In addition, this beautiful figure is supplied with two heads – mouth closed and roaring, each with interchangeable ears. Also, two sets of paws (clawed and retracted claws), along with two neck fur options, (short or long).

Sue from Everything Dinosaur commented:

“This is a stunning Smilodon.  The details are amazing.  In addition, with so many points of articulation the model can be posed in a variety of ways.  Perhaps some of our customers will send in photographs, we would really like to see them.”

The Cyberzoic S. populator’s extensive articulation permits this figure to be put into some dynamic and extremely dramatic poses.

Dramatic Poses

Smilodon populator is the largest species of Smilodon known. Indeed, it is amongst the largest of all the Felidae members. A shoulder height of 1.2 metres has been reported with weight estimates of more than four hundred kilogrammes. This species roamed South America during the Pleistocene Epoch. However, isolated populations could have survived into the Holocene. It is known from Bolivia, Venezuela, Brazil, Uruguay, Chile, Ecuador, Peru and also Argentina.

Our thanks to the manufacturer for sending to us these additional images of the Cyberzoic Smilodon populator tan model.

New Cyberzoic Articulated Models in Stock

By |2025-03-12T21:21:20+00:00March 12th, 2025|Beasts of the Mesozoic Models|0 Comments

Four, new Cyberzoic articulated models are now in stock at Everything Dinosaur. The Smilodon populator, two dinosaurs and the Arctic dragon have arrived.  These four models represent wave one of the new Cyberzoic range.  The Cyberzoic range is produced by the same company that introduced the Beasts of the Mesozoic figures.

Mike from Everything Dinosaur stated that he was delighted to have received these amazing articulated figures. Team members were busy contacting customers who had asked for a figure to be reserved.

Wave 1 of the Cyberzoic Articulated Models

The first four Cyberzoic figures are:

  • The Achillobator giganticus (brown colouration) the 1/18th scale model of a large dromaeosaurid.
  • Allosaurus jimmadseni an articulated model of an Allosaurus species formally named and described in 2020*
  • A 1/12 replica of a Smilodon populator in a tan colour scheme.
  • The first fantasy figure, an Arctic dragon named Kuraokami.  Kuraokami is a legendary Japanese dragon and Shinto deity of rain and snow.

* The blog post from Everything Dinosaur about the formal description of A. jimmadseniA New Species of Allosaurus is Described.

These are exciting and beautiful figures.  Moreover, more Cyberzoic figures are planned.  In addition to the animal models, the range will also include human figures too. Intriguingly, some of the dinosaur models can be “customised” with body armour.

Mike from Everything Dinosaur promised that all the customers who had requested further details or a figure reserving would be contacted quickly.  These figures are eagerly anticipated by collectors.  Furthermore, the models are supplied with collector cards and the package artwork is stunning.

The New Rebor Beelzebufo Figures – Which do you Prefer?

By |2025-03-09T07:29:28+00:00March 9th, 2025|Rebor Models and Figures|0 Comments

Let’s take a closer look at the two new for 2025 Rebor Beelzebufo figures. Which one do you prefer?  There are two different versions of the Late Cretaceous prehistoric frog Beelzebufo from Rebor.  Each figure has amazing detail, and they are poseable.

Rebor Beelzebufo GooGooDoll shown in anterior view,

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

These two amazing prehistoric frog replicas in 1:2 scale are due into stock at Everything Dinosaur possibly around June (2025).

To view the range of Rebor figures in stock at Everything Dinosaur: Rebor Figures and Models.

Which Rebor Beelzebufo is the Most Scientifically Accurate?

We have received a number of questions about these two frog figures.  Collectors have asked us to confirm the model’s measurements.  The figures are slightly different sizes.

