Eofauna figures questionnaire (Collector wishes)

[Syndicate Bias]

I'm still surprised they went for the Giganotosaurus first. I would've thought something along the lines of a Concavenator tbh

[EarthboundEiniosaurus]

Nice to hear so many would like a Paraceratherium, hopefully Eofauna will take that into consideration. Also nice to hear Stegodon on peoples proboscid lists, here's mine:
1. Cuvieronius
2. Barytherium
3. Stegodon
4. Zygolophodon borsoni
5. Deinotherium
If Eofauna ever did make a late Pleistocene mastodon, maybe label it as M. pacificus?

[Halichoeres]

Eofaunas models remind me of the Invictas when they first came out when I was a kid, they were simple, well made, and as accurate as they could be, I think whatever they do they will do it to their best.

Can't argue with that!

I am so glad that @Eofauna has done this, it's a fantastic idea.

Truth be told, I'd probably be interested in anything you produce as it's at such a fantastic quality, aside from C. megalodon which to me is the most boring prehistoric animal, and probably wouldn't buy T. rex either on principle (though other Tyrannosauruds are fair game).

This is what I put down aside from the animals mentioned in brackets which are extra ideas, I did include non-sauropod sauropodomorphs in the sauropod section as I felt it's the best place to put them.

1.   Deinocheirus
2.   Daspletosaurus
3.   Majungasaurus
4.   Nothronychus
5.   Eustreptospondylus
6.   (Deinonychus; Shuvuuia; Latenivenatrix)

Sauropodomorphs
1.   Massospondylus
2.   Barosaurus
3.   Brachytrachelopan
4.   Lessemsaurus
5.   Bajadasaurus
6.   (Europasaurus; Brontosaurus)

Ornithischians
1.   Edmontosaurus
2.   Tsintaosaurus
3.   Tuojiangosaurus
4.   Tenontosaurus
5.   Magnapaulia
6.   (Kulindadromeus; Agujaceratops; Stegopelta; Camptosaurus)

Proboscideans
1.   Deinotherium
2.   Moetherium
3.   Platybelodon
4.   Stegotetrabelodon
5.   Zygolophodon

Other
•   Paraceratherium

Here, here.

I have to wonder if this questionnaire directly pertains to Eofauna's fourth figure, or if that one is already past the planning stage and due to be revealed soon. Or did I miss something?

[Halichoeres]

I expect the next two or so figures are already in the planning stages at least. I imagine the results of this survey probably won't be reflected in actual products until at least next year.

@Gothmog the Baryonyx that's an excellent list.

[Syndicate Bias]

Guess no updates on their next dino yet? i could have sworn it was this month or June.

[tanystropheus]

Just got the Eofauna Giga today. It's a 10/10 for me. Three figures in and they are already my favorite company (I still have to pick up the Mammoth).

The choice of colors are a bit bland but they blend in rather masterfully. The model has considerable heft. Also, they certainly did not skimp on the tail (which seems to happen with a number of dinosaur companies and models). 

On the plus side, having a complete Eofauna collection of toys is more doable than say, PNSO.

The dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals of Eofauna are intended for an adult collector and are more affordable than the figures of other brands.

Oddly enough, Giga's tail is one of my favorite aspects of the figure: it's muscular and it's long! I greatly appreciate dinosaur figures with substantial tails; I think it's something I've always considered a distinguishing feature of "saurian" creatures, in contrast to mammals, for example.

Hopefully we'll get news on the next release sometime soon; but I'm honestly not in any rush. Eofauna is welcome to take their time producing their best possible product.

[Duna]

Please, we need a CONCAVENATOR from you, it has all the lottery tickets:

1. It's the most remarkable and famous Spanish dinosaur.
2. It's a theropod (everyone loves them) and its huge!
3. Skeleton is almost complete, perfect for you to make an accurate model.
4. There are few none accurate quality models in the market.
5. If you do it, it wil be a 10/10.

Thank you!

[Ravonium]

After over half a year of being aware of it, I've finally answered the questionnaire. Here's what I put (not necessarily in the order I listed them in the actual form):

Theropods:

   
• Cryolophosaurus (I missed out on the Battat and Carnegie versions)
• Tarbosaurus (Surprised this one is still as underrepresented as it is)
• Majungasaurus
• Pelecanimimus (This is one I see as likely to be made in the future)
• Limusaurus

Sauropods:

   
• Shunosaurus (The Safari one is good, but significantly too small for my preferences)
• Bajadasaurus
• Alamosaurus
• Ampelosaurus
• Cetiosaurus

Ornithscians:

   
• Scelidosaurus
• Tarchia
• Tenontosaurus
• Shantungosaurus (I missed out on the PNSO version)
• Edmontosaurus annectens (In light of the recent revelation of the hooves)

Proboscideans:

   
• Palaeoloxodon namadicus
• Platybelodon
• Moeritherium
• Palaeoloxodon falconeri (Is three models of the same genus pushing it a bit? In this case, I don't think so!)
• Mammuthus creticus

Other:

   
• Ambulocetus
• Buriolestes
• Prinonosuchus
• Aepyornis
• Dinornis
• Platecarpus
• Pliosaurus
• Phosphorosaurus (In retrospect, I should have specified ponpetelegans, although as it is the more well known species, they'd likely make it anyways)
• Riojasaurus
• Lisowicia
• Arctodus simus
• Pelagornis (For this and the next suggestion, I specified a flight posture)
• Argentavis
• Shonisaurus
• Moschops
• Livyatan
• Paraceratherium
• Tiktaalik
• Procoptodon goliah
• Armadillosuchus

[Shonisaurus]

It would be interesting if Eofauna performed a concavenator is an exotic theropod and one never tires of collecting a new one. An albertosaurus by Eofauna would break the general tonic of all dinosaur brands to always make the tyrannosaurus rex.

On the other hand a riojasaurus, alamosaurus or barapasaurus (which replaces that of Schleich) or a barasoarus.

A moeritherium or a platybelodon or a mammoth americanum would be other good addictions.

[tanystropheus]

Eofauna should make a Odobenocetops ! I mean who wouldn't want a prehistoric walrus headed whale!

[Halichoeres]

Some strong suggestions, @Ravonium. I'm definitely on board with Tarchia, Scelidosaurus, Tenontosaurus, Limusaurus, Cetiosaurus, Phosophorosaurus, Lisowicia, and Armadillosuchus in particular.

[Shonisaurus]

@Halichoeres I really like your suggestions but unfortunately Eofauna only focuses on sauropods, theropods and prehistoric elephants, I wish there were more variety of species and any of your choices are highly codified by many of us who are members of DTF.

Well, the survey included an "other" category. I figure anything goes there.

Yeah. Besides, ornithscians was one of the main survey categories, implying they're going to start also focusing on them  soon.

You know... I wish someone could get hold of those Invicta molds and reissue those... maybe painted this time...
