The five recently introduced Schleich prehistoric animal figures are featured in the latest Everything Dinosaur customer newsletter. There are four new dinosaurs – Styracosaurus, Majungasaurus, Amargasaurus and Parasaurolophus, plus Schleich have added a model of the fearsome marine reptile Nothosaurus. All these figures are now in stock, further increasing customer choice when it comes to Everything Dinosaur toys and dinosaur models. Schleich models are extremely popular with young dinosaur fans.

Many factories have had problems with production over the last two years due to the impact of the global pandemic on logistics and manufacturing. It is great news to see five new Schleich prehistoric animals.

The new for 2022 Schleich Styracosaurus dinosaur model features in the February Everything Dinosaur newsletter. This is the first new Styracosaurus to be introduced by Schleich since 2013.

Schleich Styracosaurus

The first new figure to feature in the Everything Dinosaur newsletter is the Styracosaurus, an updated replica of the Styracosaurus figure that was introduced by the German manufacturer nine years ago, but then retired in 2016. The hand-painted Schleich Styracosaurus dinosaur model measures a fraction under twenty centimetres in length and it has been praised by many dinosaur fans and model collectors for its attractive colouration and detailed skin texture.

Schleich Majungasaurus and Schleich Amargasaurus

Schleich may have produced replicas representing Carnotaurus in the past, in addition, they have made many replicas of sauropods too, but this is the first time that an Amargasaurus and a Majungasaurus have been included in the Schleich product portfolio. The Majungasaurus colouration has been commented upon by collectors. It has been suggested that the paint scheme chosen is reminiscent of the artwork for the “Dinosaur King” animated Majungasaurus from the Japanese computer game.

Schleich Parasaurolophus and Schleich Nothosaurus

The other two models to feature in Everything Dinosaur’s newsletter are the Schleich Parasaurolophus and the replica of the Triassic marine reptile Nothosaurus. Schleich have made models representing Parasaurolophus in the past, they have also added replicas of marine reptiles such as Mosasaurus and Plesiosaurus to their model range, but this is the first time that a Nothosaurus figure has been introduced.

Team members at Everything Dinosaur have been busy preparing for the arrival of the new for 2022, 1/35th scale prehistoric elephant model Konobelodon atticus from Eofauna. The model is expected to be in stock in the next few days and a free fact sheet has been prepared in readiness for the model’s arrival.

The K. atticus fact sheet will be included with sales of this prehistoric elephant model from Everything Dinosaur’s website. As part of the plans for the fact sheet, a scale drawing of this Miocene proboscidean was commissioned.

Konobelodon atticus

A gigantic and derived amebelodontid that represents the final evolutionary stage of the European shovel-tusker clade. Konobelodon is characterised by enormous body size, dorso-ventrally flattened mandibular tusks and very large, straight upper tusks. Its proboscidean lineage is ancestral to the true elephants (Elephantidae), including modern, living elephants and their extinct relatives the mammoths.

Originally named in 1857, Konobelodon atticus has had a long and complicated taxonomic history.

A spokesperson from Everything Dinosaur commented:

“We are looking forward to the arrival of the Eofauna Konobelodon model. We are expecting this prehistoric animal model to arrive shortly along with the Eofauna Diplodocus carnegii replica, which is on the same shipment.”

The Everything Dinosaur website: Prehistoric Animal Models.

Originally Named Mastodon atticus

A large, left maxilla (upper jawbone), that was described by the famous German palaeontologist and zoologist Johann Andreas Wagner led to the erection of the species Mastodon atticus, in 1857. Wagner believed that this prehistoric elephant, fossils of which were found in Greece, was closely related to other European fossil elephants that had been studied by the influential French anatomist Georges Cuvier, who first used the term “Mastodon” to describe fossil elephants in 1806.

Eofauna Scientific Research Konobelodon atticus

The stunning Eofauna Konobelodon model measures 23 cm long and stands approximately 11 cm high.

Everything Dinosaur Update (28th February 2022)

Everything Dinosaur heard from Eofauna this morning (February 28th 2022), unfortunately, there has been a delay and the Konobelodon and new Diplodocus carnegii figures will be coming into stock three to four weeks later than anticipated. Eofauna and Everything Dinosaur apologise for this and we can assure customers who have asked to be alerted as soon as these figures arrive, that we will do all we can to expediate matters and once figures are in stock they will receive a priority email alert.

New for 2022 Schleich Prehistoric Animal Models

In early 2022, Everything Dinosaur received five new prehistoric animal models that had been introduced by Schleich, there was a model of the Triassic marine reptile Nothosaurus and four dinosaurs namely Majungasaurus, Styracosaurus, Parasaurolophus and an Amargasaurus. All five of these new Schleich models featured in short YouTube videos, the first to be posted up was the Parasaurolophus model, the last new Schleich figure to be put into the video spotlight was the Amargasaurus model.

