is this a toy that can go in the bath or pool?

Yes, of course, the megalodon toy could be suitable as pool toys, bath toys, also fit for cake toppers for ocean theme,it will floats when it's put in water.

Can you fit a small toy like lego minifiger in it?

I tried fitting batman (LEGO character) in its mouth and if I make it sit, only the tips of the ears (if the mask) come out. To answer your question, I think it depends on the mini figure.

does anyone know if this will melt if used in a resin diorama? The resin gets hot when it cures.

I’m familiar with resin, I would be surprised if it melted, but it might affect the thinner parts like fins or tail.

Is this more soft & flexible or a hard model car type plastic?

Dear customer, it's made of hard plastic, not soft and flexible,

Solid, made well, detail oriented - fantastic play toy!

The baby grandson gasped at his new addition to his alligator / crocodile collection! Loved it! With a mouth that opens and closes, and 15 inches, it's phenomenal! What a solid, detail-oriented, lifelike (oh yes, you could fool people with this thing) fabulous toy! No water fills inside - so it's never going to get nasty. Water table favorites!!! He absolutely loved carrying this big alligator around - everywhere. The weight of it gives it a sort of ' confidence ' to put on parade - everywhere! Hours upon hours of playing! Baby grandson was in his element!

It is not as large as I thought it would be. Probably shouldn't trust the "large" title. The quality is good, a bit lighter than normal dinosaur that size. It's decent for the size and price.

Sturdy toy alligator

This alligator was the perfect decoration for the alligator and frog cake my grandson requested. I washed it up before putting it on the cake. It is actually heavier and sturdier than I expected. The mouth opens and closes. I used it with an open mouth. My 6 year old grandson was so happy when I told him that he could keep it and play with it after the party.
