large sauropod figures

[dyno77]

which company would most likely release large sauropod figure similar in size to the papo brachiosaurus or the older schleich sauropods ? Just remember that in the past none of the companies had any problems with releasing large dinosaurs like apatosaurus and brachiosaurus that were big and solid figures . Apart from the mentioned problems with big sauropods figures , i cant see why collecta cant release some deluxe sauropods of good size maybe over 15 inches long.

Well, Mattel is gonna release a big Brachiosaurus in their JW line.

Ah, the good old days of large sauropod figures! I for one would want to see more larger figures.
That being said, its simply economics really. During the heyday of large dinosaur figures, online shopping was still not the norm like it is today . Back then, you can pick them up in many local small toy stores. But those days are mostly gone ( so are the small mom& pop toy stores sadly). Today, online shopping is the norm, so now we have to pay for shipping and large solid PVC sauropods are heavy and cost a lot to ship ( that applies to distributors as well).
So you can see how companies are now hesitant to produce large heavy figures, it makes a big difference sales wise.
The only large figures of sauropods from the last few years were the Safari ones, and even then they are smaller than their predecessors.

The CollectA Brontosaurus is almost 15 inches long (about 14. but a lot of that is tail, so it still feels pretty small.

That's a good observation on the shift to online shopping, Boki. That might be a major factor. I'm also a fan of large sauropod figures, and it can cost a pretty penny to ship them (like the PNSO Huanghetitan, yikes!).
