  • PNSO is back! Fresh off the Chinese New Year break, PNSO starts big by giving us an update of one of the largest theropods ever - Giganotosaurus!
    Lucas version 2 has some important anatomical updates that brings the form of the head more in line with current belief, such as the inferior skull margin and the proportions of the preorbital area. Honouring the general pattern and colour palette of Lucas version 1, this refresh brings with it the current aesthetic in sculpt detail and paint application characteristic of PNSO’s newest offerings.
    Truly a beautiful theropod to have and to hold, this is a welcome addition to my collection of theropods in 1:35!

    I repainted my Eofauna Giga, and I'm pretty satisfied with it. I do really like the new Lucas as well, but it's becoming increasingly difficult to justify the 50+ % mark-up on the 'museum' line figures with the only difference over a standard figure being the mountain of extra paper that comes with them.

      It is indeed unfortunate that shipping doesn't make things any more pleasant for enthusiasts out of Asia. I do miss the bases, they always elevate the model somehow. Out of curiosity, if it wasn't for all the material heavying up the shipping costs, which would are the top 3 favourite PNSOs you would get?

      @@theimmortaleye7511 Not at all! I always welcome what my viewers have to say! Europe I hear is especially crazy with the VAT and all. As I recall, Lingwulong isn't a Museum Line, so the 'consolation' is that whatever price you pay, none of it goes to the material that some people don't want to have. The heft of this 1:35 sauropod however, means that yes, it will cost you. That's one reason why PNSO decided to go with 1:45 for its largest animals, like the Mamenchisaurus as well as the large marine animals. I still feel that if they could offer hollow PVC figures like they did originally, that might be a compromise and help save on shipping cost. That said, I believe some shipping systems are pretty cunning. They will either charge by weight or volume, whichever nets them the most money. 😡

    I know I always say PNSO figures are the best, that's because they are. Each and every time they give us a figure that knocks out all the other figures. I'm not downgrading other companies. But when it comes to the overall beauty, PNSO wins. And this time also, they gave us the perfect Giganotosaurus, and I'm in love with this. ❤ I'm sure PNSO listens to its customers. So I'm sure I'll see 'Maip macrothorax and Llukalkan' soon. As always another wonderful review my dear sir.

    I’m pretty sure during the 1990’s the anatomy of carcharodontosaurids weren’t well understood and used other carnosaurs as a point of reference during their initial reconstructions. The outdated skull mount seems to have used Allosaurus as reference, which would explain the sloped jugal bones.

      Thank you! I think you hit it on the head! It makes perfect sense as Giganotosaurus is an allosauroid as well. I completely overlooked the fact that what we have now isn't what they might have had way back when this was discovered. And I guess once this got started, few manufacturers or artists thought to relook it. Shows how much I pay attention to my theropods! 😪

It’s interesting how as more fossil material for dinosaur groups are found, the smaller it’s member appear to be. Spinosaurus for example has been knocked down to 13.7 meters long and 7,400 kg in weight in Paul Sereno’s 2022 paper.

    Really appreciated the breakdown of the Giga's skull fragments, as well as general Carcharodontosaurid details. This remake gives me hope that they might revamp Wilson with smoother skin textures, or even Paul the Allosaurus with larger claws and a more definitive jawline...
    Can't wait to see what's next, especially after their Suchomimus was released! PNSO are really making my fav species one by one...

      Indeed... I completely forgot about that Allosaurus claw! I feel that they aren't going to do that just for the claw, but it might happen later during a lull period. However, I have no doubt that in terms of popularity and profit potential, the T Rex is just begging to be remade! They might be biding their time to really perfect it... I have a sneaking suspicion if PNSO ever decides to do lips again, the T Rex would be a prime candidate! 😁

    Great review!! 👍🏻👍🏻
    Personally I hope they won’t make another Tyrannosaurus and Spinosaurus with the Eofauna and the Mesozoic Life versions on the horizon, respectively. I can’t imagine those two being toppled. Instead, when it comes to their Museum Line (which I hope they would just ditch anyways as they’re unnecessarily more expensive than the prehistoric animal models line) an updated Amargasaurus would be much more needed imo (I see them doing it). There are also tons of exquisitely preserved dinosaurs from their local Jehol Biota they haven’t felt like exploring in much depth, imo those taxa would be much more interesting subject for figures than the fragmentary Zhuchengtyrannus, “Sinopliosaurus”… 😅

