Medusaceratops lokii- 1/18th scale Dinosaur Action Figure

Once considered a Chasmosaurine, Medusaceratops is now classified as a Centrosaurine due to its similarities to Albertaceratops and Wendiceratops. Its generic name, Medusa, is a reference to Greek mythology, while its specific name, Lokii, is from Norse mythology. This ceratopsian figure measures 12? long and has 20 points of articulation. Includes collectible trading card, unique background display insert and instruction sheet. Packaging features red-foil printing with package art by Raul Ramos.
Medusaceratops lokii Information:
Medusaceratops was a genus of dinosaur belonging to the Ceratopsidae family, which includes horned dinosaurs. However, it's important to note that scientific knowledge is constantly evolving, and new discoveries may have been made since then.
Medusaceratops, formally known as Medusaceratops lokii, was named after the Greek mythological figure Medusa and the Loki, the trickster god of Norse mythology. This dinosaur lived during the Late Cretaceous period, around 77 million years ago. It was discovered in the Judith River Formation in Montana, USA.
Medusaceratops was a relatively small ceratopsian dinosaur, estimated to have been about 4-5 meters (13-16 feet) in length. Like other ceratopsians, it possessed a unique frill at the back of its skull and a beak-like mouth. The frill had openings and extensions, possibly for display or to regulate body temperature.
Unfortunately, due to the limited fossil evidence available, our understanding of Medusaceratops is somewhat limited compared to more well-known dinosaurs like Triceratops. As research continues, paleontologists may uncover more information about this intriguing species and its role in the prehistoric ecosystem. If there have been any updates or significant discoveries since my last update, I wouldn't be aware of them, so I recommend checking more recent scientific sources for the latest information on Medusaceratops and other dinosaurs.
