 Frilled shark  I already have two--the Kaiyodo Animaltales one, and a tiny K&M one! But I think the Safari one may be the best yet (I will wait and see). I've seen the kaiyodo version-- But not the K&M! Pictures?  And for the non-prehistoric crowd, I'm pretty sure K&M made the only swell shark (probably one of the coolest sharks ever). Kaiyodo did a hemicyclaspis. And pterygotus. And trochosaurus. And.... |

Yes kaiyodo does many that the other retialers**cough, cough** wouldn't have the guts to do. Saichania is unique to schleich if we don't count kaiyodo. If we did, nearly everything would be taken.

Oh about a site for cryptid surviviors, try this: www.cryptomundo.com/cryptozoo-news/andrewsarchus2/This particular page discusses condylarths, like andrewsarchus and sarkastodon. There are actually quite a few andrewsarchus figures around nowadays, though by farily obscure companies. Noone ever made a sarkastodon, though. or did they? |

Here is the Frilled:  And just for fun--the only lantern shark I am aware of:  And just to be clear--the scale is in centimetres. |

They look neat! I think the most dinosaurs I've seen were, well not a dinosaur but many companies make Dimetrodon.

Kinto did a saichania skeleton. Bandai did an irritator... Sbell-- Those sharks are awesome The funny thing--they come out of bouncy balls. They are about 1" long. We brought in the shark balls for the first time this year--and had to reorder before the summer was over. |

I too think that Procon Olorotitan is one of the best figs available today. Kinda ironic considering that so many of their figs are a bit cartoonish and/or inacurate.

I kinda hope Procon makes a bunch of raisuchians - they seem to have a better understanding of quadrupedal animals than bipedal ones.

^^^ Their sauropods are probably the worst they've made  I hope Safari makes more rauisuchians  Improbable, I know, but still. |

I don't remember the sauropods being egregiously wrong, just a little ugly.

Gotta agree with boki here - Procon may not always hit it on the head, but they have made a few nice figures, particularly Olorotitan and Tenontosaurus. Sarcosuchus isn't terrible either.
