Product details
Plesiosaurus (P. dilichodeirus 'Almost a lizard') is an extinct genus of large marine sauropterygian reptile that lived about 200 million years ago in the early Jurassic period in the Sunnemurian and Toarcian epochs and became extinct about 65 million years ago along with the dinosaurs.
It is distinguished by its small head, long thin neck, broad turtle-like body, short tail, and two pairs of large elongated flippers.
The Plesiosaurus was a large and powerful animal, which could reach up to 12 meters in length, although most known specimens range between 3 and 5 meters in length. Its body was slender and its head small and triangular, with a large number of sharp, pointed teeth in its jaws. The shape of their neck and body suggest that they were very agile and fast swimmers.
The most characteristic of this animal were its four fins, which are believed to have been used to move quickly and agilely through the water. The front flippers were large and paddle-like, while the rear ones were smaller and paddle-like. Its neck was very long, which allowed it to turn its head and throat to capture its prey without having to move its entire body.
Plesiosaurus is known to have fed on a wide variety of animals, including fish, squid, crustaceans, and other marine reptiles. Due to their size and strength, they are believed to have been top predators in their ecosystem. Scientists also believe that they were able to regulate their body temperatures efficiently, allowing them to survive in cold waters.
The Model Pose represents a Plesiosaurus specimen swimming on the coral-covered seabed.
Approximate measurements of the Plesiosaurus:
- Scale 1:35 - 60 mm (Full Replica)
- Scale 1:20 - 106 mm (Full Replica)
- Scale 1:10 - 215 mm (Assembly Kit)

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.
