Voting ends when they get revealed.
And honestly, I don't like the bases they put on some dinosaurs (ex: Torvosaurus).

I think you mean Torvosaurus, not Torosaurus. ;)

Neosodon

Collecta has allot of onrithapods but none of them are really that good and they are all a little on the small side. I would  trust safari more to do the Shantungosaurus but I'm curious to see how their attempt at one would turn out. It has been a few years since they last did one so maybe they'll surprise us.

"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

I kinda want to see them do a  Supreme Microraptor or something else similar in that scale. 

Halichoeres

I would like to see them do an entire year of Permian and/or Triassic animals.

There is no way CollectA will make a superior Kaprosuchus than Papo or WS. It's not going to happen  :P

Sauroposeidon? really? It's going to be 1/70 scale. If y'all are cool with that.

I'll be counting on it.

Flaffy

Eh, papo's crocs are nice and realistic, but what they depicted is not true to the fossil evidence.
The Wild Safari one is nice, but for me it doesn't really give me the croc vibe.

ZoPteryx

Honestly, I'd be happy with anything remotely exotic, which of course is CollectA's specialty.  ;D  I voted for the pterosaurs, Deinonychus and Troodon (when was the last time they did a raptor?), and Saichania (a good one is long overdue!).

I like the idea of more Supreme smaller dinos and pterosaurs.  Darwinopterus, Anuragnathus, Caviramus, Yi, Microraptor, and Anchiornis would all be great options.

Ha, maybe it'll be a Supreme.

Takama

I voted All ornithopods

Because there needs to be more made in this day and age


ceratopsian

I would like them to make a model of the troodontid Mei long curled up in the pose documented by its fossil remains, like a sleeping bird.  For that matter I'd like any firm to make a good model of Mei in this pose!

That would be fantastic. It strikes me as more of a Kaiyodo move, but it also wouldn't surprise me from CollectA.

Yes, it struck me as something CollectA might have a go at.  It seems strange that (to my knowledge) it hasn't attracted toy/model makers, as it tells us something about life-time behaviour.

Actually would not mind this idea myelf, provided they avoid the obvious pitfalls and produce something potentially realistic or somewhat likely....sure why not?
Authors with varying competence have suggested dinosaurs disappeared because of meteorites...God's will, raids by little green hunters in flying saucers, lack of standing room in Noah's Ark, and palaeoweltschmerz—Glenn Jepsen

I would imagine CollectA would be really good at a new Psittacosaurus mongoliensis.They could also possibly take a crack at Yutyrannus huali as well sometime.Either one of those at any size would be fine by be. :)
