Mosasaurs are an extinct group of large aquatic reptiles that lived during the Late Cretaceous. Mosasaurs breathed air, were powerful swimmers, and were well-adapted to living in warm, shallow inland seas. During the last 20 million years of the Cretaceous period, mosasaurids became the dominant marine predators. This Mosasaurus model is carefully detailed, arranged in a dynamic pose that gives the impression that it is about to attack prey.
Its head can be placed in two positions (right or left), it has an articulated jaw and its tail can also be curved to give an even more realistic look.
You can show it off either by posing on the bases or by letting it hang so it looks like it’s in full swim, stalking its next prey. Without a doubt, it is a model that adequately exemplifies the ferocity that this ancient marine predator surely had. Includes spare parts in case you lose any.
In the design of this model, among the reference documents consulted is the illustration of the Mosasaur skeleton developed by Dr. Scott Hartman.
