This Mosasaurus New from Papo in 2023, looks great! Good sculpting, an even better paint job, and a moveable jaw that opens and closes! A true terror of the deep! The figure has large curve to it.
The Papo Mosasaurus measures: 10" L x 3.5" W x 4.5" H
The Papo Mosasaurus is an incredible addition to any dinosaur enthusiast's collection. As a new release from Papo in 2023, it is evident that the company has put a lot of effort into making this model of the apex predator as lifelike as possible. The muscular mold of the Mosasaurus is impressive, and the fine detail in the leathery appearance of the hide is superb. The coloring and texture of the skin give it an authentic feel, making it look as though it could have just emerged from the ocean. The face and mouth of the Mosasaurus are especially well-done, with intricate details on the teeth and tongue, giving it a fearsome look that accurately captures the ferocity of this ancient predator.
The mouth of this figure correctly has the second set of upper jaw teeth.
One of the best things about the Papo Mosasaurus is its size. At nearly 10 inches in length, it is a decently sized model that would be perfect for display on a shelf or desk. Additionally, the Mosasaurus is sturdy and well-made.
Overall, I highly recommend the Papo Mosasaurus to anyone who loves prehistoric marine reptiles or who wants to add a unique and impressive model to their collection. It is a well-crafted and lifelike representation of an apex predator that will undoubtedly draw attention and spark conversation wherever it is displayed.
Mosasaurs were a group of large, predatory marine reptiles that lived during the Late Cretaceous period, between approximately 70 and 66 million years ago. They were related to modern-day snakes and lizards and were among the top predators in the marine ecosystem of their time.
Mosasaurs were well adapted for life in the water. They had streamlined bodies, paddle-like limbs, and powerful tails. They were able to swim swiftly and efficiently and could reach lengths of up to 50 feet (15 meters) or more. Mosasaurs were carnivorous, feeding on a variety of prey including fish, ammonites, turtles, and other marine reptiles.
The most famous species of mosasaur is probably Mosasaurus itself, which was first discovered in the Netherlands in the late 18th century. Mosasaurus was a large, formidable predator that could grow up to 50 feet in length and had a set of sharp, interlocking teeth that it used to catch and kill its prey.
