Meet the Agustinia, one of the most mysterious and visually striking long-necked herbivores of the dinosaur age. Unlike other sauropods, Agustinia is famous for the rows of tall, spiky structures that run along its neck and back—features that continue to intrigue scientists today. These unusual spines may have supported armor, display structures, or protective skin sails, making Agustinia a true prehistoric puzzle.
Living during the Early Cretaceous period, this plant-eating giant used its long neck to reach high vegetation while its intimidating silhouette likely helped deter predators. The Schleich® Agustinia figurine captures this rare dinosaur with bold sculpting, dramatic spikes, and lifelike detail—perfect for imaginative play, learning, and standout display.
