New Tyrannotitan chubutensis Scale Drawing
Team members at Everything Dinosaur have commissioned a new Tyrannotitan chubutensis scale drawing in preparation for the arrival of the new PNSO Tyrannotitan model. The PNSO Mateo the Tyrannotitan figure is due to be in stock later this month (August 2024). Tyrannotitan is closely related to Giganotosaurus and Mapusaurus. It is part of the Giganotosaurini tribe within the Carcharodontosauridae family. It was formally named and described in 2005 (Novas et al).
The new scale drawing of this apex predator is for the Everything Dinosaur Tyrannotitan fact sheet. This fact sheet will be supplied free of charge with sales of the PNSO Tyrannotitan model.

The Tyrannotitan chubutensis Scale Drawing
This theropod is known from fragmentary material. Size estimates vary. However, most palaeontologists consider Tyrannotitan to have been one of the largest meat-eating dinosaurs known to science. It measured around twelve to thirteen metres in length. Tyrannotitan may have weighed more than seven tonnes. Our scale drawing attempts to reflect the size of this huge carnivore. We have chosen to scale our drawing using both the holotype (MPEF-PV 1156) and additional fossil material (MPEF-PV 1157).
The Tyrannotitan chubutensis scale drawing will feature in our new fact sheet. It will be completed in time for the arrival of the new PNSO Mateo the Tyrannotitan figure.

Another South American Theropod Dinosaur Model
Mike from Everything Dinosaur commented that recently PNSO had introduced several South American theropod figures. PNSO has already made Giganotosaurus and Mapusaurus models. In addition, a Meraxes figure was introduced last year (2023).
Mike stated:
“There is an extensive range of theropod figures in the PNSO model range. We are looking forward to receiving the Mateo the Tyrannotitan model. The company has received lots of enquiries about this new dinosaur model. Moreover, we will have a Tyrannotitan fact sheet ready to send out to customers.”
