a rumour, folks. Consider it... "confirmed", if you know what i mean.

Thats cool  i mean, just look at papo nile crocodile

[tanystropheus]

Is Baronyx a 2015 release?

[POP of FAN]

Is Baronyx a 2015 release?

Given that it was in the PRC factory last May-ish, I would think "highly likely"?
Well, would be even better if they release it by the end of this year.

I'm not sure if that's entirely good. Papo has a habit of basing their dinos on Sideshow or popular media- and the only Kaprosuchus in popular media is this monstrosity:

But if it's anything like their Nile Crocodiles (and Gharial) then it's probably going to be great. May I ask where you found the information? Where did you hear about it?

I didn't hear about it, I directly asked Papo Korea about it.
and Papo Korea even made a public announcement on Kaprosuchus model on its blog:

Hope that helps.

Awesome. I hope it will be a stunner!

WOW! A Kaprosuchus! Well beside Kothogasuchus (Yeah looks like Kothoga from the Relic) I think the sculptor will make an own version like Ankylosaurus. The other I think are Iguanodon, Giganotosaurus, Feather Velociraptor and Baryonyx.

I hope your correct!  Those are a great list!

Sorry to break it into you, but Iguanodon and Giganotosaurus are currently under discussion but aren't definitively decided as their next model. (Trust me, I heard it directly from the sculptor. He's just "thinking about" those models.)

On the contrary, [Baryonyx-> feathered raptor and kaprosuchus] is official. I don't know if they will release these three models at the same time next year, but among these three Baryonyx will be the first i believe.

Well Giganotosaurus could be one, remember the mini dinosaurs, one is a Giganotosaurus. Probably will be a time exclusive at the end of the year.
And next models...I believe we will see Jurassic World version like Mosasaurus, Apatosaurus, Dimorphodon and Ekrixinatosaurus (Indominus) and more far...probably a Ceratosaurus based in Sideshow one!

[KeU]

Giganotosaurus unlikely this year or the next as POP of FAN said. But definitely coming in the next few years.
The sculptor (Mr Seo?) did mention that he is pushing to do the Giganotosaurus to Papo in his interview.

ALSO asked that question as well.... Since it was made by a different sculptor, when i asked about it he had no idea about the composition of this mini dino tube. ;-)
To my knowledge Papo has as many as 8 sculptors; Mr. Seo being one of them mostly covering Papo's Dinosaur line (excluding two sea creatures and mammoth, and... mini dino tube;)), mutant line, and Felidae line.

Kaprosuschus will be awesome  .

My apologies. I've just checked the 'original' source one more time (http://blog.naver.com/eurofd/220371793092), and....
Iguanodon is a go. (but he said he's "planning"... so i don't think it will be out next year though... )

I don't know who gave you that translation. But that one can be a bit misleading....
It is true that his comment sounds a bit confusing though; can't be quite sure if he WILL sculpt it eventually or will just think about it...
Let me give you a word-by-word translation anyway. So you be the judge.

답변:

미니공룡세트는 제가 조형한 제품들이 아닙니다.
기가노토사우루스는 티라노사우루스와 다른특징이 무엇인지
어떤 특성이 있는지 연구해보고  언제쯤 조형할지 생각해 보도록 하겠습니다."

"As regards mini dino tube and giganotosaurus
Answer:

Mini dino tube is not my work.
And with giganotosaurus, first I will study what different characteristics giganotosaurus has from T-rex, and what characteristics it has. After that, I will think about when I will sculpt this dinosaur."

[terrorchicken]

when I first saw the Safari kaprosuchus figure online I had never heard of kaprosuchus and thought it was this enormous monstrous t-rex eating croc! I was disappointed to later find out its not a very big animal, quite average sized for a crocodilian.  The safari figure(due to the scale they used) made it seem like its this gigantic monster ala deinosuchus.

[Patrx]

To me, the Wild Safari Kaprosuchus is one of the best mass-produced prehistoric animal figures around. As such, I can't say I'm particularly intrigued by the notion of Papo making their own version. At best, it'll be just as good as something I already have.
