Personally I want the Dilophosaurus but it’s 19.5 ft long pic.twitter.com/tzoNslvvtN

That’s huge!

Posters noticed that the prehistoric playthings aren’t too pricey on the front end. But there’s more to consider.

Those are so reasonably priced. What’s the catch?

You have to take them down, take them apart, and ship them. It’ll cost 2x the purchase price for that alone.

They weigh 6 tons each

Each dinosaur will cost a small fortune to transport due to weight, size, and distance. A pickup truck’s not going to handle the load. Buyers will have to hire professional freight movers.

One poster says the dinos will eventually find new homes. The demand for the unique collectibles is high.

Genuinely curious about the market for these. I can see scenarios where none ever sell and also those where they are all instantly sold.

Market is great, each of these new would be in the low five figures because they’re animatronic.

Is it bad that I look at this and go…”$850 isn’t even that much for this!!!”? 🤣

How often does one get to do dinosaur comparative pricing and shopping?

Many posters have a bedrock idea where the big lizards should wind up, and it’s in California.

Someone needs to get in touch with the I-280 flintstone house ASAP pic.twitter.com/2rpDk4vA1J

There is a certain flinstonesque homeowner along the 280 who’s going to snatch these up

I feel like $1260 for a stegosaurus is a steal

My friends think that’s expensive for a fake dinosaur, but I assured them that a real one would be much pricier.

We’ll take the fake ones. Can you imagine the cost of feeding livestock to a real T-Rex every day?
