Psittacosaurus doesn't get the same attention as Stegosaurus, or a theropod so there are few enough models it is within reason we might be able to add them all to the blog ..............more surprises to come

It certainly doesn't get as much attention as Stegosaurus, but I think Psittacosaurus is still among the better-respresented dinosaur genera in toys.  Psittacosaurus is definitely better represented in toy form than quite a number of theropods known from fairly good remains.  In fact, I think Psittacosaurus is better-represented than some entire theropod families e.g. Troodontidae and Ornithomimidae.

On the right side of the Dinosaur Toy Blog, there's a "Genera" section which I believe shows the genera with the most DTB entries.  Psittacosaurus is there, with 7 entries.  The theropod Gallimimus is also shown there with the same number of entries, although I think Gallimimus hasn't been represented as well as Psittacosaurus has.

There is at least one more to come for psittacosaurus, but I am pondering adding another two that are missing as well....which would bring the little fellow to at least ten I know of.....wait, lets make that eleven....
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 think I had that one at one point. Came with a glow in the dark skeleton.
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

Well, mine did. It was one of these flat skeletons one has to put together. You kow, thhe type usually also avaialable in wood. There was also an Aladar version.

Maybe yours was a slightly different version? As I say in the review, there were many different versions of the Disney's Dinosaur Carnotaurus. :)

In the kingdom of the blind, better take public transit. Well, in the kingdom of the sighted, too, really--almost everyone is a terrible driver.

Another first, Timpo. http://dinotoyblog.com/2018/08/31/tyrannosaurus-rex-timpo/
"It included a sauropod, Triceratops, Megatherium, Dimetrodon, and up for consideration today, a T. rex. (Let me know if I missed any!)"

Having a look at UK's magnificent "Uk - fascination with the Land of the Rising Sun" (page 4),
there is also a stegosaurus.
