The three final 2024 CollectA toys have been revealed! First up is the very first ever toy of Nanuqsaurus! This Alaskan tyrannosaurid was smaller than Albertosaurus and much smaller than Tyrannosaurus rex, but if you saw its appearance in Prehistoric Planet, you know it was a savage and pitiless predator! This toy is part of the Age of Dinosaurs Popular series, so it’s fairly small at 15.7 cm long and 4.5 cm tall.
Next up is a 20.5 cm long 1:20 scale Deluxe version of the massive marsupial from down under, Diprotodon. Unlike the version from Southlands Replicas (sure wish they were still in business), this toy represents a male and a hardened one at that. He features a torn left ear and scars on his right cheek and left thigh from an encounter with a Thylacoleo (could we be getting one from CollectA in 2025?).
And last of all is a 1:20 scale Deluxe Placerias measuring 15.7 cm long. This is CollectA’s second dicynodont after their 2020 Lisowicia. Like its larger cousin, this Placerias boasts an impressive set of tusks, but it also features a thin smattering of hair on its back!
All three toys are set to be released in mid-2024. All in all, another very exciting assortment from CollectA!

Definitely excited for an updated Placerias. My hope is David Silva includes one in his Cyberzoic line.
És találtam hátsó lábain is sebet.Gyönyörű és életszerű.
Nekem a Diprotodon tetszik a leginkább.Észrevettem,hogy az arcának jobb felén két mély lyuk alakú seb vörösre festve,és ez gyönyörű részlet,amúgy imádom az ősemlősöket,így ez tökéletes választás a számomra.Utoljára ilyen sebet a 2017-es Safari Feathered T-rexén láttam.
I wish they’d do a gorgonopsid.
Agreed. I’d love a bigger and better Inostrancevia than the Safari one.
Placerias and Diprotodon are very nice. The Nanuqsaurus isn’t looking so great though.
wow, Diprotodon, Placerias and Polacanthus. Collecta is being kind to me next year.
I wish the paint scheme on Placerias was a bit more interesting…….too similar in colour to Diprotodon. May have to repaint Placerias.
Overall, very pleased.
My favourite out of them is the Placerias!
@dinotoyblog what are they made from?
Hard rubber. As always.
@dinotoyblog kind of amusing that the opening text mastodon displays before the "read more" link doesn't mention Placerias, but then the only image it displays is the image of Placerias. : )(I don't know whether this is a flaw in how mastodon displays complex ActivityPub posts, or a wordpress flaw, but I've read mastodon has flaws in displaying complex ActivityPub posts.)
