SCHLEICH 14567 Dilophosaurus Dinosaurs Toy Figurine for children aged 4-12 Years

Great little Moros Intrepidus for the young dinosaur lover. My son (age 4) was looking to spend some birthday money and asked to look at dinosaurs, we stumbled across this one and ended up learning about this recently discovered species. The figure itself is as described, very sturdy and stands well. He was delighted with it and it fits in nicely with it's new friends.

Anyone who has any Schleich animal models knows the sort of quality to expect. This one is no exception. I was there, back in the day, when the first Baryonyx specimen went on display in London's Natural History Museum and I have a fondness for the species. This is a very nice model, accurate to the animal's structure and with lots of detail and texture. The painting compliments it nicely though, of course, almost any dinosaur's actual colours and markings are a case of taking your best guess. The lower jaw is hinged and can thus be posed open or closed. The model stands very well, keeping its balance on a flat desk surface even when the desk gets bumped into moderately hard. A very good Baryonyx and a fine addition to any dinosaur collection.

My son has a number of these Schleich dinos and this, like the others, has proven to be good quality and well detailed. Baryonyx is one of his favourites and as soon as I saw Schleich were bringing one out I picked it up for him. I had previously considered the Papo model of the same dinosaur, but was put off due to the higher price (over £20). Whilst it is debatable which of the two is the most accurate figure (at least paleontologically speaking!!), my son was more than happy with the Schleich version. In general, Schleich branded figurines are worth the purchase over cheaper alternatives as they are durable and tend to retain a bit of value when the time comes to sell them on (i.e. should your child’s interests change as they get older).

This is a good one for Schleich dinosaurs lovers. As always, the attention to details and poses and finishing colours is of high quality. Just one caveat: the teeth are not very refined in cut: this seems to be a common feature amongst Schleich models these days, where the teeth tend to look like that you'd find on cheaper brands.

This is a favourite of my nephew, with sturdy quality materials and an openable mouth he loves to take him everywhere as it fits nicely in his hand. Realistic and well made

Great birdlike Schleich dino. Has quite a few things going for it. First of all, it's very different than the usual raptor or rex, so its great for variation. Second, it’s also a bit bigger than I expected. Third, it has has a great an bright colour-scheme. And fourth, there is some articulation .. ! .. very unusual for Schleich; the arms can move and the jaw can be opened. So my son can now let the Dino more effectively put his teeth in his sister's sweet horse collection. As usual the Schleich figures are of high quality, and the paint seems to be more durable than with other brands.

These models cost a little more but are very good quality with superior detail. My 4 year old grandson loves them and plays with frequently.

Worth the money. Other makes don’t have the same attention to detail. You know that these dinosaur with take being played with for years and still look good once they are no longer a favourite toy!
