What figures would you want to change their pose/posture?

I wish Papo's ceratosaurus had a full bipedal posture. It's nice but I would like a more classic posture.
I think Rebor's is a good alternative if you can find one. The only issue is the warping of the legs which some people have issues and others don't. So its basically a 50/50 risk.
I am trying to find this figure and the Acrocanthosaurus, but prices are ridiculous...

Although this is not a complete figure and has yet to even be painted, Nanmu's Parasaurolophus in its running pose. I just don't like when a figure is fixed to its base. Maybe my feelings on this figure will change when colors are applied.

On the other hand, I would like Papo's ankylosaurus to have a posture, especially the tail, more in line with my dinosaurian beliefs. It looks more like a scorpion to a dinosaur. It is very nice but I would like the mallet and the tail to be positioned horizontally.
My Papo Euplocephalus (Ankylosaurus) has had numerous hot water treatments, followed by generous flexing and hyperextension, with the result that the tail has become rather more realistic, give or take. I suspect that I'll have to have surgery done to get it where it ultimately needs to be. That's another Papo project.

The Papo anky is more Scolosaurus than Euoplocephalus

True, but it really isn't any of the three solely, is it.

Speaking of those armored fellas, PNSO's Sauropelta's compressed-like body has always shifted me away from buying it. Was this interpretation of the genus based on someone's artwork/reconstruction? Correct me if I am wrong please.

Its Scolo but with an Anky's head slapped on

Yes, the Victoria Arbour and Phil Currie paper from the 2013 thread "Euplocephalus Explodes". I'd forgotten about that one. Thanks for the reminder.

I would like all the JP-style raptors and rexes re-posed, preferably in a hydraulic press.
In the kingdom of the blind, better take public transit. Well, in the kingdom of the sighted, too, really--almost everyone is a terrible driver.

Toss the JP Spinosaurus in there as well.
