New on the Dinosaur Toy Blog. A plush Quetzalcoatlus (Field Museum, Wild Republic): dinotoyblog.com/quetzalcoatlus

"...most of the toy features a very short coat of polyester fuzz, which is actually quite fitting for a pterosaur that was likely covered in hairlike pycnofibres in life."

New on the Dinosaur Toy Blog. Herrerasaurus (Jurassic World Dino-Trackers, Strike Attack by Mattel): dinotoyblog.com/herrerasaurus-

"It has a few anatomical shortcomings but they’re all minor when compared to the overall presentation which deviates strongly from the typical Mattel aesthetic"

New on the Dinosaur Toy Blog, Troodon by Mojo: dinotoyblog.com/troodon-mojo-f

" troodontid skulls are known for their enlarged orbits, but the eyes on this one are downright miniscule. It ends up coming off like more of a generic dromaeosaur toy than a proper troodontid."

New on the Dinosaur Toy Blog: Hadrosaurus (CollectA): dinotoyblog.com/hadrosaurus-co

"Although only known from 35 bones and some teeth from a single specimen, Hadrosaurus is more significant than its fragmentary remains would suggest. Hadrosaurus foulkii was first described by Joseph Leidy in 1858 from remains found in New Jersey’s Woodbury Formation. It is the first dinosaur ever discovered in the United States and the first dinosaur skeleton..."

New on the Dinosaur Toy Blog, Nothosaurus (Jurassic World Dino-Trackers, Danger Pack by Mattel): dinotoyblog.com/nothosaurus-ju

"The Mattel Nothosaurus is one of my favorite offerings from Mattel this year and one of their best non-dinosaurs. It should hold me over well enough until a company like PNSO, CollectA, or Safari delivers a proper figurine style Nothosaurus."

Recently on the Dinosaur Toy Blog: Giganotosaurus (Dinosaur Action by Kid Galaxy): dinotoyblog.com/giganotosaurus

"The figure heavily resembles the Dorling Kindersley model from books, and it's most likely based on it, as Kid Galaxy has used DK models for reference before."

New on the Dinosaur Toy Blog, Papo are at it again, here's our take on their new Mosasaurus: dinotoyblog.com/mosasaurus-pap

"More Mosasaurus toys have been produced in the 8 years since Jurassic World than in the entire previous history of the toy industry. The majority of those toys have been influenced by the JW design, with spikes all over the back, cavities all over the head, and an old-fashioned tail..."

New on the DinoToyBlog: Ankylosaurus (Jurassic Park: Hammond Collection by Mattel: dinotoyblog.com/ankylosaurus-j

"...this figure certainly doesn't offer anything for strict adherents to paleo-accuracy. There's still something I find charming about the retro design used, though."

"...the sculpt captures all the iconic features and proportions of this giant strange ornithomimosaur, with its duck-like bill, humped back, and a shaggy coat of feathers similar to the likes of an ostrich"
