They site seems to be down since this morning. I can't access either.

Indeed, in the Safari website you can not be accessed from this morning, but with respect to the website of Collecta takes weeks I think no sign is as locked.

Saw this on Safari's website, I have no idea if it's new or not but I don't recognize the sauropod.

That's been there since last week at least, when I was on it!

Aren´t those the Apatosaurus from the discontinued "Great dinos" subline?

It's not new. It's the Great Dinos Apatosaurus.

This is probably obvious, but the site's being/been updated. Of the ones recently revealed, aside from the T. rex and Velociraptor, I really like the Kronosaurus, Quetzalcoatlus, and the Tylosaurus. Yep that one's just been revealed on FB, although I like what was shown of it in the promo image prior. Wonder how that one will look alongside the Kronosaurus.

Edit: I've seen they called the Kronosaurus a dinosaur, lol. Wonder if they did that for any of the others that are not dinosaurs. "This dinosaur grew up to 33 ft long." I really do like the color scheme on this one though, even if it is similar to the Liopleurodon.

It'll be nice to have another mosasaur figure with a fluked tail!

Photos of Kronosaurus have also been added to Safari's website: https://www.safariltd.com/kronosaurus

I love that Kronosaurus is getting attention again. I also love the sculpting, whoever did it. I look forward to comparing this toy alongside the CollectA Pliosaurus.  :)

And yet I still wish that it didn't have the same old WWD colour scheme that nearly every pliosaur toy receives.  :(

The Coelophysis,Velociraptor and the two marine reptiles, are my favorites (so far).
In case anyone missed it,you will be happy to know that the Kronosaurus model now seen on Safari's site actually DOES have a minimal tail fluke on it.
Don't you hate it when you legitimately compliment someone's mustache and she gets angry with you?

suspsy

The Feathered T. rex still doesn't have an image up last time I checked, but the information is there. Disappointingly, it says it will only be available Dec. 1.

Silvanusaurus

These marine reptiles are certainly far more enticing than this years Pleiosuchus. The scale detailing on the Tylosaurus alone is amazing, hopefully it won't be obscured with factory paint-work.

Patrx

I admit, I wasn't expecting to be particularly impressed by either marine animal, especially the pliosaur - but I was incorrect, they both look great! Check out all those little scale details on the Tylosaurus, it really looks like a big aquatic monitor!

Well, based on what we've seen so far I would rank my priority level as follows...

These first three are basically tied. The Tyrannosaurus and Velociraptor are without equal in the mass market. Both toys finally do the genera they represent justice. The Coelophysis is a must have, I've wanted a good one for years. The fact that it's feathered is a surprising bonus. The paint scheme is beautiful. Even if no one ever makes another Coelophysis this one will be sufficient.
Tyrannosaurus
Coelophysis
Velociraptor


Love these two. Probably won't be part of my first order but must haves in my book. I have the Carnegie Microraptor (and the toob one as well) but this new one is superior to them both as far as I can tell. The only Kronosaurus I have is the Schleich (Yikes!). I have the Carnegie Giga but this sculpt looks terrific. Not big on the color pattern but I can live with it.
Microraptor
Giganotosaurus
Kronosaurus


These, I'll get when I can. I still need the Carnegie Tylosaurus so I'm not too keen on this new one. I prefer pterosaurs in a walking posture (for display purpose) but I don't actually own a Quetz yet and this one is really good. I already have several Parasaurolophus models that are pretty good. If I see the Safari in a store I'll no doubt grab it though.
Quetzalcoatlus
Parasaurolophus
Tylosaurus


Can't wait to see the rest! Especially the Einiosaurus!  8)

Tylosaurus coloring honestly I do not like those kind colors tiger fish.
The paint around the eyes looks like makeup or mascara that does not convince women cast her figure.

I'll take difference with the tylosaurus Carnegie, had more natural colors. On the other hand they said that on Monday the photos of tyrannosaurus rex feathered, feathered and giganotosaurus be revealed velociraptor is not serious by Safari.

They said they would unveil these figures Monday

tyrantqueen

The Tylosaurus looks quite good. I still like the Carnegie Tylo a lot. It's not as accurate (namely it's missing the tail fluke) but I think it has a superior factory paintjob.

SpartanSquat

Doug did you make the Tylosaurus? I see a pattern of scales similar to your work

Mo_the_Triceratops_King

The last fethered T-Rex was so impressive, if they can hold this level of detail..it would be great. The new fether T-Rex looks great too but the rest....im not really convinced.
Too many good dino modells on the market, to less space. I only collect the best looking.  :D
