Hi, SSAlex.As sideshow collectables have made dinosaur maquettes, I just wanted to ask, do you know if a megalodon maquette will be made?[Megalodon was basically a great white shark that grew around 60 feet[or bigger], weighed around 60 tonnes and was pound for pound the most terrifying creature ever to live, in the sea or on land].

Megalodon is not something that is in the immediate future for Dinosauria. Although it's a well-known ancient predator of oceans many people would see the end product and say 'huh, looks like a statue of a shark'…and they'd be 100% correct of course and as such the clamor for it wouldn't be in the same excitement range as a T-Rex. Now, if we're talking about a diorama scene with a Megalodon attacking something now we're talking and I bet people would be much more excited for something like that. But I haven't heard of Megalodon being explored anytime soon…but who knows! Perhaps something really incredible can be created with that mighty predator!

Interesting enough I watched a fun documentary that counted down the 7 deadliest creatures of the ancient seas. Megalodon was not #1 but #6 or so from what I recall. #1 - Mosasaur! The reasoning being how much they dominated their time period on Earth. This was all just in the opinion of those that created the documentary but I thought it was interesting.

Thanks a lot for your response to my question SSAlex, I greatly appreciate it.If a Megalodon maquette were made depicting it attacking something, no doubt in my mind it would have to be a whale of some kind, as whales were a Megalodons main source of food[maybe having the Megalodon posed biting into the middle of the whale].

Megalodon will be insane!

hmmmm with that being said, SSAlex so will the dinosauria line continue beyond the new Triceratops maquette? and wondering if there will be repaints of the tupuxuara and the remaining dioramas? really love this line thanks.

Hi SSAlex,

I'm very excited about the Darth Vader PF! Do you know when we might see a PO for it?

Thank you!

Hi Alex,

Have you seen the production piece of Obi-Wan Kenobi Legendary Scale Figure?

Thank you.
