PNSO 2022 hopes and dreams

[SidB]

Speaking of 'fodder', I'd love to see what they could do with those invertebrates, applying their usual high production standards.

Yes, indeed! China has a rich invertebrate record, and some of the printed matter included with PNSO's museum line figures suggests long-term plans to cover the Chengjiang biota in particular.

[Faelrin]

Would be nice for them to do Chasmosaurus, to at least fill in the last of the Dinosaur Park formation famous trio of ceratopsians. Not sure why the market in general keeps ignoring this dinosaur (outside of BotM anyways), aside from Centrosaurus (but at least both PNSO and BotM did figures of them).

[Joel1905]

Going by their standard release schedule, I think we might see a new model this Sunday...

Any predictions?

I'm going for either Diplodocus, Edmontosaurus, Shunosaurus or Lufengosaurus.

[Halichoeres]

Just reminding everyone that this thread exists for speculation and dreaming!

[Lynx]

REALLY hoping it's a velociraptor or anything of the sort. The feathered figure they released (microraptor) was beautiful despite being a tad on the skinny side. Would love to have a Velociraptor figure from them, hopefully not upsized.

[suspsy]

I still want miniatures to come back.

[Halichoeres]

Yeah, I would like some miniatures, especially if they actually deliver on the Cambrian stuff teased in some of their pamphlets over the year.

[KrazyKaprosuchus]

I still want miniatures to come back.

I miss miniatures so much. There were so many great little figures in there, especially my beloved Mei.

[Lynx]

Would love a redone baby 'Tyrannosaurus rex" mini from them! In particular, one that matches the poster Winter Wilson comes with.

A regular line Ceratosaurus would be awesome! One of my favorite dinosaurs with surprisingly a small amount of good figures for it.

[Halichoeres]

I bet if they made a Ceratosaurus its teeth would be too long and have no tissue covering them, so I think that would be a skip.

[Stegotyranno420]

I'm not super determined on getting it, but what do you guys think about PNSO trying out synapsids like Edaphosaurus and Anteosaurus

@Lynx some Ceratosaurids(including abelisaurs) will be welcomed.

[Bread]

Any hadrosaur they have yet to make would float my boat. Please be an Ouranosaurus!

Synapsids would be great as long as they skip Dimetrodon--we don't need any more Dimetrodon! Give me some Cotylorhynchus.

I'll be shocked if they skip the most commonly made/known synapsid.

[suspsy]

I would have no objection to PNSO skipping Dimetrodon in favour of a lesser known synapsid. I have both the CollectA and Safari versions and I have great difficulty seeing anyone top those two.

Cotylorhynchus would certainly be at the top of my wish list too.

If PNSO did a Dimetrodon, it wouldn't surprise me if they did the unconventional approach with the largely exposed neural spines. Otherwise, I'd like a Sphaenocodon; it made an appearance in the classic Zallinger mural and I'd like to see it revisited.

[Halichoeres]

Yeah, it is pretty likely that they would make a Dimetrodon if they ventured into synapsids, but I'd consider it wasted effort. A Sphenacodon as S @SidB suggests would be great, though! Nobody has made one in over 50 years.

If they do a Velociraptor, I'd imagine it being a museum line set, perhaps a pack of them with a couple of Protoceratops' and nests? I just hope they are 1:35, they've shown they can do tiny figures with the baby Stegosaurus & Torosaurus.

I can easily see them doing a Utahraptor.

[Joel1905]

Apologies, everyone! Clearly my prediction about an announcement today was wrong
