Hello to everyone. I've been searching for this toy for some time now, about 7 years. And my memory isn't all that great but here goes

About 9-11 years ago my mom bought me at my local Walgreens a dino egg (i remember it as an egg), it had i think 3 mini dinosaurs inside (a T-Rex, a Tricera, and don't remember the 3rd one) surrounded by a forest scene and enclosed in glass (or clear plastic). The egg had a button on the outside (sorta like a Poke Balls middle circle) in which when pressed the egg would open in half and the little dinos would move for a few seconds. To rewind it one would simply close it. The egg itself i remember it as beige. Really i don't remember anything else besides those details and have been trying to find it ever since i lost it.

If anyone has any idea on the toys name or where i can get one id appreciate it.

I saw something like this on eBay just the other day, but now I can't find it again. I'll keep an eye out, though.

I have something similar,  it's a little oval green egg on a keychain, called My pet Dino.  you pressed the button and it opened and a little triceratops moved back and forth. he mechanism being wound by closing it and triggered by opening it.  I also bought one in blue called Turtle World , featured a sea turtle that "swims" by moving it's flippers and head.  I'll try to find them and see who made them if interested.
