- Errata: In the video I made a mistake when I said Lingwu is in Southwest China. It's actually in the Northwest. Thanks to viewer Alyarato Tyelcuvo for the spot!
AT LAST Not just a sauropod from PNSO, but a big one at 1:35! This is the Chinese sauropod Lingwulong, a significant dinosaur that extends the distribution of dipodocoids throughout the world.
PNSO does this beautiful sauropod justice with an intricate sculpt and pleasing colour scheme and paint application that makes the wait for a 1:35 sauropod from them more than worth it. I’m absolutely delighted by this masterpiece!

Pnso really stood out with this piece. The detail that it presents throughout the body with those scales and folds of skin is sensational. Something that makes me curious is the detail of the face with those teeth and that beak that the truth is that I know he always looks smiling, in fact I decided to change Alfredo's name for that charismatic face, the truth is he raffled it off with this dicraeosauride sauropod. great review mate greetin😎👍.
Thank you HuertSauri! This really went beyond my expectations, and I love it for a perfect example of what scale detail looks like on a sauropod, and of course it has to be a 1:35 to look realistic. The toothy grin is something people either like or hate, but luckily I'm not affected by it at all. Indeed I have to get more used to the idea of a beak of sauropods 😁 PNSO really hit it out of the park and I am pleased that it just continues to improve.
i know lips or exposed teeth is still debated and both hold good points in general (well here we got a beak so i guess exposed or incased in the beak of the animal) but i like when exposed teeth sometimes make the reconstructions look...well...like some people would say "goofy" or just neutral
it makes this feature pop up like a natural characteristic not as something that is supposed to make the animal look scary or cool it's just how it is nothing is goofy or scary in nature it's just our view of it these things as scary or goofy but in reality they are...well just natural stuff no matter if they look scary or goofy to us they are what they are and it doesnt change
@@DinosDragons there is actually a paper that backs up the cornified beak/exposed teeth look!
Just wow.♥️♥️.
Finally, a 1/35 human figure to show how big this amazing sauropod in the actual. 👍👍👍. I can imagine right away how tiny I am. 🤣
And It just shows how fragile human being if get step on by this dinosaur🤣.
It really makes sense. Amazing.
That's one thing that awes me about dinosaurs and sauropods in particular. Can you imagine how that is going to look next to a 1:35 titanosaur like a Patagotitan! 🤣🤣
@@DinosDragons absolutely sir. 😁
And hopefully PNSO will stick to a 1/35 scale dinosaur figures regardless with their actual sizes.
It just really makes sense if you display them side by side.
I only have 4 dinosaurs yet in my display shelf. PNSO Brand also. Chacharodontosaurus, Ankylosaurus, Lambeosaurus, and Triceratop. Each has human figure beside it.
Everytime I look at it, it keeps reminding me how small I am compare to an actual dinos.😁.
Verry satisfied with my set up. 😄.
Thanks for another lesson/review man. Now l know that this magnificent sauropod is 1:35 scale and that makes me an idea for the relative sizes between the species PNSO delivered to us. After watching your videos l always learned something new and also include something new to my collection.
Thank you for your comment! I believe are all learning all the time, and I'm still continuing to learn. In fact I often learn something that supplants or contradicts some conclusion I might have made, so I will often put those amendments and errata in the description box.
I am grateful for all my viewers but I am especially rewarded when people like yourself actually watch the science part of the video, which is a bit of a passion of mine. Let's hope for more good dinosaurs from PNSO! They really make such good models that it also compels me to say more about the dinosaurs they make.
An incredible amount of detail. PNSO has clearly mastered the art sculpting of tiny scales. Great review!
Thanks William! And you add to that a saurpod that is actually _1:35_ and that realism is all the more enhanced. Here's to hoping for more 1:35 sauropods!
this is amazing figure...i will sure do anything to get it no matter how long it takes since sauropods are my top favourite figures and also the amazing 1:35 scale that allows all these different scale variations to pop up which we know sauropods had from skin impressions which sadly could not be visible in the mamenchisaurus due to its smaller scale
another idea for the cyan tail in my opinion is to display the weapon to the threat just like some animals have vibrant colors to scare predators away this one has this color that basically means "stay back" towards the predators of it's environment
Absolutely right about the 1:45 Mamenchisaurus. As impressive as the detailing on that was, imagine if these same absolute sizes are used to depict the smaller scales on a 1:35 sauropod. The kind of differentiation of detail is going to be absolutely out of this world!
I think any theropod who's had the receiving end of that whip like tail will give those warning colours a wide berth... those still alive that is!
I really can’t wait until it’s available here in Britain! I hope the rumours about more sauropods coming from PNSO are true!
