This Baidu thread reports some new limited edition expensive PSNO statue:

1200.00 and it's...well..not the best one I've seen from PNSO.

$1200...Yeah, I'm good...

I honestly got scared and thought this was they're yutyrannus for a second.

SidB

Wow, you're certainly right with "expensive."

Wow, it looks awesome, but.. the price not so much.

I am the cutest Fluffysaurus you have ever seen!

I see a tyrannosaurid attacking an oviraptorid. What species are these?

The tyrannosaurid looks like a Qianzhousaurus, but I can't identify the oviraptorid.

All I could get was this translation of the post:
Quotepnso first out in the new year, Qianzhou Dragon hunts South Kanglong

So, it's Qianzhousaurus. But, the Oviraptorid's identity still eludes me. Based on the crest, it could be Corythoraptor.

Those two dinosaurs were previously identified in this thread as Qianzhousaurus and Nankangia: http://dinotoyblog.com/forum/index.php?topic=4503.msg206980;topicseen#msg206980

Also from Chuang's artwork.

If it's a go, then it will be interesting to see how the Safari Qianzhousaurus, likely at a fraction of the price, stacks up against it.

More and more I'm starting to believe in the theory that PNSO is done with their 1:35 Museum Series line and will focus more on larger expensive sculptures, their line of minis and the more recent prehistoric animals that accompany your growth line. All the figures released under the Museum Series line were sculpts from before PNSO went through whatever internal issues they had and it has been suggested that they were sculpted by a different sculptor. Since the Giganotosaurus and Yangchuanosaurus were released we haven't had any new figures from that line that I know of. Also the newer line seems to use a different method of sculpting the figures. I don't expect to see any more figures from that line or any which contain bases. I hope they prove me wrong. :)

Well that's a shame because the Yuty diorama is in that scale that the whatever that is priced at 1k+ USD is.

Whatever I guess. All I wanted was a decent, feathered Yuty ahahaha 😒

Anywho better to be optimistic about it regardless.

S @Syndicate Bias what about the Wild Safari Yutyrannus?

PNSO still hasn't released some figures that were shown with bases, e.g. Gigantoraptor, Tsintaosaurus, Sinosauropteryx, Microraptor, Huayangosaurus and Yangchuanosaurus on its own.

Or the Favorite figures, or the Takara Tomy or Kaiyodo. There's also Dan's Dinosaurs model, if you want a resin model.

I agree with Sim's suggestion that some of those older sculpts, at the very least, will still be released. I personally like the un-based figures and the miniatures, but I know a lot of people like the higher end figures with bases (and I do have a few of the latter, too). I don't have any idea what the relative sales/margins look like, but it seems like there's room in the market for all three categories of figures from them.
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.

I have it along with my safari Giga and uh, the Carcha as well. Only Yuty I own at the moment and the only one I'll probably have for a while it seems. I don't even like the resin kits that are out of it.

The PNSO Yuty is the best one of the bunch in my opinion but I guess I'll just have to wait and see. avatar_Sim @Sim

If you're referring to a lot of the figures found in this link, https://tieba.baidu.com/p/5796347438, my guess is that many of them look like high priced statues or atleast sculpts of similar size to their Ceratosaurus. That's how I see it but I could be wrong.

Thanx avatar_Sim @Sim. I've seen many photos but these must have slipped my mind. I wonder what size they'd be in as the Sinosauropteryx and Microraptor definitely wouldn't be in 1/35 scale like the others with bases.
