]]>One of the most ferocious creatures to roam the Cretaceous seas, we've transformed this menacing mosasaur into a cute and colorful clay collectible! With his impossibly wide eyes and his adorable dappled flippers, we've fallen in love with this miniature marine reptile, and we're sure you will, too! Reserve yours soon, and he should ship in time for Christmas!
If you haven't already, be sure to take advantage of our Black Friday/Cyber Monday sale, through Friday, November 30th! All of our most popular items are on sale, including Fossil Fusion™ Tees, Bonebed™ Hoodies, Collectible Stickers, and more! Even our Permia Pets™ are specially discounted for the holidays! Best of all, there's no discount code required, and all orders over $49 ship for free in the U.S.!
]]>We promised you the most exciting announcement of the year, and we're elated to unveil just that: our brand new Permia Pets™ collection! Launching this Wednesday, at SVP 2018, our Permia Pets™ are limited-edition, handmade collectible figurines, inspired by our Permia prehistoric creatures! At three-to-four inches long, and sculpted with love (here in the U.S.) out of a special polymer-clay, they're not only cute as can be, but also remarkably detailed. Whether it's the miniature spikes on our Stegosaurus's thagomizer, or the fine quills on our Styracosaurus's back, we think you'll be amazed! Because they're handmade, each Permia Pet™ has its own unique "personality," making them the perfect gift - or, perhaps even more tempting, the ultimate way to build your own endearing flock of dinosaurs and other ancient critters! :)
At SVP this week, we'll be introducing the first five members of our Permia Pets™ family: Dimetrodon, Diplocaulus, Stegosaurus, Styracosaurus, and Tyrannosaurus! Because of how much time it takes to hand-craft each model, we're only able to bring a handful of each creature to Albuquerque; so, please stop by our booth as early as possible, for your chance to be amongst the lucky few to get one! If we're sold out, or if you simply can't make it to SVP, don't worry - we're now accepting pre-orders (on a first come, first served basis), which should start shipping as early as 11/15!
We've had so much fun developing these enchanting collectibles, and we can't wait to let you adopt a Permia Pet™ of your own!
]]>Since we started Permia back in 2015, we knew there would be no escaping the most famous of all dinosaurs - T. rex! With so many Tyrannosaurus t-shirts and merchandise already out there, though, we worried that we might not be able to bring anything new to the table; and, as with all of our other creatures, we weren't content with producing "just another dinosaur." So, we racked our brains (and Scott's!) trying to devise a truly novel approach to the Tyrant Lizard King, and we're proud to say that, at long last, we've brought T. rex to life in a way no one has seen before!
From his exceptionally dynamic rearing pose, supported by immense tail musculature, to his pronounced lacrimal crest surrounding a glaring red eye, we pushed the bounds of scientific knowledge about T. rex as far as we could take them! For coloration, we drew inspiration from a remarkable modern-day dinosaur - the Greater Coucal - which gives our Tyrannosaurus his almost iridescent midnight blue scales and his (strategically localized) rust-tinted plumage! Even the scales on his toes and feet were crafted to meld this terrifying theropod with his avian counterparts, to create a wholly unique, yet entirely plausible, rendering of this most iconic dinosaur.
Of course, after all of that effort, we thought it would be a shame to restrict our T. rex to a home only on our t-shirts. So, in addition to being featured in stunning color on both our slate blue and black limited-edition Fossil Fusion tees, we're also excited to announce that our Tyrannosaurus will be available on our trademark Bonebed hoodies! Both garments will be launching at SVP 2018; however, they're also immediately available for pre-order on our website, at specially discounted pricing through October 20th!
We can't wait to hear what you think of our T. rex, and we hope you'll enjoy wearing him as much as we had fun bringing him back to life!
Oh, and if you've already pre-ordered Baryonyx or Euoplocephalus, thanks again, and we've got you covered - if you also want to pre-order Tyrannosaurus, he'll ship at the same time, and we'll be more than happy to refund any extra shipping charges from your new order (assuming it ships to the same address)!
There's one final surprise in store before SVP, and it may be our biggest (well, technically, smallest!) announcement of the year! You won't want to miss it, so stay tuned ...!
]]>As promised, we have more exciting news to share! Also launching at SVP 2018, and available for discounted pre-order now, it's the armored tank of Western Canada - Euoplocephalus! This club-tailed ankylosaurid will be featured on both our coffee and black tees, and his intriguing patterning was inspired by a modern-day Thorny Devil. We worked tirelessly on every little scale and scute, and we hope you love him as much as we do!
If you've already pre-ordered Baryonyx, thanks so much, and don't worry - if you also want to pre-order Euoplocephalus, he'll ship at the same time, and we'll be more than happy to refund any extra shipping charges from your new order (assuming it ships to the same address)!
Stay tuned ... there's more in store in the coming days!!
]]>We're packing our bags and driving down to Albuquerque, New Mexico for the 78th annual Society of Vertebrate Paleontology (SVP) conference, from October 17-20! We can't wait to see all the familiar faces (and the new ones, of course)! This year, we'll have an even bigger presence, at booths 105 and 107, along with a special surprise you'll have to see in person to believe (courtesy of the incomparable TRX Dinosaurs). If you're already attending, great - if not, please consider heading out to the Albuquerque Convention Center - it'll be a blast, and we'd love to see you there!
