The latest 2024 reveal in the Jurassic World Hammond Collection line is Dimetrodon, and it definitely looks to be Mattel’s best rendition of that most iconic of non-dinosaurs.

Feast your eyes upon the stupendous Samuel! This towering Alamosaurus is perhaps PNSO’s finest sauropod yet, standing close to 30 cm tall and boasting a very long and very thick neck and rows of spiky osteoderms on his back. He’ll undoubtedly go well with Cameron, or indeed most other Tyrannosaurus rex figures!

Nigersaurus is a genus of rebbachisaurid sauropod that was discovered in the Elrhaz Formation in Niger, Africa. It lived during the middle Cretaceous and is notable for its small size (by sauropod standards), short neck, and bizarrely shaped broad muzzle packed with over 500 teeth.

The Cyberzoic Kickstarter is officially over. 1,637 backers contributed an impressive combined total of $608,230 US to bring David Silva’s long dream closer to fruition. Naturally, it will be at least a year before the figures ship, but judging from the images, the wait will be worth it.

Today marks the start of Dinovember and two 2024 sets from LEGO have been revealed!
Baby Dinosaur Rescue Centre. None of these are new moulds, but it’s neat to get this many in one set.
Dinosaur Fossils: T. rex Skull. Now this is a pretty impressive bit of architecture.

It being Halloween, REBOR has revealed their “Cannibal Corpse” Plain Version Deluxe Pack, a gruesomely zombified version of the Jurassic Park Tyrannosaurus rex, complete with a severed Indominus arm for it to munch on.
Personally, I moved on from the whole zombie craze some years ago, but I’m sure this item will be well-received by many folk.

Haolonggood’s latest reveal is a double dose of Dilophosaurus! Collectors can choose between a standing or a sitting version, or both.
And naturally, each figure comes in two distinct colour schemes. The brighter coloration of the sitting individual in the first pair could mean that it is a male, similar to how many male birds are more brightly coloured than females.

4.7 (38 votes)
Nasutoceratops marked the first new release of 2023 from Haolonggood, a company which has been quickly climbing the popularity brands among collectors here on the Dinosaur Toy Blog. You’d be forgiven if you’re not quite familiar with the brand yet, though; Haolonggood has been around for a little while, but their company history hasn’t always been clear.

Compsognathus longipes was a small late Jurassic theropod discovered in Europe and the first theropod known from mostly complete remains. For a time, it was also the smallest dinosaur ever discovered. Compsognathus doesn’t really need an introduction, however, we all know it from the Jurassic Park franchise.