Whether true or not, I hope _some_ at least will be in 1:35!
Finally, a huge sauropod from PNSO.
I've bought my Lingwulong few days ago and I'm waiting for it with impacience but seeing your video I really can't wait for it to arrive now.
Great review as always!
You are _absolutely_ going to _LOVE_ it!
I've already got mine. It's the best sauropod model I've ever seen.
Just ordered it! It is a large beauty indeed! I am definitely all in on PNSO giving us fewer but higher quality figures
You said it! If you work it out, if PNSO spreads out releases, but gives us both big 1:35 figures and high detail, the total sum we would pay would probably work out to be the same. It would also make people less cautious about buying compared to when it comes out almost weekly.
It's a lot bigger than I expected, it totally dwarfs the Eofauna Diplo. I'm definitely getting it now. Big, beautiful model and obscure species? Sign me up!
Here's hoping for more from PNSO! I really want the big three: Brontosaurus + Diplodocus + Brachiosaurus in 1:35 from PNSO! I suppose a Patagotitan would be out of the question unless they make hollow vinyl models again.
Never got around to giving my thoughts on the PNSO Lingwulong. I just received a PNSO Zhuchengtyrannus which is beautiful with the subtle green that I did not pick up on from your review of that figure, and was looking at it next to the Lingwulong.
They’re both awesome figures and Lingwulong is so well sculpted and is a hefty chunk of dinosaur goodness.
This is in my top 3 favorite PNSO figures.
I highly recommend picking one up.
Keeping my fingers crossed that PNSO delivers more sauropods in an approximate 1/35 scale.
I'm glad you got it! Yes unfortunately the dynamic range of my camera is not the best, and I've noticed that especially with green hues, it falls short. Noticed that with the PSNO Styracosaurus as well 😌
I for one will not argue with PNSO needing to give us more 1:35 sauropods! Hopefully the upset raised in the Chinese forums over the small 1:45 Mamenchisaurus would make them consider. The really difficult thing then, is actually in the cost of shipping to get the 1:35 out to you.
What was the third of your top three?
@@DinosDragons The number 1 spot has to go to their large vinyl Ceratosaurus. That is just one incredibly well done figure. And I favor their Lambeosaurus to round out my top 3.
The Zhuchengtyrannus would be in the running but he’s got a case of crazy eye that I’ll try to fix.
As always, your reviews are the best not just because of your showcasing the figures but the extra excellent content giving us all some science behind them. Something I hope we continue to get.
Take care my friend.
This is a very nice model, but the brown is a bit PNSO standard. I actually like the toothy grin, and it would have been nice for some of the tail colour on the rest of the body! As always you bring us the best reviews!
Thanks Richard, I don't dare claim that but I am delighted you like my videos!
The frequent choice of browns is something fans on the Chinese forums are also talking about, and all are hoping for something a little different from PNSO. It's a little puzzling, you would think they have the hard part already, which is sculpting detail and scientific accuracy, the colour should be an easy thing to effect. Especially if you have seen Zhao Chuang's artwork you know he has a lot of creativity in terms of colouration too.
Awesome figure! Awesome video!
Haha thank you I really loved this figure so it was easy to review! It really speaks for itself! 😁
Not a big fan of sauropods, but this hefty boy is really rather impressive. I definitely support the idea of sticking to 1:35 scale figures all the way!
(Also, just discovered that Gorgosaurus and Albertosaurus have very complete fossil remains, so here's hoping PNSO does another series of tyrannosaurids!)
I certainly hope so, but the cost for large 1:35 dinosaurs, especially with shipping to the West, is going to be a big problem. This Lingwulong is really hefty and solid, and I think unless PNSO went back to hollow PVC it would be a hard sell. I still keep hoping though.🤞
The tyrannosaurids I think have a challenge in that most of them are so morphologically similar that it would be harder for casual collectors to appreciate subtle differences even if they could be seen. Parents aren't going to buy children 3 dinosaurs that look the same superficially 😪 But if they do, then hopefully they can differentiate them by things like paint and pattern. I think people are running out of goodwill with regards to the stripes 😥
I'm very proud of PNSO for doing a unknown but cool sauropod also it's reasonable big so that's a plus
Also great video,hope you have a grant day
Thanks mate, if you get this one you'll see it looks even better in person!
Exactly what I was waiting for. :)
You're never too old for a huge sauropod I always say! 😁
@@DinosDragons After seeing it in person through screen thanks to your video I‘ve directly ordered mine. Looks stunning. Should arrive in time for my birthday :D
Love your reviews! Lingwu city is (Ningxia province) culturally part of northwest China though :)
Yikes good catch! I actually said _South_ West 🤦♂️ I'll put an errata in the description box immediately!