A spokesperson from Everything Dinosaur explained that as the company physically stocked the models, storing them in their own warehouse, they could shoot short videos that highlighted the features of the replicas and figures giving potential customers the opportunity to view actual models rather than just relying on the manufacturer’s product images.

Videos Under 45 Seconds in Length

Tests were still being carried out to see how best to upload product showcase videos onto Everything Dinosaur’s website without the loading time of the site being compromised. Videos had been kept to a maximum length of around 45 seconds, permitting viewers to see the figure in plenty of detail. The models are placed on a turntable so that they can be viewed from various angles.

The video showcase highlights features such as the beautifully painted eye on the figure and the wonderful, intricate skin texture. Highlights that could be missed when relying solely on the images provided by Schleich.

Everything Dinosaur to stock the New PNSO Tsintaosaurus

By Mike|2024-10-26T12:47:02+01:00February 19th, 2022|Categories: Adobe CS5, Dinosaur Fans, Everything Dinosaur News and Updates, Everything Dinosaur Products, Main Page, Press Releases|2 Comments

Everything Dinosaur will be stocking the new for 2022 1:35 scale PNSO Xiaoqin the Tsintaosaurus dinosaur model. This fantastic model, complete with display base, a full-colour booklet and posters, part of the PNSO Scientific-Art range of scale models, will be in stock at Everything Dinosaur in a couple of weeks (March 2021).

The Tsintaosaurus model is already on the water and heading for Everything Dinosaur’s warehouse, it being part of a shipment of PNSO figures destined for the UK.

PNSO Xiaoqin the Tsintaosaurus model.

PNSO Xiaoqin the Tsintaosaurus Dinosaur Model

The PNSO Xiaoqin the Tsintaosaurus dinosaur model is a replica of a Chinese hadrosaurid (T. spinorhinus) which was formally named and described in 1958 (Yang Zhongjian often referred to in western literature as Chung Chien Young). A member of the lambeosaurine sub-family, the shape and function of the dinosaur’s crest has been an area of much debate amongst palaeontologists. The design team at PNSO have opted to give their figure a hatchet-shaped crest, reminiscent of the crest of Lambeosaurus, to which Tsintaosaurus was distantly related.

PNSO Tsintaosaurus Model Measurements

The PNSO Xiaoqin the Tsintaosaurus has a declared scale of 1:35. The model measures 21.8 cm in length and the model stands around 9.1 cm high.

Commenting on the imminent introduction of a Tsintaosaurus model a spokesperson from Everything Dinosaur confirmed that they had known about this new for 2022 figure for some time.

The spokesperson explained:

“When arranging shipping we were given the opportunity to add the PNSO Xiaoqin Tsintaosaurus to the container manifest and knowing how good other recently introduced PNSO hadrosaur figures such as Caroline the Corythosaurus and Ivan the Olorotitan were, we jumped at the chance.”

The Schleich Majungasaurus

The stout Majungasaurus model, with its stubby front limbs and deep skull is a welcome addition to the Schleich range of dinosaur models. This is the first time that Schleich have made a replica of the Late Cretaceous abelisaurid from Madagascar, although they have made several models of the related Carnotaurus.

The Schleich Majungasaurus has a prominent horn on the top of its head, an anatomical feature that reflects the fossil record for this theropod, although when first found, the frontal horn was thought to represent the fossilised remains of a pachycephalosaur. The striped colour scheme is certainly striking and this figure has an articulated lower jaw.

Schleich Styracosaurus Dinosaur Model

Our personal favourite of the recent Schleich model releases is the Styracosaurus dinosaur model. Painted in muted shades of green and brown it contrasts with the more vibrant Majungasaurus figure. This is not the first time that Schleich have produced a Styracosaurus figure. There was a Styracosaurus in the original and long-retired “Saurus” series and in 2013, a blue-coloured Styracosaurus was introduced, marking the centenary of the formal naming and scientific description of “spiked lizard”.

A spokesperson from Everything Dinosaur commented that a future blog post would look at these Schleich Styracosaurus models in more detail.

Schleich Nothosaurus Marine Reptile Model

The only non-avian dinosaur model to be added to the Schleich “Dinosaurs” range is a replica of the Triassic marine reptile Nothosaurus. The model measures 22 cm in length. It joins a replica of a Plesiosaurus and a Mosasaurus in the Schleich range.

This is the first time that Schleich has made a Nothosaurus figure and although this genus has an extensive fossil record as well as a global distribution with fossil discoveries in Asia, North Africa, the Middle East as well as Europe, there are very few Nothosaurus models in the portfolios of mainstream model manufacturers.

