Sideshow Collectibles is proud to bring you the latest addition to our acclaimed Dinosauria collection, the Triceratops Statue.
With a name that means “three-horned face”, Triceratops is one of the most famous dinosaurs, and one of the last ever to walk the Earth. Thought to have been hunted by the Tyrannosaurus Rex, the massive barrel-ribbed herbivore used its spectacular brow horns and broad curving neck frill to protect itself from predators. Designed with the insight of renowned paleoartists, Sideshow's artists have captured the magnitude and grace of the Triceratops with impressive realism. Cast in polystone on a themed base, this museum quality piece is guaranteed to capture the imagination of dinosaur enthusiasts.

Triceratops is a genus of herbivorous ceratopsid dinosaur that first appeared during the late Maastrichtian stage of the late Cretaceous period, about 68 million years ago (Mya) in what is now North America. It is one of the last known non-avian dinosaur genera, and became extinct in the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event 66 million years ago. The term Triceratops, which literally means “three-horned face”, is derived from the Greek τρί- (tri-) meaning “three”, κέρας (kéras) meaning “horn”, and ὤψ (ops) meaning “face”
