I bought this the other day, as you know, my favourite, and now can't remember if I've already bought it, or if it was actually the Schleich one, I got last time? And, while I thought it had gone on the blog, on that occasion, I can't now find it, so I may have two of these and no Schleich, or one of each, but equally I may have picked one of them up, and then put it back on the shelf!
The
Papo Dimetrodon, a synapsid, not a dinosaur, but a lost branch or clade, closer to mammals, around and about 40 million years before the first dinosaurs, and in my old dinosaur book, placed with the 'dog-like' dinosaurs! It has a moving lower jaw, like the old
Britains crocodile, but much better executed, you can barely detect its joins, in any pose. And nicely decorated; they are expensive - this was about 12-quid - but worth the money, at this quality.
