Papo the French manufacturer of replicas and figures is going to reintroduce two retired prehistoric animal models into their “Les Dinosaures” range in 2023. The Papo Woolly Rhino and the Papo Archaeopteryx figures will be available from Everything Dinosaur early next year.
Papo intend to reintroduce two recently retired models in quarter 1 of 2023 – the Papo Woolly Rhinoceros figure and the Papo Archaeopteryx model.
Papo Prehistoric Animal Models
The Papo Archaeopteryx figure was first added to the Papo range in 2014 before going out of production and being retired in 2019.

The Papo Woolly Rhinoceros model was introduced a year earlier than the Archaeopteryx (2013). It was retired a few years later. When it was first introduced the Papo Woolly Rhino figure was highly praised and Everything Dinosaur team members wrote about the shape of the horn.
Everything Dinosaur team members have taken time out of their busy schedule to take some photographs of the spectacular Heavy Lance Triceratops model from Nanmu Studio. This beautiful, 1/35th scale, horned dinosaur replica is one of several ornithischian dinosaur models in the Nanmu Studio Jurassic Series available from Everything Dinosaur.

Heavy Lance Triceratops Model
The Nanmu Studio Jurassic Series Heavy Lance Tricolor figure is a fantastic Triceratops dinosaur model in 1:35 scale. The Triceratops model is supplied with an Everything Dinosaur Triceratops fact sheet which has been researched and written by Everything Dinosaur team members.

Triceratops Model Measurements
This stunning replica of perhaps, the most famous horned dinosaur of all, was introduced as part of a trio of Triceratops collectables. The model measures 29 cm in length and that beautifully painted ceratopsian frill is approximately 13.5 cm off the ground.

A spokesperson from Everything Dinosaur commented:
“Triceratops regularly features in the top three of our survey looking at the most popular prehistoric animals. We congratulate the design team at Nanmu Studio for their superb horned dinosaur figures. It still amazes us that with our current stock of Triceratops models, we can offer customers more Nanmu Studio Triceratops model variants than the actual number of currently valid species of this iconic Late Cretaceous dinosaur.”

Everything Dinosaur has taken delivery of a few of the special, limited-edition Nanmu Studio Dragon Soul Spinosaurus 2.0 (Deterrence Statue) figures. These superb theropods are supplied with their own custom display base and they have already caused quite a stir amongst spinosaurid model fans and figure collectors.

A Very Special Spinosaurus
Team members have ensured that customers who requested more information about this figure have been emailed and the few that we have left have gone on general sale in the Nanmu Studio dinosaur and prehistoric animal models section of the company’s award-winning website.

Dragon Soul Spinosaurus 2.0
The Dragon Soul figure is termed Spinosaurus 2.0 as this is the second set of Spinosaurus figures to be introduced by Nanmu Studio, the earlier Supplanter Spinosaurus including the limited-edition replica are now out of production and we believe these figures have been officially retired.

The Polystone Display Base
The exquisite polystone display base for this 1:35 scale Spinosaurus figure has footprint markers to help collectors to position their model correctly and the base depicts a partially buried Tyrannosaurus skeleton, reflecting an iconic scene in the history of CGI cinema when a T. rex and a Spinosaurus battled in the film “Jurassic Park III”.
A spokesperson from Everything Dinosaur praised Nanmu Studio and stated that this beautiful, limited-edition figure would very soon sell out. The spokesperson congratulated all those collectors who had been able to pick up this Spinosaurus scale replica.
The superb Nanmu Studio Parasaurolophus corpse, a fantastic replica of the mauled carcase of a duck-billed dinosaur is in stock at Everything Dinosaur. The special edition figure, which has a limited production run, is entitled Nanmu Studio Dragon Soul Parasaurolophus (Nutcracker Soldier).

Dragon Soul Parasaurolophus (Nutcracker Soldier)
This amazing, detailed polystone figure shows the remains of a large Parasaurolophus, which apparently had been brought down and partially consumed by a large predator, most probably a tyrannosaur.
The figure, which is believed to have an extremely limited production run, is the third model in a trio of Parasaurolophus figures introduced by Nanmu Studio this year (2022) – the “Nutcracker” series.

Nanmu Studio Parasaurolophus Corpse
The Nanmu Studio Parasaurolophus corpse is a fantastic, polystone replica of a dead Parasaurolophus in approximately 1:35 scale.
A spokesperson from Everything Dinosaur commented:
“This is a fascinating model, one in the “Dragon Soul” series of limited-edition replicas. We think it is the first carcase model that Nanmu Studio have introduced, and it is a stunning piece, one that would be right at home in a serious model collector’s collection.”

Nanmu Studio Models
The figures and replica range produced by Nanmu Studio has grown in size and sophistication. The company plans to add further models to its inventory, but as far as Everything Dinosaur are aware, the Dragon Soul (Nutcracker Soldier) is the only scale model of a corpse made to date in this series and there are no current plans to add any other carcase replicas.

