Terrible dinosaur toys from museums, gift shops, etc…
I started noticing these a few years back. Tacky Chinese dinosaur toys that not only look like unrealistic dinosaurs, but frankly don’t really look like… anything. Some of them are really just bizarre.
There are some relatively realistic models out there. They might not be feathered, or spot on accurate to current scientific knowledge, but the shapes can be right based on the skeletons, etc.
Then there are some that don’t. I get that museums have to make money in the gift shop, but I also feel like they do have a responsibility for the models to be educational – at least based on a real dinosaur.
