New Haolonggood Baryonyx Dinosaur Models

By |2024-01-15T10:34:29+00:00January 14th, 2024|Adobe CS5, Dinosaur Fans, Everything Dinosaur News and Updates, Everything Dinosaur Products, Main Page, Press Releases|0 Comments

The Haolonggood shipment has been delayed by three days as the container vessel has diverted away from the Red Sea. The current unrest in the region is causing shipping companies to divert vessels away from the area. Everything Dinosaur aims to have the new Haolonggood figures in stock by the end of this month. The new arrivals will include the fantastic Haolonggood Baryonyx models.

The new Haolonggood Baryonyx figures will be in stock at Everything Dinosaur in early 2024.

A spokesperson from Everything Dinosaur confirmed that numerous ships were having to take longer routes to avoid the Red Sea. Many container vessels will be delayed.

Haolonggood Baryonyx Models

The two new for 2024 Haolonggood Baryonyx dinosaur models are named Shan Ting and Wei Ding Guo. Both models have articulated jaws and are the same sculpt. However, they have different colour schemes. The Baryonyx model named Shan Ting has more grey colouring and subtle red colouration running across the top of the model. In contrast, Wei Ding Guo has more green and more prominent countershading.

Each figure is 26 cm long with a declared scale of 1:35. At this size, the scale measurements suggest a dinosaur in excess of nine metres in length. This is within the parameters suggested by palaeontologists for Baryonyx walkeri, based on the London Natural History Museum specimen (NHMUK VP R9951).

The Baryonyx Holotype

The London Natural History Museum specimen represents the holotype for B. walkeri. The holotype was originally known as BMNH R9951, however, it was later re-catalogued as NHMUK VP R9951. It remains one of the most complete theropod fossil skeletons known from the UK. A cast of the Baryonyx fossil specimen is on display at the London Natural History Museum.

Baryonyx (B. walkeri) was formally named and described in 1986 (Charig and Milner). It remains the most complete fossil specimen of a spinosaurid found to date.

“King of the Giant Apes”

The model plays homage to the famous movie gorilla “King Kong”. Numerous films and franchises have been developed since the original RKO Pictures film was released in 1933. The creation of the character is credited to the American Merian Caldwell Cooper who produced and directed the film. The stop-motion animation was undertaken by special effects pioneer Willis H. O’Brien.

The “King of the Giant Apes” is in the Nanmu Studio limited-edition “Dragon Soul” series. Only five hundred figures are being commissioned. The model on its display base stands around 23 cm high (9 inches). The box dimensions for the figure are 31 x 15.2 x 32 cm.

New Rebor Dire Wolf Models Soon to be in Stock

By |2024-01-10T18:44:26+00:00January 6th, 2024|Adobe CS5, Dinosaur Fans, Everything Dinosaur News and Updates, Everything Dinosaur Products, Main Page, Press Releases|0 Comments

Everything Dinosaur will be stocking the new Rebor Dire wolf models. There are two colour variants of Aenocyon dirus. The “low roar” plain version and a colour variant that resembles an extant Gray wolf “Havallagata” version. Each figure will be supplied with three interchangeable heads.

Rebor Dire Wolf “Low Roar” Plain

The Rebor Dire Wolf “low roar” has an intriguing colouration. It reminds us of the Gray wolf subspecies known as the Steppe Wolf (Canis lupus campestris), or perhaps the coat is painted to represent the critically endangered Red wolf (Canis rufus) of the southeastern United States. It is a beautiful model, and it is in approximately 1:11 scale. These models will work well with the recently introduced Rebor Smilodon populator figures.

Each Rebor Dire wolf model is supplied with three interchangeable heads.

The Dire wolf figure can be displayed with its mouth closed or snarling or with its mouth fully open.

To view the current range of Rebor models in stock at Everything Dinosaur: Rebor Models and Figures.

Rebor Dire Wolf “Havallagata” Nord Version

The second colour variant is the “Havallagata” Nord version. It represents a Dire wolf in 1:11 scale. However, it could also depict a giant wolf in 1:18 scale, perhaps something similar to the fearsome animals which featured in the Game of Thrones television series.

The “Havallagata” Nord version is also supplied with three interchangeable heads. Collectors can display their figure snarling, or with the mouth open or closed.

Each wolf will measure around 18.5 cm in length. The height the figures is estimated at 9 cm.

Dire Wolf (Aenocyon dirus)

The Dire wolf (Aenocyon dirus) is a recently extinct member of the dog family. It has an extensive fossil record, mainly from the Americas. An apex predator and hypercarnivore, it probably specialised in hunting Pleistocene megaherbivores. It became extinct around 9,500 years ago. Palaeontologists have suggested that climate change, the decline of prey species or competition from other predators including humans could have been factors in the animal’s extinction.

