168: PNSO Triceratops (Doyle 2021) Review
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 гру 2021
- Finally! PNSO is not just back, but also giving us the long-awaited Triceratops!
The quintessential representative ceratopsian, Triceratops is the name and face that will always be symbolic of the horned dinosaurs. Over the decades, it has held on to its popularity, albeit with many updates, and many of these updates present here in the new 2021 Doyle the Triceratops!
A delight especially for those who follow the twists and turns of this iconic dinosaur, in terms of theory and postulated anatomy, this Triceratops combines PNSOs usual balance of sculpt detail, paint application and scientific rigour to give us something that will likely be as controversial as its improved Wilson the 2020 T Rex!
Let the thoughts, ideas, and opinions begin!

Fantastic review as always. It’s great to see these figures in hand so soon from you, and you talk about them in such a passionate yet welcoming manner, all while introducing me to new ideas that I may have missed. Appreciate your work!
Thanks mate! I'm glad always to meet a fellow enthusiast who's also into the science of things. This one was very easy to get passionate about. Triceratops being one of the big three favourites from childhood years (the other two being T Rex and Brachiosaurus). Just the Charles R Knightesque pose is enough brings me back to when I was a child of nine looking through picture books.
By the way, speaking of nine, 9 more days of Christmas right? 😁
Love the discussion on cheeks. PNSO are the best in the world. I adore their paleo sculptures not only for the art of it but I'm only interested in the animals being anatomically correct. Which PNSO pride themselves with. I love love love your research on each animal this makes your channel the best out there. I look forward to hearing you explain the different possibilities. Keep up the good work. I'm sure one day you will have your own TV series. X
@Ashley Artus Thank you for your kind words! I am fortunate to have viewers like you who also enjoy the science part of dinosaurs which is a passion of mine that I want to share. As to TV series, however, there are many many people who know far more than me, and they are already running full paleontology channels. While a nice idea, there are many things involved with getting a series running, some of which would take away the enjoyment I have doing these videos 😁
PNSO indeed goes from strength to strength and if you have seen the latest PNSO Torosaurus review, you'll see they've improved on even _this_ Triceratops! If you liked this Triceratops, I think you'll love that Torosaurus. And then you'll have to struggle with which one to get lol.
and i love that sometimes they visit some little known ideas and bring them up to the public for example the skull of their torvosaurus which is a bigger adult version of the subadult specimen, elvis (the skull of which is having similar shape with pnso torvosaurus with crests that look like carnosaur crests but the difference is that its snout is narrower but its subadult and as we know so far some theropods developed from slender to more tall snouts) something that not many people know
Man seeing this model in hand really makes me like this! I also love the addition of a skull coming with it. Whilst I believe that the colour scheme could've been a bit more interesting, I still like what we got and I really loved the sculpt
Definitely there is a simple elegance to not having too many colours, and if you're going for realism doubly so considering the size of this animal! Some days I am happy with it as is, some days I think of getting it repainted 😁
Beautiful figure, outrageous price. I would like to have it, but time will tell. Already have Eofauna's, and although Eofauna is always number one to me, the pose of this one pleases me better. Maybe next year brings me a lot of money (if i'll succeed in my new project), and i can join an Horridus to my collection. Great review, as always.
Thank you Antônio!
Indeed if you have the EoFauna, then you would be very happy with that. It's a specific Triceratops specimen (and potentially new species) so to me that's always extra special, just like Borealopelta is based off one very definite specimen. The money you save you could use to repaint the EoFauna if you find the original paint scheme atrocious 😀
What a FANTASTIC and Informative review! Hats off to you Sir!
Thank you very much! Glad you liked it! 😀
"Hey babe, new DinosDragons video just dropped"
Fantastic work as always! And a stellar model too. PNSO often manages to imbue their models with a good amount of character (their Tarbosaurus and Torvosaurus, for example) and this model is no different, giving the impression of a grumpy elder that one would be wise not to anger. Given the ambiguity of whether AMNH 5116 is Triceratops or Torosaurus, I was on the fence about this model, but now I'm leaning more towards wanting it. Keep it up! I'm hoping PNSO reveals the rest of their rumored figures (especially the Acrocanthosaurus and Centrosaurus).
Thank you very much! I really find myself enjoying these models clearly based on a specific individual very much, giving them a kind of unique spirit. The PNSO Parasaurolophus, Borealopelta and Parasaurolophus struck me the same way.
