Papo New Releases 2020
Papo 2020 Releases Preview... coming to Animal Kingdoms in 2020. We are excited to announce these beautiful new figures from Papo... so many more to be announced, check back for more soon!
The Papo 2020 have started with new additions to their prehistoric range, including completely new sculpts, as well as colour varients of previous sculpts.
Papo Gigantosaurus 55083
Measurements:
Giganotosaurus was one of the largest meat-eating dinosaurs. It roamed modern-day Argentina during the late Cretaceous Period, about 99.6 to 97 million years ago.
For a long time, Tyrannosaurus Rex the "king of the dinosaurs" was thought to be the largest carnivorous dinosaur. Today, Giganotosaurus is believed to have been slightly larger than T. rex, though even Giganotosaurus ranks behind Spinosaurus in size among the meat-eating dinosaurs.
Giganotosaurus should not be confused with Gigantosaurus, a lesser-known sauropod discovered in England.
Papo Stygimoloch 55084
Measurements:
Stygimoloch was a small herbivore that was approximately 10 feet long, 3 feet high and weighed around 170 pounds. It was bipedal—meaning that it walked on two legs—and had bony spikes on its skull, some of which were 4 inches long. It is believed that these horns were used by males as they competed for females.
An interesting fact about Stygimoloch is that some paleontologists now believe that what is called Stygimoloch was actually a juvenile version of a Pachycephalosaurus. At this point, it is just a theory and it hasn’t yet been confirmed whether or not this is the case.
This dinosaur probably lived off a diet of horsetails, gingkos, cycads, seed ferns and club mosses. It probably didn’t require a lot of food to keep these dinosaur alive. Probably only about 10-20 pounds of vegetation were needed a day for this dinosaur’s survival.
Papo Chilesaurus 55082
Measurements:
This dinosaur was approximately 10 feet long and was approximately 2.8 feet at its shoulder. This would have made Chilesaurus about the size of a wolf, although it is about 4 feet longer than a wolf and at a weight of 300 pounds would have been 3 times heavier than a wolf.
An interesting fact about Chilesaurus is that paleontologist have described this dinosaur as a vegetarian T- Rex. That’s because it is from the same family as T- Rex dinosaurs, but was definitely an herbivore. It was a truly unique dinosaur that must have begun to evolve along its own lines thanks to its relative isolation from other therapods.
Papo Parasaurolophus colour variant 55085
Measurements:
Parasaurolophus is a dinosaur that lived about 76 million years ago during the Late Cretaceous Period. The name Parasaurolophus, is a name which means “crested lizard”.
This dinosaur is estimated to have been about 40 feet long, 8 feet tall at the hips and weigh about 2 tons. The bony crest on top of its head is believed to have grown as long as 6 feet long. Some scientists believe that air could be pushed through this crest and that enabled this dinosaur to make low frequency sounds. This means that it could use it like a wood wind instrument. In fact, the canals that exist inside of it look very muchy like a European Crumhorn.
It is also believed that this dinosaur not only traveled on all four legs but could also run on two legs when necessary. Parasaurolophus is believed to have been a land based herbivore. This means that its diet probably consisted of ginkos, pine needles and leaves.
Papo Feathered Velociraptor colour variant 55086
Measurements:
Although it featured some nasty looking claws, the Velociraptor was actually a lot smaller than it was portrayed in the movie Jurassic Park, more the size of a turkey than a human.
A fully grown Velociraptor could grow up to 2m (6.6ft) in length, 0.5m (1.6ft) in height at the hip and weigh up to 15kg (33lb).
Papo Spinosaurus Limted Edition 55077
Measurements: 40.30 cm x 10.50 cm x 16.50 cm
This limited edition Papo Spinosaurus is only being released with minimum numbers. While announced as a new addition in 2019, due to production delays it has only been release Dec 2019, meaning for many areas of the world it is avaliable beginning of 2020. Because of this, it has still been added to this list.
Papo Mini Land of the Dinosaurs 33104
Measurements:

Papo Megaloceros 55080
Measurements:
Megaloceros, also known as the Irish Elk, was a genus of deer which lived approximately 2 million to 10,000 years ago.
This animal was approximately 8 feet long and weighed around 1,500 pounds. Which is about the length of a modern elk but nearly double the weight of one. Another feature that made it quite different from looking like a modern elk is its antlers. Its antlers were about 12 feet long and weighed around 100 pounds. As impressive as that sounds, their antlers weren’t used for combat, however. They were almost certainly used by the male deer to attract females.
Megaloceros went extinct right at the cusp of the last Ice Age. And scientists aren’t exactly sure why. Some paleontologists have speculated that overpopulation and inbreeding led to a population of Megaloceros’s that were unable to adapt when the climate changed. Other paleontologists believe that mankind hunted them into extinction. Most likely, it was a combination of these two facts which led to the inevitable demise of these majestic looking animals.

