Pachycephalosauria: The Other Marginocephalians

Pachyrhinosaurus

I noticed there hasn't been a thread for this group yet. Pachycephalosaurs aren't exactly numerous or diverse in toy form, with really only one species on the market (depending on what you think about dracorex). Hopefully that will change in the future with more and more obscure species being made each year.
First, the Carnegie pachys, which look rather out of place unless you have two:

Next, the fantastic Wild Safari dracorex, my personal favorite:


The Papo, Jurassic Park Series 2, and CollectA pachys:

The next one is a cast of a stegoceras skull. I'm not exactly sure which specimen it is:

Hahaha love that battle scene! I think we need more pachycephalosaurs! Other species besides Pachycephalosaurus would be nice.

Wow, I'm surprised there wasn't a pachycephalosaur thread! I agree that we need more than just the Hell Creek trio, whether they be one, two, or three genera. It's particularly baffling that there are essentially no Stegoceras figures, considering that many very good specimens are known. But there is at least one other genus in toy form: the Yowie Prenocephale.

.

Maybe when I get some time I'll add the Kaiyodo and Furuta figures, unless someone else posts them first!

A few to add:

One of the many Stygimoloch figures released as a result of its appearance in Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, the Takara Tomy Ania version


And another one


And finally, from the 90s, a minuscule Stegoceras from Ideal's Transmutazors line:


Maybe somebody else can add some of the Mattel versions of Stygimoloch!

As I noted in my collection thread, Mofun's other products are all bootlegs. If this is also a bootleg, I'd like to know what the original looked like!

I've noticed that a small percentage of Chinasaurs seem to be originals and this looks like one of them - I can't recall any other figures that this could be based off. I also have this one and try to buy any that look like originals, having about half a dozen or so now (group pic on my collection thread a page or so back from the latest posts).

Pays to keep an eye on Ali Express for these, with 'newest' as the search criteria.

I can affirm that Safari pachycephalosaurus is perhaps by far the best marginocephalus made to date with abyssal difference.

Here is my full Pachycephalosaur collection.
Top Row: the first 2 are chinasaurs I found at a flea market. The other 3 are Mattel ones.
Middle Row: The 4 ones on the left side are Mattel Stygimoloch (how did I get so many?) The 2 on the right are Mattel's Dracorex (I don't have the Safari ones but that might change soon)
Bottom Row: Green one on the left is the possibly Toyway Homalocephale. I got it when I was little so I don't know where to direct you. Next is Safari's toob Pachycephalosaurus, Mattel mini Stygimoloch, and Safari's Dracorex skull.

Halichoeres

Nice assortment. I've seen that figure on the left sold as a Saurolophus as well; it's just crude enough that it can be all ornithischians to all people...

The pair of stygimoloch is very well achieved, by the way those arrowheads that I see in the diorama are prehistoric plants or is it a fantastic decoration ?, I am intrigued.

The Blackhorse pair is amazing. Wish I hadn't passed on this now!
