Take your short armed Jurassic friend everywhere with this Giant Inflatable Remote Control T-Rex. Unlike your standard giant inflatable dinosaur, this beast can roll around, spin, and turn. And just like most standard office work, it can all be done remotely. But instead of a corporate controller, it’s a handheld controller. The graphic designer on this next image might want to reconsider the font used to write T-Rex SFX! because that F looks suspiciously close to being an E, if you know what I’m saying. Gross.
Fully inflated, and it takes just 20 seconds to inflate, this big boy measures 56″ tall and 75″ tip to tail (the standard measurement unit for air filled dinosaurs, of course). He’s still 23″ long when fully deflated, just like me. Does it also have sound effects? You bet Jurassic it does. Stomping and roaring sounds from the Jurassic World Dominion movie to be exact. And we always are exact here. Always. Trust the process.
Not sure how fast this thing rolls about, and we highly doubt it’s actually fast enough to do a burnout as shown in the picture (seriously, where do they get these graphic designers from?). At any speed you could certainly scare a small child, a cat, or a senior citizen with it, if that’s your thing. Obviously this is great for Halloween, but perhaps less obviously it’s great for Arbor Day.

Mattel’s Jurassic Park T-Rex Eating Lawyer in Outhouse Playset
Unveiled at Comic-Con 2022, Mattel has created an official Jurassic Park toy of the t-rex eating lawyer Donald Gennaro as he attempts to hide inside an outhouse. A classic cinema moment for sure. The $80 playset includes a 3.75″ Gennaro action figure, a significantly larger t-rex, along with destructible outhouse with lighting and sound effects, sure to provide hours of lawyer-eating fun.
Between Gennaro getting eaten on the can and Dennis Nedry getting spat on by the dilophosaurus, it was nice seeing those jerks get their just desserts. Sure, you could argue that nobody deserves to be eaten by dinosaurs, but you would be wrong. Those guys did. Plus several other people I know.
Unfortunately for those seriously interested, the playset appears to have already sold out, so expect to pay a pretty penny for one in the resale market. Or just cross your fingers and hope to pick one up at a garage sale in ten years. That’s what I’m doing. Either way, I’ll be saving myself a small fortune.

Save $100 on The Coolest Dinosaur Robot Ever
It seems like it has been a very long time since Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom was in theaters. If you have kids that are fans of dinosaurs and the movie, they will love this Alpha Training Blue RC robot. It looks like the raptor called Blue in the film, and it’s one of the coolest robots you can buy. Best of all, it’s $100 off just in time for a last minute holiday gift.
The robot dino is truly impressive with articulated legs, arms, head, and tail, and it has 7 motors which provide animations for its head, including a moving head, eyes, and mouth. It’s fully-interactive too, and responds to your movements and touch. The video below shows just how amazing this thing is:
The dinosaur is 2-feet long and suitable for ages 8 and up. It was originally priced at $249.99 when it came out last year, but you can grab the Jurassic World Alpha Training Blue robot for just $149.97 over on Amazon.
Indominus Rex Robot Wants to Eat Your Other Dinosaur Toys
Jurassic World was one of those silly summer popcorn flicks, loaded with destruction, dinosaurs, and cheesy dialogue. In other words, I loved it. One of the highlights of the movie was the giant dinosaur with the silly name – the Indominus Rex. Now you can own a robotic version of I. Rex to wreak havoc on your action figures.
The robot is designed to patrol, hunt, and explore its environment, and can be programmed using the included remote control. It’s even got infrared sensors in its nose to detect and react to hand movements. And as it moves, it belts out roars and growls just like the real fake dinosaur from the movie. The dino gets particularly nasty if you mess with its tail.
You can get your hands on the Zoomer Dino World Indominus Rex toy over on Amazon for just $79.94(USD)

The second Star Wars sweater that I couldn’t resist including. “Silent Night, Jedi Night,” get it? “Silent night, holy night? Jedi knight?” Yeah, you probably got it. Anyway, look at that Santa Yoda. I’d love the jolly green jedi to bring me gifts. “A merry christmas, I wish you.”
Pac-Man Christmas Sweater
