PNSO: New For 2021

[suspsy]

Another super expensive product that I have absolutely zero interest in acquiring, however, I am still very impressed by the level of research, craftsmanship, and dedication that plainly went into it.

More and more I despair that PNSO has abandoned the miniatures that so drew me to them in the first place.

"Triceratops"...! In bronze form
Was really hoping that this one would be a PVC release. Maybe we'll get one down the line? The sculpt is based off AMNH 5119.

And we all thought that it was a Torosaurus.

I'm wondering if this one is also to be made into a figure, and vice versa for Wyatt since he also popped up as a big statue on those photos from last year. It wouldn't surprise me if PNSO is going to release a new Triceratops in figure form as well and it would only make sense if they use a sculpt that at least looks a lot like this statue.

Only I'm not so sure if I like the pose of this one. 

I really hope they do a standard figure of this. Very nostalgic mount for me and would be a great compliment to Winter Wilson.

The ID of this specimen as Torosaurus is just an internet thing right? I don't know of any paper that has formally argued for it's reclassification as Torosaurus (though it's a distinct possibility). I'd be happy to just go with the original classification as Triceratops elatus for now...

I loved the big vinyl pieces, but I'm thinking they are being left out too.

Gavin got a model in the prehistoric line and a bronze statue, so all hope is not lost!

Wyatt the Parasaurolophus as well! We have seen images of the bronze Parasaurolophus long ago, so that one must be released soon. This leads me to believe this Triceratops could be making its way into the mid size figures soon... Fingers crossed!

any news about that Allosaurus? Wednesday is here but not a peep from Amazon so far.

I asked Motel Toy Center, they said "in 3 days". 

[Bokisaurus]

Yup beautiful bronze model and yes, hoping this will be made in PVC as a companion for Wilson v3.

Who knows what PNSO have planned, that's what's make them exciting and unpredictable 😃 I wouldn't be surprised if they just drop a bunch of min figures like they did the last time after all those were targeted to a very different audience than these larger models.

Thank you for sharing that info. I think I have to keep my brain busy with something else now as patience is NOT that point of mine I'd call strong))) Oh well, PNSO's plans are the same as summer rains — you can never predict them

[suspsy]

I would rather see PNSO do pretty much any ceratopsian other than Triceratops and Styracosaurus for their PVC range. Torosaurus would be at the top of my list. So would Anchiceratops, Pentaceratops, Centrosaurus, and Judiceratops.

Also, when is PNSO going to reveal another non-dinosaur? That poor Atopodentatus must be very lonely by now!

[Flaffy]

Direct confirmation from PNSO that "Paul" is A. fragilis

[Concavenator]

"Paul" is A. fragilis

Bye, Paul. Nice to meet you 

P.S. I still think it resembles A.jimmadseni more 

EDIT - Everything Dinosaur said they also think it's A.jimmadseni: https://blog.everythingdinosaur.co.uk/blog/_archives/2021/04/27/pnso-paul-the-allosaurus.html

EDIT 2 - I think that in the OP, the last pic of the Stegosaurus and Allosaurus skeletals can be removed, now that the Allosaurus has officially been revealed.

My Triceratops obsession is well-documented, but yikes, I can't afford bronze!

I'd actually like to see PNSO do a bigger PVC version of their Liaoceratops

[Leyster]

Direct confirmation from PNSO that "Paul" is A. fragilis

Sorry, but it doesn't make sense at all, they probably got something wrong

This is A.jimmadseni

This is A.fragilis

Both are from Chure & Loewen (2020)

You can clery see that the ventral margin of the jugal doesn't fit in PNSO's restoration, while it matches A.jimmadseni. Whatever PNSO says, that's A.jimmadseni.

[Gothmog the Baryonyx]

I wouldn't trust the PR person from PNSO to know what the sculptor intended. The PR person thinks that the Parasaurolophus is 1:35 scale. I don't think they actually know.

[Flaffy]

Until the sculptor themselves confirms/denies it, it's unfortunate that it's being marketed/labeled as A. fragilis when it's clearly A. jimmadseni.

Still going to try and pick this one up regardless. I really like how the crests and nasal ridges were handled on this sculpt.

Yeah, why not? After all, who cares what the PR says? It's not that the value of the figure is diminuished by being called A.fragilis 

[Concavenator]

I think it's a matter of time before "Conard" the Torvosaurus is revealed. Could be any of these days really.

it is if you have a one figure per animal policy for your collection

Edit though I should say I am saying this is Allosaurus jimmadseni so it's fine

[Stegotyranno420]

cannot wait for Conard. i hope its not a bust like Paul or Yuty.(both have very strange head sizes, which ruins it for me)
Any other word on Gamba?
