The classic wooden Walking Triceratops, originally released in 1993, has undergone a makeover. The formerly used metal gearbox and parts are changed to the assembled plastic gearbox (featuring built-in motor with cables) and plastic parts for safe and ease of assembly. Transparent plastics offer visibility of mechanisms.
• Length: 284mm, width: 92mm, height: 115mm (approximate dimensions). Weight: approximately 210g (including battery).
• One separately sold AA battery is required. Continuous running time: about four hours.
• The assembled plastic gearbox has only two cables, which eliminates the difficult assembly of the power unit.
• Gear ratio: 280:1.
• Speed: about 1.67 cm/s. (The model moves 1m in about 60 seconds.)
• The body is redesigned based upon in-depth research at the Fukui Prefectural Dinosaur Museum.
• The body made of wood allows easy modifications and decoration with paint and pens.
• Materials: transparent plastic and wood (poplar-type).
• The model slowly moves forward swinging its head and tail from side to side, which gives it a more realistic look.
• The link mechanism moves forelegs and head, weight transfer moves the tail, and link and crank mechanism rotation moves hind legs.
• Challenge level: 2 (5 is the highest.). Approximate assembly time : 90 - 120 minutes.
