Since Dinotopia doesn’t exist, you may have have been forced to push aside your dream of hitching a ride to work on a T.Rex. However, if you have a picture of yourself in the straddling position (STRADDLING, not humping), you can at least get a glimpse of the experience without having to know a thing about Photoshop. Simply upload your pic to Dinoprints and they’ll give you a 24″ x 36″ print of yourself atop a Tyrannosaurs, Spinosaurus or Wooly Mammoth. If you want, you can even upload a picture of your pet.
Hit the jump to check out a selection of the $50 prints. More dino options are expected in the near future.

If you don’t live in Montana where dinosaurs can be found in your backyard, then get the next best thing and order this 11ft tall T-Rex from Design Toscano who describe the thunder lizard as:
“Realistically sculpted with rows of menacing teeth, a fearsome tail and scaly skin, our prehistoric artifact is cast in quality designer resin and hand-painted with powerfully convincing color and texture. This display-quality sculpture transforms any home, garden, restaurant or hotel into something truly magnificent!”
If the transformation they speak of consists in your neighbor’s kid soiling himself in terror on your front yard, then yes, it will be a “truly magnificent” addition.

Was there ever a morbidly obese dinosaur? Some how I doubt it, but this plush T-Rex is certainly going to be soft and squeezable. I mean, how is he still hunting at this point? Does he roll over his prey like a bowling ball? With those little arms, it would be impossible to get back on your feet if you didn’t have enough momentum while rolling. I know the T-Rex had small arms, but this dude can’t even sensually rub his nipples.

Even though they probably walked through their own feces without a second thought, dinosaur feet have been tapped to help feed the world Chinese food in the form of chop sticks. No doubt these were modeled after fossils of rare dinosaurs unearthed around Coney Island.

Your Christmas tree ornaments don’t have to be all about snowmen and angels. A dinosaur egg that is in the middle of hatching gives the holiday a whole different feeling. Think about how much more fun all of the Christmas specials would be if there were raptors running loose in all of them.

These pillows offer customizable colors and allow you to choose between classic acronyms such as: WTF, BBIAF, OMG, or FTW. However, if you’ve ever wanted a dinosaur to mock your sexual performance or gaming skills in text, then the LOL pillow pictured above has you covered.

Dinosaur skulls aren’t so elusive when you only have to excavate a credit card from your wallet and type “Etsy” into a search engine. Those tireless efforts will put you on the path to getting your very own hand-crocheted 12 1/2″ x 9″ skull which is made from acrylic yarn, paint and plaster, then sprayed with matte medium to prevent crumbling. Certainly, a skeletal composition like that leaves no doubt as to why this species would have gone the way of the Dodo.

Your kids may use these door hangers to threaten you with lost hands or a dinosaur ass kicking if you decide to enter their room, but once you realize that T-Rex has been extinct for 65 million years, you’ll know that any violence that lies behind that door will be coming from your own disobedient little monster. I don’t know which would be more frightening.

One would think that a T-Rex would be something you would need protection from, but in the case of these soft, squeezable night lights, it’s the dinosaurs that keep you safe. When fully charged, these night lights will glow and change colors for up to 8 hours. They can also be removed from the base station and carried around as a toy. Additional dinosaurs are pictured after the break.

The T-Rex on this car emblem has in his hands the fish you see on all sorts of vehicles. The Jesus fish has been used for years as a symbol of Christianity though I don’t think this dinosaur cares at all what your religious views are. All he sees is a tasty snack. Judging by the size comparison that is one giant fish, but this emblem will easily fit on any make or model of vehicle.
