Anyone know of a company that makes prehistoric Australian megafauna miniatures? Any scale is fine. Thinking of things like the diprotodon, marsupial lion, etc. Thanks!

Good question,Sydney Natural History Museum might be your best bet,or modify plastic toys,other than that not sure. I’m in Goulburn so we do have a giant ram.
Anyway let me know how you get on? Perhaps Nic at Eureka has something up his sleave,if you’re going to CANCON you could ask him there.

If you're still looking, there are a few decent, larger scale monitor lizards and komodo dragons that can do pretty well for megalania against smaller scale minis and terrain.
A friend of mine does a lot of dinosaur toy repaints and other extinct animals and was doing it with one he'd found in, I think, Hobby Lobby...not sure if it was a tube or individual or what, but there are a few things like that scattered about

“ What about https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Lobster”
lol lol lol Somewhere, there is a photograph of me in front of that thing standing next to a 1970 something Chrysler Charger. Brinks back bizarre memories of a road trip to Adelaide. It’s true, former Guantanamo inmate David Hicks, is probably the only person alive to have ever expressed a desire to return to South Australia.
Try googling The Big Oyster in Taree. It’s genuinely fucking scary.
