257: PNSO Gorgosaurus (Tristan 2023) Review
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 сер 2023
- Right on the heels of Albertosaurus comes the other albertosaurine, Gorgosaurus! And what a gorgeous model this is!
The form, the sculpt, the pattern, and paint application and the pose all come together to give us something very interesting and unusual. The render really brings credit to this very important tyrannosaurid. The proportions are wonderfully as I have imagined Gorgosaurus for a long time. To have this dinosaur made flesh by PNSO is so pleasing a fashion, is a real pleasure indeed!

Now if we could just get a series of megaraptors or abelisaurus
I fully agree imagine majungasaurus and rajasaurus maybe like Cameron they remake the carno
As a huge abelisaurid fan I'd be over the moon to see some abelisaurs! A redo of Carnotaurus perhaps and making figures Majungasaurus, Rajasaurus, Pycnonemosaurus, Ekrixinatosaurus, or maybe even the infamous 'Thanos' lol
I would be immediately on the abelisaurids. I will camp outside the PNSO warehouse if they did 🤣🤣
That would be a dream!
Megaraptors? One would be enough. They’re so fragmentary that they would be clones.
This is, by far, the best PNSO figure in a long time. Even though it’s lipless and the teeth are pushing a boundary or two, the sculpt, pose and paint scheme make for a really beautiful representation. Ordering mine in about 2 seconds. Seriously, I can’t really see anything else wrong with this one.
You are most certainly going to love this in hand! Looks even better I'm sure!
One of the best theropod paint and pattern from PNSO
If _only_ there were some _other_ colour infused in there!
I was really exited when their Gorgosaurus was announced, and I’m so glad it didn’t disappoint.
It definitely didn't disappoint me! I am sure you'll be pleased with it to if you get this i your hands!
This is the most eye-pleasing and unique color-patterned therapod in this wave. This Gorgosaurus looks extremely beautiful and natural. And just as you said, my dear sir, if this is the last tyrannosaurid in this wave, what a beautiful way to surprise us. I really loved that science part and learned some new things, as usual. So thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us. Keep up the wonderful work, my dear sir. See you soon! ❤
Thank you as always!
Man I truly hope this is the last! We need to see more variety from PNSO, which is also a concern as I do hope they will do well. I don't know how this one-clade wave has impacted their sales. I think if they had spread things out such that each tyrannosaur was a special, people would have been inclined to buy more of them.
I finaly got my first PNSO Figures with Cameron and Logan and I really have to say, they look even better in hand as in any photo or video even tho you do the best to show these awsome figures. Its just such a difference to see and touch these fine details.
The Gorgosaurus also is just a beauty again. I really love how they implemented the red/orange on its brows.and the nasal.
I really would love to see an Edmontosaurus from PNSO, and especially a very large grown one too. Not just to get something other as a theropod (even tho its my fav clade) but also to have one extremly important member or the morrison formation too. And damn would a display with Cameron and an extremely beefy Edmontosaurus look cool.
For sure! Most video cameras won't have the dynamic range needed to capture all the subtleties in PNSO's paint apps, and the different lighting used by reviewers will always be different. And there's just something magical about having it in hand!
I would love an Edmontosaurus annectens from PNSO in 1:35!
Now this one I will be getting… the energy you brought in this video was great! We could tell you liked this one
Haha thank you! I most definitely did! Even my sorethroat couldn't stop me from speaking about this beauty! 😍
Got my gorgosaurus. It’s beautiful
It definitely is gorgeous! 😍
This will be my only purchase of PNSO's recent line of tyrannosaurs when it reaches Everything Dinosaur. It's beautiful and enough to tempt me away from my beloved herbivores for a change!
Yes that's always a problem I identified early on with PNSO insisting on releasing by clade. They all cease to be individually special, and people are going to just wait till all come out before choosing 1 or 2. It used to be when models were lot less predictable that each one was special. This one is a great one to get out of the entire wave! I would say Lythronax and perhaps Cameron if it's not too expensive for you.
Not Cameron - I just can't face another Tyrannosaurus rex in my collection@@DinosDragons! Lythronax is in the balance and certainly exerted some attraction.
Amazing.
It's a beauty all right!
I really like the coloration on this one, and the pattern. The blue and red on the head helps bring a rather nice splash of color to an otherwise conservative coloration. I wasn't too pleased with how the Albertosaurus turned out, so I am relieved with this one. I'm glad it's also one of their cheaper models. As far as comparisons go, I would have liked to see how it would have compared with some other Dinosaur Park Formation animals though (like PNSO's Styracosaurus, Centrosaurus, and/or their hadrosaurid trio).
