The new for 2024 Haolonggood Mamenchisaurus model will be available from Everything Dinosaur.  All three versions should be coming into stock.  Collectors can choose from the green, brown or the limited-edition blue heterochromatic version.  Each figure measures 66 cm long and stands 28 cm tall.  They have been beautifully painted.  Haolonggood has declared a scale of 1:35 for their Mamenchisaurus figures.  At this scale, these dinosaur models represent a sauropod more than twenty-three metres in length.

Although no species has been stated, these figures could represent larger taxa known in this genus. The Haolonggood Mamenchisaurus models could perhaps represent Mamenchisaurus sinocanadorum or Mamenchisaurus hochuanensis.

The Haolonggood Mamenchisaurus Model

The Haolonggood Mamenchisaurus dinosaur model follows the highly successful introduction of the limited-edition Haolonggood Alamosaurus figures.  The Chinese manufacturer also intends to introduce two further sauropods this year, an Amargasaurus and a replica of Camarasaurus.

The green coloured version of the new for 2024 Haolonggood Mamenchisaurus dinosaur model. This is Chai Jin. The model stands 28 cm tall and measures 66 cm long. It has a declared scale of 1:35.

A spokesperson from Everything Dinosaur welcomed the addition of these three, new sauropod figures to the ever-growing Haolonggood model range and exclaimed:

“We are looking forward to stocking all three Mamenchisaurus figures.  We intend to stock the limited-edition figure too.  It may be a while before we can legally ship them into the UK and Europe, we want to add other new figures from Haolonggood to our shipping documentation. Naturally, we will keep our customers informed about our progress.”

A Limited-edition Mamenchisaurus Model

As with previous releases, there is a limited-edition Mamenchisaurus figure.  The blue version (heterochromatic model) will be a limited-edition figure.   Whilst mainly blue-coloured the paint scheme for this dinosaur model will feature other colours (heterochromatic means having a variety of colours).  Collectors will have for a limited period of time, three Haolonggood Mamenchisaurus figures to choose from.

Haolonggood have given Everything Dinosaur permission to publish details about new prehistoric animal model introductions.  We can reveal details of the next fifteen new dinosaur models to be made.  All of these dinosaurs are herbivores.  There are no theropods.  There are no carnivorous dinosaurs planned, at least for the next few months.

Fifteen New Dinosaur Models

The fifteen new dinosaur models from Haolonggood represent three sauropods and five horned dinosaurs.  In addition, there are five members of the Thyreophora (armoured dinosaurs).  The other two dinosaurs are members of the Saurolophinae subfamily of hadrosaurs (Maiasaura and Edmontosaurus).  The majority of the models represent dinosaurs that lived during the Cretaceous and roamed North America.

The full list:

• Mamenchisaurus – known from the Late Jurassic of Asia (China).
• Amargasaurus – a South American member of the Dicraeosauridae from the Early Cretaceous of Argentina.
• Camarasaurus – associated with the famous Morrison Formation of the western United States.
• Huayangosaurus – a primitive stegosaur from the Middle Jurassic of southwestern China.
• Saichania – named after the “Saichan-tue” mountains of the Gobi Desert. Fossils of Saichania come from the Late Cretaceous of Mongolia.
• Gastonia – from the Yellow Cat Member of the Lower Cedar Mountain Formation of Utah (Early Cretaceous).
• Euoplocephalus – named in 1910 (Lambe) and known from Montana and Alberta (Late Cretaceous).
• Maiasaura – “Good Mother Lizard” from the Late Cretaceous of western Canada and the USA.
• Edmontosaurus – a large genus of hadrosaur from North America (Late Cretaceous).
• Diabloceratops – known from Utah, Diabloceratops was the first centrosaurine dinosaur to be described from fossils found south of Montana.
• Utahceratops – from the Late Cretaceous of Utah with the trivial name honouring palaeontologist Mike Getty.
• Styracosaurus – known from the USA and Alberta Canada, the famous centrosaurine called “Spiked Lizard”.
• Einiosaurus – from the Two Medicine Formation of Montana (USA) another Late Cretaceous North American ceratopsid.
• Xenoceratops – “Alien Horned Face” from the Upper Cretaceous beds of the Foremost Formation in Alberta (Canada).

Everything Dinosaur Comments

A spokesperson from Everything Dinosaur praised Haolonggood for focusing on the production of herbivorous dinosaur models.

The spokesperson added:

“These are fifteen splendid dinosaur models.  They should all be in stock by the end of this year.  We look forward to further dinosaur model announcements from Haolonggood.”

Everything Dinosaur will be stocking the new for 2024 PNSO Lufengosaurus dinosaur model.  This model is due to arrive at the company’s warehouse in a few weeks.  The figure, entitled Yiran the Lufengosaurus, demonstrates how far the company has come since their first Lufengosaurus model was introduced.

PNSO Lufengosaurus Dinosaur Model

The new Lufengosaurus figure has been beautifully painted.  Everything Dinosaur has worked with PNSO for many years and ironically, one of the first dinosaur models that PNSO produced was a Lufengosaurus.  The original model was depicted as a quadruped.  However, most palaeontologists consider Lufengosaurus (L. huenei) to have walked on its hind legs for most of the time.  The forelimbs are considerably shorter when compared to the length of this dinosaur’s legs.  In addition, the long neck and widely spaced, peg-like teeth in the jaw suggest that this dinosaur browsed on the branches of trees.

Model Measurements

The new Lufengosaurus figure has already been praised by dinosaur model collectors.  The model measures around twenty-five cm long and it stands nearly eleven centimetres tall.  Although know from dozens of fossil specimens, how big Lufengosaurus huenei was remains uncertain.  It could have measured more than nine metres in length.  However, many vertebrate palaeontologists consider the more conservative body length of six metres more likely.  Based on a six-metre-long animal, this new PNSO Lufengosaurus is in approximately 1:24 scale.  If Lufengosaurus did reach a length of nine metres, this figure would be in approximately 1:36 scale.

The new Lufengosaurus model measures 25 cm long.

A spokesperson from Everything Dinosaur stated that the new Lufengosaurus model was included in the next shipment of PNSO models and figures.  Whilst a definitive delivery date could not be given at this stage, it was likely that the Lufengosaurus would be in stock in about five to six weeks.
