Another one I need to get. Love how PNSO improves they models over the years, and this is another example of it. Now they changed they paintjobs to be more colorfull, almost all of recent releases had differences in paint scheme. And as always, great review!
Oh for SURE!! Loved that franchise! I’m working on molding armor for some of my dinos from milliput clay, like Sauron’s steel mouth armor for my tyrannosaurs, or an axe shaped armor plate for my ankylosaurs!
Here’s to those complaining about lips vs lipless dinosaurs.. There’s not enough evidence to verify such claims from either side of the argument. If you’re looking for a reason to justify your purchase (or dismiss it altogether) do so but know, it is based on your own emotional response, not Science.
thank you, well put. I get so tired of the silly, cancerous internet drama within the communities. I think it's possible some dinosaurs had them and some dinosaurs didn't. don't really give a fuck either way though.. Lips aren't a deal breaker for dinosaurs. Whether they had them or not matters little. They're still DINOSAURS for crying out loud! They're still immensely fascinating creatures regardless. Personally, I sort of think lips are too advanced a feature for dinosaurs to have. They were primitive life forms. Again though, perhaps some had lips, and some didn't. It really depends on whether or not it was a 'necessary' trait for them to have.
If we're going to accept anything new then we should for example accept that the spinosaurus is not aquatic which really bothers me hard but paleontology means theory and debate and no one can dismiss or disrespect other people researches, in my opinion a proofing evidence would be a mummified fossil of a theropod jaw.
another beautiful model by pnso and like always im not disappointed, i wish i get this at some point in the future, cuz i want to collect dinos based on formations and i got no formation that includes tyrannotitan nor i can make it currently
Now I've got six of the pnso carcharodontisaurs, two more allosaurs, and two megalosaurs. Need all their spinosaurs to round out ut all their carnosaur offerings. And yes, they've brought back the Carnosaur nomenclature minus, of course, the tyranosauroids, which belong with the coluroesauriods.
I really wish PNSO would make more smaller animals, like dromeosaurs and ornithomimids. I really want a Utahraptor or an Ornitholestes, Gigantoraptor would be dope. I’m just getting burnt out on all the carcharodontosaurs and tyrannosaurs.
Glad they didn't default back to green with brown stripes or something like that :) Also I found a sauropod toy on Temu that looks like a knockoff Haolonggood dicraeosaurus😂 Needless to say I bought it and am going to do a repaint.
This Looks SO AWESOME! The lipless ness doesn’t really bother me as the way I interpret lips would be more a scabbard but for teeth attached to the lower jaw. I’m not sure if I’m correct in that but it’s all that makes sense to me. Anyway W review
That's actually a really cool idea! I may make that video soon once I get caught up on some reviews I gotta get finished. Thank you for the fun suggestion!
Seems like PNSO are starting to do more colourful paint application than older models . Perhaps they've taken more of how good Haolongood models have become and are doing a colour scheme to rival
Actually, when it comes to therapods in general, including the latest PNSO interpretations, they all are fully lipped as of late. Only thing really wrong with these figures showing thier teeth is the lips improperly laying flat, when studies show they had intricate muscles & tendons, designed to flare & lift, to expose thier teeth to potential predators, rivals, & mating partners, for various intimidations & displays. The main thing is most of time, they were flaring thier lips to allow the various hellbugs & critters to pick & clean thier meat & bacteria laden teeth, even when sleeping, standing, or walking, considering the sheer amount of calories needed to survive daily. . . Now, update them lips, figure makers correctly showing exposed dinosaur teeth! I shant tell the again!!!
What? Never heard of such thing, its always either lipless or immobile lizard like lips, unless im missing something big here in which case i would like you to share it
the lipless thing is a deal-breaker. it's antiquated for a company boasting "scientific accuracy" to keep doing this. if it was a JP design or going for a retro look it would be fine. easy pass for me.
there’s not scientific evidence Dinosaurs had lips.. and if so, where is it? It’s all speculation. I personally see it both ways, some species may have had lips while other specimens most likely didn’t. .
Lips still aren’t solidly proven and there are still many cases against them, as well as multiple paleontologists, like Thomas Carr, who don’t support the lip hypothesis. The figure is perfectly and flawlessly accurate.
This figure was made quite a bit of time ago when mapu and other carchars were released. For some reason this figure got delayed and released now. There's no Jurassic park bias in it lol, that's a plain stupid claim. Making one figure takes over a year, recalling it to fix it would bring way more financial loss than benefits. If u don't want to buy it go ahead, just stop with conspiracy theories lol
Lips dont have a 100% conclusive evidence, especially when it comes to carcharodontosaurids, everything else in this figure is 100% accurate and a debated feature (lipless) no real inaccuracy is spotted, how is this against "scientific accuracy"? Even paleo professionals are like "whatever" on lipless interpretations if the rest of the anatomy is spot on... Also the jurassic park bias thing is stupid, like if scientific illustrations never have exposed teeth, even the most recent tyrannosaurus species has exposed teeth in the scientific illustration for the paper
@@firegator6853 There will never be a fossil preserving lips. But there are a ton of hints pointing towards theropods with lips. It's becoming more and more consensus among paleontologists.
@@marschmellow6678 and till now i see good arguments for both interpretations it definitely is still something uncertain, therefore it cannot be incorrect but also not correct either