Centrosaurus is such an important ceratopsian, and yet I don't even have a single one, so to get a PNSO take on it would be amazing. I am sure they will bring to bear their usual skill and aplomb and do this dinosaur justice. Still on ceratopsians... I don't know if you're a fan of Torosaurus, but if you are I have a sneaking suspicion that we will both be very happy next year 😁
Of course an accurate Acrocanthosaurus without exaggerated spines would be very much welcome. I don't have a single accurate one of this genus!
@@DinosDragons Likewise! I hope they make more of these kinds of models, maybe a Gorgosaurus based off Ruth, with all its pathologies. Endless possibilities.
Agreed, especially since it's so well known with so many well-preserved specimens. Surprising that only Creative Beast has made a decent one so far (and that one costing me an arm and a leg, if I was interested in buying it). And like you said, PNSO will hit another homerun, and it'll be yet another definitive representation under PNSO's belt.
Curses, I forgot to mention Torosaurus 😅 Honestly that might be the one I'm most excited for. I sure hope you're right 😁 And here I thought my only option would be the car-sized (and priced) Creative Beast one with the apocryphal keratinized frill.
Yep, despite how many there are, none of them quite hit the mark. I recently bought the Papo one, and it is probably the best one on the market. It really is a beautiful model, giving the impression of a Hellenistic sculpture, and being pretty close to the actual animal, but let down by some shrink-wrapping and fluky proportions. Its arms are about twice as long as they should be, and while the whole model is about 1/35 scale, its head alone is 1/30 scale! 😫 so close yet so far. And of course, here comes PNSO making me regret ever even considering it 🙄
A fossilized skeleton of a Triceratops discovered in a private land in Montana, and it's on display at the Melbourne Museum in 2022 and nicknamed "Horridus", the Mona Lisa of Dinosaurs.
Wow... I'll check it out online. Thanks for the tip! I wish I was there now!
Wow you got that fast!! I hope mine shows up soon, too.
Thanks for another excellent review. Exactly how I was hoping you’d handle this one!
You're most welcome Michael! This was a highly delightful model for me to review and enjoy, and there is really so much to say about this iconic dinosaur. In fact to many people it is _the_ dinosaur! This video could have been at least twice as long and I tried real hard not to do that lol.
I hope you will enjoy yours when it arrives. A most well-deserved Christmas present I'm sure! 😁
Another breathtaking piece. Just beautiful.
Yes it is! In fact I think the very simple pose has more impact than if they've gone with something a lot more dynamic and contorted. There's a beauty in simplicity that forces real quality, since there is no place to hide!
This was a great review and also the new Doyle is very awesome.
Also I wish y'all a great day
Thank you! Doyle is awesome indeed!
I was waiting for this one, now it was released and you my friend, made the right review with the right angles of this figure ...thanks so much for show me my bext purchase....so far the BEST TRICERATOPS IN THE MARKET....AND IT HAS TO BE MINE...!!!!
Haha thank you very much, I am glad you found my review useful! I try to do my videos in a way that I imagine myself to want to watch them if I wanted to know the model, and help me make a decision. Very sorry for making you spend money though 🤣
The way you focused attention in your videos about an specific model is the right one and is the main resource to buy this or that dinosaur....You're doing a great job man....
it doesn't matter if the video is 20 minutes long or 2 hours long, I'll never skip your videos. I watched this video yesterday and I was speechless. So it took me another day to collect my thoughts and comment. About this Triceratops figure, I think this is the most amazing figure I've ever seen. I don't have that many prehistoric toys/ figures. But this may be the best figure for sure. Even though the color is a bit dull (for me) and the price is so high, the sculpt work is so amazing. With this figure, I think the Torosaurus, Triceratops debate will continue for the time to come. Either way I'm in love with this amazing, detailed, perfect, and beautiful video lesson. Thank you so much for this my dear Sir. Please keep up the good work. ❤
Thanks as always Rajitha! Although I realise some people would really just want to look at the model so it's a little unfair to make them sit through the entire video. So I hope this new format - model first, science later - makes more sense and matches to what most people would like.
Now... Torosaurus, that's a really interesting idea, though I personally never really bought into that. I've always had a deep impression of the crazy frill of the Torosaurus, and I would love to see one from PNSO that would definitely show that at least, in this line, they are unequivocally two dinosaurs! 😁
Excellent review as always, so meticulous, at first I wasn't keen on this new Doyle but after your review I've realised how much work has gone into it's design 👍
Thank you! Triceratops is one of those dinosaurs that it would be easy to talk about another ten minutes but then I'd alienate 90% of my viewers 🤣 But indeed, one of my motivations for doing my videos is to help people make a decision, or if they already own a model, appreciate it even more 😊
Seriously considering putting a preorder for this piece. Those head details are just exquisite.
