Dunkleosteus figure to scale with average adult male

Sizing Up Our Dinosaur Collection Part 3: What Scale is the Regaliceratops (2018) from Safari Ltd.

The third in an occasional series in which I explore the scale of the miniature figures in my prehistoric animal collection.

With this in mind, using my method I have concluded that the Safari Ltd 2018 Regaliceratops figure is approximately 1/25th the size of the holotype specimen TMP . This means that the life-size animal was approximately 25 times larger than the Safari Ltd figure, giving the Regaliceratops miniature a scale of 1:25 when compared to the museum specimen.

It is worth noting, nearly twenty years on from it's original release, the Safari Ltd figure, while dramatically different in silhouette from the most recent extrapolations is very similar in length.
