    It needs to be said how much of a godsend your videos are to paleoartists. My work has improved greatly because of things that I’ve learned in your videos that I consider every time I draw a dinosaur now. Whenever I draw a dino you’ve done a video on, I watch it while I work and it comes out better than I could believe. Love love love your content, keep up the amazing work!

    Nice lot of old Procon/Collecta toys at 5:30; those are all from around 2007-2009. Collecta has come a long way since then!
    Yes, the yellow round-headed theropod would be the Gigantoraptor; despite being an oviraptorid, I've rarely seen this genus depicted with a crest.
    13:00 I wouldn't be surprised if the skeletal mount spurred the art meme. There's also a notable painting by John Gurche which that sticker seems to specifically be imitating.
    14:20 Is that "Albertosaurus" a knockoff of the old Wild Safari Gorgosaurus?? That would be a new one.
    18:55 okay that little take-apart pterosaur is hilarious!
    21:18 Ooh! I had a few of those armored dinos! I always figured it was Edmontonia or a similar (it does resemble the Battat Edmontonia).
    31:55 SAME; what philistine would say such accursed things?! *lol*
    32:35 Arthropleura was a millipede relative from the Carboniferous, and it was the size of a man. BBC's 'Walking With Monsters' and 'Prehistoric Park' featured it briefly.
    That Velociraptor plush has to be the single most impressive item that's ever been featured in a mailbag video.

    They copy eachother by making three molds (two if they just alter the dino and make a master from that) Cut the first mold in half (if it's rubber or silicone) spray a release, put it back together, and pour wax in. Take the resultant wax cast and subtlety change it like bending its tail, make a second mold of the new and improved, cut, clean and release spray then save that as a master to cast another dino to make a set of the third molds for production.

      The only problem is that because they're both an obscure and relatively recently formed clade, there's next to no models of them. The only one I can think of is the Australovenator from Australian Age of Dinosaurs, but that's so sought after that it's worth holding onto rather than sending in (plus it's pretty anatomically sound).
      But yeah, they are really cool and I hope more companies start making figures of them.