Actually I have had quite a few viewers ask to show contemporaneous animals, and I will try to do that. My only concern is that it would make my videos even longer, stretching audience patience, so I've focussed on comparing only what seemed like close enough clade members.
The colour in this is pleasingly similar to the release images! Including that blue on the face. I was disappointed with the lack of green in the Albertosaurus 😔
@@DinosDragons New Subscriber here! I have been binging your reviews over the past couple days. I agree with @Faelrin. I would love to see comparisons with other animals that they would have lived alongside. Or perhaps you could do separate videos focused on the different formations. Nevertheless great reviews. I love all the scientific information you bring
the striping is incredible! this and the lythronax are the best of the medium-sized tyrannosaurs, and mainly due to the more unique colour palettes!
Yes for sure! I said I wished Lythronax was more to 1:35, but honestly when you have these all on the shelves their collective beauty just overwhelms you! 😁
Instant buy, I'm a sucker for Gorgosaurus, this is a beautiful model. Great job pnso, great job DinoDragons
Edit: I would like some feathers on this Gorgo, but sadly this is pnso, which means that there's not gonna be much feathers on the Tyrannosauruidae theropods...
Thank you for your comment! well for feathers, looks like the Dan's Dinosaurs one is the one for you! 😁
I think their Gorgosaurus is the best model among their mid-sized tyrannosaurids. Btw., I got my Daspletosaurus today and it's looks really good in hand. Some people didn't do the figure justice!
I have the Daspletosaurus too and I think is a very good figure
Yes actually it's been growing on me, and even though I still think there are oddities in the anatomy, enough people who know something have told me they think it's not egregriously off, so I'm good with it now too!
Hopefully after bistahieversor (which hopefully sports a nice colorscheme like gorgosaurus) we get some abelisaurs or spinosaurs (or even megaraptors!) Other unusual theropods like gigantoraptor are also welcome. In terms of herbivores, i would like to see either comtemporary ceratopsians/hadrosaurs/ankylosaurs to go with the recent wave of tyrannosaurs. A 1:35 sauropod is also never unwelcome
I would love to see a company make an affordable 1:35 scale argentinosaurus
@@Viper57546 considering the size, affordable would be very unlikely
@coltreptilia8648
Haha, "1:35 Argentinosaurus" and "affordable" would seem to be mutully exclusive! 😁 If anyone might, I believe it would be Ademar Pereira (you can check out my review of his 1:35 Patagotitan).
At this stage I would like to see _almost anything else_ other than a theropod from PNSO!
@@DinosDragons ahaha even as a theropod lover myself, i understand your sentiment! Ive heard rumors of an upcoming ceratopsian and sauropod
Best Gorgosaurus in the market today, I love the color scheme, the stripped pattern and the pose, I think the skull´s proportions are more adult than juvenile .Excellent review as always
Thank you! This one was a real pleasure to reveiw simply because of how much I loved the colour scheme!
WOW! im blown away by the detail and sculpt! i wish the colour was the same as the meraxes, but other than that this is so much better looking in video than the promo images IMO. Great review as always and wishing you the best :)
Thank you for your kind words! This is a really good one to end the Tyrannosaurids off on, but yes as you say, everything the same except the browns would have been a real bonus!
Excelente review! Tú brindaste datos muy interesantes 😮 Datos perfectos para una figura perfecta 🤩 Igual estoy muy feliz con esta ligera variación de la paleta de color sobre sus tiranosaurios ❤️ Estoy de acuerdo contigo! Gorgosaurus sería un buen cierre a la ola de tiranosaurios ✨
PD: I don't know if you made the spanish subtitles in this video but thank you ☺️🙌
¡Gracias por tu comentario! Y perdón por la respuesta tardía. No hice los subtítulos en español y no lo veo. ¡Desafortunadamente mi español es realmente pésimo y todavía estoy aprendiendo!
@@DinosDragons no te preocupes! Muchas gracias por responder en mi idioma, realmente lo aprecio! 🙏Tu español es muy bueno! 👏
Ugh! I was a definite pass on this one before watching your video (mostly due to no lips and no more space in my display area). But your review was so good (especially the science bit) that now I’ve changed my mind.
Hope you feel better soon. Stay well and thanks for what you do!
Hahah thank you! This model was so good I couldn't wait till after my sorethroat got better. Could have been better with a different colour palette. Hopefully PNSO will finally *get the memo* !
They legit need to begin a megaraptoran line, along with Cryolophosaurus and Dilophosaurus.
At this point, anything _other_ than a wave of the same clade would be a move in the right direction!
