I've changed my mind a lot since I started collecting, of what I have now my favorites are

1. Favorite Saurolophus
2. Wild Safari 2017 Tyrannosaurus.
3.Battat Parasaurolophus (I think it would be second if I could fix that warped forelimb!)
4. Wild Safari Gryposaurus.
5. Wild Safari Sauropelta.

Hihi, nice to see this revived.... I should or could revise my own list I guess, got quite some additions since then.

Sigmasaurus

1. Carnegie Spinosaurus
2. Carnegie Giganotosaurus
3. Papo Cryolophosaurus
4. Safari LTD Feathered T. Rex
5. Old Gray Big Schleich Apatosaurus

Shonisaurus

For me it is a very difficult decision today I have many favorite dinosaurs but among the figures that I like the most are the following:


1. Tyrannosaurus rex feathered Safari
2. Tyrannosaurus rex feathered Collecta
3. Deinocheirus Safari
4. Styracosaurus Collecta 2017
5. Mamenchisaurus / triceratops PNSO.

Bowhead Whale

I would say my favorite dinosaur-prehistoric animal figures are my favorites not always because of accuracy, but also and mostly because they represent not-so-well-known species or have a sentimental value to me. I am also naming figures I succeeded acquiring. In no particular order:
- Starlux Drepanaspis. I paid so much for this lovely rarity!
- Bullyland Paratypothorax. Such a beautiful replica of this unknown species!
- Bullyland Deinotherium. The best deinotherium on the market, to my opinion.
- AAA large Entelodont. Its size matches the mounts of Masters Of the Universe (Mattel) and Dragons, Knights And Daggers (Imperial)
- AAA large Hyaenodon (same reason as Entelodont).

Archosauria


My favorite models are:

5. 1:40 CollectA spinosaurus (2014 version). I don't personally own this one, but I love the design and colors
4. The CollectA Mosasaurus. It's absolutely wonderful (and was rather hard to find for some reason).
3. The Papo Brachiosaurus. It's just awe inspiring and BIG. .
2. Safari ltd. 2017 Velociraptor. Oh how I love this one. It's like Mary Poppins; It's practically perfect in every way.
1. Carnegie Spinosaurus (2009). It's my prized possession! My ultimate find! Best $45 I ever spent!  ;D

Looks quite lively to me after a long hibernation ;)

So,... my top 5 changed a bit. Currently I'd name

PNSO/China Post Mamenchisaurus (that's so rich in detail, it looks like a shrunken version of the real animal)
CollectA Dimorphodon (single best figure for my in the 2017 lineup)
Safari Psittacosaurus (best Safari Figure in 2017 and totally underrated imo)
CollectA Daxiatitan (repainted mine as the original color are "meh", but the sculpt is nice)
Itoy Ceratosaurus (added lips, so it can close its mouth as it should)


PhilSauria

This is a toughie! How do you narrow it down to just five? (and I'll probably want to change the list moments after i hit 'post'), but here goes; and in no particular order

1 The Carnegie Spinosaurus - I value naturalism in figures and this looks like a living animal.
2 Another Carnegie (but not a Dinosaur, clearly) The Mammoth. Dynamic lifelike pose and sculpt.
3 Way out of my price range, but the Sideshow Apatosaurus. I'd love to see an affordable version in pvc.
4 The Safari Giganotosaurus - finally one of the manufacturers did this animal justice.
5 PNSO Triceratops 'Doyle'. Provided you keep the mouth closed another dynamic & lifelike model.

A close runner up would be the magnificent Safari feathered Velociraptor (great work Mr. Watson!)
