Mattel’s upcoming Target exclusive Legacy Collection Mamenchisaurus is now listed on the Target website. Looks more like Diplodocus to be honest, but it’ll probably be a popular seller regardless. Who’d have believed five years ago that we’d have so many giant sauropod toys?

yup, it looks like a 1950’s or 60’s Diplodocus. I think i’ll be passing on it. I have the legacy Brach. and Dreadnoughtus; i’m content with those. If Mattel makes a more decent sauropod figure one day i’ll certainly get it but this doesn’t make the cut, imo.
…the hell?…. What’s with that tail? If they are bothering to make a huge sauropod, the fourth one they have offered, MIGHT they have, oh I dunno, TRIED? Sheesh. I adore my Brachiosaur, am quite fond of my Apatosaur, and the Dreadnaughtus has become a personality around the house, but THIS? I may pass.
Can anyone explain this thing? I very well may have missed the current thinking on these animals.
It’s a figure based on a 26 years old movie. And it is screen accurate to what is shown in the movie.
well okay, if it is screen accurate, that is something. That is part of what makes the Brachiosaur acceptable.
Still….
