Safari Ltd - New for 2021

[CityRaptor]

Could the Tyrannosaur be Appalachiosaurus? Even the more modern takes on it give it fairly long arms for a Tyrannosaur.

Going by silhouettes he two Fantasy ones do not seem to be particularily Retro.

Thats true. I thought of the Dinosaurs in my 90s Kidsbooks. Like a Schleich Figure. Maybe just a more toyisch appearance.

The description for both says:
"This figure puts a fantastical spin on an iconic creature, ready to do battle with its mortal enemy!"
So I think it is something else.

There is also a horse figure, could it perhaps be a quagga? Edit it isn't it is stated as wildlife. My bad. But can't wait to see more of the new ones

[Stegotyranno420]

I just wish they'd show the figure instead of teasing us. Especially if we have high hopes, then we are let down by the hopefull not terrible final product

[Bokisaurus]

So . . . who else strongly suspects that both Safari and CollectA have a new Spinosaurus in store for 2021?

As for Daspletosaurus, that would be wonderful. The only one I presently own is the goofy but endearing CollectA version. There's also going to be the one from Beasts of the Mesozoic, but that could well end up being a 2022 release.

I hope these are the only three theropods in the 2021 assortment. I'd like to see more plant eaters.

I have a feeling CollectA will also update their spino😃

I too would rather see the full figure than be teased.  I'm sure Safari won't produce anything terrible - it's a very reliable firm - but I just like to know now!

Honestly 2020 was a big letdown. Never thought id have all of the schleich figures of a year rather than the safari ones.

I think you might have mixed up companies.

I think you might have mixed up companies.

Ha! I was thinking the same thing.

[Loon]

I would prefer a more obscure Tyrannosaur honestly, but if it ends up being an Albertosaurus, I wouldn't mind.

I didn't care for everything Safari put out this year, especially not some of the theropods, but even a figure as weak as the Concavenator (IMO) is still leagues better than anything Schleich put out this year.

[Stegotyranno420]

No, i mean it. Shocker.

[Halichoeres]

Well, there's no accounting for taste.

I think the Daspletosaurus hypothesis is persuasive, I'm changing my guess accordingly.

Some people would rather eat McDonald's than a nice grilled steak with potatoes.

[SidB]

True, if you would "shock". you'd best be prepared to be shocked in return. Then, "de gustibus non est disputandum" - "beauty is in the eye of the beholder."

Analogy aside, I am very much one of these people when it comes to food. Yes, I am that disgusting.

Can I swap the McDonalds for a pizza and wings? If so then I'm also one of those people.

I don't even remember what Schleich released this year, that should tell you something.

Baryonyx
Cryolophosaurus
Postosuchus
Agustinia
Ankylosaurus

there, I pointlessly told you what they released this past year,

and i have more Schleich Dinosaurs then Safari at this time.

[Ceratosaurus blogspot]

I think it's a carcharodontosaurus, not some tyrannosaurus species

[suspsy]

Safari wouldn't do another Carcharodontosaurus after only five years, not when there are scores of other theropods that have never received a toy. Besides, that clue they gave basically locks it as a tyrannosaur. Carcharodontosaurus doesn't have any relatives that were significantly larger.

[Mattyonyx]

A Daspletosaurus would be the first to feature the facial skin fro the new discoveries, that could be interesting.
