PNSO Megalodon Model – More Information

At Everything Dinosaur, we try our best to respond to all the enquiries, questions and emails that we receive from our customers. This is no mean feat considering the thousands of customers we have all over the world, but we do try hard to answer all the queries in a timely fashion. For example, having produced a short video featuring the large Megalodon (Carcharocles megalodon) replica from PNSO, we were asked to show more details of this shark model. To this end, within 24-hours, we produced another brief video showing the prehistoric shark model in greater detail.

PNSO Megalodon “Patton” Large Prehistoric Shark Model

In this short video presentation, we reaffirm the model’s size (it measures around 32 centimetres in length), we estimate the model’s scale at approximately 1:50 based on the length of Carcharocles megalodon at around 16 metres. In addition, we highlight the “battle scarring” on the model and discuss the figure’s gloss finish. Large predators tend to pick up a variety of injuries, we suspect Megalodon was no exception. If it preyed on marine mammals, we expect creatures such as Obobenocetops which was contemporaneous with this prehistoric shark, not to succumb without putting up a fight. Scars and tears in the fins would be just part of being an apex predator.

Our latest prehistoric animal themed video is now up on the company’s YouTube channel. Everything Dinosaur’s YouTube channel features over a hundred different prehistoric animal model reviews and lots of other helpful information for model collectors and dinosaur fans.

A Glossy Model with a Superb Wash

In this short video, we also comment on the finish of this shark replica. The new version of “Patton” (the large PNSO Megalodon figure), has a glossier finish than its predecessor. The model’s seams are much less visible and the addition of a gloss provides a pleasing wet-look finish to the figure. As the video narrator remarked, the wet-look is very appropriate given the fact that this is a model of a marine animal.

Please note this genus binomial name has been revised to Otodus megalodon.

The Spectacular PNSO Large Megalodon Model – Patton

The Battle Damaged PNSO Large Megalodon Model

Our friends at PNSO introduced this year a new version of their large prehistoric shark replica (Megalodon). We have been asked by many fans of prehistoric animals to show more pictures of this exciting figure. Our team members are happy to oblige and we have produced a short video in which we unbox this large replica and provide a view of the amazing paintwork and detail on this PVC shark. We also comment on the intricate and subtle scarring that is seen on this PNSO Megalodon replica.

Reviewing a Fearsome Prehistoric Shark (PNSO Megalodon)

Known from calcified vertebrae and most famously, from huge triangular teeth, this prehistoric shark is thought to be the largest hypercarnivorous elasmobranch to have ever existed. Size estimates vary, but a length of approximately sixteen metres has been proposed. The PNSO Megalodon figure is also an impressive size, it measures around 32 centimetres in length and when erected on its display base (included in the box), the figure stands some 25 cm high.

Patton or Patton?

In our short video, (it lasts around 1 minute 45 seconds), we highlight some of the beautiful detail on this amazing prehistoric shark model. PNSO now have two Megalodon models in their range. Earlier this year, a second, smaller model was introduced, this figure had an articulated lower jaw. Ironically, both these figures have been given the nickname “Patton” by the manufacturer, this might lead to a little bit of confusion.

We have asked our chums at PNSO for explanation, it seems that since Patton proved to be such a popular name for the larger figure, then the monicker became the name of choice for the second Megalodon replica. So, PNSO currently offer two Megalodon figures, both entitled Patton.

Rebor GrabNGo Komodo Dragon – What Lies Beneath?

Rebor GrabNGo Komodo Dragon – Examining the Underside

Everything Dinosaur team members have been busy fielding all the questions we have received about the exciting new GrabNGo product line from Rebor. The first of these new replicas, a 1:6 scale replica of a Komodo dragon (Varanus komodoensis), is due to arrive in November, but we are expecting to receive some more production samples before then. In the meantime, staff have been responding to the emails, phone calls and social media messages about this new product line.

Rebor models and figures: Rebor Figures and Models.

Rebor GrabNGo Komodo Dragon

Several customers commented on the beautiful detail on the skin that they could see from our photographs, but asked us to show pictures of the underside of the model as well. We always try to help our customers out, so without further ado we set about posting up a short YouTube video showing the “belly of the beast.”

