PNSO Prehistoric Dinosaur Models: 58 Luxiong the Zhuchengtyrannus | 11.2" Tyrannosaur Display Model - Movable Jaw - Clear Support - 64-Page Manual - A3 Poster - 8 Videos - 15+

As anyone who purchases scientific models knows, very often the concept art is not what you actually get. However, with the two PNSO figures I have so far (Paul the Allosaurus and Jenny the Centrosaurus), they get pretty close - and they are really nice models. If I had to nitpick, I'd say 1:35 scale is a BIT on the small side and I think dinosaurs like this really deserve a 1:25 or 1:20 scale, though I of course realize this means some of the bigger sauropods would out of necessity still be enormous, as models go (at 1:20 scale, for instance, some of the upper estimates for the longest sauropods could possibly approach 7.5 feet or well over 2 meters in length JUST for the model, which is insane). HOWEVER, at 1:25 scale the small dinosaurs, large theropods and small sauropods would all be quite nicely sized (a large T. Rex at that scale would be about 21" long, while a Velociraptor mongoliensis would be quite tiny at around 3 inches long but not AS tiny as the 1:35 scale would necessitate - meanwhile a larger, let's say 100 foot / 30 meter sauropod would, at 1:25 scale, come in at a very large but MANAGABLE - if you have the space - 4' long or a bit over a meter, which ISN'T that much bigger than the Apatosaurus or Super Colossal Giganotosaurus from Mattel. So I think 1:25 scale is just better overall without making the bigger dinosaurs ABSURDLY big. Mind you, a 4' / 1.2 meter sauropod model IS big for a model BUT we're talking an extreme case, and if someone wouldn't buy a 1:25 scale of a 30 meter/ 100 foot sauropod because it's too big, I really don't think they're going to feel that differently about a slightly smaller 1:35 scale (which would still be nearly 3 feet long). The slightly increased scale would make the specimens that much more impressive without making them TOO big. Or, perhaps, 1:28 to 1:30 would be at least an improvement if we are to find a middle groun. Then again, PNSO is a Chinese company and in China, if you don't know, space comes at a premium - so you do have to think carefully about what your customers can afford to fit into a condo unit in Shanghai, Beijing, Chengdu, etc. So if that's the reason I DO get that too. ONE suggestion then would be...what about a new series of larger figures while still keeping the 1:35 scale? It's my understanding there are a FEW they've made that are larger though in those cases they went crazy big - something like 1:10 scale for a Ceratosaurus, which is nuts if you did it for a Brachiosaurus or something much larger. ANYway, just my musing on the scale. In terms of QUALITY...the paint job is fantastic on both of my models. Does it look EXACTLY like the box art? No, but it's close enough and really looks VERY much like it. I'd say it's about 98% of the way there. There's some SLIGHT bleeding of the paint from the teeth on one spot on the Allosaurus but that's it. The claws are razor sharp and painted, which is great. The detail is great. Not sure how I feel about the BRIGHT blue eyes but it is UNIQUE I will say. The Centrosaurus' frill in the artwork DOES look more irridescent and you see more purple fading into blue which isn't as obvious on the model, so there could be some benefit to be had from using some more shiny paint in some places - but I think it's hard to gradiate also when it IS that small, which again brings me back to my point about moving from 1:35 to 1:25 scale or at least 1:30 scale. All that rambling aside, if you're wasting money on cheap dinosaur models that don't really look that good - even if they cost a bit less, say, $20, stop. Buy from PNSO - BELIEVE me it's worth the extra money over a Safari Ltd. and CERTAINLY the quality you get from the Mattel Jurassic World lineup (they don't even bother painting their claws usually and never paint tails, the sculpts are just plain awful in many cases and the paint jobs are laughable) - if you want to compare buying a Mattel figure, look at THEIR Allosaurus and then look at PNSO's. Sure, Mattel's is BIGGER. I even HAVE it. But PNSO's is LIGHT YEARS beyond in terms of quality, accuracy to the real animal and overall presentation. It's something an adult can proudly display on their shelf - whereas I feel embarrassed to think of someone walking in and seeing one of the Mattel Jurassic World figures on my shelf, because they LOOK like cheap toys while this LOOKS like a scientific model. And that's because they, respectively, are.

Incredible figure especially considering how affordable it is!!! The details are incredible, it’s intricate enough to be a pretty display piece and durable enough to be a child’s toy. It comes with a poster and information pamphlet with instructions on how to draw a fossil accurate allosaurus yourself! I’m more than impressed!!

Pnso offers amazing display figures, and paleontological interpretations of prehistoric animals. Highly recommend.

Great quality model. Probably my 2nd favorite PNSO Dino model. Right behind the Saurophaganax. Some people might think that 40ish dollars is high..... But it's a very generous price for the amount of quality you're getting. Literally I would expect these to be $100+ figures. The quality for these is very good. More than worth 40 bucks.