A spokesperson from Everything Dinosaur praised the Rebor Dire wolf models.

The spokesperson added:

“We are not aware of many Dire wolf figures. Congratulations to Rebor for making such splendid models. Both these Dire wolf figures will be in stock at Everything Dinosaur in a few weeks.”

A New Nanotyrannus Video

By |2024-01-07T16:48:26+00:00January 5th, 2024|Adobe CS5, Dinosaur Fans, Everything Dinosaur Products, Everything Dinosaur videos, Main Page, Press Releases|0 Comments

A new scientific paper published this week postulated that Nanotyrannus (N. lancensis) is a valid taxon. The study was published in the journal “Fossil Studies”. Several lines of scientific enquiry were explored, and the researchers concluded the fossil material ascribed to Nanotyrannus probably did not represent examples of juvenile T. rex.

One of the authors of the study is Dr Nicholas Longrich of the University of Bath. The other author is fellow palaeontologist Dr Evan Saitta, a PhD graduate of the University of Bristol and a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Chicago.

Everything Dinosaur team members created a short video to highlight this research.

Nanotyrannus Models

The debate surrounding the validity of Nanotyrannus is likely to continue. Indeed, this taxon has attracted controversy ever since it was first formally erected in 1946 (Gilmore). However, model manufacturers have produced Nanotyrannus figures. For example, in 2021 PNSO introduced “Logan the Nanotyrannus” and Safari Ltd have made a Dino Dana Nanotyrannus (see below).

Dinosaur fans and model collectors can discuss the validity of this taxon and perhaps these tyrannosaurs can do battle with other tyrannosaur figures animals such as Tarbosaurus and of course Tyrannosaurus rex.

T. rex Ontogeny

More than twenty Tyrannosaurus rex specimens have been described. Palaeontologists are aware that this dinosaur changed its body plan dramatically as it grew and matured. A juvenile T. rex had a proportionately much smaller head, a slender neck and longer legs than the adults. This change in body shape is so dramatic that in all likelihood, juveniles behaved very differently than mature animals. They also probably hunted in different ways.

It is as if adult and juvenile T. rex were different species. If this is the case, then juveniles occupied a very different niche in the ecosystem compared to the fully-grown tyrannosaurs. This helps to explain the confusion over the taxonomy of all the tyrannosaur specimens currently assigned to Nanotyrannus lancensis/Tyrannosaurus rex.

The scientific paper: “Taxonomic Status of Nanotyrannus lancensis (Dinosauria: Tyrannosauroidea) — A Distinct Taxon of Small-Bodied Tyrannosaur” by Nicholas R. Longrich and Evan T. Saitta published in Fossil Studies.

Spinosaurus Model Measurements

A spokesperson from Everything Dinosaur confirmed that the figure measured 32.5 cm in length and that the top of the head was around 14 cm off the ground. Based on the stated scale, this would suggest that Spinosaurus aegyptiacus reached a length of around 11. 3 metres.

Excellent Packing of a Royal Mail Van

By |2024-01-03T14:13:56+00:00January 2nd, 2024|Adobe CS5, Dinosaur Fans, Everything Dinosaur News and Updates, Main Page, Photos, Press Releases|0 Comments

Everything Dinosaur has built up a formidable reputation for its customer service. Our dedication is not limited to the packing of orders for customers, it extends to helping the couriers and other delivery partners that collect from our warehouse. Royal Mail sent a slightly smaller van than usual to our premises. Undaunted we worked with the driver to ensure all the parcels could be sent out. Thanks to our excellent packing we were able to squeeze in all the sacks and individual boxes.

Excellent Packing and Helping Out

Despite the heavy rain, team members were able to assist the van driver and get all the parcels safely loaded into the vehicle. Royal Mail takes care of the majority of our UK domestic deliveries. Most of the parcels in the photograph are being sent out by first class parcel post.

Royal Mail and Everything Dinosaur
Royal Mail usually send out a large van to collect all the parcels from Everything Dinosaur’s warehouse. Due to a lack of vehicles sometimes hired vans are used to collect our parcels. Picture credit: Everything Dinosaur.

Picture credit: Everything Dinosaur

A spokesperson from Everything Dinosaur explained that team members liked to assist drivers collecting parcels from the warehouse. Indeed, sometimes the volume of parcels that were being collected leads to us helping to pack the vehicle so that all the orders can be despatched.

The spokesperson added:

“We appreciate how hard these drivers work. Customer orders are made ready for despatch in plenty of time for their collection at the allotted time. We often help to pack the sacks of orders into Royal Mail vehicles. Thankfully, most of our parcels are square or rectangular in shape, and this does make filling the vans a little easier. Still, it takes quite a lot of effort to get all the parcels in and away.”
