  • For the longest time, many of you have told me Megaraptor is top on your wishlist. Yet to date, not a single good model has been offered… until now.
    Haolonggood is a company that keeps surprising us with genera we have been asking for, time and again. This time, they’ve turned their attention to Megaraptor, which lends its name to the megaraptoran group.
    Rendered with the quality of sculpt and paint apps HLG often delivers, with lips and an articulated jaw that seals wonderfully, this is going to be a favourite of many collectors!

    Wilson and Cameron may be this channel's size comparitors but the almond is gaining ground.
    Really great review as per usual! It's nice to finally see a Megaraptor out in the market.

      This is one of the best comments I have ever read! I would give it two stars if I could! 🤣🤣👏👏👏

    For so long, we collectors have longed for a Megaraptor, and look who has granted our wish. It's none other than Haolonggood. And unarguably the best Megaraptor figure out there. I think this is the first-ever well-depicted Megaraptor. So a huge thank you goes out to Haolonggood.
    I had a feeling that PNSO would release 'Maip macrothorax' (and I still do), but Haolonggood steps up and delivers these two beauties. I'm glad to see that you've bought both variants this time. Because they both look so elegant. But for me, those strips don't fit well with the figure. They look so unnatural. But the overall quality of the figure stays the same.
    Even though you say you don't know much about megaraptorans, I learned some new things by watching this video. So thank you so much, as always, for sharing your knowledge with us. You are the best in the business. Keep it up, my dear sir. I hope to hear from you soon.🖤🖤

      Wow thank you for your kind words as always! I have to admit that doing reviews have forced me to up my knowledge of theropods, though I still don't really care for them as much as I do other clades, especially the sauropods! Still, the more I read, the more fascinating the megaraptorans seem.
      Previously, it was always CollectA who was first with new dinosaurs. I'm surprised they haven't really surprised us much. Then PNSO was the one that gave us all kinds of variety, but that was a glorious two years ago. And now it looks like HLG is the one to step up to the plate. It's the circle of life one might say 🤣

    so happy to see a megaraptor, with lips too! I gotta pick this one up, even if I don't really like the paint job. I think it'd make a fantastic repaint project.

    • @DinosDragons
      @DinosDragons  9 месяцев назад

      I think if you know how to paint, it would certainly be a very good sculpt to work from! To my knowledge no major company has produced a megaraptorid yet!

  • @thomasmonroe7947

    I like this but the white streaks are not necessary and ruin the paint job….actually, I’d probably do a repaint but, without the jarring white streaks, this is not too bad.

    • @DinosDragons
      @DinosDragons  8 месяцев назад

      The sad thing is that there _are_ areas for which the white streaks actually blend very nicely. But in most others, you can see for yourself. If you can repaint it the way you want of course, that would be ideal!

    Megaraptor is my favorite dinosaur in fact, so seeing a lovely little accurate model makes me incredibly happy! The Mattel Megaraptor which I have pales in comparison to this one!

    • @DinosDragons
      @DinosDragons  3 месяца назад

      Mattel has never been too interested in depicting accurate dinosaurs. If you prefer that aesthetic, I think you will definitely be quite pleased with this. Megaraptor however has been a bit of a jigsaw puzzle, so new discoveries may make this less accurate 😊

    • @thatcorruptdino

    Excelente review! Era un dinosaurio muy esperado y Haolonggood nos dio por fin el placer de tenerlo 😁 Yo prefiero el Megaraptor verde, pero sí se me hacen las líneas blancas un agregado extraño 🤔Yo preferiría un trabajo de pintura más enfocado en diferentes colores difuminados 🤓 Pero me gusta este Megaraptor! 😊

    • @DinosDragons
      @DinosDragons  8 месяцев назад +1

      Esas líneas onduladas son realmente un rompecabezas. ¡HLG sigue incorporando muchos de sus modelos incluso si ya eran lo suficientemente buenos para empezar! Con suerte, esto es algo que mejorarán o dejarán de hacerlo por completo.

    La calidad de ciertos detalles en su modelado, pese a ser una pieza tan pequeña, son muy buenos. Y el punto más interesante es la estabilidad de la pieza, incluso en el momento que le diste un pequeño golpe durante el vídeo, la figura no cayó. Y el cierre de la articulación es fino, lástima que el material sea "débil". Es todo un gusto verte tan activo, amigo 😊

      Gracias amigos y perdón por la respuesta tardía. ¡He estado ocupado porque elegí irme de vacaciones en el momento "equivocado" cuando tanto PNSO como HLG decidieron hacer un lanzamiento doble de producto!
      Pero mi garganta sufrió por ello jajaja. Ahora, justo cuando estoy recuperado, ¡HLG nos regala Tlatolophus!

      ¡Definitivamente! Lo triste es que, en algunas partes, el blanco realmente está bastante bien mezclado. Sin embargo, hay muchas vetas en las que está bastante mal aplicado. De lo contrario, ¡se vería muy bien!
      Sin embargo, en general, ¡es una buena primera representación de este dinosaurio tan interesante!

    What were they thinking with those white stripes? Look like a kid drew them on with a crayon.

    • @DinosDragons
      @DinosDragons  9 месяцев назад

      Hard to say. I mean, you can see where it is a lot more subtle with an added layer and actually looks pretty good. It's the lack of consistency that is puzzling!

  • @grandiosa86
    @grandiosa86 9 месяцев назад +1

    Based on the skeleton I must say that it goes from looking very exciting to a more boring carnivore when it comes to appearance. There were so much room here for experimenting and make something more appealing. They also got a worse paintjob than the Dilophosaurus pair.

      I think it's the way it was painted on without as much consistent subtlety that makes it a bit jarring. Just another wash would have made it really nice I thought!
