Think I can buy a plush triceratops and turn it into a gorgonopsid? Or any other pre dino. Up to suggestions too.

I think with the amount of effort you'd need to put into modifying one of these, you might as well start from scratch. I made a plushy once, and I have approximately the same sewing skills as a three-years-dead persimmon stump. As Tommy Lasorda would say, "If I can do it, you can do it!"

I agree with avatar_Newt @Newt; it's probably better to start from scratch. Plus, I'm not sure the cheap fabric they use on those dollar store stuffies will hold up well to seam ripping and re-sewing.

This blog has some pretty good free patterns for stuffed animals, and they include lots of photos of the assembly process. I'm linking their pattern for a bull terrier; shouldn't be too hard to modify that into a gorgonopsid.
Check out my customs thread!
