Fascinating. If the red T.rex I'm selling that's alll ripped up does not sell, I will do an autopsy and take pictures and record the entire process via notes.

Hello guys. I didn't want to create a new topic for a relatively similar question, but do any of you know if it's possible to buy missing parts for Jurassic Park toys? My Young T-rex doesn't have right hand and I am wondering if I could get a replacement on eBay. Or maybe you could help me sculpt it?

I think the only option for that would be to find a heavily damaged one and scavenge it for parts.

I was able to fix my Rex's roar problem. I pulled out the battery compartment by carefully cutting the glue from around the edge. Then I spliced the battery wire and ran more thin audio wire off that to a button relay that I placed in the tail. It works for right now and keeps it from bugging everybody also was able to stuff more stuffing inside to help with some of the warping that has occurred in the neck area and the legs. :) hope that helps I can post pictures if you want

My red rex electronics work perfectly, but I'm getting scared to use it as I haven't had it long and know how fragile the roaring and stomping mechanism can be.  Should I take the battery out and just not use it at all? What do you guys think?

If your having fun use it..it won't last forever any way. If your goign to place it on a shelf, then pull the battery for safe storing.

Great! It would be good to see those pics - I have my original - not autopsied like the spare one - T.rex that would requite some patching up. Did you find any surprises inside the beast? :)
