"review_text": "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. LOLI 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."

"review_text": "My husband already had a T-Rex costume from last year and I got so jealous seeing how much fun he was having wearing it. So I got one for myself too, totally worth every penny!Fair warning - it gets really hot in these. It's basically like a sweat chamber. After wearing them for about an hour, we were both absolutely soaked and had to take breaks where we opened up the suit and had some fresh air. And we were wearing them after the sun had set, I think you can wear it for much less in the daytime with the sun beaming down on you.We got about 2h of wear time out of the suits before our battery packs got empty enough that the fan couldn't keep the costumes fully inflated anymore. But 2h was more than enough time for wearing these, it's a really effective workout as you have to keep your hands up in front of you when walking so the costume doesn't smack in your face with every step. That did not take away from me smiling like an idiot inside the costume the whole time though!My husbands costume was from a different vendor and he had shoulder straps sewn inside of the costume which helped him keep the shape of it and made it more comfortable, so I would probably alter mine by adding some shoulder straps for next year too. Also this is sold as an adult costume but I think most teenagers would fit in this nicely, as I'm only 5,4 and I can't imagine anybody much taller than me being comfortable in this costume. My husband it 6,2 and the one he had was much bigger, I would struggle wearing that one for sure because it would be too much to handle.Know what you're getting into before buying this, it's not an easy costume to wear and it's definitely not for crowded parties, people will step on you and potentially break your costume. We were walking on the street and someone punched my husband in his T-Rex face, so beware of people and your surroundings. You also can't really hear what anybody around you is saying because you're completely surrounded by the noise the costume makes, so careful around traffic. We had some nice people help us cross the street sometimes because they saw that we were struggling with seeing and hearing everything around us.But I still think this is totally worth it and I even gifted one to my friend so we can all be dinosaurs together next year."

Depending on how cool it is inside or outside it might fog up the see though part a bit but that's probably the least of our worries. Wouldn't suggest eating taco bell or dairy products while wearing this though unless you're immune to pink eye."

"review_text": "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!"

"review_text": "I have just tried it on inside so far but seems great. When zipped up before turning on the pump, it seems like it might be claustrophobic but it isn’t at all when you use the pump. FYI the pump is just this little lightweight square with a plastic belt clip connected to it, so it’s pretty easy to clip onto something you’re wearing. Once you zip up and then turn on the pump, it takes maybe 1-2 minutes if that (maybe less than a minute) to fill up. I’m 5’9” and I can put my head at either of the two areas with the clear plastic in order to look out (both around the dinosaur’s neck area). The head and mouth of the dinosaur are above my head completely so it’s nice and airy in there when the pump is going, and it’s even cool inside the dinosaur with the air going. Disclaimer - I haven’t run around in it so I don’t know if that will hold up. The dinosaur arms are pretty short but I think that’s the nature of the t-Rex - it seems like it’d be risky to try to pull your hands/arms up over your shoulders because I just don’t think there’s enough fabric there to allow that without possibly ripping the costume. The dinosaur legs came basically all the way down to my feet. There are holes in the feet, so the costume cinches around your ankles like cinched sweatpants would, and then the dinosaur feet basically overlay your shoes (the dinosaur feet are big enough that they completely cover your shoes so you really wouldn’t see what shoes someone had on). Your shoes then are completely outside of the costume, but everything else is in the costume except your hands and maybe a little part of your wrists/arms, but the costume comes with gloves for your hands. It’s a hilarious and awesome looking costume. I think someone 6’ or so would still probably be able to see through the top of the 2 areas with the clear plastic. Anything higher, you might still be able to fit in the open, airy head part of the dinosaur, but you’d have to scrunch to be able to look out of the plastic I think."

