Team members at Everything Dinosaur have commissioned a Lokiceratops scale drawing for use in the company’s free Lokiceratops fact sheet. The fact sheet on this horned dinosaur will be sent out free with sales of Lokiceratops figures. The new PNSO Lokiceratops model is due in stock soon. The fact sheet is being prepared as team members await the arrival of the shipment. It will feature the scale drawing. Readers of the fact sheet will be able to see just how big Lokiceratops rangiformis was.

The Lokiceratops Scale Drawing
Lokiceratops is one of the largest centrosaurines described to date. Palaeontologists have estimated that this horned dinosaur grew to more than six and a half metres in length, and it may have weighed around five tonnes. Its fossils were collected from the lower portion of the McClelland Ferry Member of the Judith River Formation in northern Montana. Lokiceratops was formally named and described last year (2024).
Most of the skull is known, although the lower jaw was absent. Postcranial material includes vertebrae, hip bones and the right scapula and coracoid. Lokiceratops possessed two, enormous blade-like horns on the back of its frill (epiparietal two). The super-sized epiparietal two horns are relatively larger than any other parietal epiossification within the Centrosaurinae.
Mike from Everything Dinosaur explained that he researched and then wrote each Everything Dinosaur fact sheet.
He added:
“The Lokiceratops scale drawing is one of about a dozen prehistoric animal drawings that we have commissioned over the last few months. With all these new prehistoric animal models coming into stock, we have a lot of fact sheets to prepare.”
