Admire it on a shelf, use it in the classroom, or simply enjoy playing with it. PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS: The Ankylosaurus is 7 1/2 inches long and 2 ½ inches high to the tip of his raised tail. It’s a bit longer than a soda can on its side, and about as wide. Its back features brown dermal plates on a darker brown upper body, with a light yellowish-brown below.
