This was so much fun! I used it for a carnival in school being that I am a teacher. I tell the children that I am from when the dinosaurs were around the Earth. This is a great opportunity to prove it the costume itself is fairly simple. Make sure to have the blower clip on your belt. That way it will not dangle. I also found that it was easy to see through the visor and navigate. The construction of the costume is a very good quality, as well as it was easy to put on by myself and definitely a wearable costume.

Function and comfort over beauty it’s a pass otherwise he’s realistic looking.
This fit so weird. The battery pack isn’t interchangeable & has to be unscrewed to put the batteries in but…* they don’t give a screwdriver to fit the tiny battery storage pack*** I couldn’t find the pocket to hold the battery pack. There is a zipper and it’s in the front but it’s in the outside and it’s a single sided zipper. I’m 5’4 & this came high up on my ankles and short on my arms. I thought maybe I was sent the kid’s size by accident but it says adult. There are gloves so you can have access to your hands and it does move really funny but I was so annoyed by the time I found a screwdriver and the difficulty in unscrewing it to put in the batteries as well made me lose all patience. I’m returning it as the day of the parade I won’t have time to worry about this one costume if anything happens, I want to just give everyone extra battery packs to switch out just in case. The fan does come already attached. It comes with a flimsy plastic pouch for storage. It dues look realistic from Jurassic park but this is more functional over beauty for me. If you’d rather beauty first then sure I’d recommend. *also you’ll need to be cognizant of the tail dragging, I had to bend over to keep it from doing so which wasn’t very comfortable. I did still do a video to demonstrate fun factor despite my patience gone. Otherwise. No.

My wife and I share this Amazon account, so I will allow her to offer her thoughts on this product since she bought it for herself. But first, I will say that the level of sheer joy in our home exponentially increased moments after she donned the costume and inflated it fully. Here she is:

Want to know how to shake things up in an Infantry Division during 0630 PT Formation? Order this costume and show up to terrorize the lazy out of some Privates!
I'll admit, when I picked the package up from our mailroom I was a bit nervous. It was small and seemed like it wouldn't possible be large enough to fit. Before I even opened the package I checked my order history on Amazon to make sure I didn't accidentally order the costume for children. I didn't. I was ready to have to return the costume as I tore open the package, but was pleasantly surprised to find an adult-sized t-Rex inside.
Getting the costume on took some work. I don't recommend wearing boot-cut jeans under it for two reasons: first, the feet of the costume are open on the bottom so you can wear shoes without wearing the bottom of the costume out by walking on the material of it. To keep the airflow from escaping through the foot area, the ankles are elastic... and that elastic is pretty snug. If you're wearing boot-cut jeans, there is a lot of material to get the elastic around. I was able to get the elastic over the jeans with some careful manipulation, but the ensuing bunching of the boot-cut jeans made for a pretty tight squeeze.
I was worried about how thin the material of the costume is. We live in South Korea, and the temperatures are getting down in the high 20s (F). With a fan blowing air around the inside of the costume, and 20*+ weather outside, I was nervous that the costume would be miserably cold to be in. On the contrary! I was warm and close to sweating after wearing the costume inside our 68* apartment for less than ten minutes. This comes back to the second reason boot-cut jeans may not be a great idea. Go for something a bit thinner... maybe running capri pants?
I have only worn the costume for a silly 20 minutes in our apartment to see how it fits and how it works. For your reference, I am a 5'9" curvy woman of 190 pounds and it fits well once it's on. Getting it on took a little bit of manipulation because there is no stretch to the material (specifically, putting my arms in the armholes after having my legs in completely). It wasn't a huge struggle... and I was able to don the costume by myself, but I will say that the costume does take a small amount of thought to put it on.
I intend to wake some Soldiers up at PT in the morning in this costume. After doing so, I'll post an update to this review to reflect my thoughts. As of right now, this looks to be a wonderfully sturdy, hilariously fun costume. I can't wait to see what shenanigans we can make with this fellah!

This costume is so awesome. I bought this to surprise my niece at her wedding reception as she has loved dinosaurs her whole life.
Once all the formal stuff was done, I snuck off to change into the costume with the help of my granddaughter. Once I was ready, she went back out, signaled my brother who signaled the DJ and suddenly the theme music to "Jurassic Park" started playing. That was my cue. I came out and the hilarity ensued.
Everyone was cracking up. I went over to my niece and made her dance with me. She hugged me and said "I love you so much, this is awesome". I then danced with her new husband. It was a great time.
Afterwards she came up to me to inquire if I had rented or bought the costume. I told her I bought it and asked if she wanted it. I received a resounding "Yes!" I told her it was hers. She said "OMG! I have to go tell my husband. Oh, I just love saying that!" and she ran off. LOL
I retain the title of Best Aunt Ever!
The costume works really well. There is a very small, unnoticeable hole in the seam in the head but that is so the costume doesn't blow up - like kablooey blow up - the arms and legs have elastic and fit tight. It is easy to put on and inflates quickly and quietly. It does get hot after a while but the fan helps. I suggest wearing a tank top and shorts underneath. You'll need a tiny screwdriver to get the battery box open. All in all, a great costume, easy to wear, and sure to be the hit of any event.
