Review

By Raptoralpha: This relatively unknown reptile was one of the first attempts to add the dino-damage gimmick to small sized figures (a section of the skin on its back can come off). A theory about the reason of the non-release of this figure is the nearly unpronounceable name which wasn't particularly market-friendly (but then, Kenner released the Tanystropheus in the same line...).

Points of interest

- The tag number of the Estemmenosuchus is number 15.
- Several packaged samples are rumored to have seen the shelves, but only a packaging test sample have surfaced so far.
- The mold was repainted for an America & UK-only exclusive set in 1997 for the Lost World toy line.