    • @DinosDragons
      @DinosDragons  Год назад +1

      Good point! I'm especially keen to see how the Mesozoic Life Spinosaurus turns out. PNSO is probably taking its time to really study and think about the next version of Wilson. Certainly they've seen enough to give them an idea of what works and what doesn't!
      Absolutely agree that there are many Chinese dinosaurs just begging for a release. Those would have to be in larger than 1:35 I believe to fully show them in their splendour. I wouldn't mind a different scale for smaller dinosaurs for sure!
      And how could I forget Amargasaurus! My favourite dinosaur clade are the sauropods, so an update to this dinosaur would be very welcome! Especially since it's a relatively small dicraeosaurid, they have to give it to us in 1:35! 😁

    They are both a little over 32 inches in length and I’m going to assume Some Assembly Required. The photos provided also show the neck and tail elements to have a high degree of motion for posing possibilities.

    Hello DinosDragons! I have really enjoyed your pnso model reviews. I am starting a collection myself but due to budget and space, I cant really buy alot. Do you have like a top 5-10 reccomended models i should pick? Thank you so much!

    • @DinosDragons
      @DinosDragons  Год назад

      Interesting I've had quite a few similar questions, and I would say that you should first list out your criteria.
      For example, if you have limited space, how do you envision using it? Do you have size or scale preferences? Would you like to have many small models, or a few large ones? That already helps you factor in cost and prices.
      Because of limited space, it's better to spend on a few quality ones you really want, which meet most of your criteria, then to spend on lesser ones you will regret later.
      What are these criteria? For example is scientific accuracy the most important thing to you? That will exclude a lot already and you may have to save up for PNSOs or even Rebor if they continue their current focus.
      Or do you really want something beautifully sculpted with very high detail? Then you could start to consider Papo at the lower end and Nanmu at the higher end since the scientific accuracy isn't an issue.
      What price range would be considered acceptable if it meets all your criteria?
      Last of all, I would advise anyone starting out, not to think in terms of a _collection_ unless it's what you really want. Many of us started buying stuff we liked, and in time, then it became a collection, at the cost of money and space. But many others don't really, and then they have a few precious pieces that take up fewer total space.
      Starting in terms of buying a few you like instead of getting a collection going means you don't feel like you must fill up a certain quota as well. I don't know how old you are, but many collectors as they get along, get married, have kids, and so on, find that they are forced to prune their collections for most space. It's a very sad process for many, and so it's something worth considering too.
      Good luck! 😁

      It's really all to do with how wide you want to stretch phylogenetic bracketing, and then extrapolate from that. PNSO has in fact included feathers in their included artwork, although the actual model itself won't have it.

      There is that hot water idea where you soften it in hot water, then hold it in the position you want.It should keep when it cools down. But it is never permanent. Unfortunately PNSO uses a really soft material compared to HLG who use a harder plastic for their legs.

    • @DinosDragons
      @DinosDragons  Год назад +1

      The De Clay Studio T Rex is an example of painting at its finest and most complex, and how a model can be elevated to the heavens because of it. One might argue it's not really _high priced_ but _high value_ because you can see it's worlds apart from what many people are doing. It's the kind of work I wuld buy not to put together with the other 300 dinosaurs, but in a special spot on its own. Especially if you get the 1:35, because there are many other dinosaurs larger.
      The 1:20 version would be truly a centrepiece work of art, and there's not a chance of it getting lost. I would definitely buy that... if I struck the lottery.

      I think it comes down to what you look for in a model, and whether you like the genus enough if you already have the others. The Acrocanthosaurus I would feel is sufficiently different in colour and form to get. Carcharodonto and Giganoto is a harder thing to differentiate 😪 For me I did want an update to a pretty important dinosaur incorporating Meraxes, so I got it. If you're not really particular, I think you would be happy with the Carcharodontosaurus, though it does have a rather pointy snout.

      Firstly, if you have a source to quote for your size estimate, I will look it up and check its credibility, and then put it in the description box above.
      Secondly, you seem to misunderstand that my claim for Tyrannosaurus is based on some kind of national pride and wanting the biggest to be North American. If you have watched my other videos, you will know that my favourite dinosaurs are the sauropods, and especially the titanosaurs, and my favourites are Argentinosaurus and Patagotitan, both of which are proudly South American.
      I focus on fact and sharing what science I know here without bias or any kind of vested interest. I'm not in the least interested in making this channel a place where non-related, invectives are tossed about, including whether the biggest and baddest are North American, South American, Central, East or West American. Nature doesn't care about such distinctions. Perhaps if we didn't, there would be more peace and less strife in the world.
