Model Kit Triceratop Dinosaur

Description

Model Kit Triceratop Dinosaur. Ugears adds a new beast to its dinosaur automaton collection with the Triceratops (“face with three horns”), a dynamic, mechanical DIY wooden model of the dominant herbivore from the late Cretaceous. Like our Tyrannosaurus Rex model, the Triceratops is powered by a metal spring that transmits power through a reduction gear, which drives the shaft that drives the four legs. An eccentric acceleration causes the tail to swing synchronously with the legs, allowing the dinosaur to walk smoothly, just like in nature. This amazing model of the walking dinosaur is a wind-up, self-built 1:32 wooden scale model of a fully grown Triceratops. A wind-up key is hidden between the dinosaur’s shoulder blades. Remove the key and insert it into one of the round ratchet mechanisms on either side of the dinosaur’s belly. Hint: If the legs block the wind-up slot, wind from the other side, or press the “Start” button and turn the large gear under the dinosaur’s belly to move the legs forward until the wind-up slot is free. Press the “Stop” switch and turn the key fully six or seven times to wind up the spring, then return the key to its position between the shoulder blades. Place the Triceratops on a smooth, flat surface, gently hold the automaton by the tail, press down on the “Start” switch and release. Your Triceratops will saunter away, its head and tail waving happily and its jaws moving. Perhaps he is trying to escape danger – a hungry Tyrannosaurus or an exploding volcano? Or perhaps your Triceratops is looking for greener pastures? It takes a lot of ferns and cicadas to fill the belly of a 9-ton beast! This unwieldy scale giant can run up to 90-100 cm with any excitement. The Triceratops and Tyrannosaurus Rex models will be joined by other Ugears dinosaurs in the near future, allowing you to build your own Chalk Park with prehistoric animals. These beautiful and somewhat terrifying models are sure to capture the imagination of any child and spark their interest in natural history. The kit consists of approximately 400 parts. Estimated assembly time: 8 hours
