The new Rebor Goo Goo Doll Beelzebufo figure is impressive.  This is one of two scale models of Beelzebufo ampinga that have been introduced by Rebor.  It has an articulated jaw and articulated legs.  When the legs are stretched out the figure measures twenty-six centimetres in length.  The model has been given a coat of gloss to give the impression of moist skin.  It is a stunning model.

The Rebor Goo Goo Doll Beelzebufo Replica

We suspect that the name was inspired by the American rock band the Goo Goo Dolls.  Rebor have named several models after famous pop/rock groups or rock/pop songs.  The phylogeny of this taxon remains uncertain.  Hence the two model versions.  Goo Goo Doll reminds us of Ranoidea australis, a large frog native to northern Australia.  Beelzebufo ampinga might be distantly related to this species. However, the second model variant (Little Feet) has hornlets above the eyes reminiscent of the horned frogs of South America.  When first described, it was thought that Beelzebufo was related to the horned frogs of the Southern Hemisphere.

The exact taxonomic affinity of the Beelzebufo taxon remains uncertain. The image shows the 1:2 scale Rebor Beelzebufo ampinga Goo Goo Doll version in anterior view.

Mike from Everything Dinosaur stated:

“I am not sure which variant is my favourite.  Both figures show exceptional levels of detail.  The articulation enables collectors to put their prehistoric frog into a variety of poses.  We congratulate the design team at Rebor.”

An Impressive Scale Model

The Rebor Goo Goo Doll Beelzebufo model presents this prehistoric frog at an impressive 1:2 scale. It captures the broad skull and powerful jaws with striking accuracy. Fine surface detailing enhances the realism of the sculpt. As a result, this replica makes a striking and unusual centrepiece for any prehistoric animal collection.
