A Carnotaurus would be fine, but I'd much prefer either Abelisaurus itself or Rajasaurus.

Actually, given how fragmentary Abelisaurus is, Aucasaurus or Majungasaurus would probably be a better candidate for a Safari abelisaur.

Yes, I feel as if there are enough excellent Carnotaurus models in the market. Another abelisaurid would be nice.

Also, considering the fact that the Carnegie Brachiosaurus altithorax is difficult to obtain and has skyrocketed in value, WS should attempt a remake of that model.

Yes finally somebody agrees with me about the Brachiosaurus, as I have that listed on my list.

I´m also for a new Brachiosaurus altithorax, BUT only if it is a BIG figure like the first Carnegie Brachiosaurus or the Papo Brachio, Which unfortunately does not seem likely to happen if we take a look at the size of sauropod figures these days..... :'(

And who tells us that they can make a brachiosaurus on the scale of the amargasaurus Safari 2018 or, without being on that scale, can be of a size much larger than that figure recalling the mythical figure of Carnegie? We can not be defeatists.

Is it too much to ask for a Kosmoceratops? ^-^

Hopefully no, and hopefully you will be listened, I want a Kosmoceratops so much too!

I fear that the days of great big sauropods from the Big Four (CollectA, Papo, Safari, and Schleich) are a thing of the past. I think the last one we got was the Papo Brachiosaurus back in 2012, and from what I recall, it wasn't a big seller.

I also agree that in 2019 a kosmoceratops is made by Safari.

A kosmoceratops made by Doug Watson that for me is a master in making ceraptosidos would be great. We also need a styracosaurus (updated).

- Saurornitholestes or another large troodontid: Nice and feathery!

Do you mean Saurornithoides?  Saurornitholestes is a dromaeosaurid.


Pachyrhinosaurus

I agree with the stegosaurus and allosaurus-- it'd be great to see them updated. Also, I wouldn't mind seeing:

Basilsaurus cetoides, the original, North American species
Sphodrosaurus pennsylvanicus
Centrosaurus, or Styracosaurus would be welcome, too
Camarasaurus
Gorgosaurus
Edaphosaurus
Eryops or Koskinodon
Stegomastodon
Teleoceros
Merycoidodon
Megaloceros
Rutiodon
Anomalocaris
Moa

The species that quotes without a doubt are greedy at one hundred percent. I also like that these figures make Safari we need new species as well as re-editions of dinosaurs and prehistoric animals as has happened with tyrannosaurus, triceratops and ankylosaurus. What I said I agree with those figures all made by Doug or another of Safari's sculptors would be very cool.

Faelrin

An updated Brachiosaurus would be nice, alongside many of the other older inaccurate Safari LTD figures such as the Dilophosaurus, Guanlong, Mosasaurus, Pteranodon, and Spinosaurus, aside from the Allosaurus and Stegosaurus too. I actually wouldn't mind an updated (and larger) Acrocanthosaurus too. Granted I don't think all of those should be remade for 2019, but maybe at some point in the years to come.

I'd still like to see a Carnotaurus done at some point, because it is one of my favorite theropods, and none of the available figures really do it for me. They either suffer from oversized arms (most suffer from this), a tripod tail (Carnegie and Battat), or too wide a head (Papo, Schleich, and Rebor), and shrinkwrapping (again a good number suffer from this, especially on the tail area since Carnotaurus is known to have huge tail muscles). I'm not against seeing another species less represented done, but I still feel like they ought to do this one. I mean if we could get two ceratopsians, and two sauropods this year, then why not two abelisaurids next year? I think Aucusaurus or Majungasaurus would be good choices for a second abelisaurid.

It's about 1:25 by my measuring tape.

To my honestly I would like a anteosaurus without scale, that was of a considerable size medium pulling to big like the ankylosaurus Safari 2018. Being bigger it has more possibilities of it being more detailed as long as it is well done and detailed and in that Safari never It disappoints us.  ;)

Anyway, I would not mind if it was made on the scale of inostrancevia. Sincerely there are figures of medium or medium-small size of Safari that are equal or better than many figures with large sizes. Examples are iguanodon, shunosaurus or suchomimus to give three examples.  :)

crimany. that would mean that anteosaurus would be roughly 8.82 inches at the same scale. that would be an epic figure
