Anybody know what the Erythrosuchus figure in this picture is? Maybe avatar_stemturtle @stemturtle can help because he first posted this image in the old forum.
Also if he could ID the Trilophosaurus.

I think it's not an Erythrosuchus but a Foetodon from King Kong movie by Peter Jackson:



The "Trilophosaurus" seems to be a customized Starlux Cynognathus to me..




From what I know there is only one model of Erythrosuchus on the market:




:)

Doubtful it is a Starlux Cynognathus, as that figure is much bigger than the one in the picture. It's at least the size of the Euparkeria.

The Trilophosaurus is from a set of lizards by FUL. Member sbell wrote to me that the same set was sold by Wild Republic. The ID is speculative.
The Erythrosuchus is the smaller version of Foetodon from the King Kong movie, as RobinGoodfellow commented. There was also a larger version that had an action feature. ID is again speculative.

It looks like a one-off sculpture. The style is a bit like the Paleo Creatures line, but I think the full range are on that Everything Dinosaur link.
Does anyone know what happened to their creator?

The creature of the Paleo-Creatures line is Jesus Toledo, our very own avatar_Jetoar @Jetoar. On STS Forum, I tried to contact him and apparently he wasn't sculpting any more creatures.

Also anyone heard of this fish model i saw on aliexpress?



I'm getting Bawitius vibes if we're talking about prehistoric species.



Should I buy it?

Looks great. Where is there a link to buy that figure? It's a pretty cool one.

hello world!

very happy to join this amazing forum (will introduce myself in a separate thread later ;))

i would appreciate your help with the identification of this figure of Edmontosaurus. do you have a guess what brand this might be? i got it from the Royal Saskatchewan Museum's gift shop in 2013 or 2014.

Welcome avatar_Samrukia @erlectric;D  I'm afraid I don't have an id for your Edmontosaurus, but I've seen a tiny miniature version of that same exact sculpt.  I want to say it was by Panini, but I'm not sure.


Libraraptor

I do have that figure,  too.  But can't really say which brand it is.

Hi! What I know about that figure is that the mini green version appears in the Safari minis tube with a slightly different position of the arm and it's in fact an Iguanodon:




And also as ZoPteryx has said, another version of the mini just like yours but in mini and dark grey colour appears in the tubes with the reissues of the Panini molds. But I know nothing about your figure, that colour is very original.




Samrukia

thank you very much!

indeed, that Panini figure has a very similar sculpt. a decent figure overall i would say, good quality.

Libraraptor

At its belly it says "Edmontosaurus"...

If I'm not mistaken it's an AAA Edmontosaurus. Smaller scale than most AAA figures, but still very much in their style.

Fembrogon

This is a curious-looking raptor figure. Does anybody know what brand it is? I can't make out the scale.

That's a Deinonychus made by Sega, it's based off the Dinosaur King TV Show. The show does have some great designs, but all the dromaeosaurs have a lack of feathering as a result of the time period. ^-^
On and off dinosaur collecting phases over the span of millions of years has led me to this very forum.

Fembrogon

Ahh, I've heard of Dinosaur King before (I think it's actually on Netflix right now). Honestly I think that's a pretty decent raptor design for the time; at least it's not another JP imitator.

Strepsodus

Due to the glaring lack of prehistoric Actinopterygii, I'm trying to collect some modern ones instead. Could anyone Identify the species of these?