An Exclusive Schleich Parasaurolophus Video Showcase

The latest product video to be posted up on the Everything Dinosaur YouTube channel features the recently introduced, new for 2022 Schleich Parasaurolophus dinosaur model. This figure is one of five new prehistoric animal figures announced so far by the German model manufacturer. The Parasaurolophus dinosaur model is the first Schleich figure to be given a product showcase video by Everything Dinosaur.

Video credit: Everything Dinosaur

Model Measurements and Did this Dinosaur Live in China?

In the short video (it lasts around 45 seconds), viewers have the opportunity to observe the Parasaurolophus figure on a revolving turntable, model measurements are provided and a caption pops up explaining that this lambeosaurine is known from North America. A second caption follows shortly afterwards that indicates that this hadrosaur may have lived on two continents as very similar fossils to those associated with the Parasaurolophus genus have been found in Heilongjiang Province (China).

The new for 2022 Schleich Parasaurolophus dinosaur model. Although mainly associated with strata laid down during the Campanian faunal stage of the Late Cretaceous of North America, fossils from younger rocks (Maastrichtian stage) in north-eastern China suggest that Parasaurolophus may have lived in Asia and persisted until the very end of the Cretaceous.

The new for 2022 Schleich Parasaurolophus dinosaur model.

Previous Parasaurolophus Models

Schleich has made replicas of Parasaurolophus before. One of the original figures in the long retired Schleich “Saurus” series was a green Parasaurolophus. Another Parasaurolophus figure was introduced by the German manufacturer in 2007.

A spokesperson from Everything Dinosaur commented:

“Our latest product video showcase provides dinosaur fans and model collectors with more information on the recently introduced Schleich Parasaurolophus. Whilst we have to keep these videos short, we try to make them as informative as possible.”

The New PNSO Lu Xiong the Zhuchengtyrannus

By Mike|2024-10-23T07:32:30+01:00February 7th, 2022|Categories: Adobe CS5, Dinosaur Fans, Everything Dinosaur News and Updates, Everything Dinosaur Products, Main Page, Press Releases|0 Comments

PNSO will introduce a model of the fearsome Late Cretaceous Chinese tyrannosaur Zhuchengtyrannus in early spring. The PNSO Lu Xiong the Zhuchengtyrannus will be in stock at Everything Dinosaur in March (2022). Team members were aware of this tyrannosaur model going into production and arranged to delay the loading of their shipping container on the vessel leaving China until the new Zhuchengtyrannus figure was available from the factory.

The PNSO Lu Xiong the Zhuchengtyrannus dinosaur model.

Zhuchengtyrannus magnus

News of the discovery and scientific description of a new taxon of giant tyrannosaur from Asia (eastern China), began to appear in media outlets around the 1st of April 2011. The discovery of a giant, Late Cretaceous predator that may have rivalled Tyrannosaurus rex in size was thought by some to be an April Fool’s joke. A point alluded to in Everything Dinosaur’s blog post announcing the discovery: A New Tyrannosaur Taxon is Described.

The new for 2022 PNSO Zhuchengtyrannus model.

Zhuchengtyrannus Model Measurements

The PNSO Lu Xiong the Zhuchengtyrannus dinosaur model, pronounced “zoo-cheng-tie-ran-us” measures 28.5 cm in length and it stands 11.5 cm high. PNSO have introduced two other tyrannosaurs into their mid-size model range, both were launched in 2021. There is a replica of Tarbosaurus (Chuanzi the Tarbosaurus), which is thought by many palaeontologists to represent a sister taxon to Zhuchengtyrannus (Loewen et al, 2013) and a model of the controversial genus Nanotyrannus (N. lancensis).

Model Size Comparisons

PNSO Lu Xiong the Zhuchengtyrannus (2022) – length 28.5 cm and height 11.5 cm.
The PNSO Chuanzi the Tarbosaurus (2021) – length 31 cm and height 11 cm.
PNSO Logan the Nanotyrannus (2021) – length 17 cm and height 6.5 cm.

Evidence of a Second Large Tyrannosaur from Shandong Province

The fossil material ascribed to Zhuchengtyrannus consists of a left dentary (lower jaw) and a nearly complete right maxilla (bone from the upper jaw). Both were found in a hadrosaur bonebed deposit. Calculating the size of this fearsome theropod has proved difficult, although it has been described as an apex predator.

Intriguingly, other tyrannosaur bones were found in the same bonebed. A lower jaw and a maxilla from suspected other tyrannosaurs (specimen numbers ZCDM V0030 and ZCDM V0032 respectively), were discovered. Both fossils differ from the equivalent material ascribed to Z. magnus and from all known tyrannosaurs. This suggests that at least one other large tyrannosaur was present in the palaeoenvironment.

The PNSO Zhuchengtyrannus model has been equipped with an articulated lower jaw.
