ITOY Studio Resurrection Dilophosaurus and Revising Dilophosaurus
A recent revision of Dilophosaurus fossil material (D. wetherilli) revealed that the lower jaw (dentary), was more robust than previously realised and it has been suggested that this dinosaur was a much more formidable predator, a terror of the contemporary Sarahsaurus, a member of the Sauropodomorpha. The large crests on the ITOY figure reflect the latest thinking in terms of the crest size and the design team have given their figure crimson head crests, possibly a nod towards the idea that these crests were primarily used for display. The inside of the mouth is particularly well painted. The Dilophosaurus has an articulated jaw, so the figure can be posed with mouth closed, mouth open or indeed somewhere in between.

Model Measurements
The Model measures a fraction over twenty centimetres in length. The head is some seven and a half centimetres off the ground. Naturally, when placed on its display base the figure appears a little taller. Team members at Everything Dinosaur have enjoyed taking photographs and videos of this replica. There are plans to make a more detailed video in the future showcasing this model and revealing just how securely this dinosaur stands on its base.