"review_text": "\n The media could not be loaded.\n Purchased this for the 4th of July parade in my local town. Fitment was good, I am about 5'10\" and I wore it where the legs rode up on my calves just a little bit, this was the standard size, I could have wore it all the way down but I found the visibility to be better on the lower part of the costume. I had to put rubber bands around the arms because I am very skinny and the elastic wasn't tight enough around my wrists. Just some things to expect. Battery life on 4 off-brand AA's lasted me roughly an hour. After that be prepared to swap them out which isn't very difficult to do inside the costume. A lot of reviews have been talking about quality issues namely the fan/battery compartment and the zipper. They are 100% low low quality in that respect so take caution when handling those items, they are prone to failure but if you keep your wits about you and be careful you shouldn't have any issues. The quality of the actual material held up very well. I rode a Onewheel hoverboard with the costume and the tail was dragging on hot asphalt/dirt/rocks for about an hour and contrary to what the person in the tagged video is saying, the suit did not in fact tear, it did get dirty though lol. The material is something you'd see in a cheap tent. Overall extremely pleased with the purchase, loved seeing the reactions of all the kids who thought it was very very cool. Expect people wanting photos, this costume is a GEM for the price honestly. It's TALL!"

"review_text": "I got this coatume as a birthday gift for my friend who is a huge attention monger. Of course he went nuts for it and immediate started wearing it everywhere. He loves it. Too much. He wants to wear it all the time and everywhere and if constantly harassing me to try to come up with new and attention grabbing things he can do in the costume. He had been skateboarding, bowling, rode a mechanical bull, ice skating, etc. the costume is pretty durable. But highly annoying to ME. Here are the pros: decent battery life. He's been in it for a constant 9 hrs with no loss of battery. Warm which is nice for cool climates. Children LOVE it. So do adults. Not easy to rip or tear.Cons: you will be stopped for photos every fewMinutes. Not asked for them, but literally yelled at, grabbed and harassed for photos by ADULTS WANTING SELFIES. No one will respectYour group or the fact that you are having a social night out with your friends. You are dealing with entitled adults who believe their wants and needs supersede anyone else's. Their picture is worth more than your boundaries. YOU WILL BE ASSAULTED. This is based on the testimony of 4 people I know with this costume. You will be hit, punched, smacked with sticks or objects, purposely have your tail stepped on, you will be squeezed to remove your air, and you will be grabbed. A lot. This is fair warning.Other than that, it's cute. It's fun. Kids love love love it. Adults can be a bit unruly."

"review_text": "I was somewhat concerned by some other reviews describing a fragile or defective product, but this one seemed to get decent reviews overall so I took the chance. I bought it primarily to wear as a complete surprise to my neighbors on Halloween.I ran, walked, dragged through shrubs and small tree branches, had my tail pulled, and put over a mile on concrete / asphalt on this suit and it held up very well. The appearance was good and the inflation worked as expected.PRO:Well worth it! I putthe costume on and took it off multiple times with zero issues. The zipper worked perfectly, the ankle and wrist elastic is tight and the blower works really well. The costume is light and has nice color / appearance. I doubt this is a \"rip-stop\" type of material, but it does have a feeling of durability of the costume fabric (some sort of woven plastic I guess?).I scrubbed my \"Dino head\" through multiple trees where they hung low over the sidewalk, with no damage. Tough product!CON:Maybe I went out too strong and got too hot / sweaty, but the clear panels fogged up repeatedly and stubbornly so that I had to wipe them down all the time. I ended up carrying a paper towel in one \"claw\" and then occasionally pulling that hand inside the costume to wipe the inside of the panel. While doing this, I'd just bunch up and seal the now-open armhole with my other hand, then re-extend my hand. This is another example of the durability of the product, as this takes some amount of force to push through the strong wrist elastic.The other issue is that there are two vision panels - one in the neck and the other in the bottom of the lower jaw. Between them is a seam. If you're running a lot and around 6' tall, this seam will kinda rub on your face / forehead. I ended up biting the seam and hanging on to keep it off my face. Again - fairly tough product to easily survive this.The tail drags the ground. I probably ran around for at least a mile on the sidewalk and in the street with no visible wear. Also, I had a couple kids grab my tail and hang on when I was running through yards, and since I didn't know it I just kept going and they were pulled over. Again, no damage to the costume."

"review_text": "These are number 5 and 6 of my dino collection! During the start of the pandemic I thought people needed to laugh and see something outside of the craziness soooooo I opted to start my collection of silly things. The first four dino's made it to a grocery store and Sam's club and we would call ahead to retirement homes and have the nurses let the residents know that we were going to be running around so they could get a little relief of the constant fear mongering that life was handing out! I had two child costumes and two adult. These have a lot of use in the pandemic and are still holding up very well after two years.The only drawback to them is that if you bend or squeeze the costume at all, the air has to be replenished sooooooo your dino head falls flat for a moment until you reinflate with the fan that runs constantly.I have had these on the pontoon boat for laughs also, they are quite large so only a few dino's will fit on a small boat.Best pandemic purchase EVER!!!!! Highly recommend the purchase as they do make people smile and bring laughter in a desperate time of need!!!P.S. Do NOT fart in one or it will become the only thing that you can breathe in! Your eyes will water and you may fall down."

