Papo Archaeopteryx Model (2014) – Vital Statistics

Everything Dinosaur team members have just received an update from Papo of France about the measurements of the eagerly awaited Archaeopteryx figure.  This information is helpful to collectors and dinosaur model fans as it enables a scale for the actual model to be calculated.

Papo Archaeopteryx Model (2014 Release)
New from Papo for 2014 a model of Archaeopteryx.

New from Papo for 2014 a model of Archaeopteryx.

Dimensions of the new for 2014 Papo Archaeopteryx model:

  • Length = 12.5 cm
  • Wingspan = 13.5 cm
  • Height = 6.5 cm

Based on an approximate wingspan of Archaeopteryx lithographica being around 50 centimetres, we calculate that the new Papo model will be in 1:3.75 scale approximately.  No launch date has been announced by Papo, we don’t have a manufacture date either but we will find out more as we have a meeting with Papo senior management shortly and then we can post up more information on this blog.
