261: Haolonggood (好龙谷) Carnotaurus Review Part 1

- Haolonggood is back again... with my 𝑓𝑎𝑣𝑜𝑢𝑟𝑖𝑡𝑒 dinosaur, Carnotaurus!
And what a delight this is. There are a few anatomical misses, but in general, it's very good. I especially like the more scattered appearance of the torso feature scales, which gets closer to the Hendrickx and Bell 2021 reconstruction than anything I have!

the thin caudofemoralis is a shame
Yes it's really quite inexplicable how that could have been missed!
A little thing to mention Dinosdragon its when i was in Argentina i asked about the hands of Carnotaurus and they told me this fella didnt had any claws or nails in the arms, outstanding video i really like it.
I would not be surprised! Except for that ungual on digit III which might arguably be something else. Thanks for the info.... Carnotaurus hands are of special interest to me!
Excellent review
Thank you for the compliment! 😁
Beautiful figure!
For sure! HLG really is getting on!
Un video excelente! A mí también me gusta más la versión gris, concuerdo con tu idea que el Carnotaurus gris resalta entre los terópodos de color café, además, esta figura puede parecer un Carnotaurus hembra en comparación con el Carnotaurus de PNSO. Por último, la variedad de tonos de color me parece un punto muy satisfactorio y además ¡me encanta la textura que tiene esta figura!
¡Gracias! HLG está mejorando dramáticamente. Espero que puedan llevar su precisión científica a un nivel más alto, especialmente para sus terópodos. ¡Pero ya puedes ver la mejora que han logrado desde su Allosaurus!
Sin lugar a dudas, una inesperada sorpresa de lanzamiento por parte de Haolonggood y una gran figura para todos los amantes de estos productos. En especial si te encanta Carnotaurus 🤩. Coincido totalmente contigo en que la representación de la piel debería ser menos exagerada mostrando las escamas, ya que en escalas de 1:35 serían totalmente inapreciables. Ojalá se utilice de ejemplo para futuros lanzamientos de esta y otras marcas para mejorar un poco más todas estas réplicas fantásticas. Esperando con gran ilusión la parte 2, amigo. Muchas gracias por tu profesional opinión y análisis 😊🙏🏼
En mi opinión, esta (sin ser una terrible figura como el allosaurus anterior), no está a la altura del carnotaurus de PNSO (a pesar de que necesita una actualización del escalado de la piel),... Haolonggood todavía tiene que mejorar mucho sus terópodos para llegar al standard actual de PNSO.
@paleo-logica365
¡Gracias por su cumplido! pero a decir verdad, no soy un profesional. Solo soy un entusiasta que está loco por la anatomía jaja.
También me gusta que los osteodermos no tengan colores diferentes. Como están debajo de la piel, ¡deberían tener el mismo color!
@JL-ux9dk
Estoy de acuerdo. La escultura y la pintura de PNSO están en un nivel diferente.
Además, HLG no parece seguir muy bien la reconstrucción científica. Esta es otra área en la que PNSO sobresale.
¡Realmente espero un Carnotaurus actualizado de PNSO!
@@DinosDragons Ese detalle sobre los osteodermos es algo a lo que pocas veces se le presta atención y estás muy en lo cierto. Hicieron bien en lo pintarlos 👍🏻
@@JL-ux9dk Ojalá PNSO se anime a un Carnotaurus al nivel de sus últimas figuras 🤞🏻
Great review as always! Will you get the Daspletosaurus too?
I think I will definitely get at least one of them, since I prefer their from than the PNSO morph. Don't know when they'll arrive though... my models have been arriving later than usual!
From a distance it looks really good. but I am not a fan of the painting on the eyes and the gap in the jaw is unfortunate. I think I will wait for another take. Especially since its so popular.
Well if you're not in a hurry, you might wait to see if PNSO does an update! Given how their jaws and lips have gone so far, I think they'll pull it off if anyone can!
Rebor has shown that you can give a theropod lips and a moveable jaw. I think they could have given it lips.
maybe the head was too small to give it lips, i think it's the same reason why their allosaurus didn't have lips
@@trashnoob96 kinda but pnso ironicly now made yangshuanosaurus with lips at almost same size
@@theimmortaleye7511yeah you're right, so there shouldnt be a reason to not give it lips other than personal preference. I personally don't mind the lipless look
@@trashnoob96 i personally am cool with lips or no , but haolonggood theropods have smth cursed with their current lipless faces
Both PNSO and Haolonggood have an upcoming lipped theropod at that size I think.
Yeah, I was gonna say the eyes do look cartoonish
I hope they fix it! It's really quite puzzling.
I honestly think this awesome Carnotaurus in the gray color does look similar to green in certain lighting, and due to its mixtures of colors I think it can be perfectly seen as a Lost World JP novel based version of the Carnos.
True! The lighting really makes a lot of difference.
I want to wish nothing but the best for Haolonggood, because they are the breath of fresh air to our toy figure community. I love this figure, but still, Haolonggood has a long way to go when it comes to their theropods. For me, the only downside is their head sculptures in theropod figures. They look so artificial and cartoonish. But the overall quality of the figure is so mesmerizing. I would like to know one thing from you, my dear sir. In Carnotaurus fossils, their horns look blunt. But in PNSO, the horns look so sharp, and the point is down-curved. But this Haolonggood horn looks a bit more accurate. So which version is the most accurate? Down-curved, sharp horns or blunt, pointy horns? Either way, I like both versions. And for me, the best Carnotaurus figure out there is that 'Darknix Prehistoric Life Carnotaurus sastrei' figure. That figure is a work of art. I'm sure you'll buy it if you see it.😉Thank you so much for this wonderful review, my dear sir. You are the best in the business. Keep 'em coming. ❤
Thank you for your comment as always! HLG has definitely shown a lot of promise, but it's a puzzle why they couldn't base some of their skulls on skeletals that are freely available, especially for something like Allosaurus.
As for the Carnotaurus skull, view from the back there seems to be a downturning, so if you assume keratin build up as vizualised by Witton, it's possible to imagine it turning down even further. However it is not too clear to me if it might actually have been straight, and sadly we only have one specimen. Still given the direction the horns of modern animals can take on across species, I'm not too defnite in my beliefs or preferences.
As for sharp or blunt, it really depends on the overlying keratin, so I can't say for certain. Perhaps like in nature nothing is pinpoint sharp, but I believe it would be sharp enough for whatever it used them for, and if there was trauma or combat, possibly worn down to some bluntness.
Quite gorgeos , im curios if this is "tue current definitive carno" ? Since others are either more outdated or lacking😅
Carnotaurus is among the most famous prehistoric animals, and this model has several flaws, so no, I don’t think this is the definitive Carno. Pretty sure at some point a better version will be released. FWIW, the BotM will be such a version…
I think overall, it should suffice until you're really crazy about Carnotaurus. For me, the hands are still an issue, and the caudofemoralis bulk is just impossible to overlook. If you're a real stickler, perhaps you could wait to see if PNSO updates its Carnotaurus. I for one am looking forward to that!
나도 회색으로 구매했는데 비율도 예쁘고 마음에 든다
In general it really is a pity nice little figure! 🙂
Nice figure but probably i prefer the collecta deluxe one if i have to choose a cheap figure.
Yes that _is_ quite a nice figure too! Wanted to pull the trigger a few times, but the hands stopped me.
He has Smool arms
Smal and useless! 😁
Well, as I always say, until we find a mummy of a Therapod we will know the truth, if they had lips or not
Hahaha. Indeed. Till then I really feel people should just be open-minded and enjoy the hobby! 😁
