Papo Mosasaurus

[Shonisaurus]

A protoceratops is a positive bet on Papo's part, I hope he can even outperform his Collecta counterpart.

When it comes to mosasaurus and kronosaurus I pray that they are not like your tylosaurus and plesiosaurus. They are pretty enough animals and with which Papo's brilliant company can take advantage of a lot to make "retro" figures of poor quality.

The repainted styracosaurus would be great, but if it's a new sculpture that emulates companies like Safari, Collecta or Schleich it would be great, at least a larger size Collecta-style re-sculpture would be welcome from me.

Good news, revelations. The news announcements are already moving and it is not just Collecta.

That is definitely a better selection than this year's (which isn't really saying much). The Styracosaurus is totally a repaint, but the other three are intriguing. I just hope the sea creatures aren't like the Plesiosaurus and the Tylosaurus.

Interesting list. I am only interested in the Protoceratops, but hopefully it doesn't look like a "monster." Would go well with their Velociraptor if done right.

Why do companies continue to make Kronosaurus? There are a lot on the market and it would be really hard to top CollectA's and PNSO's.

Papo Mosasaurus

I would honestly love that. Lets get a whole series of sea monsters from medieval and renaissance maps.

Very curious about the Protoceratops. I hope this year is a triumphant return for Papo. It would be great to see them make a comeback.

Honestly I am much more excited about next year's modern dinosaurs by Papo than prechistoric ones. They're the only company so far that realesed lots of common European birds in past few yers, like the Pheasant or this year's Robin and Grey Heron. And now they are making a Magpie-my favorite 'backyard' bird I always wanted figure of! I am super excited for it, as well as the Tit (even if turns out they just repainted the Robin sculpt), Hummingbird (there's suprising lack of humminbird figures in general) and African Sea Eagle. I really can't wait to see pictures of all of those!

I share this sentiment. I'm excited to see all the birds but particularly the spoonbill and hummingbird. Their recent gray heron and European robin were fantastic.

It's reasonable to assume that the Styracosaurus is a repaint. But I've been surprised, year-by-year, as Papo has proceeded to repaint various dinosaurs from their past line-up, that they've by-passed the one figure that has MOST needed repainting - the Triceratops, whose coloration has historically received some quite uncomplimentary criticism, being compared to, ah, manure, so to speak.
I'm glad that I had mine repainted and with the results (see my repaint thread, if interested).

Very curious about the Protoceratops. I hope this year is a triumphant return for Papo. It would be great to see them make a comeback.

I am also curious about the Protoceratops. I prefer Wild Safari dinos, but Proto has been a favorite since childhood and I'm tempted to get the first one in a size that appeals to me LOL

[Carnoking]

Papo usually do a good job with ceratopsians even with their creative liberties. I'm interested to see how that shakes out. Wonder when they'll be revealed?

[Patrx]

I really like my CollectA Protoceratops, but it's also one of my favorite dinosaurs, so I'm curious to see what Papo's might look like.

[PrimevalRaptor]

Very interesting choice if it holds true. Excited for the Protoceratops since their ceratopsians are usually pretty good, bit more split on the Mosasaurus and Kronosaurus given their track record with marine reptiles...wouldn't be surprised if the Mosa is gonna be similar to the JW one, but we shall see.

[Carnoking]

On one hand, making a Jurassic World Mosasaurus seems moot given how Nanmu and W-Dragon have already created something in that regard. On the other hand, Papo does appeal to a different area of the market and would easily be more affordable than both, so I can see it.

[GojiraGuy1954]

I'd like a JW Mosa
I'd like an accurate Mosa

Just please dont make it like the Tylo

[Duna]

Collecta Protoceratops is too large to fit in most collections, mine for example. I didn't even think of it because of the size. I would really love a small protoceratops.

[MLMjp]

Oddly enough, the ones that interest me the most are the Marine reptiles...

[CityRaptor]

Papo Mosasaurus

I'm thinking either Crystal Palace, Charles Knight/Zdenek Burian or Jurassic World.

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Papo Mosasaurus

I'm thinking either Crystal Palace, Charles Knight/Zdenek Burian or Jurassic World.

If they actually did that I would buy everyone of them.

[terrorchicken]

a figure line based on medieval bestiary depictions of animals would be AMAZING!
