Tectonic Brachiosaurus Kit

Build a Brachiosaurus Brachiosaurus, meaning “arm lizard” gets its name from disproportionately long front legs giving it an upright, giraffe-like posture. The warm blooded Brachiosaurus lived in the late Jurassic Period, 154 - 150 Million years ago. It is known as the tallest dinosaur - towering up to 50 feet tall and their extraordinary  weight (32 - 64 tons) restricted their maximum speed to 10 miles per hour. Brachiosaurus fossil remains have been found in Utah and other western States - specifically in the Morrison Formation.  The Tectonic Toy Brachiosaurus design is based on the notion that scientists don’t fully agree how Brachiosaurus bent over to drink or eat - considering their ultra-heavy mass. It is not agreed how the Brachiosaurus hips opened when it squatted. Perhaps outward like a crocodile, or backwards like a flamingo.  Our design is a fun mechanical way for the Brachiosaurus to lower its center of gravity, bend over, and use its tail as a counterweight.