It is indeed! PNSO really does very well with their sculpting. Check out my latest PNSO Torosaurus review. That model is even _more_ intricately detailed, if that's possible!
i mean about the long horns thing its true that it would have prevented low browsing but triceratops was a big animal, it would eat ferns and stuff so it's head would not be touching the ground when eating those and horns would still be in the air
maybe this is the reason why young specimens have backward facing horns, because of their small size they eat plants closer to the ground so the horns need to not be in contact with itand as they grow and eat bigger plants there is no longer danger for them to touch the ground or anything and would still be perfect weapons/display structures
whatever the case this is sure a high quality accurate depiction of triceratops that i must get, im waiting to see if aliexpress will have sales on christmas so i get it cheaper, but if not its ok i will get it with the original price
btw i thought doyle was female? idk if im wrong though
I like your logical thinking! It's the kind of ability to imagine that is so valuable especially today when everything seems to be delivered in overwhelming waves. 😊
Doyle is a surname name of Irish origin. So it could probably be both. As a first name I believe it's more commonly male though I may be wrong. Something along the lines of "Dark Foreigner". Actually I wish I'd remembered to make that mention, because this is obviously a dark paint application and the name is appropriate.
@@DinosDragons i thought the model was female and that was the reason this triceratops doesnt have any bright colors (and good excuse for pnso to produce it quickier which is accepted by me as long as the pattern is unique with the brown realistic colors)
Hooray! Long awaited review! Too bad my limit for Christmas gifts has been reached.
There's always your birthday! 🤣
I just got mine and I cannot be happier with it ^^ it looks so lifelike
It really does! It's painted so naturalistically that the lack of flamboyance doesn't do it any harm, particularly if you appreciate realism! 🙂
I love how fast you are! Hopefully you’ll have a review of the recently announced Iguanodon soon 😏
Haha we'll have to see about that 😉
Really congratulations for this new entry in your collection, your review is excellent as always, especially the scientific part of the video.
Personally I love this new Doyle and I would like to have it in my PNSO collection but the price is too high at the moment so I will wait for the next discounts on aliexpress :)
Thanks for your support as always! I appreciate it when viewers like the science part of my videos as it is not anyone's cup of tea and most would just want to look at it. I am trialling this new format of putting most of the science behind which I think will work for everybody.
I think that's a good choice to wait for discounts. One of my China friends reckons that the trend seems to be sales for same digit dates, meaning no longer just 11.11 but 12.12, 1.1 and so on, which means that you won't have long to wait! 😁
Nice! thank you for this review
You are most welcome. Thank you for visiting one of my older videos! 😁
An excellent review. As always.
I think this model is awesome, controversies aside (but certainly less controversial than the 2020/2021 Tyrannosaurus rex, 'Wilson', the reconstruction of its head being the main point of contention). I am very much in favour of the PNSO-esthetics in this model, as well as most of their other recent models. A real beauty, in my eyes, this one. Somehow it gives off a vibe of real life power, weight and massive size. More so than the old 'Doyle' Triceratops. (Maybe that is why I don't own that model.) The very sturdy legs are certainly one of the main reasons for that feeling. To me this is an esthetically very pleasing model, mostly because of the fact that it looks so very much like a real living animal. Triceratops may well be my favourite dinosaur, at least for now, when looking at this representation by PNSO ;-)
As a sidenote, I prefer simplistic, low-key paint schemes, like in this model, because they are neutral and leave room for imagination. Also, I think it is the more scientifically correct way to do it when we (still) don't know what bright and/or contrasty color schemes the animal had - if it had them at all. (Kind of a same discussion as those about lips on Tyrannosaurus rex and other theropods.)
Good point JB. In addition the realism, there is a kind of simple elegance that the sculptors are forced to bring out, which garish, gaudy or even well-done paint applications can cover up. Given a choice between an excellent sculpt and a plain (though still layered) paint scheme, and excellent paint scheme on a terrible sculpt, it's the former for me.
I agree with you on the thickness of the legs. When you look at pictures of the skeletal mounts, there is a robustness that is all but proclaimed in the limb bones, and it's one thing that I didn't like about the EoFauna (besides the paint scheme of course).
