A Video Review of the Papo Young Apatosaurus Dinosaur Model

The Young Apatosaurus dinosaur model is proving to be very popular amongst dinosaur fans and model collectors. We have produced a brief video review of this new for 2015 Papo replica. In this video review we look at the model in more detail and explain about the body proportions as they are shown in this particular dinosaur sculpt.

Video Review

The video is just over eight minutes in length (8:08), we look at the skin texture in more detail, explain about the size of the head as it relates to the rest of the body and we discuss that very thick neck. The design team at Papo have certainly done an excellent job, on what is the company’s second sauropod after the enormous Brachiosaurus replica was introduced a couple of years ago.

This dinosaur was formerly known as Brontosaurus (Thunder Lizard), a great name for one of the larger and heavier diplodocids.

For explanation as to why this dinosaur had to have its name changed: Why Brontosaurus is No More.

Everything Dinosaur wrote a short article, a while back now, about the name change to Apatosaurus and the reasons for it, this is the article we refer to in our Papo Young Apatosaurus video review.

From the nostrils located on the top of its head (correct according to most palaeontologists), to the supersonic, cracking whip-like tail, this is a super dinosaur replica. Well done Papo!

Note

Following a taxonomic review of the Diplodocidae by scientists and academics the genus Brontosaurus has been resurrected and Brontosaurus excelsus is regarded as the type species.

The scientific paper: “A specimen-level phylogenetic analysis and taxonomic revision of Diplodocidae (Dinosauria, Sauropoda)” by Emanuel Tschopp, Octávio Mateus and Roger B. J. Benson published in the on-line, peer reviewed journal PeerJ.

Schleich Anhanguera Pterosaur – Video Review

With all the new models and replicas due out this year, Everything Dinosaur team members are having a job finding the time to review them all. However, after several requests, we have got round to shooting a quick video review of the new for 2015 Schleich Anhanguera replica. What a beautiful model of a flying reptile this is! The detail around the eyes is simply amazing and although the wing shape and stance of this replica is not quite how we imagined, this does nothing to detract from what is a very colourful and well made pterosaur model.

Schleich Anhanguera Model

Over the last three years or so Schleich have revamped their prehistoric animal model range, opting to change the sizes of their models and introducing a number of very colourful and bright prehistoric animals. The sky blue tones of the Anhanguera replica certainly make this flying reptile model stand out from the crowd.

To view the range of Schleich prehistoric animals available from Everything Dinosaur: Schleich World of History Models and Figures.

In this video, which is six minutes and thirty-five seconds long, we talk about where in the world Anhanguera fossils have been found and then we describe the model in detail. Schleich has made a model of Anhanguera before, a smaller replica once formed part of the company’s not-to-scale “dinosaurs” range.

This model was retired a number of years ago.

A Mini Quetzalcoatlus Figure

This is not the only pterosaur figure introduced by Schleich this year. In the popular, mini dinosaurs range, a flying reptile replica was included, this time a model of a giant pterosaur, distantly related to Anhanguera, the Late Cretaceous behemoth known as Quetzalcoatlus. It too is a very colourful replica.

Matthew the Dinosaur King – Unboxing Video

At Everything Dinosaur we get the chance to view all the amazing pictures and videos sent into us or posted up on line by our customers. We are really impressed by all the hard work involved, for example, we noticed that Matthew, a keen fan of prehistoric animal models had posted up a video of him unboxing the new Safari Ltd models and two of the new for 2015 replicas from Schleich. In this short, (5 minute) video, Matthew unpacks the Carnegie Collectibles Velociraptor along with the four new Wild Safari Dinos prehistoric animals – Nasutoceratops, Sauropelta, Archaeopteryx and the amazing Yutyrannus. We were really impressed with the comments Matthew makes about these new dinosaur models.

New Prehistoric Animal Models

In addition, to the new Safari Ltd models, Matthew discusses the first of the new for 2015 Schleich World of History replicas, namely the beautiful Kentrosaurus and the colourful Anhanguera pterosaur, complete with articulated lower jaw. We know just how eager model collectors are when it comes to getting their hands on new prehistoric animal models, over the next few weeks or so our warehouse is going to be very busy with all the new stock deliveries. We are excited too.

