It seems you can buy just about anything on the internet these days, and here’s another bit of proof to put on the pile. What’s the one thing you could add to your home and garden that would make you stand out among your neighbors?
You got it; an 18 meter (59’) tall, 3 ton (2205 lbs) Brachiosaurus statue.
Every dinosaur statue enthusiast in a 5 mile radius is sure to go wild over your latest edition. This replica of one of the largest known dinosaurs is expertly crafted to fit neatly in a 25.5m2 footprint on your lawn.
Made by the company Dream Figure who also make statues of several other smaller dinosaurs like Tyrannosaurus Rexes, Velociraptors and Mike Tyson, it’s made to order meaning you’ll have to wait about a month for this bundle of joy to arrive on your doorstep.
It’s currently being sold over Yahoo! Japan’s shopping page for the slim price of 7.2 million yen (US$91,000). It’s a small price to pay for the gift that keeps on giving. For example, owning one of these will answer infinite mysteries such as; “How the hell do they deliver this thing?” or “How the hell do you wash this thing?”
One thing is for sure, this brachiosaurus replica will make you an instant celebrity in your community. Watching TV these days it seems like no one cares what they’re famous for anyways, so you might as well be famous for having a life sized dinosaur standing on your property.
