Honestly, I don't care.  No matter what dinosaur they chose, the result will probably be a complete mess.

Well, what would be your least hated out of any?

Lanthanotus

I go with Libraraptor and sauroid in this,.....

.... in the 2017 lineup the only decent figure is the Stegosaurus (despite its uninspired and dull paint scheme), all the rest looks like bad cartoon dinos. While I would hope that the sculptor of the likes as Pentaceratops, Kentrosaurus or Stegosaurus comes up with a decent Maiasaurus, Iguanodon (am rather curious if the rumors about a Papo come true though) or Fukuisaurus, I really think that Schleich as a company doesn't care. In my opinion even their formerly great modern animal figures seem to loose in sculpting quality while CollectA and Safari get better with every year, but for some weird reason it's hard as finding a needle in a haystack to find a shop (besides online shops) that sells anything different than Schleich - I feel like they grab for world domination despite an obvious lack of quality in several of their products.

Silvanusaurus

I dont want to see any dinosaurs from Schleich for 2018, or ever again. There is only so much pain one's eyes can endure.

tanystropheus

I chose Ornitho, Pterano, Mosa and Plesio as these are the only models that Schleich would be reasonably good at.

I also picked Saltasaurus as it was one of their stand out models. They could probably do a decent job if they don't zombify it (e.g Barapa) or dumb it down (e.g Brachio)

CityRaptor

Given Schleich's current line up and the fact that they have a Marvel license, I once again say:
Devil Dinosaur
Sauron
Stegron
Jurassic Park is frightning in the dark
All the dinosaurs are running wild
Someone let T. Rex out of his pen
I'm afraid those things'll harm me
'Cause they sure don't act like Barney
And they think that I'm their dinner, not their friend
Oh no

Actually  I do have their Pentaceratops and Iguanodon and like them.And I dort have their Desmatosuchus,  too. If they just managed  to live up to this Level again I would not care about a species.

sauroid

if they'd revert back to what their prehistoric figures were like between 2000 to 2010 then i might recapture my fondness for Schleich's prehistoric figures again.

Schleich is getting worst from year to year so I'm no longer interested in that brand..  ???
I could buy again from Schleich only if they should return to the ReplicaSaurus quality.
If not, goodbye Schleich  ::)

Neosodon

I think shleich should just stick with some dinosaurs that no one could complain about a lack of scientific accuracy on such as....

Indominus Rex
Seismosaurus
Gigantosaurus

"3,000 km to the south, the massive comet crashes into Earth. The light from the impact fades in silence. Then the shock waves arrive. Next comes the blast front. Finally a rain of molten rock starts to fall out of the darkening sky - this is the end of the age of the dinosaurs. The Comet struck the Gulf of Mexico with the force of 10 billion Hiroshima bombs. And with the catastrophic climate changes that followed 65% of all life died out. It took millions of years for the earth to recover but when it did the giant dinosaurs were gone - never to return." - WWD

Thats the worst thing any comapney can make. I hope this is a joke

CityRaptor

Not to mention it is copyrighted.
Seismosaurus would be a large Diplodocus, therefore they can mess it up.

It's a joke. None of them are real. Shleich seems to have issues making dinosaurs that look real or scientifically accurate so they might as well make fake speicies.

Like I said before, they really should make use of their Marvel License to give us figures of Devil Dinosaur, Sauron and Stegron.

A Seismosaurus would be awesome, especially if it's huge.

ZoPteryx

They seem to do an okay job on armored dinosaurs, so I voted for those.  And a few hadrosaurs.  The world needs more hadrosaurs.

sauroid

i can appreciate quadrupedal Ornithischian figures by Schleich. it is safe to assume that they wont have out of proportion ridiculously huge feet and wont have dentures-like teeth like what they do with their Theropods.

CityRaptor

Yep. Although I guess they won't make Ornithopods, due to them not selling well. They probably also do not fit into Schleich's plans for the Dinosaurs line.
