Next up for Haolonggood is the iconic “meat-eating bull,” Carnotaurus. Sculpted in a walking pose and with an articulated lower jaw, it will come in either brown or grey. Yet another impressive job.

Images of Schleich’s 2024 prehistoric assortment have hit the web, so let’s check out what we’re getting, shall we?
Allosaurus. Schleich has tackled this genus many times already in the past. The pose looks a little contorted, but maybe it’s just the angle.
Review: Herrerasaurus (Jurassic World Dino-Trackers, Strike Attack by Mattel)
3.9 (85 votes)
The late Triassic Herrerasaurus is one of the oldest dinosaurs known from the fossil record. So old and primitive is Herrerasaurus that there is still debate about where it fits in the dinosaur family tree. At various times it has been proposed that Herrerasaurus was a basal theropod, a basal sauropodomorph, a basal saurischian, or not a dinosaur at all.

Safari has revealed its final two prehistoric toys for the year. First up is a repaint of their baby Brachiosaurus, which originally came out a good 26 years ago. Wonder if the adult version will also be rereleased in these colours?

Review: Troodon (Mojo Fun)
3.3 (45 votes)
Alas, poor Troodon. Beginning in the late 1980s and continuing all the way into the 2010s, it was widely hailed as the smartest dinosaur of them all. It became a fixture of books, documentaries, and films in which it was frequently depicted as a swift, graceful, big-eyed predator that hunted down small mammals in the night.
Review: Hadrosaurus (CollectA)
4.8 (67 votes)
Although only known from 35 bones and some teeth from a single specimen, Hadrosaurus is more significant than its fragmentary remains would suggest. Hadrosaurus foulkii was first described by Joseph Leidy in 1858 from remains found in New Jersey’s Woodbury Formation.
Review: Tapejara (Jurassic World Dino Rivals/Primal Attack Savage Strike by Mattel)
2.2 (56 votes)
Ever since I, Emperor Dinobot, managed to get most of my Jurassic pterosaurs on the ceiling, I made the reealization that doing so would make it impossible for me to review certain individuals, especially many of the repaints and retools Mattel has released in the last few years.
News: Upcoming release from Bandai (New for 2023)

Now here’s something rather exciting from Bandai: the Plannasaurus Spinosaurus. First you assemble the plastic skeleton, then you attach the skin and flesh pieces to create the most up-to-date restoration of the world’s most famous finned fish eater. I believe this is the very first “new” Spinosaurus figure that isn’t posed in a swimming or quadrupedal stnace.