The Detailed Underside of the Rebor GrabNGo Komodo Dragon

In this short video (it lasts a fraction under fifty seconds), we show a view of the belly of the lizard replica. The fine detail associated with the top of the model is mirrored underneath. The figure is beautifully crafted and at about half a metre in length, it is an impressive size. We are not sure why many of our customers wanted to see the underside, we suspect that inferior figures may not have the detailing or finish. Our customers can rest assured, the Rebor GrabNGo underside shows the same care and attention to detail as the rest of the model, although we would point out that our production prototype is missing a cloaca.

The Priority List is Now Open

The model has been priced at just £13.32 plus tax (if due) and postage. Everything Dinosaur opened a reserve list for this figure a few days ago and the company has already logged a great many reservation requests. The model is due to be in stock sometime in November (2019).

Beautiful Papo Models on Display

Papo Prehistoric Animal Models on Display

At Everything Dinosaur, we are always keen to see how the prehistoric animal models that we supply are displayed. Our staff are constantly amazed by the incredible dinosaur dioramas and prehistoric landscapes that are built by our customers. Take for example, Donovan from Canada. An enthusiastic collector of Papo figures “Les Dinosaures”, Donovan has built a substantial display case for the Papo models within his collection.

The new for 2019 Papo Pentaceratops can be seen on the left of the picture (above), in between the huge Papo Brachiosaurus and just behind the Papo Ankylosaurus model. It had better look out as emerging from the trees we can see a Papo running T. rex model lurking, perhaps getting ready to ambush the unwary horned dinosaur!

Clever Use of Silhouettes

Providing a backdrop to the model display are some excellent silhouettes that help to provide an illusion of depth. They are very well drawn and we congratulate our Canadian customer for such a creatively constructed prehistoric landscape. There is certainly plenty of detail to admire, including a Therizinosaurus defending itself from an attacking Acrocanthosaurus and an unfortunate Styracosaurus that has been grabbed by a crocodile.

After providing permission for Everything Dinosaur to post up some pictures of his handiwork, Donovan explained that his personal prehistoric park took many hours to plan and to build, he commented:

“It took a lot of hard work for me to build that toy box/ display case. I hope to finish the bookshelf case this winter that will go with the toy box and display the other half of our Papo figures.”

Everything Dinosaur Handling UK and European Kickstarter Action Figure Rewards

With the launch of the Kickstarter campaign for the Beasts of the Mesozoic Ceratopsian series, these are exciting times for model collectors and dinosaur fans. Everything Dinosaur, the UK-based, specialist prehistoric animal mail order company is proud to have been associated with the Beasts of the Mesozoic range of collectable figures for several years and will be handling the fulfilment of all the Kickstarter action figure rewards for this prestigious campaign for Ceratopsian Kickstarter backers within the UK and European Union.

The Beasts of the Mesozoic Ceratopsian Series Kickstarter Has Launched

Everything Dinosaur’s Involvement with Beasts of the Mesozoic

The involvement of Everything Dinosaur in the fulfilment aspect of the campaign further cements the close working relationship between the talented team behind Creative Beast Studio and the logistics experts at an award-winning company.

View the Beasts of the Mesozoic range of models in stock: Beasts of the Mesozoic Figures.

Dinosaur fans are going to be elated about this new Kickstarter project, but the design and build process is just one phase in meeting the needs of model collectors. Followers of the previous “Raptor” Kickstarter project will be all too aware of the difficulties that can arise during the production process. Once produced, other issues can be encountered as these models are despatched to project supporters.

By involving Everything Dinosaur in the fulfilment, supporters within the UK and Europe can be assured that their figures will be despatched by Everything Dinosaur from their European base. This substantially reduces the risk of customers incurring additional taxes, custom duties and tariffs.

What a Line Up! A Cornucopia of Ceratopsians

A selection of some of the amazing Beasts of the Mesozoic Ceratopsians. — A selection of Beasts of the Mesozoic horned dinosaur models. The Kickstarter campaign outlines a schedule of ten models being released in September 2020, with a further eight new figures in March 2021. If all goes to plan, a third wave consisting of seven more dinosaurs will be available in September 2021.