A Pleasure to See Unboxing Videos

A spokesperson from the UK based company commented:

“It is always a pleasure to view unboxing videos and to hear from our customers in general. We know how keenly model collectors anticipate new additions to ranges, so we work as hard as we can to get them into stock as quickly as possible.”

Everything Dinosaur Unboxing Video

Our congratulations to Matthew and we look forward to viewing his individual model reviews (as hinted in the video). One thing for sure, viewers can see how well packaged our parcels are, lots of bubble wrap on show and a strong box for sending out the items. We have been busy on a number of other projects this week, including sorting out the new Schleich replicas and models that are due out in the summer of 2015, we think that Matthew will probably want to make another unboxing video when the second batch of Schleich replicas become available later this year.

We know that Matthew and many of our other customers around the world have posted up videos and reviews, we do try and catch up with them all, give a “like”, provide a positive comment, give a Google thumbs up and so on. Everything Dinosaur is always delighted to see such reviews and videos posted up by our customers.

Well done Matthew.

Papo Young Apatosaurus and the Papo Tupuxuara Models – Papo Prehistoric Animal Models

Everything Dinosaur team members have created a short video that highlights new for 2015, Papo prehistoric animal models.

Here is a quick video that showcases two of the new for 2015 prehistoric animal models from Papo. The video features the Young Apatosaurus replica, (dimensions confirmed as being 37 cm long, 13 cm high) and the excellent pterosaur figure – a Tupuxuara. In this short, (43 second video), we also compare these two models to the enormous Papo Brachiosaurus dinosaur model that was introduced in the autumn of 2012. The Tupuxuara pterosaur may be small but it is beautifully painted and the crest detail is superb.

The Papo Brachiosaurus measures a whopping 40 cm in length, the head is some 32 cm high. We used this model to provide a scale to compare the two new additions to the Papo range. The Young Apatosaurus, in our view, represents a sub-adult, think of this replica as representing a teenage dinosaur.

Both the Papo Tupuxuara and the Papo Young Apatosaurus models are expected to be in stock at Everything Dinosaur early March, although they could arrive a little earlier. Check out this web log and Everything Dinosaur’s social media pages for updates.

New from Schleich for 2015 (Video Preview) – Schleich Anhanguera and the Schleich Kentrosaurus

We have created a short video preview of the Schleich Anhanguera and the Schleich Kentrosaurus models.

As team members from Everything Dinosaur eagerly await the arrival of the first batch of new prehistoric animal products from Schleich, we took time out to shoot a quick video preview of the new Anhanguera and Kentrosaurus models. These two replicas, part of the World of History model range will be part of the first set of new replicas to be released by Schleich this year. We are expecting to have stocks by February, possibly even earlier. Both models are beautifully painted and the pterosaur has an articulated lower jaw.

Significant Company Investment

Schleich have invested heavily in the development of their dinosaur model range. The company sees these new additions as part of a three-cornered strategy to continue to grow the Schleich brand in 2015, Schleich refer to this strategy as the 3-Ds (one of the Ds stands for dinosaurs). Just for the record, the other two Ds stand for dragons (big increase in fantasy dragon figures in 2015) and for D.C. Comics (Schleich will be marketing a set of figures inspired by characters created by the comic strip company (Justice League). Two further dinosaur models, a Giganotosaurus and a Spinosaurus will be added to the World of History model range in July.

New for 2015 Safari Ltd Prehistoric Animal Models

Team members at Everything Dinosaur announced sometime ago the new additions to the Carnegie Collection and Wild Safari Dinos model ranges (Safari Ltd). We are looking forward to stocking these models and can’t decide between us which one we like the best. As we look forward to 2015, we have taken time out to produce a very quick teaser video which features the five new models from Safari Ltd which will be available from Everything Dinosaur next year. After all, if a teaser trailer can be made for “Jurassic World”, then why not one for these exciting prehistoric animal replicas.

