Jurassic World Apatosaurus Dinosaur Figure Revealed From Mattel

[JayC]

Shown below are images that come via the overseas etailer Smythstoys of the upcoming Jurassic World Apatosaurus dinosaur figure from Mattel. According to the package this one will measure around 41.3" long. According to the overseas retailer this will be out later this month. No word yet on how or when this will see release here in the US.

I wonder how deep they'll go for the Amber collection scale, I mean... they're running out of small scale dinos IMO.

I love my Brachiosaurus so I'm TOTALLY in for this girl! 

I think what one of the above posts mean is we're nowhere near out of dinosaur species, but...most the film dinosaurs/creatures have been done by now in some form. I believe the only ones not are:

- Mamenchisaurus as seen briefly in The Lost World. It's the massive Sauropod (long-neck) which the dirt bike drives under and through it's legs. I really have my doubts it'll get made. Firstly it would be bigger and longer than this Apatosaur but its neck as high as the Brachio. I don't really think it's distinct enough to be made. But who knows? 

- Corythosaurus as seen briefly in JP///. This I think has a high chance of getting made someday. Realistically they really could even just repurpose the Parasaurolophus body with a new head even. 

I believe that's it actually. I mean even the Compsognathus has been technically done as pack-in's for the Legacy figures. You could argue that some of the baby dinosaurs haven't been made like the Baby Stego from Lost World. 

Now for Amber Collection though, that's a different matter. It doesn't seem like they want to go beyond mid-sized Dinosaurs. So far we've gotten multiple Raptors, the Dilophosaurus, and now the Pteranodon is coming. If they stick to just mid-sized there's still options. Gallimimus, Pachycephalosaurus, Dimorphodon, and Stygimoloch. I SUPPOSE they could do the Baby Rex from Lost World and a pack of multiple Compy figures though. I think that's about it though if doing ONLY films. WOULD they do medium-large to large in Amber Collection? I'm just not so sure. I'd LOVE it, but I'm hesitant. An Amber Collection Rex would be MASSIVE and a Brachio would just be out of the question entirely. That would have to be the size of a freaking teenager. Hah. I mean even smaller ones like a Carnotaurus or Triceratops would still be huge too. I think the future of Amber Collection lay more in humans. We have Ian, Owen, Nedry, and now Ray Arnold coming. I've heard rumors of Hammond, Grant, Ellie, and Muldoon too. Would they do the kids? Genarro? Lost World characters? I'd LOVE a Roland. I'd assume at LEAST Claire would come for the World films.

lol theyre not even remotely close to running out of species they could make. 

as for amber, wont be anything larger than theyre currently doing.

I mean that they're running out of small dinos for the amber collection, I can only think of a few more dino figures that could be that scale:

1. Compys
2. Pachicephalosaurus
3. Stigimoloch
4. Gallimimus

And maybe thinking about the Colossal line which is arguably in scale:
1. Spinosaurus 
2. Buck T-Rex
3. Doe T-Rex

Everything else is either bigger than what they've done so far, but boy, do I wish they'd do a Parasaurolophus, Stegosaurus, Brachiosaurus, Mosasaurus, and Triceratops. I'd be all over the Explorer truck and RV too, but doubt they'll do them.

Don't get me wrong, I'm loving this line and if they just stick to humans from here on out, I'm fine by it too!

Would this be 1/18 scale?

That looks very cool, pieces like this makes me wish I had the space and money to collect this line.
