Eofauna: New for 2022

[Faelrin]

Glad to see what appears to be another proboscidean from them and another figure (semi) revealed so soon before the release of the Diplodocus.

Columbian Mammothhhhhhhhhhh

Definitely think Eofauna is heading into the right direction. Although I don't collect prehistoric mammals, Eofauna's proboscideans are the best on the market. If I decide to in the future to start collecting mammals, Eofauna's would be first priority.

Side note/question: Has this been confirmed to be released around the same time as the Diplodocus or later in the year of 2022?

Imagine we are all wrong and it turns out to be a Styracosaurus
(To be clear, I don't think it's a Styracosaurus, it's just a thought I had).

Although its most likely not, it would be funny if we were all wrong.

I assume both will come out in 2022, but the elephant in the latter half of 2022

Columbian Mammothhhhhhhhhhh

The head seems to have too low a profile to be a columbian, hence why I suggested it might be a gomphothere. The way you've drawn it looks suspiciously like a stegodontid though... I guess we have to wait for some more to be revealed to make more concrete guesses

If it really is an American mastodon or a Columbian mammoth, I'll probably pass. I'm very happy with my Safari mastodon and Eofauna steppe mammoth (which is close enough for me). But if it's a weird-looking proboscidean like Platybelodon or Stegotetrabelodon, then I'm in.

I'll probably only get it if it's a new species for me (which the Columbian mammoth would be).

The slope of the back leads me to believe it's a mammoth, likely Columbian. It could simply be the angle of the photo. however, and the back might be straighter than the preview makes it seem.
In that case it could be any of a number of probiscideans. I'm hoping for a mastodon of some sort. Safari's was too large in scale for me, so I would be happy even if it was an American Mastodon rather than something more unique like Zygolophodon.

Columbian mammoth is hairless so i wouldnt say Steppe is a very apt comparison

Weren't american mastodons hairy?

Same genus, one is descended from the other. Apt comparison as far as I'm concerned.

[Faelrin]

I'd really like to see a Columbian Mammoth if not one of those others like Platybelodon, etc. Honestly anything other then the Woolly Mammoth is fair game (though I'm also fully satisfied with my Safari American Mastodon as well), in lack of options out there.

Paleoloxodon antiquus and falconeri are the same genus

I have zero interest in discussing it any further. Thank you.

Great to see Eofauna tackling proboscideans again after a year's drought.

Would definitely prefer something weird looking like a gomphothere or amebelodont. I'm perfectly satisfied with Doug's fantastic American mastodon, and another mammoth would be a bit of a bore considering extinct proboscidean diversity.

Columbian Mammothhhhhhhhhhh

Hmm, your drawing reminds me of Anancus arvernensis. 



They did kind of say they intended to make one in the future:

[GojiraGuy1954]

They said the same to me when I asked about Spinosaurus

[Renecito]

[Flaffy]

YES! It's something "weird"!

Been a while since the last four-tusked proboscidean was made. (CollectA 2018 Gomphotherium I believe?)

[Arctinus]

They said the same to me when I asked about Spinosaurus

And paraceratherium. xD

Ooh, a new reveal! A gomphotherium?  Either way, I have two new figures to look forward to from Eofauna.