"review_text": "my husband has wanted one of these costumes for years. finally they halved in price and I scooped one up for a surprise. he has worn it at least once a week since. after seeing it, one of his friends ordered one and now they do t-rex things together: go to the bar, the bowling alley. he took it dancing at a club, it was a huge hit for the 30 min he was able to wear it before he almost literally melted. it IS hot inside. you will be drenched in sweat if the temp is above 40. and even if it's not.. the suit will still be warm inside and the water will condense in the head of the dinosaur and occasionally rain on you. the windows fog up. still worth it.my 8 yr old has worn it to dance in our driveway for his brother's schoolbus, and to amuse people in our subdivision as they drive to work. you can see them cracking up in their cars, it's hilarious. when son wears it, the haunches pretty much rest on the ground and he can just see out the bottom of the chest window. husband is 6', wide shouldered and 240#. I knew we would be pushing the limits of the suit but it does fit. his shoulders are up inside the neck a bit which makes for a really tight fit. and the legs end a little lower than mid-calf, but the feet flopping down help hide that.they've been posting t-rex exploits on facebook and everyone I run into comments on how much they like it. I thought these were pretty popular costumes, but I'm surprised how many people have never seen them. my boss even got one after seeing the videos- for Halloween he stood still in his yard and pretended to be a blow up lawn decoration, then scared the crap out of people when they got near him. he's 5'9 and slight runner's build, it fits him perfectly.ONE CON: the seam above the zipper has let loose twice on our suit. I had seen this in the reviews. the first time I stitched it up and it ripped out again. the second time I stitched it up and also stitched the top of the zipper together (above the teeth, so it doesn't affect the working of the zipper at all). sewing thru the thicker material there holds everything together much better and that seam hasn't split since."

Takes 4 AA batteries; we had them on for about half an hour, and the fan was still blowing strong. After reading other reviews, I was afraid that the zipper would not hold; newerless, it worked fine and is attached securely. We walked around to see how it moves and scare the cats, hence the \"family picture\" 👍 my daughter is 8 therefore I was afraid it would be too small for her - turned out not an issue at all as it fits her nicely. Overall seems sturdy and, I believe, will serve it's purpose with flying colours."

"review_text": "Most stores in my area were selling the costume for $100, so at $69 delivered it was a great price. My 13yo is 5'5\" and it worked for him, although it would be a better fit for someone slightly taller as the viewing area would line up better with your face and the tail would have a little more room to fully inflate and lift off the ground. Not a flaw with the costume, but perhaps that helps with sizing questions. There is a children's version of the costume and I also saw a larger version for people over 6' tall. Happy Halloween!"

It was not the roar of a T-Rex - but the roar of my laughter.Getting into the new fun fat suit was a liberating experience in itself. I am now confident I can do yoga and play limbo no problem!So how does this thing stay inflated? Well let me tell ya. It is the costume version of a \"sauna\". From the moment, and I am being literal... the MOMENT you zip up, you are the rock that is steamed up! No concern of suffocation, there is constant outside air coming in to keep you puffy. I have dropped 10 pounds in three days! (pfffft, that’s not true)Be sure you and whoever else enters the suit - have fresh deodorant, breath mint, gum....Many reviews have talked about the heat produced. I took small ice packs and each pocket had on, I even had one in the top of my shirt. I remained cool and comfortable and was able to have some awesome city fun! (pictures attached)Product durability - everything seals up great! material is tough. (I decided to steam the material and I have to say this was a huge PLUS as the suit inflates so much better and the plastic to look through was easier to see through. Be careful on the plastic even with steam, it can melt)Product Cost - EXCELLENT (it was a gift lol) no really, the price is awesome!! This is truly a great buy with endless options to entertain myself, er I mean others.Product design and dimensions advertised - PERFECT (I am a decent size gal. 5'7 wearing between a 16-18 for pants, 1X for shirt.

