2012/2013 is going to be an exciting (and expensive) year! Now even more insensible to find a better job - make more money do I can buy ALL THE MAMMALS!

Those skeletons are pretty cool, actually... I love the Gastornis(?). That one does look pretty good, although they appear to have given it bunny hands(!).

I'm hoping for a redo of the rest of the Carnegie sculpts (crosses fingers0
I've been thinking, according to the measurements on the new Carnegie brachio. I think it will end up being 1/40 scale. When they figure the scales of their dinos they don't count how the neck curls or the tail curls.

I guess once we have it in hand we'll know for sure if our expectations have been met or not in regard to size. I'm sure it will be in regard to detail.

I don't like mojo's dinosaurs, but I have high hopes for their mammals, and I expect with time their dinos will improve also. And I think it's WONDERFUL that they are taking such a proactive approach to what their fans want!

When they figure the scales of their dinos they don't count how the neck curls or the tail curls. I measured the old Carnegie Brachiosaurus. It is about 5.75" at the highest point of the shoulders. The 2012 Brachiosaurus is listed at 7" high. If ones assumes that this is measured at the highest point of the roughly horizontal neck then the 2 models should be about the same scale. Seems roughly the same size as the old Brachio if you consider the old has a shoulder height around 5.75".Check out this diagram:

indy, the way that Safari do their scales, it should end up at 1/40. I've noticed they don't take into fact the way the tails curve and things like that.

That's good news. Large sauropods should remain large.

I'm disappointed about the size of the new Schelihs (spelling?)
but the new deluxe CollectAs are looking awesome.
is there any photos of the standard sized ones?

Sports Illustrated: Megacerops Edition? -strategic placement of log and Deinocheirus! The deluxe figures look great! ...Oh, there's the Schleich Triceratops with the dragon feet! ;D

The Collecta Deinocheirus is still looking good, happily. Big too.

These CollectAs keep looking better and better!
And it's nice to see that the Carnegie Brachiosaurus is going to be at least as big as the old one.

Wow, the Deinocheirus looks huge! Looks about the size of their Kelenken, but longer. I wish CollectA would have some kind of relevant scale for their Deluxe versions. Their new Amarga's neck still looks too short at any of those angles. But, it still looks like a pretty decent fig overall. What's that base the Megacerops is on? Is that also going to be available? There never seems to be a good pic of the new Carnegie Brachi with other familiar figs to get a better idea of his size. It's being said that he's the size of the older one. I'm assuming the big Carnegie old one, not the past newer version of the WS, right? Too bad about the extra small sizes of the new Schleich's, especially the sauropods. That new Apato looks really tiny next to the Rex. Anyway, thanks for the pics!
