Spinosaurus Aegyptiacus

So, the banner at the top of the DTF website has the images of six 2013 releases. Which models coming out in 2014 should replace the current pictures?
My vote:
Papo Dilophosaurus, CollectA Carcharodontosaurus and Icthyovenator, Safari Monolophosaurus, Papo Archaeopteryx, and probably one of the ceratopsians- but I don't know. There are so many great relases this year.

I'd try to keep it fair and choose one model from each of the popular companies.

I choose: Papo Archeopteryx, CollectA Gastonia, Carnegie Tyrannosaurus, Safari Pachyrhinosaurus, Bullyand Lambeosaurus, and Schleich Pentaceratops.

I didn't necessarily pick models that were my absolute favourites, but I tried to go for diversity to represent the different points of view of our forum and its members 8)

..Okay, that's thinking too deep into it :-[

Neither set of selections includes a marine animal nor mammal.....
Authors with varying competence have suggested dinosaurs disappeared because of meteorites...God's will, raids by little green hunters in flying saucers, lack of standing room in Noah's Ark, and palaeoweltschmerz—Glenn Jepsen

Tough call...let's see.

Papo Dilophosaurus , Carnegie Rex, Bully Lambeosaurus, Collecta Mosasaurus ,Carcharodontosaurus , and Arsinoitherium / Quetzalcoatlus  .  I know I listed seven but I think CollectA is the only company making a nice marine reptile, mammal and pterosaur next year.   CollectA should probably get the majority this year at least.

I dont really have a suggestion to be sure. I made a few last year and they placed past in the voting so I learned my ideas of banner design are not that great. I was just making an observation for what it might be worth.
If I designed the banner it would have an amagasaurus in the center flanked by rows of psittacosaurus on each side !!!

i think the forum might consider placing a few pieces from our shapeways artists up there as well..........perhaps a Krentz chubby? I know all of our shapeways artists have released a load of new work this past year.

I'm keen to include the ammonite  8) something a little different.

By the way, Here are all the banners from previous years, for inspiration...

I think CollectA will be the hard one to pick from. So much goodness.

Here is my idea

from left to right

Papo Dilophosaurus

Safari Ammonite

CollectA Bistaheversior (Because we should include a Feathered Tyrannosaur for a change)

Bullyland Lambeosaurus

Carnegie T.Rex

Schleich Pentaceratops.


That's one figure from Every major brand/line