"review_text": "\n The media could not be loaded.\n This inflatable dinosaur costume is awesome! I absolutely love it! Our whole family has had fun, chasing each other around in it, dancing, surprising delivery people, and lots of other silly stuff. The fed ex delivery guy had a good laugh and said it made his day when a T-Rex opened the door. He said he’s seen a lot of strange stuff while making deliveries, but it was the first time he’s ever delivered a package to a dinosaur. It’s hard not to have fun wearing this costume. It fit everyone from my daughter who is 5’2” tall to my husband who is 6’ tall. There were only a few features that I wasn’t crazy about, but they were definitely out numbered by the positive features and sheer fun of the costume. The arms are short and they are at an awkward height, but that’s just T-Rex anatomy. The “mittens” fit well and when tucked into the elastic on the end of the sleeves, they stayed on well. I found the costume surprisingly comfortable and easy to move around in once I got used to the arms. The fan is kind of loud but it inflates the costume quickly and keeps it inflated well. Having someone hold the head up while it is inflating until there is enough air for it to stand on its own helps . There is good airflow inside the costume once it is inflated. It can however get a little warm inside after a while if you are really active, especially running around outside in the summer. I really like the fact that there is a clip on the fan so you can clip it to the waist of your pants. It’s a little awkward if you aren’t wearing actually wearing pants (due to the heat in the summer) or if pants have an elastic waist. On those occasions, wearing a standard belt (regardless of the pants situation) worked. The costume has held up well . The material is lightweight, but feels durable like parachute material. The clear window is easy to see out of although the range of peripheral vision is very limited. I am very satisfied with this purchase and would buy another if for some reason we ever have a need for more than one T-Rex."

"review_text": "I bought this for my 10 year old son for his Halloween costume and this was hands down, my greatest (sober) Amazon purchase of all time. He's just shy of the 5 ft mark but it fit him perfectly, with plenty of room to grow. I even wore it to my job (a bank) on Halloween as the office dressed up, and we had clients, coworkers, and even our HR department in hysterics. The only real negatives I noticed (and these are all fairly minor) about this costume is that the battery pack requires a tiny screwdriver (I brought one to work lol), the ventilation in the costume is non-existent (yes, I know it has to be to keep it inflated), and that the batteries die fairly quickly; though I'm sure that could be debatable based on the battery brand used.Now my son and his best friend decided that they were going to terrorize the neighborhood as dinosaurs and his friend got the kids costume (where your face is exposed in the neck of the suit). His friend kept his on ALL night as the ventilation was perfect, but my son would constantly unzip his and walk with his face out - thus ruining the full effect. They ran around for HOURS and we did not notice any wear-and-tear on the tails from the asphalt or rough grounds. They hands down took the neighborhood's 'popular vote' in best costume and had many adults in literal tears as they watched them run up their driveways.This costume is definitely a humorous investment and has been worn numerous times since Halloween. Our dogs hate it, my cat is totally sketched out by it, and my son thinks it's the greatest thing since the X-box One came out.(Also, here's a video of the boys as they approach one house - you can hear the adults losing their minds over the costumes :)[...]"

"review_text": "This is the first halloween in my 35 years that I didn't wear something hand made. I just didn't have time this year, so I bought this.I have a degree in costuming, and I have to say I'm impressed. While there are a few small tweaks (like reinforcing the underside of the tail against abrasion, adding foot stirrups, and adding some ventilation holes in the mittens, which I would tack to the sleeves) I would make, overall I am very pleased.It looks really derpy, and I kinda love that. BUT you can make it look more scary and realistic if you lean forward. Bent at the hip till you are looking through the very top art of the face window, the shape actually resembles a dinosaur more than a cartoon. I did this a few times, but it's hard on the back. Mostly I embraced the derp.I had so much fun threatening all the other dinos at our halloween parade (you have to have a plan for meeting other people dressed just like you!). We amused many as we had tiny armed battles (our huge heads prevented any real contact) and a few decided to be friends and we danced, which more people loved.Some wearing notes: It's a bit of learning curve getting in without worrying you'll blow the zipper (I get my feet in, crouch down, and flip it over my head, then zip up) but once it inflates (a minute or so later) it's roomier than you'd guess in there. Tons of head room for me (5'6\") . Now here's the downsides: it's a greenhouse. In the sun, you are baking. The window fogs up and you can't see anything but colored blurs. There is no ventilation in the mittens, and they practically fill with sweat. I'm cold-blooded. I like being warm... This is a bit too warm for day use of more than an hour. At night it was GREAT. My feet got cold, but the rest of me was comfy.The fan gave me about 6 hours of battery life over 4 days of use. Not great, but sufficient. Be aware that you need a tiny screwdriver to change the batteries, so be prepared for this with spares and tools."

