The Haolonggood Huayangosaurus was a figure originally teased on the 2024 Haolonggood announcement poster and since it’s a genus for which figures are few and far between a lot of collectors were eager to acquire one, me included. But then came the bad news, the Huayangosaurus was a bonus figure included with the Argentinosaurus pre-order.

Review: Arctodus (Deluxe by CollectA)

Out on the prairie, a large male jaguar has brought down a fat young camel, which will satisfy his stomach for days. But here comes Nita now, all 495 kg of her, and she’s just as hungry. As she approaches the big cat, she lets out a warning huff.

Jurassic World: Dominion may have been a bloated mess of a film and a disappointing end to the Jurassic World trilogy but it’s hard to deny that it had its moments.

Review: Edmontonia (Haolonggood)
5 (5 votes)
Out of all the exciting releases unveiled by Haolonggood in 2023, there were few I anticipated more than the nodosaur Edmontonia, which began arriving to vendors in June. Named after the Edmonton (Horseshoe Canyon) Formation in Canada where the type species was discovered, Edmontonia isn’t one of the most famous dinosaurs, nor even necessarily one of my own favorites; yet it’s known from enough substantial fossil remains to make common appearances in dinosaur literature growing up (especially in Dorling Kindersley publications, featuring the Royal Tyrrell Museum’s life model).
Review: Velociraptor (The Lost World: Jurassic Park, Site B Erasers by Impact Inc)

While the merchandise accompanying the release of the various Jurassic Park films ranged between everything from watches to bed-sheets, the most exciting items for me were of course the dinosaur figures. So I was happy to find this cool little Velociraptor figure with a big The Lost World logo on the packaging at a Copenhagen dinosaur exhibition back in 1998, only to find when I opened it that it was… A rubber pencil eraser?!

Review: Palaeoscincus (Imperial)

In these days when dinosaur toys only get more and more hyperrealistic, it’s easy to forget that there was a time when they could be inaccurate not just by following outdated science, but also due to complete disregard for any kind of scientific considerations.

If I were asked to pick a favorite dinosaur toy it would be a challenging query, but I think the one I’d settle on would be the Marx Kronosaurus. A relic of Marx’s early dinosaur lines, the swan-necked prehistoric reptile has a history going back almost a century.
