Attaching the Tail Piece

Some model assembly is required. The tail piece has to be inserted into the crocodilian body, but team members at Everything Dinosaur found this task quite easy, and the tail piece was able to be slotted home without any problems.

The Deinosuchus replicas have articulated jaws, flexible tail tips that permit the tail to be posed to some extent and each figure comes with an Appalachiosaurus carcase accessory. The Appalachiosaurus carcase model can be seen in the image (above), it is located just above the snout of the Deinosuchus.

Rebor Adult Deinosuchus Models

Prehistoric crocodile models are popular with collectors and Everything Dinosaur team members have spent a large part of Friday and this weekend (February 2023), contacting all those Rebor model fans who wanted to know when the pair of Deinosuchus figures were in stock.

Rebor Adult Deinosuchus Swamp Colour Variant

The Rebor adult Deinosuchus swamp colour variant has more green blended into the model, whereas the estuary figure has more grey. Both figures are beautifully painted and extremely detailed. Each figure has been applied with gloss to give the model a wet and shiny appearance, as if this giant crocodilian has just left the water.

Smilodon populator

Smilodon populator is the largest species described to date within the Smilodon genus. Fossils indicate that S. populator had a shoulder height of around 1.2 metres. The design team at CollectA have given their jungle colour variant a declared scale of 1:11.

The model is supplied with two interchangeable heads. This permits model collectors to display their Smilodon with its mouth closed, or with its mouth open.

Rebor Smilodon populator Jungle

The Smilodon replica measures just under twenty-seven centimetres in length and customers of Everything Dinosaur will also receive a Smilodon fact sheet with sales of this Rebor figure.

A spokesperson from Everything Dinosaur commented, that team members had been busy contacting customers who had wanted to be notified when this prehistoric mammal model arrived.

The spokesperson added:

“The Rebor Smilodon populator jungle colour variant has a coat similar to that of an extant jaguar or leopard. Whilst the coat of Smilodon populator is unknown, the patterns on the coat would have helped to camouflage this large animal and to break-up its outline as it stalked prey.”

A baby Torosaurus model is going to be reunited with the adult Torosaurus in a model set thanks to efforts from Everything Dinosaur. A customer had recently purchased the PNSO Torosaurus model set (Aubrey and Dabei), but unfortunately, the baby Torosaurus figure (Dabei) was missing from the set.

Having been alerted to the problem, team members at Everything Dinosaur set about finding a baby Torosaurus model and despatching this figure to their American customer.

A Busy Period for PNSO Model Sales

Usually, this oversight at the factory would be easily corrected, team members could simply despatch a baby Torosaurus model from their own warehouse. However, due to an extremely busy Christmas period for PNSO model sales, the PNSO Torosaurus Aubrey and Dabei set had sold out.

A shipment of PNSO models due to arrive shortly at Everything Dinosaur did contain more Torosaurus model sets, but team members decided to try and resolve this problem for the customer as quickly as they could.

With PNSO’s collaboration, a Dabei Torosaurus model was sourced from the next scheduled factory production run and rushed over to the UK.

Baby Torosaurus Model

A cyber incident at Royal Mail had temporarily suspended all Royal Mail international mail being sent out to the USA from the UK. The announcement of a resolution to the problem coincided with the arrival of the baby Torosaurus model at Everything Dinosaur’s offices. Team members were able to contact the customer and arrange to despatch the parcel containing the dinosaur model.

A spokesperson from Everything Dinosaur thanked the customer for their patience and commented:

“We had not come across this problem before, and with no more PNSO Torosaurus sets in our warehouse we had to wait until the next factory production run before a baby Torosaurus figure could be rushed over to the UK. Our thanks to our chums at PNSO for helping with this, the baby dinosaur will soon be reunited with its mother.”

The new Wild Safari Prehistoric World Zuul dinosaur model is in stock at Everything Dinosaur. Team members have been busy contacting customers to let them know that this new armoured dinosaur model has arrived.

Zuul Dinosaur Model

The Zuul dinosaur model is one of four new figures to come into Everything Dinosaur from the Safari Ltd range. The other three models are the Wild Safari Prehistoric World Albertosaurus, and in the sub-brand “Dino Dana” a Stygimoloch and a replica of the controversial dwarf tyrannosaur Nanotyrannus.

The Gatekeeper of Gozer

The genus name was inspired by a monster that appeared in the 1984 film “Ghostbusters”, the horned monster being Zuul the Gatekeeper of Gozer. The species epithet combines crus (Latin) for shin or shank, and vastator (Latin) for destroyer, in reference to the beautiful sledgehammer-like tail club that was the first part of the fossil specimen to be discovered.
