Formally named and described in 2014 (Lacovara et al), Dreadnoughtus (D. schrani) is one of the largest terrestrial vertebrates known to science. Most super-sized titanosaurs are described from fragmentary material. Dreadnoughtus is an exception, approximately 45% of the skeleton was recovered. These fossils have provided palaeontologists with new information on the anatomy of giant dinosaurs.

Next year (2024) marks the centenary of the scientific description of Velociraptor. This famous dinosaur (Velociraptor mongoliensis) was first described in 1924 (Osborn). To commemorate the hundred years since this dinosaur was first named, CollectA have introduced a 1:6 scale figure that reflects the very latest research.

The CollectA Deluxe Velociraptor depicts this iconic dinosaur as an extremely agile and active animal. The plumage has been updated and the Velociraptor figure sports a propatagium, a flap of soft tissue linking the wrists to the shoulders, a feature it shares with living birds that can fly.
