A short review of a small dinosaur toy figure (this one is only 9 cm long and 3.5 cm tall). I really love dinosaur toys when they are of monochrome plainness. I also love small and detailed dinosaur toys. So, of course I love this little yellow fellow.

EU government could still not agree on aborting the change to summer time, so this very day is an hour longer and so gives me some time to wirte another review after quite a long break…..
Today we gonna take a look on a probably not very popular figure, though the species is known by anyone who ever had a look into a dinosaur book.
Plateosaurus (Carnegie Collection by Safari Ltd)
4 (12 votes)
This Plateosaurus, with “1994” stamped on its tummy, is fast becoming one of the older figures in the Carnegie Collection by Safari Ltd. Plateosaurus is from the Triassic of Germany and is classified as a prosauropod dinosaur, that is, a close relative of the later large long-necked sauropods.
Plateosaurus was once thought to have been completely bipedal and was usually depicted striding boldly around on two hind legs.
Plateosaurus (CollectA)

Having recently reviewed the Bullyland Liliensternus, I thought it fitting to do another Triassic dinosaur that lived with and was possibly preyed upon by Liliensternus. I’m talking of course about everyone’s favorite basal sauropodomorph, Plateosaurus. This one was put out by CollectA in 2011. CollectA is known for their production of obscure species so it is no surprise that this well known Triassic dinosaur has been produced for their line.

Review and photographs by Dennis AKA Lanthanotus
When I first discovered the Dinosaur Toy Blog, I began with browsing the several dinosaur toy producing companies listed. The Kaiyodo site woke my interest, mainly because of the intriguing color schemes and accuracy of their models. I’ve never heard of the producer before, but when searching the forum I eventually found that they had made a plentiful array of prehistoric models (not to mention the Capsule Q and others).

Plateosaurus (DinoWaurs Survival)

Greetings DinoWaurriors! I imagine it’s very easy for creators of toy lines to stick to the Jurassic and Cretaceous period dinosaurs for their line, as this is where many were at their biggest and strangest. Let’s not forget, however, that the Triassic saw the rise of these animals, and have interesting species that began this dynasty.

Review and photos by Takama, edited by Suspsy
If there is one group of dinosaurs that toy companies seem to dislike more than ornithopods (due to the fact that they are thought to be poor sellers) then it would be the prosauropods, or sauropodomorphs as they’re now called. When a modern company makes a line of dinosaur figures, they almost always neglect this family of dinosaurs, with the sole exception of one species.

Plateosaurus (Marx)

When I originally started reviewing Marx toys I only had four lined up for review but between then and now I’ve collected a few more which will extend my Marx series for the next few reviews. Up until now all of the toys I reviewed were from Marx’s 1961 second series mold group, PL-1083.
Plateosaurus (Replica-Saurus by Schleich)
3.7 (7 votes)
The large Late Triassic dinosaur Plateosaurus was a member of the prosauropods, a group of dinosaurs that would give rise to the giants of the Late Jurassic, like Brachiosaurus and Diplodocus, 50 million years later. Plateosaurus averaged around 25 feet in length. The name means “broad lizard”, and Plateosaurus was one of the earliest dinosaurs to be discovered.
