CollectA Dinosaur refrence guide

It's a nice figure!!

Three in one this time. Because theres Three figures of the same creture


Basic Facts
Brachiosaurus was a Macranarion (big nosed) Sauropod that lived during the late Jurassic in North America. It stood around 72 feet tall with its arms being longer then its hind legs. For a while, it was thought that a different species of Brachiosaurus lived at the same time on the continent of Africa.
This African Species was often thought to be a true Brachiosaurus, so it was referenced when it came to toy reconstructions of Brachiosaurus. However, today’s scientists have determined that this species was from a completely different Genus called Girafatitan making the reconstructions misnamed due to new discoveries.

I remember seeing the Deluxe version here in shop shelves. He is a kind of king of the toyland.
Thanks for showing different versions, it is very nice to follow.

i like the brachio's

Nice again

Basic facts
From the Mid Jurrasic of China comes the sauropod Shunosaurus. It stood around 31 feet long, and had a long tail with a spikey club on it, that was used for defense.
Shunosaurus neck was shorter then most suaropods, so it is thought to have been a low browser eating up grounded vegetation like ferns.

Thank you for the walkaround Takama The shunosaurus is one of my favourite sauropod ! I'm still sick because I missed the shunosaurus model made by Geenemodels

im Glad that people like them. It gives me something to do with them, plus it tests my knowledge of the cretures.

I started to buy CollectA for all of the Obscure cretures they made, and this Shunnosaurus was actaully among the first ones that started my collection

I love this critter ! He has heaps of personallity

I didn't know about such dinosaur - Shunosaurus . Thank You for walk around Takama, very interesting :)

Also a nice dino

Nice!! Thanks for showing!!

I am glad you've found a way to enjoy your collection on forum, enjoying us too!
Thanks for telling about that figure, if it was not CollectA I would probably never heard about this dinosaur. Thanks for describing some characteristics, it helps us not seeing all these creatures as they were almost the same.

Basic Facts
Proceratoesaurus was a small theropod that lived during the Jurassic period in England. Its name was given, to reflect a Possible relationship with Ceratosaurus, because of a small horn like crest on the end of its nose. However, new studies have shown that it was not in fact related to Ceratoesaurus, and instead, is an ancestor of the famous Tyrannosaurus Rex. The Skull of this dinosaur was determined to be incomplete and the horn at the end of its nose may have extended across the top of the skull, (as seen on this model)

Lambeosaurus was one of many Hadrosaurs that lived in Canada during the late Cretaceous period. There are currently two species that make up this genus, though some more species are still up for debate. Lambeosaurus Lambi and Lambeosaurus magnicristatus are these two species, and they can be distinguished by the shape of there head crests. L. Lambi had a hatchet shaped crest (as seen on this model), and L. Magnicristatus, which had a rounder type crest that’s similar to Corythosaurus.
The name Lambeosaurus was given to this dinosaur because of Lawrence Lambi, the man who studied the first material of this dinosaur, and has nothing to do with Lambs.

It is great when the correct species can be found in a figure with a generic name.
Thanks for telling that this is not related with lambs, so Carolynn will save some money this time.
Seriously, and in a subjective comment, adrosaurs are among the less apealing figures for me. Only a personal taste. But I enjoy to know about them.

This one has a cool looking!
It looks a crazy version of the Portuguese friend Lourinhanosaurus. Thanks for your pictures and informations.

I like very much this model and, as usual, COLLECTA is the "models never seen before" company. As you explained, Proceratosaurus is a very good example on how palaeontology evolved in the last years.
I also like how the hands are in the good position, facing each others and not looking like a "monster" movie pose

Thank you for the walkaround

This lambeo is still a bit odd to my eyes, strong forelegs, mammalian pose and short necked. I still prefer the old INVICTA

Very nice dinosaur this Proceratoesaurus, again I didn't know about this species at all :) i like the shape and also colors are very nice :) Thank You for sharing

Very interesting - Lambeosaurus It's nice to learn with Your walk arounds Takama I know nothing about how correct this figure is but I like it quite much, it's pink something on head looks like flower very cute Maybe some more patterns on body would look even better

Beautyful model

Nice dino too
