Takamas Geoworld Collection

Nice again!

One more beautyful model   

Interesting, that there is so little known about the species that gave name to the family   

Lots of great new additions. I see the number of red lines at the wiki getting fewer and fewer. You will have the whole series soon. Thanks so much for sharing it with us.

Im glad I can make the Jurassic Hunters series complete. I have the last of the dinosaurs on there way to my house. after that, I will have to wait for the Mammals which were slated for June, but now are delayed until August or September.

You have a really impressive collection!
Could you also show some pictures of them together? They look pretty big.

    Perhaps I can assemble all of the dinosaurs on our dinner table for a photo once the Rest of them comes to my house     

Right now I have one more to show until then

Psittacosaurus
Psittacosaurus  is a good example of a primitive Ceratopsian. It was comparably small, It lacked a neck frill, and it can walk on two legs. There is also two bones that jut out of its cheeks. These bones were thought to have evolved to large brow horns that you would see on the more advanced members. In the year 2002 it was published that Psittacosaurus(or at least some species of that genus) had feather like quills on its tail. This has led to some speculation and debate on whether or not the more advanced Ceratopsian members (Such as Triceratops) had them as well.

Hypsilophodon

From the Isle of wright, Hypsilophodon was a small Ornithopod that is best know for good speed, but it was at one time thoght to have climped trees. This dinosaur is the standard of the Hypsilophodon family, which consists of small bipedal dinosaurs with beaks. These dinosaurs survived from the late Jurassic to the very end of the age of Dinosaurs.

A real little cutie     

Suchomimus

Suchomimus was a Spinosaur that lived in Africa. It was larger then Baryonyx, but smaller then Spinosaurus. Like its cousins. It most likely ate fish. What set it apart from Baryonyx is that it had a low row of spins on its back. However, some scientist have found similar spines on the back of its English cousin, making some to believe that Suchomimus was just a new species of Baryonyx.

Chasmosaurus

Chasmosaurus is a Square frilled Ceratopsian that lived in Alberta Canada alongside several other ceratopsians and Hadrosaurs. Its was hunted by two different Tyrannosaurs, whose famous descendent will continue to hunt Chasmosaurus kind to the end of the Mesozoic Era.

Dinosaurs like Hypsilophodon are very rare as toys, it is good to watch such a nice one   

     

Very beautiful dinosaurs again. The last one is pretty handsome   

Augustinia

Augustinia is a dinosaur that is best known as the Sauropod with the armor of a Stegosaur. It was thought to have had spikes jutting out of its back, but now some scientists have shown that the supposed spikes were nothing more then rib and hip bones, making it a less distinctive Sauropod.

Rebbachisaurus
Rebbachisaurus, was a diplodocid Sauropod from the Early Cretaceous in Africa. The most notable feature on this dinosaur is the tall neural spines on its back which could either of been a long sail or a simple fatty hump like structure. Another feature of this dinosaur, Is that its face was wide Like its cousin Nigersaurus, and it also had a dental battery at the front of its mouth that allowed it to eat continuously.

This agustinia is really incredible, It looks like a copy of the CollectA ones   They even choose the same odd head...   

Nice figurine

Enjoyed again all these interesting entries with great pictures!

Polacanthus is an English Nodasaur with a large sacral shield on its back. Like a lot of Nodasaurs, it was heavily armored with spikes, giving it protection from predators like Neovenator., as of now, there is no complete skull of this dinosaur, so scientists have to rely on other well known Nodasaurs to restore it. It was at one time thought that it lacked a tail club, but further finds have suggested that this was not even the case

Yesterday I've found Geoworld figures being sold here in Lisbon. A somewhat different concept from major brands but interesting for sure.

Lucky? I won't buy them, Susanne!

As people say in Italy:
"God gives wings to those who don't know to fly."
... in France:
"bread comes to those who lack teeth."
... Portugal:
"God gives nuts to those who have no teeth."
... in Denmark:
"Why do crocodiles have so many teeth if they don't chew?"

Ankylosaurus

Ankylosaurus is the most famous of the armored dinosaurs, however, it is known from only partial Skeletons that include skulls. It is seen as one of the largest armored dinosaurs, with a size estimate of around 30 feet, and its body was very wide like a hippo. Its back is covered in bone, which makes it Stiff, as its name means Stiff lizard. It also has a club on its tail, that’s used for defense like a war hammer. Ankylosaurus(and its kin) also had a complicated nose with various complex chambers whose purpose is uncertain. Some scientists think that they were resonating chambers to help it call out others of its kind, while others think it just enhanced its smell.

And now the VERY Last of the Geoworld Dinosaurs.

Ceratosaurus

Ceratosaurus was one of the top predators  in its ecosystem, coming next to Allosaurus (and possibly Torvosaurus or Saurophagonax). Its mouth was full of big sharp teeth, and its head was large in proportion to its body. Its most prominent  features was a set of horns on top of its head as well as rows of  large scutes on its back. The use of the horns has been debated, but the most credibly debated use is that they were simply for display among its species.