At first he was unsure, but once he understood I was not a real dinosaur, he enjoyed the lavish attention he got when hauling around this fake T-Rex.Pros: Gurenteed laughter on horseback, it looks like the dinosaur is eating the horses head when you bend down, helps desensitize horses.Cons: Can't see much of anything, it's hot, other horses fear you, not aerodynamic."

"review_text": "This costume was on my mind when I saw videos of people messing with it (on Facebook). This fit me with room to spare and I am 5'6, 216 lbs. it comes in a small package and unfolds into a sizable mess that looks like a tent at first. Once oriented, I found what looked like an exhaust port on the right side which turned out to be a fan that was incorporated into the costume. Obviously, it is an intake, not an exhaust (or you may suffocate), and so the fan blows air inwards and inflates the costume to a certain extant and then enough air seeps out through the elastic ankle and wrist holes which allow your hands and feet to exit the costume bubble you are in (so you do not have to worry about being overinflated and pop). You need to hunker down in order to get your legs and arms in the sleeves, but once inside, putting it on is a cinch. Just plug in the battery tray with 4 AA batteries (batteries not included) and wait a minute for the body, tail, and big head to perk up with air. There is a plastic window with a nylon net mesh that hides your face but slightly blurs your vision. The feet holes have flaps that hide your feet and footwear with 3 attached felt toenails on each foot. The dinosaur's teeth are also made of felt-like material. The 2 claw-gloves are made of the same non-breathable material, and therefore will likely get sweaty. They also kind of look like lobster pincers, so the claw-gloves would be my only real criticism of this costume. Other than that, the costume is a blast. Maybe not the best for costume parties because it does not have a \"casual mode\" where you can easily grab a drink or a bite to eat, but you can scare little children as the tall and hungry T-Rex."

I read like 85% it's great, totally worth it, it's awesome and like 15% was all bad especially having to do with the battery part another the zipper and also it being super thin so I was nervous but it's $50 and enough time before Halloween and I went for it. It got here today and I was SCARED so I started opening the box slowly took it out of the packaging it's thin but sturdy. Inspected the zipper worked GREAT!! NOW the biggest bad review the battery pack.... I proceed to unscrew the tiniest of screws and pop it open it's perfect everything intact and I place the batteries in it.... all I have to say is FUDGE YESSSSSSSS! IT IS A GREAT BUY FAST DELIVERY AND MY SON IS HAPPY!!Just be very careful putting it on because since it's a hunched dinosaur you got to kind of squat down get in the suit and then adjust yourself and zip it up should be on perfect!!!"

Motor works great, so good in fact that if you keep it on the whole time in costume, dino will be looking at the sky. I taped the viewing window down a little bit to avoid this.

"review_text": "First things first. I'm just under 6' tall, and I feel like that's the maximum height that can fit in this costume. I believe it is fair to say that this costume changed my life. The first time I put it on, I danced with my daughter, and my wife took video of it. I've only seen this video once, and I couldn't believe that was me in the costume. The second time I put it on, it was for my wife's birthday. I chased my daughter around the yard while we had a party outside.It's a bit challenging to get into, but it's a one person job. I toss the battery pack in my pocket before I start stepping into it. I attach the cord once I'm in it, just prior to zipping it up. It does get pretty darn hot in there, especially when you're dancing around in it and chasing kids around. Note that it does affect the length of your stride, so running in it is an exercise in silliness.I was hoping to take some selfies (sans mirror) in the costume, but my darn T-Rex arms are too short. The it dawned on me: Selfie sticks were invented for T-Rexes. Selfie sticks make no sense for silly humans, but make complete sense for T-Rexes. Amazon should offer a bundle with a selfie stick. That would be pure gold.I have a similar experience as another reviewer: I've had this costume on so long that my wife is considering leaving me. I offered to buy her a costume as well. That didn't go over so well."

