Shonisaurus

A gallimimus would be great considering that there are very few figures of the so-called ostrich dinosaurs on the toy dinosaur market.

I would like an updated and improved saltasaurus over the old Carnegie version. One more titanosaur to accompany its Malawisaurus counterpart would be great.

GojiraGuy1954

I'd prefer Ornithomimus or Struthiomimus. They could be a part of the Hell Creek line.

I would like a Herrerasaurus too.
Seems to be an underrepresented specie.
The Schleich one is ok, but too big for 1/35 and a bit weird.

herrerasaurus is literally IRL JP raptor, why has no toy company taken advantage of this? so so cool.

I want a new Tyrannosaurus rex with little or no feathers, Gallimimus, Utahraptor, Majungasaurus, and Falcarius.

I like the way you think. I admit I had to look up Adratiklit and Thililua - cool critters.

Safari Deinonychus and Papo Feathered Velociraptors can make somewhat good Uthas, no ?
They scale nicely for that in 1/35.

avatar_SenSx @SenSx, the Papo feathered Velociraptor really doesn't work as a Utahraptor, Utahraptor looks like this: https://www.deviantart.com/drscotthartman/art/Plunderer-from-Utah-179491659

I'd like more marine reptiles and some prehistoric primates.

Albertosaurus, Gorgosaurus, Tarbosaurus, Alioramus — as long as they aren't protofluffy   ;D  And a beefed up T. rex like the new Sue display in my avatar.

I'd like Safari to make new versions of Ceratosaurus and Acrocanthosaurus.  The current ones have feet that are too big (especially Ceratosaurus), caudofemorals muscles that are too small and the Acro has a shrink-wrapped dorsal ridge which should instead be muscular.  Additionally, Acrocanthosaurus was one of the largest theropods but the current Safari figure is small.  In 2022 it will have been 10 years since the current versions were released, and Doug Watson's models have improved so much in that time.  I'd be happy for new versions to keep the colouration of the current versions as I like them a lot.  I'd like a new Acrocanthosaurus to be in 1:40 or 1:35 scale and a new Ceratosaurus to be the same size as the current version.  I'd also like the Ceratosaurus to represent C. nasicornis again.  The horn area of C. dentisulcatus is unknown and Papo already made a good C. dentisulcatus.

Sim

I'd really like Safari to make a Falcarius without extensive cheeks.  Such a fascinating dinosaur, and one that's important to the evolution of therizinosaurs.  Therizinosaurs are also one of the main missing species in the Wild Safari line, alongside bipedal sauropodomorphs.

suspsy

I'd buy a Falcarius for sure. I'd like to see more small herbivores in general. Hypsilophodon, Thescelosaurus, and Dryosaurus are long overdue.

I forgot to mention this earlier, I'd like a Safari Falcarius to be based on Scott Hartman's skeletal: https://www.skeletaldrawing.com/theropods/falcarius

I really am hoping we see a 2018 style year from them again real soon. That was the last time when I could say literally every figure was just a home run. That combined with the sheer diversity of releases... So many mammals....

Long shot, I just want an all mammal year. Or honestly, a year with no non-avian dinosaurs. Eryops, Moschops, a new bipedal Postosuchus, Placerias, Hatzegopteryx, Tanystropheus, Colombian Mammoth, Megatherium, any Drepanosaur (preferably Avicranium), or just any species of Terror Bird, are far higher on my want list than another freaking Tyrannosaur or Spinosaur.

A year with that kind of stuff would be crazy, but what kid wants those?

2017 and 2018 were some of the best years, so I also wish for 2017 style lineup and sculpts
