That would be nice. A Nothronychus would be the best therizinosaur to make.  :)

alexeratops

Have you ever thought that theri might have had webbing in between his claws? :o I think it would be likely. :)

Safari already have Inostrancevia and Kaprosuchus figures in their Wild Safari line, so I doubt that they'd include them in a prehistoric reptile tube if they ever did make one.

What would the webbing be used for? I doubt it would be for swimming, because he can't pronate. I don't think so, but everyone has their own opinion.  :)

As for the Inostrancevia and Kaprosuchus in a toob, the Postosuchus in the Prehistoric Crocodiles Toob is just like the big version, only different colour. Thats what I'm imagining.

TheAllosaur

Carnegie:
A FEATHERED Velociraptor
Majungasaurus (scott hartman)
Acrocanthosaurus Redo
Masiakasaurus
Herrerasaurus
Massospondylus
Allosaurus Redo
Lambeosaurus
Sauropoesidon
Lesothosaurus

Safari Dinosaurs:
Balaur
Falcarius
Becklespinax
Eoraptor
Melanorosaurus
Spinops
Part-time genius!

You are aware that Safari did a Postosuchus, right? And it's a brilliant figure too. One of their best. 2, counting the toob figure.

Kentrosaurus remake (still dissapointed about there current ones retirement)

Suchomimus Remake

Girafatitain(i would accept it if they simply re-name there re issuued original Safari Brachiosaurus

TheAllosaur

Haha! I can just imagine the Carnegie guys trying to find a way to pose the Scott Hartman Majungasaurus with it's really long body and short limbs...considering the difficulty they have balancing their current models without the tripod pose...it would be really hard to give the Majungasaurus a tripod stance and still give it a low slung posture (unless they wanted a tail drag  :P) I can just imagine...I dunno why I find that so funny..Haahaa
Part-time genius!

A theropod with no horrible clown feet in the style they've been producing lately.

Let's see...
A pterosaur in a four legging posture (on the ground)
Feathered velociraptor
A bigger Allosaurus
Ouranosaurus
Troodon

I've always wanted an Ouranosaurus from them.

Oh. I was thinkg of a bipedal Postosuchus, or a Saurosuchus. Oops! Should have been thinking! :o

Basically the same things I'd like to see from any company :)

  • Bipeds with bases, thereby avoiding the dreaded tripod or big-foot issues

  • Quilled ceratopsians with neutral hands

  • Deinonychusaurs with correct primary feathers and fuzzy faces

  • Mosasaurs with tail flukes

  • Feathered allosaurs

They aren't bipedal though.  Maybe functionally, but they are pretty much obligatory quadrupeds. Maybe ones like Ornithosuchus (depends on the source) or Saltoposuchus.

Based on what? Is there any fossil evidence that suggests allosaurs had feathers? Or even protofuzz for that matter?

Mostly just because it would look really cool and be nearly unique :) The Allosaurus from the latest Tokyo Dinoking Expo has what I think are meant to be feathers, but as far as I know, every other allosaur figure so far leaves them off.
I don't think there are any fossils that preserve feathers on an allosaur. I don't think there are any fossils that preserve scales on them, either, though, and every dinosaur I've ever seen has both.  ;D

I think they could run on their hind legs, but most of the time use all four. Have you looked at the front legs? They're quite short.

I am really really hoping Carnegie would re-sculpt the Acrocanthosaurus and Allosaurus at 1/40 scale.
Torvosaurus will be nice too...

I agree. We need that Zuni Basin Tyrannosaur in figure form!  ;D
