Meet the meat-eating bull. Carnotaurus roamed what is now Patagonia near the very end of the age of dinosaurs, wearing a pair of stubby horns above its eyes and arms so short they barely mattered. Our figure keeps every signature detail — the horns, the pebbly skin, the comically tiny hands — and wraps them in a round, tiger-striped body.
A Bull, by Name
Carnotaurus means ‘meat-eating bull,’ after the two thick, cone-shaped horns that sat above its eyes. Nobody knows for sure what they were for — display, sparring, or both.
Arms? Barely.
Its forearm was only about a quarter the length of its upper arm, giving it proportionally the shortest forelimbs of any large meat-eating dinosaur. The figure’s tiny hands are a loving nod to that.
We Know Its Skin
Carnotaurus was one of the first meat-eating dinosaurs found with large patches of fossil skin: small, non-overlapping scales with rows of bigger bumps along the sides. That pebbled texture is sculpted all over the figure.
One Famous Skeleton
Almost everything we know comes from a single skeleton found in Argentina in 1984. Its powerful tail muscles have led some scientists to suggest it was one of the fastest big theropods.