We've had a tough time keeping this guy under wraps - as a crowd favorite at last year's SVP, and one of our all-time most requested dinosaurs, we knew we had to pull out all the stops when "reanimating" Baryonyx! Scott crafted him with bleeding-edge anatomical details, and Diana meticulously illustrated each vibrant polygon until we got every detail just right! His incredible patterning is based upon a juvenile Black and White Tegu, and we'll be featuring him on our limited-edition Fossil Fusion tees (in both black and royal purple), officially launching at SVP on October 17th! For those who won't be able to make it to SVP, online pre-orders open today at special pre-launch discounts, with shipment starting on November 1st!
These announcements are just the start of what we have in store! Stay tuned, and follow us on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter for much more in the coming days! :)
]]>We based the coloration of our Smilodon fatalis upon the modern-day Clouded Leopard. Our choice was inspired by the fact that Clouded Leopards hold the record for the longest fangs, relative to body mass, of any modern cat - making them the "saber-tooths" ("saber-teeth?" Haha) of our time!
While often referred to as the saber-toothed tiger, Smilodon actually was no more closely related to tigers than to other extant cat species. It had an incredibly robust build, making it capable of tackling prey several times its size, including giant bison, camels, and glyptodonts (prehistoric armadillo relatives).
Our Smilodon fatalis is available now on our Fossil Fusion T-Shirts (both black and olive fabrics) and Collectible Stickers! To celebrate, we're offering special savings on our newly-launched Smilodon goodies, through April 30th - no discount code needed!
We're looking forward to introducing many new creatures in the months ahead! With Smilodon marking the thirteenth in our lineup, though, we've realized that we're in a bit of a quandary: each of our Fossil Fusion T-Shirts comes in at least six different sizes, and many come in two different colors. So, we've done the math, and that comes out to precisely a gazillion different SKUs! Haha We've decided that rather than renting out the nearest sports stadium to house our inventory, we'll have to take a slightly different approach:
All of our Fossil Fusion Tees are now limited-edition releases! On average, we'll plan on producing up to 250 t-shirts of each creature, divided amongst the various sizes and colors. This approach should allow us to continue crafting new creatures, while also making any t-shirt you buy from us that much more special - since you may be one of only a handful in the world to own it! So, make sure you stay subscribed to our newsletter, to be the first to know when our newest prehistoric animals become available!
We hope you enjoy our Smilodon, and have a great Spring!
]]>In other exciting news, we've just introduced our Dinosaur Gift-Sets! Of course, they're not just limited to dinosaurs - we're offering them for all of our prehistoric creatures! Each gift-set includes a Fossil Fusion T-Shirt, an X-Ray Card, a Sticker, a Greeting Card you can customize with your own message, and our Signature Permia Gift Box - all at a steeply discounted price!

]]>We have six new additions to our Permia creature line-up: Anzu, Diplocaulus, Parasaurolophus, Stegosaurus, Tupandactylus, and Uintatherium! All of these dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures are available now on our Fossil Fusion T-Shirts, X-Ray Cards, Paleoscape Canvases ... and on some wholly new products we're thrilled to announce!
We can't wait for you to see what we've been working on!
Bonebed Hoodies - ultra-plush hoodies with creature skeletons on the front
Collectible Stickers - fun, full-color, easy-peel stickers with life renderings of our creatures
Paleoscape Greeting Cards - soft-touch 5"x7" cards, with environmental and skeletal artwork, and matching seals
Youth Fossil Fusion Tees - kid-friendly versions of our popular "2-in-1" t-shirts
Also, back by popular demand - our Permia "Dimitri" Tees!
We want as many people as possible to enjoy our creatures. With all of your support over the past many months, we've been able to increase and streamline our production, empowering us to offer reduced prices on ALL of our products, especially our museum-quality Paleoscape Canvases!
To accommodate all of our new products and creatures, we've designed a brand new website, with fresh and improved graphics, a cleaner layout, and better mobile performance!
At launch, we're excited to say that we're now able to ship the majority of our products to more than 30 countries! We're also introducing a new size option for our Paleoscape Canvases - 12"x18" - giving you even more options from which to choose! Speaking of choice, we realize that as our creature and product-lines grow, it can be tough to settle on just one gift if you're buying for family or friends. So, we've created a brand-new Permia E-Gift Card, letting your lucky recipient choose his/her favorite!
We're really pleased to report that we've been able to "retool" our manufacturing process for our Fossil Fusion T-Shirts, permitting us to produce them more reliably and at even higher quality than before. As part of this process, we've had to start from scratch on our Youth-size tees; but, with any luck, we'll be able to resume sales of those sizes within the next month-or-two. If you haven't already, please sign up for our newsletter and follow us on social media (Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram) for the latest updates on our products and creatures!
To celebrate our new website launch, we're proud to introduce the newest addition to our Permia creature lineup: our Stegosaurus! He took months of rigorous research and artistry to develop, and we're so happy to be able to offer him on our Paleoscape Canvases immediately, with Fossil Fusion T-Shirts and X-Ray Cards to follow soon. His coloration is based upon a Green Thornytail Iguana, and you can learn all about our creative and artistic process by visiting our new "Science Behind the Art" section here. We hope you love this new vision of Stegosaurus as much as we do!
Thank you again for all of your support and patience as we readied our site for launch. We hope you enjoy it, and we can't wait to hear from you!