This might be the best of the recent deluge of tyrannosaurids from pnso. Good pose, excellent colors and pattern, and very little to complain about. If so inclined and the skills are present, you could add some putty to bulk up the daspletosaurus and have a really nice duo
Inclined yes, skilled no lol. I've often felt the limitations of never having gotten interested in modelling as a kid. Meanwhile other collectors are modding their figures left and right making them as close to their idea of perfect as possible!
I like the pose. Very gracious looking.
Definitely! Something dainty about it too!
Thank you for another great video. I was looking forward to seeing the PNSO Gorgo next to Papo's (I almost got Papo's at one point) just to see the size difference, but perhaps in another video!
I think PNSO did a great job with their Gorgo, the stripes really make a difference even though the colours are similar to the previous tyrannosaurids.
It's been a great run of tyrannosaurids so far, let's see what they bring next (herbivores please)!
Ah, unfortunately I don't have the Papo. In fact I'm not generally a fan of Papo. They started well with the Allosaurus, then somewhere down the line they quickly went down a dark path I couldn't/ wouldn't follow 😥
I second the _herbivore_ call! I am starting to suffer real theropod fatigue!
By far my favourite of the entire t rex line, shows how good pnso is at the whole "make dino look like living breathing animal ( even if its a drabber one)" haolonggood is good but esp in theropods not even close.
Allthough my headcanon was a jetblack gorgosaurus with yellow crest and white stripe tail.😂
There is something really special about PNSO that no other mass producing company can touch, IMHO. The animal just looks _real_ .
Beautiful stripey boy!
And oriented very beautifully and away from their usual!
PNSO must get a special deal on brown paint! That stated, I really do like the pattern on this beaut looking animal and love the orange undertones.
🤣🤣🤣 I almost start to believe that you could well be right!
Very nice skin pattern, but to be honest im kind of done with all the tyrannids. I would love some spinosaurid models or some herbivores for a change. Otherwise a good review, you always give all the information anyone would want about a model and the species.
Thank you very much! I try to include what I myself would hope to see in another review! 😁 I would hope that the wave is over or at least coming to a close, unless they give us another rarely rendered tyrannosaurid _and/or_ a different colour scheme like the Lythronax!
Again, I wish you had brought out the PNAO Nanotyrannus for comparison, especially since Nanotyrannus was first described as a Gorgosaurus species.
I keep forgetting that poor devil, sorry! 😛
A remake of their carnotaurus maybe???
I will be camping outside PNSO warehouse if that ever happens!!
Tristan is another W for PNSO, just wish one day they'll do theropods with lips
Overall amazing review, I hope you have a great day
I think they may try it in future. The weight of popularity is clearly leaning in that direction!
They’ve gone full lip now 😎😎😎
Interestingly, in Greek, “γοργός” (Gorgos) means fast or swift.
I am unsure where the definition of Gorgosaurus got lost in translation, but it definitely should translate to fast/swift lizard. Not Fierce/terrible.
I am very curious as to why this error exists or where it originated from.
Thanks for your comment again! Really helps to have a viewer knowledgeable in Greek. This puzzled me too the way that "δεινός" did. I am surprised though, that the original namers did not run it by native Greek speakers to make sure they had it right. But I was wondering if there was some kind of contextual shift that I was not aware of. Language has so many nuances that people who don't know it can often be lost because not everything is literal, and Greek is the hardest language I ever tried to learn!
Это очень красивый горгозавр!
Indeed it is!! 😍
I buy one.
You will love it I am sure!
More like gorgeousaurus amirite fellas?
Too right! 😁
I've wanted a good Gorgosaurus for SO LONG! Aside from the liplessness, it's near perfect. Needless to say, I'll be sending all of my PNSO Theropods off to a very talented artist who goes by Bravo Models to get some much needed lips added!
You are going to make Bravo Models very happy! At about USD$200 each (or so I heard) that's about USD$1400 🙌
@@DinosDragonshe gave me a quote of $40 each!
¿Vas a repintarlo? Vi que comentaste en el vídeo de Dacentrurus que tenías al Stegosaurus de PNSO repintándose. Sería genial ver análisis de tus nuevas figuras con ese nuevo estilo que les hayas querido dar 🤩 Muchas ganan con un nuevo patrón de color. Y seguro que este Gorgosaurus también mejora. Aunque, dentro de usar los mismo colores tierra que usan en la marca, han sabido darle un poco de "identidad" con el tono verdoso/azulado y anaranjado del rostro. La combinación de la elección de colores junto a la pose, me recuerdan inmediatamente a un ave. Una sensación muy agradable. Visto desde arriba, el patrón de las líneas oscuras del cuerpo es precioso 😍 Tengo muchas ganas de conocer con qué sorpresa nos sorprenderán en PNSO con su próximo producto... ¿Qué crees que vendrá? Bistahieversor podría hacerles compañía para terminar con este grupo. Un gran trabajo de documentación y análisis. Siempre es interesante y didáctico ver tus vídeos 😊🙏🏼
Jaja no, no puedo pintar nada. ¡De lo contrario, habría ahorrado dinero pintando mis modelos yo mismo!
