More Jurassic Park Merchandising



Hello All,

In case you missed it, there is a new Jurassic Park edition of the cereal 
Cinnamon Toast Crunch.  It comes with what looks like Eubrontes footprint on 
the cereal (well, I'm from CT!?).  But the question I have is the 'Footprint 
Facts' on the back of the box.  They say that footprints were found in 
Arizona of a '20 pound' dinosaur that are 12 feet apart(!).  Adding that a 
speed of 40 mph was calculated.  What I envision is  this tiny body and 
really long legs ;), but what is the real story here?  Anybody know?

Also the Lost World toy collection has a motorized triceratops 
(non-sprawling gait).  One button make is walk forward (rubber skin over 
plastic frame) and another makes the creature emit a sour moan.  Upon 
examination, the speaker is located between the back legs and under the 
tail.  Which makes one suspect that they took seriously the idea of 
fermenting large quantities of vegatable matter and the result atmosphere 
was very fragrant.....;)
