Everything Dinosaur has been sent photographs of the 1:35 scale Haolonggood Alamosaurus prototypes. Previously, only concept art images were available for versions A and B. Model collectors can gain a better appreciation of the selected colour schemes.

The picture (above) shows the proposed colour scheme for Alamosaurus version A. The horned dinosaurs included in the photograph help to show the size of the titanosaur model. The Haolonggood Alamosaurus is in 1:35 scale and it will stand around thirty-five centimetres tall.

The first batch of these figures will be supplied with a display base, tree and an unpainted pterosaur figure.

Those Alamosaurus models reserved prior to the end of the year will be sent out with a display base, tree and an unpainted pterosaur model. The image (above) shows the Alamosaurus version B. It is standing on the display base and unpainted pterosaur figures (both designs) can be seen in the photograph. Only one unpainted pterosaur model will be sent out with each Alamosaurus.

The Limited-edition Alamosaurus (Version C)

The limited-edition (plain) Alamosaurus figure will only be made once. After the first batch of these models have been sold, that colour scheme will be retired.

Haolonggood are continuing their production of prehistoric animal models. A pair of Baryonyx figures will be available from Everything Dinosaur in a few weeks. The recently announced Kosmoceratops models will follow a few weeks later. Haolonggood dinosaur models are proving to be extremely popular with collectors and dinosaur fans.

Haolonggood Dinosaur Models

Everything Dinosaur already stocks a large selection of Haolonggood prehistoric animal figures.

To view the current range available: Haolonggood Dinosaur Models.

A spokesperson from the UK-based, mail order company commented:

“Haolonggood tend to make a pair of dinosaur figures. By doing this, collectors have a choice between two colour schemes. One of our personal favourites is the Haolonggood Ouranosaurus model. The company amended this figure after being contacted by collectors. Haolonggood corrected the model and improved the manus.”

New PNSO Dinosaur Models

The five new models have been laid out in chronological order. Models of geologically older dinosaurs are on the right. The geologically youngest model, the Alamosaurus is on the far left of the photograph.

A spokesperson from Everything Dinosaur explained that as well as showing the packaging, the photograph provided an opportunity to highlight the substantial differences in the age of the dinosaurs represented by the figures.

Dapeng the Yangchuanosaurus magnus* Nomen dubium – the validity of this species has been questioned. Fossils probably date from the Middle to Late Jurassic.
Dayong the Yangchuanosaurus shangyouensis – Middle to Late Jurassic.
Donald the Saurophaganax – Late Jurassic.
Cayden the Zuul – Late Cretaceous (Campanian faunal stage).
Samuel the Alamosaurus – Late Cretaceous (Maastrichtian faunal stage).

*The superb PNSO Dayong the Yangchuanosaurus is a new theropod figure in the company’s mid-size model series.*

Dating the Age of Yangchuanosaurus Fossil Specimens

Several taxa have been assigned to the Yangchuanosaurus genus. The geological age of fossils ascribed to this genus is extensive. For example, some fossils ascribed to Yangchuanosaurus have been dated to the very Early Cretaceous (Berriasian faunal stage).

Team members at Everything Dinosaur were asked to provide the measurements for the CollectA Deluxe Dearc pterosaur figure. The Dearc sgiathanach will be in stock at Everything Dinosaur in early 2024. We anticipate it arriving around March 2024.

CollectA Deluxe Dearc sgiathanach Model

Fans of the CollectA Deluxe and Supreme ranges have been eager to learn more about this new 1:3 scale flying reptile figure. We have been asked to confirm the model’s measurements.

The pterosaur measures approximately 39 cm from the tip of its tail vane to the end of the articulated jaw. Dearc’s head is around 11.5 cm off the ground. In addition, the tallest wing tip is 16.3 cm high. The model’s width is approximately 13.5 cm.

A spokesperson from Everything Dinosaur praised the colouration of this new pterosaur figure. The spokesperson stated:

“Dearc has been given a similar colouration as the northern gannet. This is appropriate as Dearc probably filled a similar niche in the Jurassic ecosystem. In addition, gannets are very common on the Isle of Skye where the Dearc fossils were found.”

The spokesperson also confirmed that this exciting new pterosaur figure will be available in early 2024.

New Schleich Moros intrepidus – Two Digits or Three?

By Mike|2023-12-18T17:26:48+00:00December 17th, 2023|Adobe CS5, Dinosaur Fans, Everything Dinosaur News and Updates, Everything Dinosaur Products, Everything Dinosaur videos, Main Page, Press Releases|0 Comments

The new for 2024 Schleich Moros intrepidus model is in stock at Everything Dinosaur. Schleich have given their Moros figure two digits on each hand, do you think this is correct? The manus of this tyrannosauroid is unknown. No fossils of hand bones or fingers have been found, as far as we at Everything Dinosaur are aware. Did this distant relative of Tyrannosaurus rex have two fingers on each hand?

We will post up a brief video on our social media pages asking this question shortly.

Moros intrepidus – Two Digits on the Hand or Three?

This small tyrannosauroid lived around thirty million years before T. rex evolved. When it was described (Zanno et al, 2019), the illustration that accompanied the media notes showed this dinosaur with two digits per hand.

To read Everything Dinosaur’s blog post from 2019 about this dinosaur: Fleet-footed Tyrannosaur Leaps 70 Million Year Gap.

Earlier tyrannosauroids had three digits on each hand. So, the question is how many digits on each hand did Moros have? In Everything Dinosaur’s short video, we ask our fans, followers and customers for their views.