Ceratopsian Figures Coming into Stock

As well as handling the fulfilment for European and UK customers, Everything Dinosaur will be bringing in their own bulk stock of these figures, this should ensure a swift and trouble free route for the models from the factory to UK warehousing without customs delays, thus ensuring that Kickstarter backers can receive their pledged items promptly.

In addition, as Everything Dinosaur will be carrying stocks of the Beasts of the Mesozoic ranges, fans can add to their figure collection easily and conveniently via Everything Dinosaur’s own website.

Mike Walley from Everything Dinosaur commented:

“Fulfilment operations on a global scale can be quite a tricky business. Fans of the excellent Beasts of the Mesozoic model range want to get these models without any additional burdens. At Everything Dinosaur, our warehouse team despatch parcels to Europe and the UK all the time, our customers are well-used to our seamless and efficient delivery service.“

He added:

“Whilst we cannot guarantee that customers may incur additional expense in the form of duties and taxes, or indeed that international trading terms and conditions may change, in our experience when supplying European and UK customers from our UK warehousing we are have not heard of any problems arising . We take great care to ensure that parcels are labelled correctly and despatched appropriately, after all, we have a 5-star customer service rating from Feefo as well as an award for Gold Standard service.”

Rebor GrabNGo Komodo Dragon Model

Everything Dinosaur team members have been taking an exclusive look at the up-and-coming Rebor Komodo dragon (Varanus komodoensis) model, which is the first in a new product line entitled “GrabNGo”. This is a beautiful, highly detailed model of the largest living lizard, which is sometimes referred to as the Komodo monitor.

A 1:6 Scale Rebor Komodo Dragon Replica

The model measures a fraction under 48 centimetres in length, but when the curvature of that impressive tail is taken into account the model’s true size is around half a metre, making this a 1:6 scale replica. The skin texture has been skilfully created with accurate folds and appropriately proportioned digits. The underside of the body and tail also shows lots of amazing detail and scales, particularly along the underside of the neck and jaw, although our figure lacks a cloaca. The production sample we were kindly sent does not have a CE mark so the skin texture is uninterrupted along the entire animal’s length.

Dragon Skin

The lightweight but reinforced hollow vinyl material gives this figure a very solid feel and the subtle painting provides the viewer with an impression of an expensive desk-top figure. The Komodo dragon is renowned for its tough hide. The skin of this lizard, which can reach lengths of up to 2.6 metres and weigh in excess of 70 kilograms, is reinforced by tiny dermal scales (osteoderms). It is thought that this armour helps to prevent injury when it attacks large prey or during intraspecific combat.

The Megalania Connection

This Rebor GrabNGo figure could also be used to represent the extinct giant goanna of southern Australia – Megalania (Varanus priscus, or sometimes referred to as Megalania prisca). It has been proposed that Megalania represents a sister taxon to the Komodo dragon and like its Indonesian cousin, it was an apex predator within the ecosystem. Size estimates for Megalania vary but studies of fossilised dorsal vertebrae suggest a length of around 6 metres. If this is the case, then the Rebor GrabNGo model would equate to a 1:12 scale replica.

Is this a Megalania or a Komodo Dragon?

Megalania or Komodo dragon? Your decide. — *Komodo dragon or Megalania? You decide.* *Picture credit: Everything Dinosaur.*

Available Late September/Early October

The Rebor GrabNGo Komodo dragon is likely to be available before Christmas. Everything Dinosaur team members are doing all they can to ship this model in quickly.

The price is estimated to be around £15.99 plus postage (GBP).

A Special Dinosaur Delivery

Everything Dinosaur has lots of customers in South America. Sometimes some of our customers visit the UK and they request that if they are staying in the UK, could they order some prehistoric animal models and have Everything Dinosaur despatch them to a UK address such as a hotel or guest house. By doing this, model collectors can get their hands on the latest prehistoric animal models, without having to worry about international deliveries.

A Dinosaur Delivery

Andre is a case in point. He contacted Everything Dinosaur some months ago requesting that we reserve some up and coming, 2019 dinosaur models for him. He explained that he would be travelling to London in September and if possible, could we liaise with him so that his models could be delivered to the hotel where he was staying. Sure enough, our team members were happy to oblige, to set aside the models he wanted as they came into stock and then organise a courier delivery to his hotel.

Delighted with our customer service, Andre kindly sent in a picture of the latest additions to his model collection.