Estoy de acuerdo con tus puntos sobre la pintura y el color. ¡Muy perspicaz!
Como ya sabes (perdón por mi respuesta tardía), Gorgosaurus fue el último tiranosáurido. Pero como ya sabrás, ¡el nuevo Yangchuanosaurus es hermoso!
PD: ¡Es más interesante aprender español leer comentarios como el tuyo!
@@DinosDragons Me alegra mucho saber que mis respuestas en español te ayudan a mejorar en el idioma. Tienes un nivel muy bueno 👏🏻🏆
The paint on this one looks absolutely amazing, but for some reason the pose just doesn't quite work for me. Personally hoping they make a Dryptosaurus for this wave, it's one of my personal favorites but sadly hasn't been made into a figure yet.
I would LOVE a Dryptosaurus! It might not be in 1:35, but could you imagine what might happen if PNSO decided to give us not one, but _two_ 1:35s, in the style of Charles R Knight's Leaping Laelaps!?? 😲😲
Just a note about standing ability - mine has stood for two days in SoCal heat without its stand! Same goes for my Cameron.
Two days is not enough to tell. You will need to give it a couple weeks. No harm not using the stand however. These are notoriously prone to warping over time. 😥😥
Since my first comment 4 weeks ago it still hasn’t need the stand. It’s either really well-balanced or I just got lucky with this one.
Pretty
Wow!
...
will you review the haolonggood megalodon?
To be honest, I wasn't thinking of getting it. I am not interested in Megalodon in general, and every one I've seen looks the same. 😔 Unless a company does one with some other proposed bauplan as has been the trend in recent years, I probably will save on this one.
J’ai remarqué que les dent du devant du crâne sont visibles chez les tyrannosaurine et pas chez les Albertosaurine
Did you mean from the side view?
they are all the same shades of fawn-brown and grey but in different dull patterns.
The colours I can't argue with. The patterns is pretty subjective. I absolutely love this.
well i didn't mean dull as a pejorative term, just noticing the obvious similarities in nearly all their theropods@@DinosDragons
2:45 2:48 The gorgosaurus Tristan just stepped on a piece of lego that left by some dudes while traveling in time to film a documentary :vv
Lol... piece of lego or piece of ..... 🤣
Honestly I found all of these newest Tyrannosaur family additions to be quite the let down.. as far as PNSO quality goes. The paint and patterns for the most part are pretty decent. However to me the figures seem a bit 'cheapened' as opposed to other PNSO tyrannosaur figures or even just a bunch of their theropod figures. For example, I dont think any of these new family members look nearly as good alongside the Zhuchentyrannus and the Qianzhousaurus. Those I regard as some of PNSO's very best work to date. The quality isn't the same overall here. The Gorgos crests aren't pronounced and there's something about the way the paint was applied to the face that makes the dinosaur look silly. I felt the same about Wally with all that glossy black paint around its eyes and mouth. They look awkwardly juvenile and derpy to me. LOL I did feel the heads of the prior 2 tyrannosaurs recently released looked a lot better. Just not enough to sell me on them. Sucks cause I love Daspleete as a dinosaur and I was really looking forward to one. Oh well. Next please
I think that it is clear that the ZT is one of their most beautifully produced theropods ever. You can see how well the colour just stands out. If you know how to repaint you'd be a lot happier. Since I can't paint to save my life I'm stuck with the colours unless I want to pay good money for repainting!
@DinosDragons Hey, it's cool of you to comment back! Your reviews are very in-depth and informative and you help me decide/confirm which models I'd like to pick up. I myself am also not very talented with paint either and don't have funds to have a professional paint over them for me. This was a really nice review though and I will say I think overall the Gorgosaurus looks the best out of the newly released tyrannosaursids. I do like the striping quite a bit on him.
if theropod had lips they would never evolved a f beak
I am not a fan of the Gorgosaurus figure the Papo Gorgosaurus is much better
Well you get to save money then! 😁
콧등이 좀 올라가야하는데 밋밋한게 아쉽다
I think if you really streeetch things it could still work, but if you're really into accuracy to the skull reconstruction, then it would be enough of a deal breaker for you!
Paint scheme is nice in quality but very boring at this point. Sadly a turn off for me.
Well at least you can save your money for a while!
@@DinosDragons I'm waiting for the Essien remake 😬
