The Papo Gorgosaurus
The Papo Gorgosaurus model is the second member of the Tyrannosauridae family to be depicted by Papo, after the ubiquitous Tyrannosaurus rex. The Gorgosaurus figure reflects the fossil record in that this model is considerably smaller than the various Papo T. rex models. It measures around eighteen centimetres in length and the head of the dinosaur is approximately eight centimetres off the ground.

The Papo Pentaceratops
Papo have produced a number of horned dinosaur models in the past. For example, this manufacturer has an adult Triceratops within its model portfolio and until recently a baby Triceratops (it is now retired), too. In addition, Papo did once have a Pachyrhinosaurus (also out of production), but the Papo Styracosaurus model is still available. Although Pentaceratops means “five-horned face”, this dinosaur had three anterior facing horns on its head. It may superficially resemble Triceratops but Pentaceratops is believed to be more closely related to Utahceratops from Utah.
The Papo Pentaceratops Dinosaur Model is in a Rearing Pose
An Unusual Pose
The Papo Pentaceratops dinosaur model stands an impressive nineteen centimetres high. This is an unusual pose for a horned dinosaur and it is difficult to provide an estimate of the scale of the model. Papo does not offer a scale size suggestion for their “Les Dinosaures” range, but based on an adult size for Pentaceratops sternbergii of around 6.3 metres, this new for 2019 Papo figure is in approximately 1:32 scale.
These splendid Papo dinosaurs can be viewed in the 2019 Papo collector’s booklet. This handy booklet is available free of charge to Everything Dinosaur customers.
