To purchase the new for 2019 Papo Stegosaurus and the other models and figures in the Papo range: Papo Prehistoric Animal Models.
A Makeover for the Papo Stegosaurus
The sculpt is as per the original Papo Stegosaurus figure but the model has been completely re-painted with the characteristic plates on the back and running down to the tail an almost “blood red” colour. This works well with the countershading highlighted on the figure’s body and the overlying dark stripes that provide a reticulation-like effect. As collectors would expect from a Papo figure, the painting is excellent and the detailing around the open beak and the eye is particularly remarkable. Eagle-eyed readers will observe tiny round spots of lighter paint in amongst the darker stripes, a nice touch from the design team at Papo.

A spokesperson from Everything Dinosaur commented:
“We are not certain about the future of the original Papo Stegosaurus figure. It, for the moment is included in the latest 2019 collector’s booklet and the main Papo catalogue. However, we note that earlier this year, Papo introduced a new colour variant Allosaurus model and this new figure has effectively replaced the original Allosaurus. The first Allosaurus model to be made by Papo has been withdrawn from catalogues and company promotional materials. If we receive news about the original Papo Stegosaurus we will make sure we post this information up onto our social media sites to help keep everybody informed.”