Amazing Prehistoric Animal Models
The PNSO Age of Dinosaurs product range has dramatically expanded over the last few years, with the addition of lots of new, amazing prehistoric animal models. For example, Everything Dinosaur recently received into stock the new for 2022 Jacques the Deinocheirus model along with the new PNSO Sinopliosaurus replica.

Everything Dinosaur are passionate about dinosaurs and prehistoric animal models. The award-winning, UK-based company exports to over a hundred countries and recently they were interviewed about their export success as part of a project to help inspire others to follow their dreams.
Cheshire and Warrington Growth Hub wanted to highlight local businesses that could help to inspire other companies to export their goods and services. Everything Dinosaur team members were interviewed, and a short video produced. The aim of this project is to help and inspire others to export. Picture credit: Everything Dinosaur.
Everything Dinosaur Helping to Inspire Others
Cheshire and Warrington Growth Hub wanted to help support the drive for exports during International Trade Week and contacted Everything Dinosaur to see if team members were willing to be interviewed about how they sell dinosaur and prehistoric animal models to customers based overseas. Lauren and Emily from Prickly Peach Films were despatched, and they made a short video about Everything Dinosaur’s export success.

The aim of this video, one of a series of promotional activities organised by the Cheshire and Warrington Growth Hub in collaboration with the Department of Industry and Trade (DIT), is to help encourage other companies to open businesses and to export their goods and services.
Passionate About Dinosaurs
Sue of Everything Dinosaur was reluctant to be interviewed but she helped with the shooting of the B-roll as she was filmed and photographed preparing and packing an order for a customer. Mike was given the task of answering the questions posed by the interviewer and hopefully the video will help to inspire others to pursue their passions and develop sales overseas.

Mike and Sue hope their short video helps to inspire other companies to explore export markets. Perhaps it might even encourage young people just beginning their careers to start their own business dealing with something that they too care about passionately in the same way that Mike and Sue are passionate about dinosaurs.
Everything Dinosaur team members have been busy sorting out the PNSO Deinocheirus and Sinopliosaurus boxes as they prepare and pack orders for customers.
The new for 2022 PNSO dinosaur models are part of the latest product shipment to reach Everything Dinosaur’s warehouse. Team members have been contacting customers who enquired about these two theropod dinosaur figures and informing them that they are now available.
Both figures (PNSO Deinocheirus and Sinopliosaurus) will be supplied with a free prehistoric animal fact sheet.

PNSO Deinocheirus and Sinopliosaurus
A spokesperson from Everything Dinosaur praised the design team at PNSO for the introduction of these new figures into the company’s mid-size model range and commented that there might be yet another model announcement from PNSO towards the end of this year.

The First Chinese Spinosaurid
Chongzuo the Sinopliosaurus is a not-to-scale replica of the first member of the Spinosauridae family to be named from fossils discovered in China.
The PNSO Chongzuo the Sinopliosaurus is depicted walking close to a river. Fossils now ascribed to this theropod come from a fluvial/lacustrine palaeoenvironment.
Whilst reviewing some information on members of the Sauropoda we came across a photograph that we took of the Eofauna Atlasaurus shortly after stocks of this Eofauna Scientific Research sauropod model arrived at our warehouse.

