Pteranodon | PLANNOSAURUS Model Kit

Pteranodon
PLANNOSAURUS Model Kit by Bandai

The Pteranodon, the most iconic flying pterosaur, joins the "Plannosaurus" model-kit lineup from Bandai!

This lineup encourages you to learn about dinosaurs by assembling them yourself from the skeleton out! Begin with the "skeletal build," assembling the creature's skeleton piece by piece; the "dinosaur build" then allows you to attach the outer skin parts to the skeleton. Nippers and glue are not required, so the kit is easy to assemble, too!

The Pteranodon's gigantic beak, which has a delicate skeleton covered with tough keratin, is three-dimensionalized based on the latest theory, including the structure of its mouth. The wing membrane realistically expresses the flow of muscular fibers on its surface, and the pterosaur-specific wing bones, which are said to have been used as elevators, are recreated using the latest construction. The special skeletal structure that allows the shoulder blades and torso vertebrae to form joints and create powerfully flapping wings has also been faithfully reproduced. You can even recreate the Pteranodon's distinctive "landing" position by selecting parts! It is possible to reproduce the wrinkles in the wing membrane when the wings are folded, and the state in which the feet are in contact with the heel on the ground.

A base is included to display it in flight, too.