Thank you for your thoughtful comment!
I was looking forward to your thoughts on this figure as soon as I saw the preorders go up on Dan's Dinosaurs. I do wish the paint application was a little closer to the photographs but overall I think it's a lovely figure. I certainly like it a lot better than the old Doyle. Triceratops is my daughter's favorite, so how can I say no? :)
I first learnt that depth of colour like in the release photos even in one general colour comes from a lot of layers only when I was privileged to have models painted by artists like Martin Garratt and Jay Carriere. I'm sure Zhao Chuang applied the same care and skill to his model too, which makes it way more complex than the mass produced sculpts. Yet I've also been astounded by the work PNSO is still able to apply to these manufactured models. And their models than sell (at least in China and Asia) for the same price as a Safari or CollectA.
Triceratops was in my top 3 when I was a little kid too, the other being T Rex and Brachiosaurus. And yes, you can't say no to a child who wants a Triceratops! 😀 If you get the PNSO, there is plenty of supplementary material to keep her learning and entertained for quite a while!
Great video! Is there a comparison between this and Rebor’s Triceratops?
Thank you! Unfortunately not, I don't have the Rebor Trident.
Very well done!
Yes it is definitely an amazing model! Very happy to have this updated Triceratops to go with my Wild Safari and EoFauna ones!
This I must get! I liked the original Doyle but I'm all for updated designs! Can't wait for what PNSO are going to pump out 2022!
The only thing I can say to that, is you'd better save your money! It's going to be one hell of a ride! 🤣
@@DinosDragons Sensible advice! I don't buy every model that comes out, I only purchase models that feature in some form of animated media for my silly reviews 😁.
I' am hyped up about what PNSO are going to be releasing next year. Hopefully my wish list will be complete, you never know!😂
I thought their review was pretty epic and see an updated version of Doyle was pretty good and I love it's longer horns, *epic* .
Yes those long horns are a very interesting decision. Though of course not as long as EoFauna's trike!
Awesome review! Looking at it in purely scientific accuracy, which would you say would be the best model to get, the PNSO, Safari, Eofauna or Collecta 2023 Triceratops?
Sorry for the late reply! I would say that given the variations in the various fossils we have, there is always leeway for slightly different proportions.
PNSO is based on AMNH5116, one of the most famous specimens. So you have one that is clearly intended to follow very closely a fossil we already have. It also has the really fine skin integument with the updated features found in skin impressions.
EoFauna is based on the Yoshi specimen, as you can tell from the horns. you can look at my comparision video for more.
Safari is a good model but the details are very rough by today's standards. Definitely worth getting just one the price alone. Doug Watson's sculpts are already modelled to a high level of accuracy, especially quadrupeds.
CollectA is disappointingly huge, with details that go with that increased size. But focussing on just accuracy it's generally ok. Not spectacular. It has those speculative quills CollectA gives to all its ceratopsians, which have not been found in any of the skin impressions we have of Triceratops.
I love the retro look of this trike, the way they would illustrate triceratops in the 50s and 60s
Definitely! It brings back fond memories of childhood when I first discovered these books by finding books published in the 70s and 80s in the library!
Super beautiful model! I have Eofauna triceratops, which is still really good figure, but colour scheme is too extreme for me. So I am so glad that PNSO made this figure with natural look colour scheme!!
Yes EoFauna's Yoshi is such a splendid animal, yet I can't understand their choice of colour scheme! They went from the bland Giganotosaurus to the subtle Atlasaurus and then went straight to the other extreme!
Along with the Tarbosaurus, this is without a doubt, one of the best figures PNSO has released. Absolutely in love with it. Great review as always DD!
Thanks Shay! Tarbosaurus was really a shocker for me, being totally unexpected when announced, and then when we see what a hefty beef yet with those fine scales on a tyrannosaur... well there's really no question that your statement is 100% true... truly one of the best. And this one too.
I'm pretty excited that PNSO seems to releasing updated versions of some of the most iconic/ historic/ popular dinosaurs. Next is the Iguanodon. Though they sure are making us wait for the plesiosauroid!
Wonderful!!!!
Thank you! By the way your name reminds me, I'm still looking for a nice affordable Ghidorah to review lol!😁
I think curved horns would’ve been better, and certainly wouldn’t have prevented any defensive capabilities. Buffaloes have curved horns but they’re still a formidable weapon against lions.