Eofauna Atlasaurus
The Eofauna Atlasaurus model was the first sauropod figure to be produced by this manufacturer, the Diplodocus replica (D. carnegii) was added to the range earlier this year. Team members recall taking a model outside and taking some pictures close to some ferns. This was an opportunity to highlight the striking colour scheme chosen for this African dinosaur.
It is time for Everything Dinosaur to introduce the first of the new prehistoric animal releases for 2023 from CollectA. Today, we list the first new CollectA models 2023. There have been lots of problems for businesses to contend with over the last two years or so. The global pandemic has had a severe impact on manufacturing and there are continuing difficulties with production schedules and logistics.
In addition, Anthony Beeson, one of the leading lights behind the design of the CollectA prehistoric animal model range, sadly passed away in April. His inspirational legacy lives on reflected in the huge range of prehistoric animal models and replicas that CollectA manufactures and thanks to Anthony’s dedication there are many more new figures to come.
CollectA today announces three additions to their Popular Age of Dinosaurs range.
Triceratops horridus – confronting (Age of Dinosaurs Popular) due to be available early 2023.
Hadrosaurus (Age of Dinosaurs Popular) due to be available early 2023.
Ceratosuchops fishing (Age of Dinosaurs Popular) due to be available early 2023.
New CollectA Models
The first of the new CollectA prehistoric animal models for 2023.
Triceratops horridus – Confronting
CollectA have updated their Triceratops replica in their popular Prehistoric Life range. This is the second Triceratops horridus dinosaur model to be introduced by CollectA after the addition of the CollectA Deluxe 1:40 scale T. horridus in 2022.
This latest ceratopsian figure from CollectA incorporates the latest scientific research on the iconic “three-horned face”, just like the previously introduced 1:40 scale replica. For example, this new Triceratops has large, prominent scales embedded in its skin, as demonstrated in the skin impressions associated with the T. horridus specimen nicknamed Lane, which is still being studied.
The new for 2022 CollectA Age of Dinosaurs Popular Triceratops horridus – confronting dinosaur model.
The colourful head is lowered as if this dinosaur is preparing to defend itself from an attacking theropod dinosaur such as Tyrannosaurus rex. Hence the model’s name – Triceratops horridus – confronting.
CollectA Hadrosaurus (H. foulkii)
The second new for 2023 CollectA figure is Hadrosaurus, a model of the first duck-billed dinosaur to be named and the first member of the Dinosauria to be described from fossils found in North America.
The new for 2022 CollectA Age of Dinosaurs Hadrosaurus dinosaur model.
Unlike the first reconstructions of Hadrosaurus (H. foulkii), which depicted this herbivorous dinosaur as a biped, the new for 2023 CollectA Hadrosaurus figure is a depicted as a quadruped, although this robust dinosaur could probably rear up onto its hind legs when compelled to do so. The large scales on the neck reflect recent studies into Hadrosauridae skin texture and the CollectA model has been given a flash of yellow paint around its eyes and a colourful, bright pink snout reflecting current scientific thinking that this animal probably lived in social herds and relied on visual communication amongst herd members.
Ceratosuchops Fishing
In contrast to the Hadrosaurus figure, a model of a dinosaur that was described nearly 165 years ago, the last of the trio of new CollectA figures we announce this week is a model of a dinosaur that was only formally described last year (2021).
The new for 2022 CollectA Ceratosuchops fishing with moveable jaw.
Known from fragmentary fossils found on the Isle of Wight, Ceratosuchops has been assigned to the Spinosauridae family and although this large theropod was capable of hunting smaller dinosaurs, it probably specialised in catching fish. The new for 2023 CollectA Prehistoric Life Ceratosuchops has been posed as if it was lurking close to the water’s edge preparing to catch a fish. In the scientific paper published in September 2021 (Barker et al), the researchers noted the rugose nature of the posterior portion of the nasal bone and the raised bone associated with the preorbital. These features suggest that Ceratosuchops had bony ridges above its eyes, and these have been coloured bright orange as these features may have signalled the dinosaur’s health and maturity.
The CollectA Ceratosuchops fishing has an articulated lower jaw.
Model Measurements
CollectA Age of Dinosaurs Popular Triceratops horridus (Confronting) – length 19.3 cm, height of headshield 7.3 cm.
CollectA Age of Dinosaurs Popular Hadrosaurus – length 14 cm, height 5 cm.
CollectA Age of Dinosaurs Popular Ceratosuchops fishing with an articulated jaw – length 24 cm, height 8.5 cm.
This trio of fabulous CollectA Popular Age of Dinosaurs figures are scheduled to be in stock at Everything Dinosaur in the early part of 2023. When we have more precise information about a delivery date to our warehouse, we will post up details on our social media platforms.
We will post up more details about new for 2023 CollectA models next Friday and a brief video about these three figures will shortly be posted on Everything Dinosaur’s YouTube channel.
Have you ever had a problem inserting the tail piece into a dinosaur model, the latest Everything Dinosaur YouTube video demonstrates an easy fix using the new for 2022 Rebor Tusk T. rex dinosaur model. How to insert the tail piece into a dinosaur model without the fuss!
How to insert the tail piece into a Rebor dinosaur model (Tusk the T. rex 1:35 scale figure) – here is an easy way!
Rebor Tusk T. rex
The Rebor Tyrannosaurus rex Tusk King T. rex Requiem figure is supplied in two pieces and some construction is required. In our short video (duration five minutes forty-five seconds), we review the dinosaur model and demonstrate ways in which the tail can be securely inserted into the body piece with the minimum of fuss. No glue is required.

The Transparent Support Stand
Check the Rebor Tusk T. rex box contents carefully. Both the Rebor Tusk and Kiss figures are supplied with a snap-together, three-piece support stand. The stand is quite compact and small, it could be overlooked amongst the model packaging. Assemble the transparent stand and carefully slide it home under the chest of your Rebor figure so that it provides additional support.
The Rebor T. rex Tusk King T. rex Requiem model is supplied with a clear plastic support base, but our models appear quite stable even standing on our office carpet without the need for the support stand. However, Everything Dinosaur does recommend that customers use the transparent support stand provided. Picture credit: Everything Dinosaur.
Why a Tail Piece?
Customers might ask why does the figure have a detachable tail? This is a sensible question to ask, and this is done so that Rebor can reduce the amount of packaging material required for each model. This helps to reduce the use of plastic, paper and cardboard, all part of Rebor’s commitment to the environment.
The Rebor Tyrannosaurus rex Tusk King T. rex Requiem dinosaur model is very popular, to view the range of Rebor models and figures in stock at Everything Dinosaur: Rebor Prehistoric Animal Models and Figures.
