CollectA Dinosaurs - Xiphactinus #88928
3+ Years
Small Parts. Not for children under 3 years.
The CollectA Xiphactinus measures: 6.4" L x 2" W x 2" T.
The flippers and fins are also well-designed and add to the realism of the figure. The overall look of the Xiphactinus is impressive, making it a great addition to any collection.
The only downside to this model is the lack of variation in the inside of the mouth. It would have been nice to see more detail or color variation, but this is a minor issue compared to the overall quality of the figure.
The name Xiphactinus is derived from the Greek words "xiphos," meaning sword, and "aktinos," meaning ray, which refers to the fish's sword-shaped body and long, pointed fins. Its body was streamlined and muscular, with a long and narrow snout that was filled with sharp teeth, perfect for hunting and capturing prey.
Fossils of Xiphactinus have been found in several parts of the world, including North America, Europe, and South America. These fossils have helped paleontologists to learn more about the anatomy and behavior of this ancient fish.
Xiphactinus was a formidable predator that likely preyed on smaller fish and marine reptiles, including mosasaurs and plesiosaurs. It had a highly developed sense of smell, which it used to locate prey, and a powerful tail fin that allowed it to swim at great speeds.
