For 2024, Papo will be releasing three new dinosaurs. First we have the armoured French titanosaur Ampelosaurus. Looks like one of Papo’s better sauropods, although the colour scheme is nearly identical to that of the CollectA version.
Second up is Corythosaurus, the famous helmeted hadrosaur. Cool pose, but those hands look bad.
And the third toy for this year as well as the third spinosaur for Papo is Suchomimus. Hopefully the final product will look identical to this concept art.

Have not seen the Suchomimus model yet .. as far as the Ampelousaurus … had it not been for HG’s uber-accurate version that is gracing my shelf, I would probably get this one as I love the measured cartoony vibe the open mouthed expression gives it … certainly a GREAT figure for Papo, maybe their best overall figure yet … :>)
Goodness, that Ampelosaurus almost looks like a Schleich design… The decline and fall of Papo over past few years has been remarkable.
That one isn’t SO bad. The Cory tho, yeah, Schliech.
Hopefully the Suchomimus looks like that concept art indeed, otherwise another year of Papo not having anything of note to offer.
@dinotoyblog Sauropod models have got so much better in the last ten years.