Papo Highland Cattle 51178
Measurements:
Most of the Highland cows that are seen roaming the natural landscapes in Scotland are ginger or brown. However, originally Highland cattle were mostly black. It was, in fact, the Victorians who liked the ginger cows, so they selectively bred them to the point that ginger became the standard Highland cow colour.
They are the oldest cattle breed in the world.
The first mention of the Highland cow was in the 6th century. However, the Highland Cattle Society was formed in 1884, and the first herd wasn’t officially recorded until a year after that.
The average Highland cow weighs around 500 kg, compared to a standard cow which weighs around 700 kg. This means the Highland cows tread lightly, without destroying the ground for other wildlife species and plants. They are perfect for conservation grazing because they use their tongues to pull the grass so the vegetation is not left too short, and their dung fertilises the ground. Finally, they become pollinators when wildflower seeds that stick to their long fur are dropped off in other places.

Depending on the species snails can live 5 - 25 years. 
Papo Dragonfly 50261
Measurements:
Dragonflies were some of the first winged insects to evolve, some 300 million years ago. Modern dragonflies have wingspans of only two to five inches, but fossil dragonflies have been found with wingspans of up to two feet.

Most people like ladybirds because they are pretty, graceful and harmless to humans. But farmers love them because they eat aphids and other plant-eating pests.
Papo butterfly 50260
Measurements:
Butterfly wings are transparent! We know butterflies as perhaps the most colorful, vibrant insects around! Well, a butterfly's wings are covered by thousands of tiny scales, and these scales reflect light in different colors.
Butterflies have taste receptors on their feet to help them find their host plants and locate food. They can see not just some of the colors that we can see, but also a range of ultraviolet colors that are invisible to the human eye.
Papo Grasshopper 50268
Measurements:
Grasshoppers can jump about 25cm high and around 1 meter long. If humans could jump as far as grasshoppers do, relative to size, then we could leap more than the length of a football field.
The grasshopper can jump as far as it does because its hind legs act like miniature catapults. It bends its legs at the knee, mechanism within the knee works like a spring, storing up energy. When the grasshopper is ready to jump, it relaxes the leg muscles, allowing the spring to release flinging it into the air.
Papo Irish Cob 51558
Measurements:
The Irish Cob is known also as the Gypsy, Gypsy Cob, or Gypsy Vanner. Though many of us picture the black and white pinto when we think of these horses, they actually come in a rainbow of colors. Unlike many breeds, the Irish Cob allows for pretty much any color except albino.

Papo Wild West Horse and Rider 51566
Measurements:
Western riding is considered a style of horse riding which has evolved from the ranching, as well as both equipment and riding style which evolved to meet the working needs of the cowboy in the American West.
At the time, American cowboys had to work long hours in the saddle and often over rough terrain, sometimes having to rope a cattle using a lariat also known as a lasso. Because of the necessity to control the horse with one hand and use a lariat with the other, western horses were trained to neck rein, that is, to change direction with light pressure of a rein against the horse's neck.
Horses were also trained to exercise a certain degree of independence in using their natural instincts to follow the movements of a cow, thus a riding style developed that emphasized a deep, secure seat, and training methods encouraged a horse to be responsive on very light rein contact.
Western Riding is the name of a specific event within western competition where a horse performs a pattern that combines trail and reining elements.

Papo Kraken 39476
Measurements:
The Kraken comes from Norwegian folklore and was originally more crab-like.
Accounts disagree on exactly how big the Kraken really is, but one thing is certain: It’s huge. Descriptions go from vague (the length of 10 ships) to more specific (a mile and a half long).
There is no solid evidence of mile-long monsters swimming in our oceans, but we do have giant squids. These deep-sea dwellers can weigh anywhere from 300 to 600 pounds. But, as these immense creatures are not likely to surface, it’s more likely that ancient sailors confused something else in the water for Krakens: Bubbles, dangerous currents, and the appearance of new land are all signs of underwater volcanic activity, something common in Iceland.
The Kraken has a big pop culture presence.
Papo Swimming Mermaid 39163
Measurements:
Some of the earliest legends of mermaids come from ancient Syria. The ancient story dates back to about 1000 B.C., a little over 3,000 years ago!
Mermaids weren't always thought of as the beautiful creatures that we envision today. Many times, sailors would mistake manatees for mermaids, resulting in descriptions that labeled the aquatic creatures as ugly and fat.
The existence of mermaids was never questioned during medieval times. There were hundreds of accounts of mermaid sightings and they were depicted without question in historical accounts of aquatic animals, claiming their place alongside whales and other known sea creatures
