Coming right on the heels of that bizarre Deinocheirus, PNSO follows with another oddball – the Therizinosaurus.
Similar to the Deinocheirus in many ways, though unfortunately not as well preserved, Therizinosaurus has always been a bit of an enigma. Here, PNSO gives Therizinosaurus a beautiful paint job that is as subtly pleasing as the Deinocheirus was loud.
With due attention paid to the anatomy, and most pleasingly having all four toes weight bearing, this is the best Therizinosaurus I have in my collection, and I don’t foresee needing to get another one soon!
