The 4 Foot Heirloom Dragon.

"Extending 48"" from the tip of its plush horned snout to its padded spiked tail, this is the handcrafted ride-on dragon worthy of years--or ages--of play. Capable of manifesting any conceivable fantasy role a child might envision--trusted steed, village menace, wish granter, treasure guardian--it is built with a structural steel frame that supports a rider up to 150 lbs. Meticulously constructed by artists, each unique serpentine companion is created from 129 individual pieces that are made from a custom-designed fabric ""hide"" hand sewn using an ""inside out"" stitching method that minimizes visible seams. Its carefully sculpted body provides realistic musculature and shape while delicate airbrushing brings out subtle color differences, replicating all the iconic details of the legendary beast, including its reptilian ears, dorsal spines, webbed wings, and armored scales. Its aggressive, wide stance suggests ancient strength, yet its soulful eyes and toothless, pink-lipped, forked-tongued mouth assigns benevolence appropriate for a bedroom or playroom companion. Ages 3 and up. 48"" L x 36"" W x 46"" H. (30 lbs.)"