I hope for more Sauropod figures as well but I just hope more interesting color schemes and maybe even striking ones but still natural looking 🤔
Excellent review!
Thank you! And exactly... we want a balance between interesting and natural looking, which is a hard balancing act 😁 I still don't see any reason why huge dinosaurs can't have some featured colour here and there, if only for attraction or special differentiation.
@@DinosDragons Np!
Like around 0:10 those Sauropods by Andrey Atuchin all look so amazing! Like those color schemes would be amazing.
Absolutely delighted to see a Sauropod from PNSO. The moment I saw this 'Lingwulong' figure the first sauropod that came to my mind was the 'Rebbachisaurus'. Because they both had ridged backs and tall spines. (I think Dicraeosaurinae is a subfamily of Rebbachisauridae) And in my opinion, Rebbachisaurids are one of the most underappreciated and underrepresented sauropods in the dinosaur toy figure industry. The only figure I know is 'Nigersaurus' and that ugly and retro-looking 'Rebbachisaurus' figure. Either way, just like these obscure sauropods, there are some more unique and unknown species of dinosaurs out there that need more figures and hopefully, PNSO will do them justice. Excellent review as always my dear Sir
Wow mate you sure know a lot about dinosaurs! I had completely forgotten about the rebbachisaurids. I hope that PNSO does do one of these, especially Nigersaurus. I think it has the sculpting knowhow and as primitive sauropods hopefully 1:35 won't be considered too big to sell.
All the credits goes out to you my dear sir. Because of you, I get inspired and motivated to learn more things about these amazing creatures. And I will continue to learn until the day I die. Learning never stops.
As you know I'll have to pass this beauty. But I really and truly hope that PNSO will make more amazing figures like this and you all will be able to get them without any problems. And I'm looking forward to watching all those videos ;)
The only animals I could think of would be a juvenile blue tailed monitor or a blue spiny lizard, I don't recall any other kind of reptile with a black bands around a blue tail. There are lots of species who have brown to blue fades without that specific patterning though, many kinds of skink come to mind. I really hope pnso takes more risks with color in the future, they take so much inspiration from mammals like kudu and other ungulates. I want to see something flashy taken from a bird like the hoatzin or a scrubfowl of sorts.
Awesome review! I can’t wait to acquire this model. I’ve been wondering if you plan on reviewing Rebor’s scientifically accurate trex and in the future their upcoming diplodocus?
I'm interested in that one too!
I usually don't review non-Chinese models simply because by the time I receive them, all of you in the West would already have it for a while already, unless there are things I really want to say about it or the dinosaur, as I only want to do videos that add something to what's already available! That said I foresee that I'll have something to say about Rebor's T Rex 😉😉 It will probably be way after you've already received yours!
@@DinosDragons That's fair.
I'd be willing to wait 😉
The detail of this model is so amazing. It's not like any other sauropod models I've seen before, different sizes of countless scales instead of elephant-like skin, and the head is so nicely sculpted. I really hope this is the beginning of PNSO's sauropod age.
I hope so too! The Mamenchisaurus at 1:45 just wasn't satisfying enough, and you can see on this 1
1:35 just how detailed the scales can be, and still look real! The challenge is how to make it affordable. PNSO has a large Western market now they have to also look after, and the price of shipping and middle-man charges are going to be astronomical if they make dinosaurs that are overly huge. Imagine when Huanghetitan came out, it cost the Western collectors 2-3x what we pay here! ☹
@@DinosDragons Of course it blows Erma away, and easily beats Amagasaurus which is also a big scale sauropod model. Lingwulong is just too good. I see the price of PNSO in EU and North America is ridiculously high, I don't know why. The shipping costs and tax should not be that high.
Thanks for the video!! See you later!! Stay safe.😊
You're most welcome!
老哥测评很稳😁
Can't wait for this to hit UK shores! Looks amazing!
It truly is a pleasure to have and to hold! It actually holds its ground with the old Carnegie sauropods!
Excelente video saludos desde Ecuador
Mucho gusto por el complido! 😁
No.
No, no, no.
No, no, no, no.
Please!
PNSO to continue their sauropods in 1/35!
It only makes sense as a standout continuation of a superb line of well crafted figures that will reign for years to come.
If they cut out the museum line excessiveness of posters, etc., and market future large scale figures as Rebor has done, they will continue to capture the appreciation and wallet stuffing from collectors everywhere.
Having the ability, as a collector and enthusiast, to fill a showcase with near scaled figures would be a boon even if the cost is semi-sauropdish.
Keep it as consistent as possible and I’ll purchase each new offering, guaranteed.
Mix up the scales…..I’ll have to pass on whatever doesn’t fit unless it’s an outstanding piece.
