Collecta Fukuiraptor Dinosaur 1:40 Scale - 88857

As indicated by its slender phalanges, Fukuiraptor was a relatively lightly built animal, regardless of its maturity. The immature holotype is estimated to reach 4.2 metres (14 ft) long and weigh 175 kg (386 lb) in its initial description.[1] In 2010 Gregory Paul gave a length of 5 meters (16 ft) and a weight of 300 kg (660 lbs). In 2014, its body mass was estimated up to 250 kilograms (550 lb).[6] Molina-Pérez and Larramendi estimated a length of 4.3 meters (14.1 ft) and a weight of 590 kg (1,300 lbs) in 2016.The distinctive teeth of Fukuiraptor show similarities with both archarodontosaurids (being very compressed and blade-like, as well as having wrinkled enamel) and tyrannosaurids (having oblique blood grooves near the serrations).The holotype also had very large and flat manual unguals (hand claws), which played a role in its initial classification as a dromaeosaurid (as the hand claws were mistaken for foot claws) as well as its current classification as a megaraptoran.
