So, the news about the introduction of the Haolonggood Argentinosaurus models has broken.  These are amazing figures, and they are big and when we say big, we really mean huge.  Each model measures around eight-five centimetres in length.  The head height is fifty centimetres.  In imperial measurements, these enormous models are over thirty-three inches long with a head height of nearly twenty inches.  These most certainly are impressive replicas of Argentinosaurus huinculensis!

Haolonggood sent us an image of their current sauropod models.  We added the annotation so, you can see how big the Argentinosaurus model is.

Mike from Everything Dinosaur commented:

“These models are stunning!  However, they are extremely large, collectors will have to make quite a bit of space on their shelves to accommodate one of these sauropod figures.”

The box dimensions are approximately 98 x 44 x 21 cm. We estimate shipping weight will be about 9 kilos. However, the volumetric weight prices charged by the shipping/delivery companies are going to make shipping expensive.  Our advice is to be careful when buying direct from China. Shipping costs are likely to be high and cartons of this size may attract additional duties and taxes.

Good news for UK customers is that shipping would be £7.99 GBP (we think).  As for our global customers, we can send this model out to collectors around the world including the USA and Europe.  Customers in Europe can relax, our parcels are sent out delivery duty paid and there will be no extra VAT due.

Everything Dinosaur team members are expecting to hear news of their latest shipment of Haolonggood dinosaur models.  The vessel carrying our shipment should be docking at the port this week.  We should be getting these exciting new figures delivered to our warehouse in about seven days or so.  Perhaps they will arrive sooner.  The shipment contains several new Haolonggood scale models including the Haolonggood Camarasaurus models.

Mike from Everything Dinosaur commented:

“Sue and I are looking forward to the arrival of these two new Camarasaurus replicas.  In total, we have ten new Haolonggood figures arriving.  In addition, we will be stocking their popular Spinosaurus models for the first time.”

The Camarasaurus Genus

Fossils of this sauropod are known from the Morrison Formation of the western United States. An enormous amount of Camarasaurus fossil material has been found. It is regarded as the most abundant sauropod known to date from the Morrison.  Its fossils are associated with a number of Morrison Formation members.

The Camarasaurus genus currently contains four valid species. Camarasaurus lentus, Camarasaurus grandis, Camarasaurus lewisi and the type species Camarasaurus supremus. The largest species and geologically the youngest is C. supremus. Palaeontologists have estimated that this plant-eating dinosaur measured over twenty metres in length. The fossils of Camarasaurus supremus are associated with the youngest member of the Morrison Formation – the Brushy Basin Member.

It was named and scientifically described by the American palaeontologist Edward Drinker Cope (1877). The scientific description of the Camarasaurus genus occurred at the height of the infamous “bone wars” between Cope and his bitter rival Othniel Charles Marsh.

Customers who purchase the Haolonggood Camarasaurus models will be sent a free Everything Dinosaur Camarasaurus fact sheet.

A pair of new Haolonggood Triceratops models have been announced. These horned dinosaur figures will be in stock at Everything Dinosaur shortly.  The new ceratopsians are part of a growing range of Haolonggood ornithischian dinosaurs.  For example, Everything Dinosaur already stocks several Haolonggood chasmosaurine replicas including Kosmoceratops and the beautiful Chasmosaurus figures.

Haolonggood Triceratops Models

Two colour variants will be available.  Haolonggood will be introducing a green variant and a second figure, which is the same sculpt but in a predominantly grey colour scheme.  Both models will measure around twenty-three centimetres in length.  Those magnificent head shields will be around six centimetres off the ground.  Like most of the other Haolonggood prehistoric animal figures in stock, these models will be in 1/35th scale.

Haolonggood will be adding a pair of Triceratops figures to the model range.

Mike, from the UK-based mail order company commented:

“These are two splendid models of horned dinosaurs. They look extremely detailed, and we can’t wait to bring them into stock.”

The Haolonggood Ceratopsian Figures

Haolonggood have introduced several different horned dinosaur figures.  They represent both chasmosaurines and members of the other subfamily of the Ceratopsia, the Centrosaurinae.

The Haolonggood horned dinosaur range includes:

• Chasmosaurus (Zou Run and Zou Yuan).
• Kosmoceratops (Cai Fu and Cai Qing).
• Pentaceratops (Li Kui and Liou Tang).

These figures represent chasmosaurines.

The centrosaurines in the Haolonggood range currently include:

• Sinoceratops (Lei Heng and Zhu Tong).
• Nasutoceratops (Hua Rong and Van Qing).
• Pachyrhinosaurus (Lv Fang and Guo Sheng)

Other horned dinosaurs are also expected to join the Haolonggood range such as Styracosaurus and Einiosaurus.

Mike from Everything Dinosaur added:

“It is wonderful to see more models of plant-eating dinosaurs introduced by Haolonggood.”