Also great review as always! 😃
Thank you!
I often wondered that more prey items never learnt to band together, especially if they were weaponized. If they were to stand shoulder to shoulder against predators, instead of just scattering to the winds, there would be a lot more safety not to mention casualty among predators.
This is nice ! Yet I'll prefer the Eofauna trike just for the cost actually. Very detailed and excellent review as always !❤️
The Eofauna models are Triceratops prorsus, where I'm certain that this model is T. Horridus. They're apparently 2 different species of Trikes.
@@robtilianhorror6842 the Eofauna Trike is actually an unnamed Triceratops species based on the Yoshi’s Trike specimen. Great figure though, still my favorite Triceratops model.
Thank you Sayan! The EoFauna is a very good model and to me it's special because it could potentially be a new species of Triceratops. I like models that are based on a specific individual, such as the PNSO Parasaurolophus and Borealopelta.
In fact if you are very happy with the EoFauna, the money you save could possibly be used for other offerings, and PNSO definitely has some coming soon!
@@DinosDragons If PNSO is indeed releasing a "true" Torosaurus, I'll happily save up to get that one instead of Doyle. Although I also do like models that are based on specific specimen, which makes Doyle still quite interesting to me. I'd like to count Wilson among them as well by the way.
@@srfschulein That's amazing!! I don't know where I heard that it was the other species. That's cool that it's based on a specific specimen, I like it when companies do that.
Woww amaxing
This is the one !!!
Haha I knew this would be polarizing! Some people think exactly that, while others think No Way! 😂
@@DinosDragons yeah....l know...but if this figure can cause the polarization of opinions, is simply because is THE REAL ONE.....Thanks for your great reviews they always lead me to the most atractive pieces in the market....
Hello, I’m just wondering if Dan’s dinosaurs ship to the UK?
Dan's Dinosaurs ships internationally. For the UK though, most people order from Everything Dinosaur. Both of them are really good, but shipping-wise it makes more sense for you.
@@DinosDragons yeah, I use everything dinosaur a lot, just that some figures they don’t have in stock and Dan does or Dan has figures that everything dinosaur don’t sell.
@@Benr078 Ah I see. I thought you were referring to this specifically, and Everything Dinosaur definitely carries PNSOs. I'm sure Dan ships internationally, though you might want to check with him regarding shipping.
PNSO is back to empty our pocket lol.Trik is my favourite ceratopsian.But if they made a........Brachiosaurus........I thought PNSO is adding seems again😅
I can't see how they would be able to do a model without seams if they create a Brachiosaurus and _especially in the __1:35__ scale I think we all want_ as it will probably be hollow PVC to make financial sense, but no less great as we have seen from the PNSO Huanghetitan.
Though of course following their Mamenchisaurus, all very big animals maybe get the 1:45 treatment instead, and by then hopefully smaller animals will have improved seam lines!
@@DinosDragons 😯
This one or eofauna one? I have only the eofauna and seems better...at a much lower price...
Have a look at my video where I talk about the two!
ua-cam.com/video/EuenLaPU8wc/v-deo.html
Where can I buy this tho? Online
Which country are you in? Generally Amazon or Dan's Dinosaurs if you're near the US, or EverythingDinosaur if you're next the UK.
A textura , a imitação da pele, os detalhes , tudo muito lindo .... Mas será que a boca realmente era assim sem bochechas nenhuma ? Como faziam para beber água sem bochecha ??? Era igual aos cachorros ???
Good question! The drinking part I suppose would be like most lipless lizards, although of course without cheeks less efficient. If it could find sufficiently deep water, I suppose it could have parly stuck its snout in. I'm afraid I never ever researched drinking mechanics and cheeks, but perhaps I should in future! I'm only interesting in eating mechanics 😁
禽龙也快发售了
哈哈那个我知道。真的期待已久了, 而且还是 1:35 的比例呢！真的希望 PNSO 会再次出一些 1:35 的蜥脚类恐龙。我觉得 1:45 的马门溪龙实在是太小了 ☹
O estiracossauro da Pnso ficou bem legal pois tem bochecha apesar da boca grande
It does indeed look like it has more cheek than the Triceratops for sure. I think the jaw articulation and the necessary seams make the cheekless look worse than it would otherwise be if there was no articulation.
Hmm I wonder if Triceratops and Torosaurus could have hybridised
Lol who's to say! Indeed, with so many variations now being considered the same animal, or so close as to probably be indistinguishable except for a handful of bony features, you never know! Even extant animals of different species have in freak circumstances mated and borne offspring.
