There are just 9 days left until the Prehistoric Elephants Backerkit campaign ends. At the time of this posting, it is at $119,127 USD, which is unfortunately short of the $185,000 goal. So if you want these figures and you can afford to back them, now is the time to do it.

Earlier this week Eofauna teased something new for early next year with a partially redacted photograph. It was clearly a fifth proboscidean, but we wondered which one could it be? An American mastodon? A gomphothere of some sort? Or perhaps even a dwarf mammoth?

Schleich’s 2025 prehistoric assortment will include their first ever Carcharodontosaurus. They did a fairly decent job with the head; you can immediately tell it’s the shark-toothed lizard. This is probably the best out of the four.
There’s also a new Dilophosaurus, but it frankly looks like a step down from the previous version.

As Waylay bursts out from concealment, the big male champsosaur that was basking placidly on a sandbank immediately slides into the water.* But the pools in these marshlands are half a metre deep at most and Waylay simply wades in and seizes the fleeing reptile’s tail in her jaws.

Edmontosaurus has been a staple in dinosaur toy lines since the very beginning of dinosaur toy production with Marx in the 1950’s. It’s a quintessential dinosaur, right up there with Triceratops, T. rex, and Stegosaurus, even if it was historically regarded as nothing more than theropod fodder.

At this point in my life, my reviews are all going to be somewhat personal. As collectors, we tend to form serious attachments to our toys or figures, as they often serve as memory capsules. They remind us of things such as a fun event that led to their discovery, a trip where a collector bought a figure at a gift shop, a gift given to a collector for their birthday, or by a special someone that may or may not be with them anymore, etc.

Behold the painted prototype of Creative Beast/Eons’ Prehistoric Elephants Moeritherium!
The colour scheme is reminiscent of the Moeritherium that was featured in the BBC series Walking with Beasts. Both were clearly inspired by the common hippopotamus.
And here’s some other pleasing news: the Backerkit campaign is doing well thus far.
