The Mesosaurus is by Lu Feng Shan. Not sure where Kaiyodo came from. Cymbospondylus is by Max Salas. The Metoposaur could be considered a Metoposaurus. Here's a pic:

Thanks D @dinocat!  I had never seen those models before, you have some rare models!  Really unique.  Based on the writing under the Mesosaurus, I guess the photo got mirrored, so avatar_Roselaar @Roselaar you might want to flip it horizontally before adding the images for these models, which I gather are the Mesosaurus, metoposaur and Cymbospondylus.

Thank you so much for clearing this up!  :)
Would it be possible to provide individual pics for these three figures, please?

Roselaar

Went ahead and added Chialingosaurus and Spiclypeus.
Waiting on the other modifications in case I get better pics.

Does Himalayasaurus come off the list, now that PNSO has released two entirely different sculpts?

Sure does, thanks for reminding me! :)

Roselaar

Removed Atrociraptor from the list, now that JW:Dominion stuff is showing up in stores.

From the looks of Mattel's releases this year, it seems Ichthyovenator will soon follow.

Interesting, hadn't heard of it (or the species) before. I'll add it to the list. Thanks!  :)

Not yet, with new figures I tend to wait until they're released. So that'll be added soon I'm sure.

Hi avatar_Roselaar @Roselaar, just wondered if you had any more thoughts on the Evolution of Life figures?

There will be quite a lot to add I think, but also some to come off the USP, for instance the Aegirocassis.

I honestly have not heard of those yet... Any place I can find more info on them?

Crackington

They were featured on the previous page of the thread, though that was over a year ago  :D

They are from a Kickstarter project game from Forum member O @Oammararak :

Hope this helps...

Ah, so!  :)

So these are boardgame figures rather than separately collectible figures like all the regular lines? Also, did this game make it to actual release?
It's tempting to add, but I don't feel it's fully within the parameters of the USL as I intended at first. And I'm busy/lazy these days too.  ;D

Crackington

There's certainly a lot of them  :))

They did get released although I think some members are still waiting for their orders. You can buy them just as figures, which is what I did and I must say I'm very happy with them.

Not sure if they meet your USL criteria, I could see arguments both for and against listing.

Perhaps they should be viewed rather like dungeons and dragons like metal game figures? Do you ever list them if they have a unique species?

There are RalPartha figures on the list, which are gaming miniatures.

avatar_Roselaar @Roselaar If you decide to include them, I'll be gradually featuring all of the unique ones in my collection thread, in case you want to harvest photos.

Thanks  :) I'll do my best to do them justice.