It makes a difference to some(me🙂).
As usual, a great review and one I’ve been looking forward to.
This will be my next Dino purchase.
Overbite included.
It certainly would make sense because even on the Chinese forums, many collectors were unhappy with the 1:45 scale chosen for MAmenchisaurus, since this is a dinosaurs many Chinese are obviously very proud of. The problem with 1:35 is the cost, and the weight to ship to the West, and then the hefty prices they would pay for that.
That said, we all are really hoping for more 1:35 scale sauropods, at least of the popular genera like Apatosaurus and Brachiosaurus and Diplodocus. Perhaps they will one day consider hollow vinyl figures again, which _would_ help to save on shipping.
You are definitely going to like this Lingwulong!
Excellent video!!!
Would you ever consider reviewing the CollectA Elasmosaurus and Xiphactinus? Your perspective on these species would be fantastic!
I don't have the CollectA Elasmosaurus as I've been holding out for a PNSO plesiosaur.
As for Xiphactinus, unfortunately it's not a fish I have done a lot of reading on, so I wouldn't be able to speak about it the way I like to for my videos with the science and it would be just another review to the good ones that already exist on RUclips 😁
But I'll get round to reading about it because I do like individual fish, such as Dukleosteus, and hopefully when PNSO does one, not to mention a plesiosaur, you can bet I'll talk about them!
Excelente figura, no pensé que sería tan robusta, te felicito!!! Has una revisión del eofauna diplodocus! Saludos desde Chile
Por seguro, es an modelo más impresionante.
A decir verdad, ahora no mucho tiempo hacer revisiónes. He descuidado mis dragones también 😁 Quizás en el futuro pueda hablar del EoFauna Diplodocus!
Hopefully we get a 1/35 scale brachiosaurus because I don't think the nanmu brachi is accurate is it?
The W Dragon Giraffatitan is accurate I believe and it's 1/35
@@MahmWithThePlan it's discontinued and very expensive on the aftermarket. PNSO should make a Brachio
@@BananaCake26 I am extremely sad to hear that. It only came out 2 years ago. Then PNSO definitely needs to make a Brachiosaurus
I definitely hope so! Obviously they can't make all sauropods 1:35 as it would bankrupt us all, but a Brachiosaurus is certainly an iconic sauropod I would save up for at that scale, as well of course as the other two of the big THREE - Brontosaurus and Diplodocus!
Dinodragons where did you get that small human? I need it as a size comparison for my pnso
Wow I really don't know. I got it from a friend who collects all kinds of miniatures. In fact he just got this painted and gifted it to me. Apparently in China there are many 1:35 model enthusiasts and I imagine the same might be true in the West as well. I'm sorry I know absolutely nothing about kits and models except the dinosaur ones that I pay for, and even then I have to buy the fully assembled and painted as I have zero knowledge here.
@@DinosDragons its OK, thanks anywas :)
I love this piece...a must have for any Dino Collector... Now PNSO please give us also 1:35 scale Argentinasaurus or Sauroposeidon or these armored Sauropods Saltasaurus, Ampelosaurus or club tailed Shunosaurus...
I love sauropods and my favourite group are the titanosaurs.
I have a dream... .an IMPOSSIBLE DREAM.... of a 1:35 Argentinosaurus from PNSO. It will be 95cm (37in) long and 65cm (25in), and take up the room of 35 dinosaurs on my shelf. 🤣🤣
9:00 I'm pretty sure you were thinking about green iguana.
Haha well the striping pattern certainly matches! But can I have it in blue? 🤣
DANG IT! I ain't got much money left PNSO.
Lol yes, I really hope they widen the frequency of releases. I'd rather they did that, and give us bigger dinosaurs which while more expensive, would have the blow cushioned somewhat by having time for our wallets to regenerate themselves!
This one is ridiculously detailed! Totally worth the money!
You said it! And at that whopping size too... I'm over the moon!
Pnso needs to make bruhathkayosaurus and barosaurus
Granted, they _have_ made models of dinosaurs from extremely fragmentary material, but Bruhathkayosaurus I'm not too keen on. And any titanosaurs is likely never going to be anywhere near 1:30. It would never sell well in the West because of the cost! Barosaurus I'm very very keen on! But again I doubt they'll go 1:35 with this one 😌
9:00 maybe a banded sea krait or a whiptail blue lizard?
I don't think so. My knowledge on extant reptiles is near zero but i'm pretty sure I've seen almost this exact same pattern somewhere before 😅
크기가 너무크게나왔다 17m인데 47cm라니.. 1/30스케일이 맞다
40cm로나왔으면 좋았을뻔했다
Lingwulong has been estimated to be up to 19-20m. So at 54cm it works out to about 1:35.
