PNSO 2021 Hopes and Dreams

[suspsy]

Patagotitan has a relatively complete skeleton, but the skull is missing.

[Stegotyranno420]

I can't think of one honestly, large titanosaurs are all fragmentary as far as I remember.

how about large non titanosaur sauropods?

[suspsy]

Turiasaurus' skull is known.

[Wallnut]

Dreadnoughtus has a relativle complete skeleton.

[Sim]

While I'm enjoying PNSO's current focus on theropods and would like it to continue, I'd also like PNSO to release that Edmontonia.

[EmperorDinobot]

PNSO is starting to look like a major player in prehistoric figures. I'm starting to absolutely love them.

I only have one.


I don't know what I'd like to see. All of your suggestions are quite sound.

[gfxtwin]

At this point maybe 2022 or later is more likely, but my most anticipated releases to hopefully get someday:

- Guanlong
- Bajadasaurus
- Coelurus(based on the fossil of the preserved tail in amber)
- Psittacosaurus
- Spinosaur (deluxe ver)
- Parasaurolophus
- Dilophosaurus
- Allosaurus
- Acrocanthosaurus
- Yingshanosaurus
- Smilodon
- Mammoth

You're in luck, Allosaurus is a planned release for PNSO, as we have received a teaser for it (refer back to page 1 of the PNSO 2021 thread). I am curious though, why another Spinosaurus? I'd be down for a Mark Witton inspired Spino, but I'd rather have a different genus.

Edit: Also, Parasaurolophus is supposed to be a possible release as well. We have gotten images in the past of a vinyl version, which could definitely mean we will receive either the mid size figure or even a possible vinyl. Who knows with PNSO, as they are random with releases, but I am not complaining.

[gfxtwin]

One of many things that makes Spino so interesting to me is how it's possibly the largest carnivorous dinosaur, so having that reflected via being in scale w/ the T Rex would be a dream figure, if it happens.  Also yes, a second release could feature an updated sail inspired by Witton's skeletals.  Not in any rush though - who knows how much its appearance might change in a few or more years. Until then, the current Spino is still flame so I'm  more than content (especially since it should be arriving to my doorstep today a little over a week after ordering it from Amazon!)

My hope/dream is that PNSO takes a year off and gives me a break

I guess that it's like a high-end buffet - too much of a good thing, though financially rather than alimentary. Too much also tends to dull one's appreciation, as @ceratopsian has pointed out.

[Bread]

With the announcement of PNSO releasing more figures every week after their Spring Festival, I'd like to post a list of figures I am hoping to be released. This announcement can be found in PNSO New for 2021 thread.

With this list, I am going to include figures that have been teased previously by PNSO. Although they been slightly shown to us, that does not confirm we will be getting them, but I hope so one day.

Ornithopods
Parsaurolophus
Edmontosaurus
Maiasaura
Brachylophosaurus
Tsintaosaurus
Saurolophus
Ouranosaurus
Kritosaurus
Gryposaurus
Muttaburrasaurus
Shantungosaurus (yes there is their vinyl figure of this genus, but I'd like an update due to its bland coloration and lack of this genus being made)

Ceratopsians
Torosaurus
Diabloceratops
I don't like many of PNSO's ceratopsians. Only one I like is their Machairoceratops, so that's why I included Diabloceratops. The Torosaurus was due to a slight reveal of a vinyl version, but we'll see if this is soon to be made. Also, I am a big fan of Safari's so I don't think many companies can top Watson's beautiful ceratopsians.

Stegosaurids
Kentrosaurus
Wuerhosaurus
Stegosaurus
Once again, a short list for this group. I just don't collect Stegosaurids, and I am not too fond of them.

Nodosaurids
Edmontonia
Gastonia
Animantarx
Hylaeosaurus
Peloroplites
Gargoyleosaurus
Tianzhenosaurus
Zhongyuanosaurus

Sauropods
Shunosaurus
Huabeisaurus
Qiaowanlong
Short list due to me not wanting a lot of sauropods due to size and cost....

Therapods
Zhuchengtyrannus
Xuanhanosaurus
Chilantaisaurus
Abelisaurus
Majungasaurus
Monolophosaurus
Guanlong
Yutyrannus
Not many therapods, since I really do prefer PNSO's herbivores, especially their hadrosaurs if you can't tell already.

Some non-dinosaur, prehistoric life that I would like to see:
Purussaurus
Deinosuchus
Pterasaurs and mammals are a challenge for me to pick out. I would just like to see PNSO produce some and go from there. I do not collect Prehistoric Ocean life, but I would like to see what else PNSO could produce.

My list is somewhat short, but I would like PNSO to surprise us. These are just a few I'd like to see in figure form. Please correct me if I made any mistakes in categorizing, I made it simpler for me with just a simple therapods category, since I do not want many.

[Sim]

I'd like PNSO to stop with the ornithischians for a while, they've made so many and the other dinosaur groups need better representation.  I'd really like PNSO to make the following:

Suchomimus
Austroraptor
Dilophosaurus
Acrocanthosaurus
Thalassomedon
Plateosaurus
Ceratosaurus

[Gothmog the Baryonyx]

I don't think they should stop doing Ornithiscians until they have done a Camptosaurus, but I do think they should do some other animals. But I really want lips on a large theropod and they won't do that. A bipedal sauropodmorph would be a amazing though, as would an accurate Austroraptor and Suchomimus actually. And they definitely could do with some more non-dinosaurs.

[Lynx]

All I want is a new wave of PNSO Minis. I am still waiting for Halzskaraptor to be made into a figure.

Hear, hear! I want Jeholopterus, Rugops, and Tarchia among others.

I honestly believe PNSO's strengths are their ornithischians, and their therapods are their weakness. As to why I'd like to see them make even more ornithischians, especially hadrosaurs as there are not many good ones.

Remember, we have no idea how long the "1 figure each week" is going to last. So we have an opportunity to have a large amount of therapods, hadrosaurs, stegosaurs, ankylosaurs, etc...

And they definitely could do with some more non-dinosaurs.

I forgot even their recent Microraptor doesn't have lips.  I'd like lips on Austroraptor, but I don't mind whether the other theropods I mentioned have lips.  Except Suchomimus, I don't want lips on that one as I don't think spinosaurids had lips.

[suspsy]

I do think there's enough ornithischians now, although I am keen to see the Pachycephalosaurus, and I certainly wouldn't say no to say, Utahceratops, Judiceratops, Tarchia, or Zuul. I also like the idea of Austroraptor, Plateosaurus, and Suchomimus.

I think the poor Atopodentatus could use some non-dinosaur company. Any plesiosaur or mosasaur or pterosaur in this size range would be nifty. Preferably a more obscure species like Cryptocleidus or Globidens or Anuroganathus.

[Stegotyranno420]

So far we only seen Mesozoic animals and tetrapods. Titanitchys anyone?