Does it comes with a skull????
Yup it does! Exactly as you see in the video 😁 I hope they do this for some other dinosaurs in future!
@@DinosDragons me too😁
The horns do look like they would get in the way when grazing but perhaps they would be less of a problem if Triceratops was a browser, using its beak to snap through branches.
Indeed! That's what it probably did. Then again who's to say that as the horns grew, what it ate changed according to what it could reach as well. That's what I do! 😁
i think it would be more browser...i mean i dont expect this behemoth to feed by tiny vegetation on the dirt i imagine it feeding from the biggest ferns of hell creek
멋지다 무조건 구매해야겠다
I am sure PNSO will be delighted to hear that! 😁
Where can I buy him?
Depends on where you are. If you are in or near the US, try Dan's Dinosaurs or PNSO's Amazon store. If you are in or near UK, the Everything Dinosaurs.
@@DinosDragons I live in Canada.
The head just doesn't look right for me, and from the front it just looks depressed with the downward facing position and long horns, which I think are my main problem as they make the head look too big for the model, hopefully they release another more "traditional" style, although a Styracosaurus would definitely go down a treat!
I think it's not likely they'll revisit Triceratops for a while. They have a full docket already, and let's just say if you don't like this one and save your money, there are enough to make you cave to one of them, coming along 😉
I still prefer Safari's 2018 version unless I'm missing something
Not at all. Personal preference. I like Doug Watson's sculpt so much that if I can save the money I might get it repainted in an application worthy of its quality. CollectA and Safari Ltd have had some excellent sculpts let down only by paint application. Undestandable given the price point, and excellent option for those who can do their own paint work.
Fun fact: female triceratops did not the have the colours on its frill so it’s probably an adult female and the other Triceratops is an subadult male
Honestly, this is probably my least favorite triceratops model. It looks very weird looking I don’t know how to describe it like it doesn’t have those cheeks like we see in other figures, at least comes with a Skull
Did you watch the later part where I talk about Nabavizadeh's paper?
@@DinosDragons I think so
Pnso version more looks like torosaurus
Especially with that frill!
@@DinosDragons yes.
thats because amnh 5116 like its said in the video is very controversial and likely torosaurus that has the frill holes filled with plaster
but even then it doesnt matter, the only thing that changes is the name not the figure after all torosaurus has pretty crazy individual variation like dinosdragons shows the pnso torosaurus review
so i think if its torosaurus it still fits as a female with the new torosaurus since its a more brown simple color with smaller frill while their torosaurus has bigger frill with more vibrant colors and the light grey with the pinkish bedge on the belly is totally not as simple as doyle
so even if someone gets it they dont lose anything to be honest as i said again only the name changes
@@firegator6853 Indeed I believe that the figures are such that anyone can enjoy them in their own way. I do think there are different collectos. Many want a representative dinoaur with all the model autaporphies, so I try to talk about them for this group of collectors, since those that do care are those most likely to watch the science part of the videos anyway. Otherwise, really we should just take any interpretation we want, and those who aren't comfortable with anything major could save their money and wait for something more to their liking comes along. Or they could spend a bit to modify the figure, which many artists are now offering as a service.
I’m so mad that this is 80 dollars
It's really criminal what all the extra shipping, taxes, middlemen etc adds to the base price of this model. I wish that could all be reduced.
@@DinosDragons no…it’s 80$ on aliexpress without shipping or any extra costs. I think it’s u fair that it’s 80$ considering that figures of the same size and quality are only 30$. They can just make it more expensive because they label it as “museum series”
I’m still buying it cus its an a,along figure but there’s plenty of pnso figures just as good as it who aren’t 80$.
@@starbirds2464 I'm not sure where Aliexpress ships from, but if it's China then they have definitely added in ridiculous middle man charges. Consider that the selling price for the Triceratops is ¥229, which translates to about USD$36. Comparable to EoFauna Triceratops which sells for USD$30 from Dan's Dinosaurs. So PNSO cannot be blamed for what costs the middle men layer on. Seems a ridiculous amount if it's USD$80.
@@DinosDragons nah I bought from aliexpress before and it’s a normal 30 or 40 bucks for most figures with no extra charge but the triceratops is 80$ on aliexpress
@@starbirds2464 Guess you'll just have to get the answer from your seller. Seems very strange.
