In Stock at Everything Dinosaur, the Box of Mini Prehistoric Animal Models
The CollectA Box of Mini Prehistoric Animal Models
Joining the CollectA mini sets of prehistoric animals series is this new box of mini prehistoric animals, twelve miniature replicas of larger figures within the CollectA range. The models in the box include Megacerops, Daeodon, Paraceratherium, Smilodon, Arsinoitherium, Uintatherium, Andrewsarchus, Moropus, Deinotherium and a Woolly Mammoth. All these are mammals from the Cenozoic, but interestingly the box set features a replica of the giant prehistoric bird Kelenken and the bizarre therapsid Estemmenosuchus – “crowned crocodile”. Estemmenosuchus lived during the Permian, many millions of years before the other creatures featured in the box set evolved.
Borealopelta and the Pterosaur Caiuajara
One of the first of the new models to be announced, back in early November, was the Borealopelta, a model of an armoured dinosaur that was formally named and described in 2017 (Brown et al).

One of the largest models introduced is that of the Brazilian pterosaur Caiuajara (C. dobruskii), it measures 23 centimetres long and that spectacular crest stands around 22 centimetres high. It is a fantastic model of a flying reptile. The Caiuajara model has an articulated lower jaw and it is great to see a replica of a pterosaur added to the CollectA model range.

The CollectA Edaphosaurus and Carnotaurus Figures
Dinosaur fans had been asking CollectA to produce a large, deluxe version of Carnotaurus to accompany their growing range of different types of theropod dinosaur included in the deluxe model range. The CollectA Carnotaurus is spectacular and it has already attracted a number of positive comments on Everything Dinosaur’s Facebook page. The Edaphosaurus figure has also been eagerly anticipated. CollectA made a commitment some time ago to include more animals from the Palaeozoic in their model range. The CollectA Edaphosaurus is the latest example of this policy.