"review_text": "I'm 5'8.9\" tall and weigh 190lbs. If you are wider than that, I would recommend the larger size. With my height, the fabric 'bar,' that is between the two windows will be right in front of your eyes and it is difficult to see. I did a 5k in it, so it fogged up and all of the condensation from me was everywhere. It is roughly 10-15 degrees hotter in the suit even with the mini fan blowing. It takes 4 AA's. I recommend putting pockets on a t-shirt to fit ice packs around your chest to keep you from over heating. The head stays straight up and doesn't bend down unless you bend over. Then the air will get cut off and it will deflate a bit. But, it was awesome for the price! I'm going to get the one that roars next time to complete the visual. Also, find color matching due tape to put under the tail to protect the fabric so that it doesn't scrape a hole in it. Other then that, have fun! It was a hoot!"

He could look out the lower viewing window. Seems decently durable. Made it though a couple hours of walking around and in and out of vehicle during Halloween. I am 5’7” and when I tried it on it fit fine. I was able to look through the upper panel.It was easy to use and figure out. It got tons of looks and my son had a blast.A few things I think they could improve on - a little more powerful fan. While yes it worked fine. It took a minute to re-inflate if he had to bend over for something.Only other issue was that there is a black mesh behind the plastic viewing pane- which helps hide your face. Only issue we ran into was that it was cold outside (approx 40 degrees) and it would fog up that viewing panel - since it had the black mesh on the inside it was kind of hard to wipe off. I would put my hand on the outside and my son would use his hair/head and push against my hand and wipe back and forth to wipe it off some. Also, once it was darker out he wasn’t able to see crap lol. While I must admit it was hilarious when he tripped and fell - (luckily he was fine). But that it one downside. Can’t see your feet and hard to see when it’s darker outside.Overall I would definitely recommend this because we had some good belly laughs with it and my son had a riot."

Also since the costume needs to be zipped up to work it does/will get foggy lowering visibility inside the costume.

I researched the smaller kid version of this costume and everyone said it was pretty small on kids that were over the age of like 5-7. Only complaint she had was that the plastic see though piece in the front fogged up too much while walking causing problems with her seeing. She also didnt like the mesh piece covering the plastic in the inside so we tore the mesh part out. Other then that she loved it. It kept her warm. She just put on some jeans and a sweatshirt underneath and she had no complaints of being cold.

I had a lot of fun, and once I got the hang of walking in it, it wasn't *that* uncomfortable. That said, don't expect to be comfortable in this. It takes awhile to figure it out (your head will be above the zipper you step through). There are two openings you can see through. At my height (5' 6\"), I felt like one was too high for me to see through and the other was too low.All that said, I still gave it 5 stars. You don't get a giant trex costume to be comfortable. That's what UGGs are for.My last bit of advice is it gets HOT in there, so this is a better bet for wearing somewhere cold than somewhere hot.

I got my son a smaller one and he and I wore them to the zoo and it was amazing how many people asked to take pictures with us... everywhere we went we would hear people burst out laughing.

On Halloween it was about 45 degrees out and I was wearing gym shorts and a sleeveless shirt and was still sweating inside. The visor would also fog up a lot, making it really hard to see. Haven't tried yet using any type of anti fogging supplementation, so hopefully that would help. even as hot as I got and as tight fitting this was for me (which I knew I would be pushing the limits when I bought it) this costume was amazing and was seriously some of the best money I ever spent.

We got a lot of laughs, a lot of compliments, a lot of people asking where they could buy it. I believe this will work another year or two if we put it away carefully."

"review_text": "Maybe it's because I'm 5'10 but my one complaint about this suit is that it is hard for me to see where I'm going--I am a bit taller than the lower viewing window, which fogged up for me when running around on Halloween anyway, so I had to have someone lead me around at times and steer me clear of low-hanging tree branches because I could really only see about 3 feet in front of me. It was still hilarious and our kids had a blast trick-or-treating with me jogging along behind them. The batteries and costume held up overall over a whole evening. I'll definitely wear it for as many Halloweens as I can, or whenever a costume is called for!"

We all laughed until we cried! When I got it I took it out of the package, installed the batteries, and tested it out to make sure it was all working properly so id have time to return and get a replacement if there were any problems. It worked perfectly! It did have installation instructions for the fan, but it was already installed when I got it. I don’t know if that’s something new they’re doing - or if mine was a return? Regardless, it works perfect, and we all had so much fun with it. It’s HUGE, and makes you SO TALL!! My daughter is only 5’2, and we got the standard adult size and it was totally fine - made her like over 7 feet tall!! Buy this - it’s super fun!"

