PNSO dinosaurs

[Dobber]

Awesome news! I just ordered one!

[Silvanusaurus]

So is it just me or are the hands on the Spinosaurus really, really weird?



There are two fingers and then a thumb that seems to protrude half way up the lower arm, I haven't seen that on a Spinosaurus before, what is the meaning of this? I'm not very up to date with Science so maybe I'm missing something, but it looks really bizarre.
Anyway, as far as the figure overall goes, it's beautifully detailed but there is still something lacking for me. Maybe it's weight, or flesh, or dynamism? I find it very hard fathoming how this animal is actually standing off the ground like that, or even how it would move to be there. I wish they had gone all out with a swimming/floating pose. Is it too much to ask that someone make a Spinosaurus with a bit of rotundity, or is that unfashionable now? 

[LeapingLaelaps]

Yeah the hands/thumb seem super strange looking to me too

[Shonisaurus]

I like the spinosaurus of PNSO but for now it is not my favorite although it is a beautiful figure that is confused with a real resin figure and that is immense (half a meter). There is one that has stolen my heart and belongs to Papo. I hope you do not disappoint me.

Zhao Chuang portrays it the same way in his paleoart.

You wouldn't happen to have his Giganotosaurus pictures anywhere on his book? @Ceratosaurus 

Was hoping maybe at least he drew it somewhere in one of them

I will soon. It's cleared customs and could be in my hands this week. This is  from a preview of the book. I can confirm it has a Giganotosaurus in it though.

Not sure what is going on with that hand, considering that the other once seems to be as you would expect.

However it's not enough to stop me placing an order for one of these as soon as I work out the finances.

Mine just shipped. Should be here by Saturday or Monday

Thanks! Can't wait to see what else PNSO has in store.

@acro-man where do all those leaks or I guess just pictures come from? The only model leak was the Spinosaurus and the stego and ankylo but nothing regarding anything else. Just curious since my only source is Tieba. sometimes i wish I could know what their schedule was like since who knows what models will be after the Spinosaurus lol. They said maybe Giganotosaurus and Spinosaurus mid year but it's obvious that wasn't the case as it's arrived earlier than expected. Now if only they answered my question regarding Lucas  I'm being Impatient. Apologies

[Shonisaurus]

I also want the PNSO giganotosaurus, in the absence of figures from this theropod this year it would be great if PNSO commercialized it soon. It is another of my most awaited figures along with spinosaurus. My PNSO spinosaurus will arrive on April 12 but I will not be at home and my Internet will not be operational either, since I am going on vacation from April 10 to 21.

Well, somebody heard news from PNSO taobao sales rep and spread it. Apparently such "news" often turn into rumours. Because PNSO is unlike big companies like Papo and CollectA who have everything scheduled. The sales rep doesn't know everything, he just says what he knows, like "the production is almost done", and people interpret it as "it will be released next week!!!!"

So the more you hear the more anxious you are, but there's really no such need for that.
What will come will eventually come. Just take it easy, pal.

Yeee you're right  no point in overthinking it.

Baidu is being spammed with dozens of pictures of the Spinosaurus. I think at this point I've got a pretty good idea of how it scales up with most dinos judging from that one comparison someone did with it and a rebor t rex and Wilson and the vitae giga. If the angles aren't weird and the pics are correct then that is one massive model

The hand looks to me like the proximal phalanges of digits II-III are webbed or syndactylous, in both the figure and the painting. That seems pretty reasonable to me, it would be useful for paddling and might also strengthen the manus for weight-bearing. But I don't know anything about theropods.

With all the very nice Spinosaurus figures out this year, the PNSO distinguishes itself by including a noble fish alongside the filthy theropod. It looks like an Onchopristis. a gigantic sawfish that was a contemporary of Spinosaurus. Much more appopriate than the Xiphactinus that came with the Pegasus kit. I don't know why its dorsal fin is all flopped over; that happens to beached cetaceans but I don't think a sawfish fin would be so flaccid.

@Toasaurus if you check Amazon mine says it now will deliver the Spinosaurus to Canada.

great deffently gonna pick it up

That makes sense, especially if it's weight bearing (given the standing pose), but then still makes those digits look really weirdly long.

Not amused to check in at Ali Express this morning and find that the sole listing for the Spinosaurus has now risen from $104 to $110 Australian. They are the only retailer available to me to have orders sent over here.

I was just juggling some finances towards placing an order and now this. I think I'll just give up!

[Shonisaurus]

As you can see the most indicated is to buy in this case the dinosaurs of PNSO in Amazon or Aliexpress, I passed a link to inflated prices on eBay. The difference in euros with respect to Amazon and Aliexpress of the PNSO spinosaurus with respect to eBay are obvious, link spinosaurus PNSO on eBay,

It's crazy price!

On the other hand, as can be seen in one of his images, the jaw is articulated.

It's also  already on Amazon at $75
