Dimetrodon. Found this video funny and how people think of this animal.

Walking With Monsers:
[about Lystrosaurus] Astonishingly, their vast herds make up more than half of all life on Earth. Never again will a single species do so well.

Walking With Monsters: (Hynerpeton) To avoid injury the males demonstrate their strength  in a strange  push up contest.

Oh no! It's no longer mint on card! ;D

The collector card actually states that it is not a Dinosaur.
Jurassic Park is frightning in the dark
All the dinosaurs are running wild
Someone let T. Rex out of his pen
I'm afraid those things'll harm me
'Cause they sure don't act like Barney
And they think that I'm their dinner, not their friend
Oh no

I remember this video, The Brain Scoop was an excellent channel but now Emily has left and I fear the channel is no more.  :'(

remember when mattel based the build of their dimetrodon off of this, one of the most iconic and successful jurassic toys of all time?

ME NEITHER.

when people ask me my favourite animal of all time i pull up an image of an accurate dimetrodon,
which is not what id ask mattel for!
but just something that doesn't have a stupid tail curling round or awful legs like that!

there are two infinitely better figures, those being:

A the chap mei effort.

also comes in a less appealing blue. the biggest let down is the weird tongue but eh. i can get past it.


and B the Lontic/happy kin/kid galaxy effort.

curled tail is a letdown but
i don't mind it really because, it's not got some crocodilian looking continuation of the sail like the mattel one.
body fully raised off of the ground, mammilian colours

this one's really good!!

just dislike the head a little, kinda odd idk, prefer the shape of the chap mei one's head. but still suuuuper nice :))


long as my heart's beatin' in my chest
this old dawg ain't about to forget :')
