Vintage Dino Profiles: Marx Plateosaurus

Another critter from Mold Group PL-755 is the Plateosaurus (meaning: broad lizard) a herbivorous dinosaur of the Late Triassic era living ca 214-204mil years ago in what is now Central and Northern Europe and Greenland, and North America. Given what scientists knew about dinosaurs in 1957 this was depicted in an upright position - which may have been correct when it was feeding -  but more than likely its normal posture would have been more horizontal. The Marx version meausres 2 1/2" (6.35cm) L x 2 1/2" (6.35cm) H. Enjoy! Opa Fritz
