Everything Dinosaur team members recently took the opportunity to take some photographs of the popular PNSO Deinocheirus model. This replica of an Asian theropod, the largest ornithomimosaur known to science, has proved popular with collectors.

PNSO Deinocheirus Model

Deinocheirus was named and described in 1970 (Osmólska & Roniewicz), from a pair of huge arms and elements from the shoulder girdle. Two further specimens, which were much more complete were described in 2014. Caudal vertebrae associated with the 2014 specimens indicated that this dinosaur had a tail plume, which has been depicted in the PNSO Jacques the Deinocheirus replica.
