Styracosaurus.

But I don't know anything about dinosaurs. It just looks good to me.

Brachiosaur yeah, brontosaur, it depends on the depiction of it. But with mamenchisaurus, it's neck just seems impossibly long (well some of them anyway).

@murdoc @ErickaSimone

Yeah now that you mention it, I looked up illustrations and the neck is just comically long... it's very cute.

@ErickaSimone

I have always been very fond of the Brontosaurus

@ErickaSimone I've always been a Diplodocus person myself.