  •  Rebor 1:2 scale poseable Beelzebufo ampinga “GooGooDoll” Swamp Version measurements – length 13.5 cm, width 15 cm and height 7.5 cm.  With fully stretched limbs the figure measures around 26 cm in length.
  • Rebor 1:2 scale poseable Beelzebufo cornuta “Little Feet” Rainforest Version measurements – length 13.5 cm, width 15 cm and height 9.5 cm (hornlets).  With fully stretched limbs the figure measures around 26 cm in length.
Rebor Beelzebufo 1:2 scale model (Little Feet).

An anterior view of the new Rebor Beelzebufo 1:2 scale model (Little Feet). The known fossil material indicates that this Late Cretaceous frog had a blunt snout and a large, wide mouth.

As for which figure is the most scientifically accurate?  It is hard to say.  The taxonomy of this taxon remains disputed.  With two different and contrasting figures, Rebor have attempted to cover several bases. A case could be made for each figure being scientifically accurate.

When this huge, prehistoric frog was first described back in 2008 (Evans, Jones and Krause), it was thought that the jawbones indicating a huge mouth and a blunt head resembled frogs found today in South America – specifically the Ceratophyrinae (Sera-toe-fie-rin-aye). Several living members of this frog family possess horned eyelids.  This is why the “Little Feet” version has this feature.  However, not all members of the Ceratophyrinae have hornlets. However, the paint scheme chosen for the horned “Little Feet” version is a very close match to the original illustration that was provided with the 2008 paper.

See our blog post from 2008 which shows this illustration: Beelzebufo – The Frog from Hell.

Changing Views About the Taxonomy of Beelzebufo ampinga

Only one species in the Beelzebufo genus is currently recognised – B. ampinga.  Rebor has decided to give one of their figures a different species name.  The “Little Feet” version has been named Beelzebufo cornuta.

Scientists have recently challenged the taxonomy of Beelzebufo. Some researchers have suggested that Beelzebufo might be more closely related to the Pelodryadinae (Pel-oh-dry-ah-din-aye). These frogs lack hornlets. They are large, wide-mouthed frogs known from Australia and New Guinea (mainly). Many members of this family of frogs have adaptations for climbing, but no one has suggested that Beelzebufo was arboreal (as far as we know).

Since at this time, there is no real clarity regarding Beelzebufo taxonomy – just go with the Rebor figure you like the best.

The Beautiful PNSO Lokiceratops Model is Now in Stock

By |2025-03-05T20:49:03+00:00March 5th, 2025|PNSO Age of Dinosaurs Models|0 Comments

The beautiful PNSO Lokiceratops dinosaur model is now in stock at Everything Dinosaur. Team members have been busy unpacking the figures in the warehouse.  This is the first, new PNSO model to arrive at Everything Dinosaur this year (2025).

The New for 2025 PNSO Lokiceratops

The centrosaurine was formally named and described in 2024 (Loewen et al). The fossil material comes from Judith River Formation (Campanian) exposures in northern Montana.

To read Everything Dinosaur’s blog post about the discovery of Lokiceratops: Lokiceratops a New Horned Dinosaur from Montana.

The large number of similar horned dinosaur taxa identified from this part of North America suggests that dinosaur diversity has been underestimated. Moreover, there is considerable evidence to indicate centrosaurines were living and evolving in a small geographic area (high endemism). This high endemism identified in the Centrosaurinae subfamily contrasts with the extensive (historic) ranges seen in most large extant mammals.

In total, five ceratopsians have been described from this small area of northern Montana.  To date, four centrosaurines and one chasmosaurine have been described:

  • Wendiceratops pinhornensis.
  • Albertaceratops nesmoi.
  • Medusaceratops lokii.
  • Lokiceratops rangiformis.
  • Judiceratops tigris (the chasmosaurine).

Mike from Everything Dinosaur welcomed the new PNSO figure and commented.

“Congratulations to PNSO for making a model of a horned dinosaur that has only recently been scientifically described.”

