 Triceratops Puppet
by PUPPETOYS

Triceratops Puppet is a 26" long full body glove puppet. Triceratops
is a tank-like plant eater with plated armor and three soft foam huge
flesh piercing horns on his head for protection against meat eating
predators. As with all Prehistoric Puppets he is fully flexible down
to his swishing tail! A great learning and role playing puppet for
ages 4 to extinct. Made of a super soft molded polyurethane foam realistically
painted. |
