Only if it's a feathered raptor. 
But pack animals just scream of diorama potential, don't they?

lol, your right mate , but i really love the models they used in JP
I'd be interested in a dilophosaur, or a chasmosaur (admittedly the latter is less likely, since they've done a styracosaur).
A brachiosaur in scale with the others they've done so far would be sweet. Probably not something I could afford or even find room for, but sweet.
p.s.
No pics yet? If someone doesn't remedy this by tomorrow, I'll post mine.
p.p.s.
Forgot: a pteranodon or quetzalcoatlus would be indescribably awesome, too. More awesome than my first suggestions.

yeah def post those photos already...
...with regards to velociraptor maquette feathers - i'd rather it was with quills along the back of head & neck but not fully feathered... more like raptors in jurassic park 3 than a turkey with teeth

where are those trex pics??
Uploading as we speak...
Okay, here're pics of mine. First things first: I'm not a great photographer, hobbled even more so by a mediocre camera. But with no other pics in this thread so far, beggars can't be choosers!
As is typically the case with pics like this, they aren't a perfect representation of how it looks in life, in person. Most of these shots are using a flash, which makes the colors seem a lot bolder than they appear in life, and it makes it look shinier too. Without the flash it looks more drab and blah. Personally, I'm very happy with how it turned out - as with the carnotaurus, I think it's as good if not better than the prototypes.
The cheapie foam packaging others have mentioned is a drag - I was blowing and plucking bits of styrofoam from him for a long time. And there is a weird something-something going on with his left foot, the middle tow: paint seems to have rubbed off a little there or something, and I can't decide if it bothers me enough to go through the return/exchange hassle... it's pretty hard to see.
Okay, blabbity blabbity. To the pics.

The pics aren't bad at all. You want to see bad pics, go take a look at mine in the Disney threads.
Is the scarring very visible in person?
Ha, thanks. The scarring is noticeable, I'm not sure if I'd say "very". You don't notice it immediately, but if anyone stops and looks at it for more than a few seconds, they notice the scars.
In theory I like them, in execution they're mediocre. Most of them are okay, but the one that bothers me a little is the gaping gash on the T-rex's left side, base of his tail (you can see it in some of my pics). It's just a large, featureless smooth glob of scar tissue that doesn't do anything for me.
Luckily - for me, anyway - I feel the profile of the thing's head is just so awesome, it distracts me from my mixed feelings about his battle damage.

FINALLY! Some pictures! Each image that I see gets me more and more excited for Tuesday! 
On a related note, it's entirely plausible to make feathered raptors extremely cool and menacing in appearance. That, and if they don't make dromaeosaurs feathered they'll hear a LOT of complaining from sticklers like me who would readily be looking for someone's feet to hold to the fire. Dromaeosaurids were feathered (to lesser degrees with increasing size, but feathered nonetheless) and since the line is meant to be in keeping with the latest paleontological thought, it wouldn't be consistent to render bald raptors.