PNSO Judith the Spiclypeus

The PNSO Judith the Spiclypeus model measures 17 cm in length. It is supplied with a full-colour, sixty-four-page booklet and an A3-sized colour poster.  It is a beautiful horned dinosaur figure. The holotype (CMN 57081) was collected from the lower Coal Ridge Member of the Judith River Formation. These sediments were laid down in a swampy environment. It is fitting to see PNSO depict their Spiclypeus figure in a swamp.

Beautiful Haolonggood Utahceratops Figures

By |2025-02-26T13:47:26+00:00February 19th, 2025|Haolonggood Prehistoric Animal Models|0 Comments

Everything Dinosaur is expecting the two new Haolonggood Utahceratops figures to arrive next month (March 2025).  They are in the same shipment as the two new Haolonggood Styracosaurus models. In addition, the Brachiosaurus, Majungasaurus and the Concavenator models are also expected.  A spokesperson from Everything Dinosaur confirmed that as soon as the dinosaur models had been checked into stock, customers on waitlists will be emailed.

He added:

“We are looking forward to receiving this shipment, especially the ceratopsians.  Haolonggood have added several horned dinosaurs to their model range.  These figures have proved to be extremely popular with collectors.  We even have had academics and palaeontologists asking after them.”

The Haolonggood Utahceratops Figures

There are two colour variants.  Firstly, the brown Utahceratops known as Gong Wang.  The other Utahceratops has a green colouration.  It has been named Ding De Sun.  Both models measure seventeen centimetres long and have a frill height of ten centimetres. Moreover, they have a declared scale of 1:35.

Utahceratops (U. gettyi) fossils come from the Kaiparowits Formation (Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, Utah). It is regarded as a basal member of the Chasmosaurinae subfamily of the Ceratopsidae. Utahceratops was formally named and described in 2010 (Sampson et al).

The genus names honours the state of Utah. The species name is a tribute to the late Mike Getty who discovered the holotype UMNH VP 16784. Mike also made a significant contribution to the plotting of the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument and the excavation of the relatively abundant vertebrate fossils associated with this area.

Two new for 2025 Haolonggood Utahceratops models are coming into stock at Everything Dinosaur.

Beautiful Markings

The two new Utahceratops figures have been beautifully painted.  The large neck frills show amazing detail.  The design team at Haolonggood are to be congratulated for their attention to detail and for the flamboyant markings on the neck frills.

The spokesperson from Everything Dinosaur continued:

“The frills are particularly impressive.  They are covered in a variety of different sized scales.  The intricate paint scheme gives each figure two large blue spots on the frill.  The two Utahceratops figures with their colourful frills and flashes of blue remind me of the eyespots seen on peacock tail feathers.”

Photographing the New CollectA Deluxe Jaekelopterus Figure

By |2025-02-16T18:36:32+00:00February 16th, 2025|CollectA Deluxe Prehistoric Animal Models|3 Comments

Team members at Everything Dinosaur have been photographing the new for 2025 CollectA Deluxe Jaekelopterus figure.  This is a replica of the eurypterid Jaekelopterus rhenaniae, one of the largest arthropods to have ever existed.  Jaekelopterus rhenaniae is known from several fossil specimens.  Its immense size is based on a partial claw (chelicera). Based on this single fossil, J. rhenaniae has been estimated to have reached a size of around 2.3–2.6 metres in length.

Model collectors and fans of the Palaeozoic have been after a sea scorpion model for a while.  This new CollectA Deluxe figure does not disappoint.

The CollectA Deluxe Jaekelopterus Model

This beautiful and very detailed model is in approximately 1:20 scale.  It has caught a jawless fish.  Jaekelopterus was an active hunter, and it very likely fed on vertebrates such as pteraspidids that shared its brackish and freshwater habitat.

The underside of the figure shows fantastic detail too.  The beautiful paddles have been carefully sculpted.  In addition, the reproductive organ can be seen.  Furthermore, two of the body segments close to the head have been elevated. These elevations indicate the presence of book lungs. Most sea scorpion fossils are squashed flat.  To recreate such an amazing amount of detail is a considerable achievement.