In this short video (under forty seconds in duration), we show pictures of the five new figures, the Archaeopteryx, the horned dinosaur Nasutoceratops, Sauropelta and the feathered tyrannosaurid Yutyrannus huali. We also showcase the only scale model to be added next year, the 1:50 scale (approximate) replica of Velociraptor (V. mongoliensis). No doubt we will comment more on the potential scales (as in scale size, not to be confused with feathers) when we create individual reviews of these prehistoric animals.

To read a little more about these new introductions: Safari Ltd announce new models for 2015.

Our dedicated team members will be researching and writing fact sheets to accompany these new animal models. For every named prehistoric animal replica Everything Dinosaur supplies, a fact sheet all about that creature, is included. Scale drawings of all these animals have now been completed and the fact sheets themselves will be completed shortly.

Looks like 2015 is going to be an exciting time for dinosaur model and figure collectors.

Everything Dinosaur Stocks New Rebor Dinosaur Replicas

By Mike|2024-05-04T14:02:50+01:00November 23rd, 2014|Categories: Dinosaur Fans, Everything Dinosaur News and Updates, Everything Dinosaur Products, Everything Dinosaur videos, Main Page, Photos of Everything Dinosaur Products|0 Comments

Rebor 1:35 scale Yutyrannus huali available from Everything Dinosaur

Everything Dinosaur stocks Rebor dinosaur replicas. Rebor have released a 1:35 scale model of a tyrannosauroid whose fossils come from northern China (Yutyrannus huali). This is the first in this exciting new range and team members are keen to see how the Rebor range of dinosaur and prehistoric animal models develops.

A beautiful model of a Chinese tyrannosaur.

Rebor Dinosaur Replicas

The model has been nicknamed Y-REX a reference to the most famous tyrannosaur of all, Tyrannosaurus rex, although in terms of geochronological time, Y. huali (the name means beautiful feathered tyrant), lived at least fifty-five million years before T. rex evolved. In fact, in terms of when this dinosaur roamed, it is much closer to the likes of Allosaurus and the Chinese allosauroid Sinraptor which lived during the Late Jurassic than it is to the Late Cretaceous Tyrannosaurus rex.

One thing Yutyrannus has in common with the mighty T. rex is that it too, was probably an apex predator. At around nine metres in length and weighing as much as a Volkswagen Golf, this dinosaur, which was formally named and described in 2012, proved that in some parts of the world at least, tyrannosauroids were the dominant predators relatively early on in their evolutionary history.

It certainly is a splendid model and Everything Dinosaur will post up a review of this replica very shortly. In the meantime, here is a short (5.47), video we put together in our board room, which provides a little more information about this intriguing and highly collectible piece.

The first of the models in the Rebor series, the Yutyrannus (Yutyrannus huali) is going to be in stock at Everything Dinosaur very shortly. A few weeks ago, we made a quick video in our boardroom which introduces the Rebor range and looks at the Yutyrannus replica in detail.

We comment on the integument that can be seen on the replica and explain a little about what is currently known about this particular feathered Chinese tyrannnosaur. Team members are finalising a fact sheet on this dinosaur, it is our intention to include this fact sheet with this new model, thus helping to provide collectors and dinosaur fans with a little additional information about this dinosaur, that was only formally named and described in 2012.

Everything Dinosaur Video Review – CollectA Bistahieversor

A Video Review of the CollectA Bistahieversor Dinosaur Model

Team members have been so busy preparing for new models as 2015 approaches that we have still got a couple of reviews of the 2014 releases to complete. This is going to be rectified this month and the first of our last video reviews of new 2014 releases is a short video which features the rather wonderful CollectA Bistahieversor dinosaur model.

CollectA Bistahieversor Model (Video Review)

In the video (six minutes, forty-one seconds long), we discuss the significance of this New Mexico tyrannosaurid in terms of the provinciality of North American dinosaurs. We look at the model and reflect on how this replica is based on the known fossil material. We think this is our first feathered tyrannosaur model video review, however, we suspect that it is not going to be our last. Expect more feathered tyrannosaurids next year.
