Reviews : Pegasus Triceratops

I was impressed by the amount of detail and I can't wait to cover it in paint to really give it life. The pieces stuck together well, requiring little blending and no cutting. As the kit is heavy and prone to falling over (It seems to be common with all Pegasus dinosaurs) I will have to add some sort of support but I think that it'll be easy to hide. It will eventually be a display piece and the high amount of detail, from scales to pose, make that an exciting prospect.

This is a beautifully detailed rendition of a Triceratops and makes a perfect companion piece to the Pegasus T-Rex. I assume this is a parent to the poor baby Trike included in the T-Rex kit. I had to do some trimming to get the legs to fit precisely. Also, like the T-Rex kit, this is a solid vinyl model, so it is top heavy and will tip over. I wound up screwing the base into the bottoms of two feet. This would have made 5 stars without this problem

I would say this was a quick build, but the leg holes on the body required considerable enlarging in order to get the legs to fit properly. I spent hours enlarging the holes with a hand-held drill with sanding bits. Once that was over, you get to have fun with the painting.

This model is so simple to assemble - basically snap a few pieces together. Painting it to make it realistic is the key to making this an awesome display for the dinosaur lover in your house. I bought several of these dinosaurs and made a jungle scene.
