Max Paraceratherium (480 cm SH, 17 tonnes) vs Sauroposeidon holotype (32 meters TL, 60+ tonnes), paratype of Mamenchisaurus sinocanadorum (246 cm femur, 75 tonnes), BYU 9024 Barosaurus (50 meters TL, 100 tonnes), and Dreadnoughtus holotype (26 meters TL, 46 tonnes, not full grown). Sauroposeidon scalebar is 1 meter, credit to Paleo King, Greg Paul, Larramendi, Dreadnoughtus discoverers, and Hartman for skeletals.   |

Here's an artsy take on a matchup. Triceratops vs Mapusaurus - scaled to 9 and 13.6 meters TL, respectively. Triceratops color is by Artlover1214 and linework by Levi Draconia, while Mapusaurus is from dinosaurpictures.org  |

Didn't Mamenchisaurus have a club-like apparatus at the end of its tail?

roninwolf1981It does (M. hochuanensis), but not the species I'm using in my size comps (M. sinocanadorum)

Titanoboa vs Plesiosuchus, lower and maximum sizes. On top is Titanoboa (higher end, 14.6 meters TL and just under 13 meters as-is) vs Plesiosuchus (6.8 meters); this is to show what Titanoboa at the bottom of the water adopting a defensive posture would look like against Plesiosuchus In the middle is lower Titanoboa (12.6 meters TL) vs Plesiosuchus (6.8 meters) On the bottom is max Titanoboa (14.6 meters TL) vs Plesiosuchus (6.8 meters) Credit to Prehistoric Wildlife for the top Titanoboa and Blaze for the other 2, and credit to the Plesiosuchus description paper for the drawing  |

Purussaurus vs Triceratops, max vs max (UFAC 1403 vs UCMP 128561) Purussaurus is 10.3 meters TL and ~6.2 tonnes, while Triceratops is 9.2 meters axial length and probably >13 tonnes with the proper widening of the top view. Scalebar is 1 meter, Triceratops skeletal is by Hartman and top view by GSP, Purussaurus top view from clearpng.com and side view by randomdinos  |

Here are 2 of 1993's giants. Holotype of Argentinosaurus (32.2 meters along the centra, 73 tonnes) vs paratype of Mamenchisaurus sinocanadorum (35 meters TL, 75 tonnes). Scalebar is 1 meter, skeletals by randomdinos and Greg Paul respectively.  |

Ah, so it was for that specific species. All this time I was under the impression it was genus-wide... roninwolf1981 It does (M. hochuanensis), but not the species I'm using in my size comps (M. sinocanadorum)Ah, so it was a specific species that had the club tail. |

^You may have it mixed up with Shunosaurus or Datuosaurus as well; AFAIK, both of them have species-wide clubs

Here is an excellent size comp between the very largest sauropods we have more or less some decent evidence of (it's from here). European Somphospondylian A.K.A Pepé/Grandpa, ~2.6 meter femur and ~1.7 meter fibula: ~34-34.6 meters TL, ~94.8-101.2 tonnes Barosaurus lentus A.K.A Suspension Bridge, ~1.37 meter C7: ~50 meters TL, ~98 tonnes Apatosaurus ajax A.K.A Ultimate BRONTOSMASHer, adult scaled up from OMNH 1670: ~37 meters TL, ~103.3-106 tonnes  |

Gorgosaurus pack of 3 (NMC 2120, 9.3 meters, 3 tonnes each) vs Giganotosaurus (MUCPv-95, 13.2 meters, 8.6 tonnes). Left scalebar is 1 meter, Gorgosaurus is by randomdinos while Giganotosaurus is composite Hartman and GetAwayTrike  |
