Some recent (and not so recent) items:


Giant Jurassic sauropod (not yet officially scientifically identified) from Wyoming now fully prepared at the Sauriermuseum Aathal in Switzerland. The 27-meter-long skeleton will first be mounted at the Geneva Museum [Museum Genf] at the end of September as part of that museum's 50-year jubilee.  The skeleton will then go on tour to help raise money for the Aathal museum. (in German)
