Product description and measurements
Anzu wyliei is a theropod dinosaur of the Caenagnathidae family that lived during the Late Cretaceous, approximately 68 to 66 million years ago, in what is now North America. It was discovered in the Hell Creek Formation in Montana and South Dakota, a region known for its rich fossil diversity of dinosaurs that lived just before the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event. Anzu wyliei is nicknamed the "chicken from hell" due to its similar characteristics to modern birds, combined with its unusual and somewhat intimidating appearance. It is estimated that this dinosaur reached a length of about 3.5 meters and a weight of up to 300 kilograms, being one of the largest known members within the Caenagnathidae family.

This dinosaur had a number of traits that made it unique. Its skull was long and low, with a bony crest on top that probably supported a keratinous structure similar to that of some modern birds, such as cassowaries. Its jaw was toothless and featured a sharp beak, suggesting an omnivorous diet, possibly based on vegetation, fruit, small animals and even eggs. Anzu wyliei's hands were elongated and had sharp claws, which could have allowed it to manipulate objects or tear vegetation and small prey. Its legs were robust and relatively long, indicating that this dinosaur was adapted to move in an agile manner, although it was probably not as fast a runner as other theropods.

Recent studies on its bone structure and fossil deposits suggest that Anzu wyliei lived in flood plains, swamps and river areas, environments that favored a varied diet and possibly provided abundant food resources. The discovery of specimens of this species at different sites suggests that it may have been common in these ecosystems, where it coexisted with other dinosaurs, including predators such as Tyrannosaurus rex and other large herbivores. Although it is difficult to know for sure its behavior, scientists suggest that its combination of physical characteristics and its medium size would have allowed it to move between different ecological niches, favoring a flexible diet that would have helped it thrive in changing environments.

Since its discovery, Anzu wyliei has provided key information on the diversity and evolution of oviraptorosaurs in North America, a group of dinosaurs that, although related to modern birds, is characterized by a variety of shapes and sizes and a wide geographic distribution. Recent studies on this species have also helped to better understand the evolutionary connection between theropods and modern birds, especially in terms of adaptations related to the skull and limbs. Anzu wyliei, with its distinctive mix of avian and reptilian features, represents an important link in the evolutionary history of dinosaurs and adds complexity to our understanding of late Cretaceous ecosystems in North America.

Information about aftershocks

Collector's item ; Hyper-realistic replica, highly detailed and with a high degree of scientific precision.

Made to scale, prototyped in resin and with a scenic base in most of the models offered. If you like miniatures, both for collecting and for painting, we offer you a wide variety of scale replicas; All of them related to dinosaurs, extinct prehistoric fauna and current fauna.

So if you love dinosaurs and animals as much as we do, this is your favorite store to collect and paint them :)

We are authorized distributors of all the replicas and figures we offer. We use 3D printers with 8K - 14K resolution, and high-quality resins with additives to improve hardness and flexibility, thus offering replicas of impeccable quality.

Different scales will be used to make the replicas (depending on the size of the species), although we are open to making other suggested scales upon request as long as they fit in our printing trays, for which you will have to contact us via email and request the required size.

Replicas are supplied with the option of airbrush priming in dark grey. If you require another colour, please let us know which one you prefer in the box with special instructions for the seller. Without priming, we do not guarantee that the resin will accept paint.
We also offer the option of choosing a professionally painted replica, which is agreed upon throughout its development with the painter, through a private chat available.

Complete replica (one piece): We supply complete replicas in those models that are small, and models that are medium, large or not very bulky, will have the prerogative of being presented as a complete replica or assembly kit as the case may be.
Complete replicas will be supplied separately from their base.

Replica assembly kit: We supply replicas whose models are large, very large or bulky, only with this option.
The indicated replicas (generally composed of base, head, body and tail) will come prepared for the subsequent assembly that will be required by the client, by sanding, putty, adhesive or technique chosen by the client.

All replicas are thoroughly inspected before shipping and will be carefully packaged to prevent damage during transport.

Information about the models

The poses of the models aim to represent each character in the most scientifically viable way, thus revealing the life and customs of prehistoric and modern fauna.

Each character has its own personality and develops in different life scenarios; birth, adolescence and play, hunting, feeding, fighting, courtship, death and many other scenes from their daily life, always from the creative perspective of their designers.

Handmade

All orders are individually prepared on the cutter for subsequent prototyping, obtaining a resin part that will require post-processing by manual and ultrasonic cleaning, support removal, ultraviolet curing, labeling and packaging.

We are authorized distributors

We offer both our own physical replicas and those that have been modeled by many of the best 3D designers, in order to offer you the greatest possible variety.