Everyone (with the exception of my little 16 mth old nephew! Lol) was hysterical. The kids chased Mr. Rex, while the adults got such a laugh out of it. Absolutely awesome."

"review_text": "What a great costume. So much fun to wear!Pros:- hilarious and adorable- easy to put on (pro tip: put your upper body in first before stepping into the legs)- mine came with the fan already installed (just add the batteries to the battery pack and plug it into the fan! battery pack clips to a pocket or belt or pants waist)- decent price (saw it 50% cheaper here than other places)- seems like it will hold up well for at least a few seasonsCons:- gets hot/muggy inside fairly quickly if you're running around outside; isn't so bad if you're wearing it inside and just moseying around a party- VERY LIMITED VISION. You can see enough in a lit room to navigate yourself but good luck in a dark backyard at a Halloween party- No sitting while in the costume (it's inflated by the fan, so you'd either pop a hole or let all the air out via pressure from your behind)- I am average female height (5'6\") and I felt like the arms were just slightly short - there was routinely a strip of skin showing between the T-rex gloves and the T-rex arms; this could be a larger problem for a larger/longer personOverall a FANTASTIC PURCHASE! I spent Halloween posing for pictures with trick-or-treaters and faux-chasing cars down the sidewalk (much to their occupants' entertainment). Would definitely buy again!"

"review_text": "I love this T Rex costume. I wear it a lot. I’m 6 feet tall and it fits well, someone taller then me might could fit in it but not sure on that. I have bought 2 of these. The first one wore out after about 2 years of wearing it all over the United States. One time I did have to get out of it fast because I was in high elivation and started having trouble breathing. But I have also been able to run in it for about half a mile or so before I stopped because of condensation. The one thing to use caution of with this though is to be careful when getting out. If you aren’t careful you can rip the material by the zipper. I did this and just sewed it back. You just have to make sure to lean over to avoid this. Overall, I would buy this again (I actually did). The price seemed to fluctuate on here so watch it for a little while before buying to get the best price. It’s best to not buy it around Halloween because the price seems to be highest then."

"review_text": "I got a notification today that asked “Did Rubie’s Adult Official Jurassic World... meet your expectations?”. Meet? If I were to do a performance appraisal for this suit, you better bet that it would get an Exceeds Expectations status. This is the perfect way to make anyone laugh. I took it roller blading, and there were only three downsides: tail dragged, it got really hot (Naturally—I was exercising), and the window got foggy so couldn’t see (also due to the profuse sweat). Even with these drawbacks, it was worth the 30 minutes of random street paparazzi and laughs along the way. As you are probably not going to use this suit for the same reasons, you should buy it. If you can make one person laugh (including yourself), then it will be worth it. Buy now."

Was a big hit , I did a little dance,everyone said was the best custom , especially the kids really enjoy it and called me the dancing dinosaur, very realist ( a yorky dog originally was kind of starring then started barking nonstop).Easy to put on and take off.the included fan was easy to use.thanks for delivering on time so I could wear it on Halloween."

"review_text": "Well made. Inflates just great. Viewing window is large enough to get around safely. You have to duck to get into this, sort of step in to the leg holes, then back up into it so you're leaning forward, folded like a taco. Then slide your arms in. And as you straighten up, the customer found a place. I'm only 5'2\" tall and I don't think someone who's much taller than, say, 5'8\", would be able to fit into this, just for the squeezing in backwards part of it.I've traveled with this costume, and put it on in different circumstances, and it looks as good as the day I took it out of the package. It is a laugh riot, and worth every single penny."

I wore it with a tutu for mine and my boyfriend's 4 year anniversary and he about died laughing. I also wore it to mess with his 4 year old who's into dinosaurs, he loved it as well. It's so much fun to wear and making people smile and laugh made buying this so worth it. For thin (tarp like) material it does keep you rather warm on the inside. I recommend not wearing it on windy days because it'll makes it difficult to see and move around. I also recommend if you have long hair to have it pulled up when wearing this.Legal Disclaimer: I do not own the rights to the music in my video submission."