2021 PNSO “Wyatt” the Parasaurolophus Parasaurolophus is my second favorite dinosaur. So, when I found out that PNSO was releasing a figure of one, I knew I had to get my hands on it. I’m happy to say that this Parasaurolophus has exceeded all expectations. Wyatt the Parasaurolophus is just stunning to behold! The sculpt is truly beautiful. The unique Parasaurolophus head is perfectly captured here. The bill and crest are sculpted with a keratin texture, but feature scaly flesh around the nostrils, possibly indicating an area of inflatable soft tissue. There are some fine scale details across the face, as well as some beautiful wrinkles. The neck is long and graceful, and is loaded with incredibly fine scales. The wrinkled skin is very lifelike here. The implied movement of the animal craning its head up and to the right is perfectly captured. There is one area of the sculpt that is of particular interest. There is a divot in the spine just past the shoulders. This would not be present in Parasaurolophus normally. However, this is not a mistake. PNSO based their figure off of a particular fossil that had a fractured vertebrae. (I believe it’s actually the holotype specimen. Correct me if I’m wrong.) While this is interesting, and it gives the figure character, I feel it would have been more educational to portray the animal without the damaged spine. One really great detail with the divot, however, is the way it is sculpted to look like a healed wound. A row of scute-like spikes runs along the spine from the base of the neck to the tip of the tail. The only place lacking those spikes is the indentation of the spine injury. The skin is also sculpted in a way that looks scarred in that area. It’s a wonderful bit of attention to detail. The sculptural detail of the body is near perfection. The pebbled scales are incredibly tiny, and densely packed on the skin. The occasional larger scales serve to break up the monotony of all the smaller scales. The amount of sagging, wrinkling, and stretching skin details is above and beyond anything you see on most dinosaur figures. The implied movement is incredibly well done, and insanely lifelike. There is also a real sense of weight with this figure, and that makes it easy to imagine Wyatt as a living beast. The legs are sculpted with excellent muscle definition. The minuscule scales from the body continue onto the legs also. The hoof-like feet are depicted here as well, and there are no avian foot scales to be found. The scales and skin wrinkle continue along the hind quarters, all the way down the length of the tail. There’s also a cloaca sculpted for sculptural realism. The coloration is highly naturalistic, and quite gorgeous too. The bright and colorful crest stands out beautifully from the rest of the figure. The crest and bill are given a slight gloss to really sell the keratin look as well. The vibrant blue eyes are striking, and really pop on the figure, giving it a great sense of life. They have a decent gloss on them as well to give them a wet look. The paint on the body is blended to perfection. This doesn’t look like paint. It looks like a genuine animal coloration. I particularly love the stripes along the back. They remind me very much of a Bongo, or a Kudu antelope, and they are applied with great care. This is another amazing offering from PNSO. Parasaurolophus is probably the most beloved of the hadrosaurs. There are lots of great, and not so great, figures of the animal on the market, and PNSO’s new release easily ranks as one of the best ever made. If you are a fan of Parasaurolophus, you owe it to yourself to add Wyatt to your collection!

Don’t mistake this for a Triceratops—Machairoceratops is a distinct and lesser-known ceratopsian, and PNSO has done a phenomenal job bringing it to life. The model features an elegant, scientifically-informed design with beautifully curved horns and a striking frill that sets it apart from more familiar species. The sculpting is top-tier, with intricate skin textures and dynamic posing that give it a lifelike presence. The paint application is subtle and realistic, enhancing the model’s display value without overwhelming its natural look. Pros: Unique species not often represented in model form High-quality sculpt and paintwork Excellent for collectors and educational displays Verdict: A standout piece for anyone looking to expand their ceratopsian collection beyond the usual suspects—PNSO’s Machairoceratops is a rare and beautifully executed addition.

I only order PNSO for my dinosaur models, as usual, this figure has insanely good quality, design, and detail. The stability is very questionable; it barely stands on its own and easily falls over to its right side. You definitely need to use the stand. I would like to see them improve this for their figures going forward. Not a big deal though, it looks great on the stand, I love the colors, and the accuracy of the anatomy is exceptional. Even the details inside the mouth aren’t overlooked, it’s perfect. Worth the money and I’m very happy!

The figure is very high quality and detailed, plus the poster is a nice touch. However the one I got had it’s toe and some of its head crest broken off. I’m not sure what happened to it but It’s the one thing preventing this from being perfect.

Modelo muito detalhista e bem pintado

Muy buena figura, con un detalle y cuidado que fascinan, te descuidas un poco y creerías que la piel es real, lo que ofrecen realmente vale la pena y no puedo esperar a volver comprar mas.

購入したのは去年になるので今更なレビューになります 初めはきいたことないメーカーさんでどうやら中国のメーカーらしく主に古代生物のフィギュアをだしてるとこみたいですね 肝心のフィギュアなんですが造形塗装共に凄く精巧にできており(口が開閉するギミックあり!)本体は意外とずっしりしています 二足歩行タイプのものは一部を除き台座なしでちゃんと自立するような考えられたポージングになっており一応透明なY字型の支柱がついてはいるのですがそれがなくとも十分にたたせることが可能です 本体ね値段が高いのと海外発送なので送料をいれると結構な価格にはなりますが興味あるかたは一体買ってみてはいかがでしょうか

Exquisite detail, good quality plastic and decent paint job, love the poster.
