PRODUCT DETAILS
What's in the Box
- Purple inflatable T-Rex costume with printed scale texture
- Battery-operated fan unit (requires 4 AA batteries, not included)
- Dark grey dinosaur gloves matching the claws
This Kids Purple T-Rex Inflatable Costume transforms your child into a towering purple dinosaur with an open-jaw grin, yellow eyes, and a sweeping tail. The battery-powered fan keeps the suit inflated the whole time they're wearing it — walking around as a full-sized T-Rex is guaranteed to get laughs at any school event.
The fabric is lightweight with a glossy purple finish and printed black-and-pink scale details that run across the body, legs, and tail. Red mouth interior and white pointed teeth give the head plenty of character. Dark grey claws on the feet and matching gloves finish the prehistoric look. Elastic gathers at the wrists, ankles, and waist keep the air sealed in so the shape holds strong.
Perfect For
Book Week & Dinosaur Themes: A natural pick for any prehistoric book character — pairs with dinosaur encyclopedias, Jurassic adventure stories, or science projects about ancient animals.
Halloween & Costume Parties: The oversized inflatable silhouette makes this a crowd favourite at trick-or-treating, birthday parties, or school Halloween parades.
Casual Dress-Up & Play: Kids love wearing this around the house or backyard — the comedic waddle and tail-drag are half the fun.
How to Wear It
Slip the costume on over regular clothes, zip it up, turn on the fan, and let it inflate. The fan runs the whole time they're wearing it (battery life is about 4–6 hours depending on the batteries). Wear comfortable sneakers — the clawed feet cover the shoes but don't replace them.
Parent FAQs
Q: What size should I order?
A: This costume is designed for kids 100–140 cm tall (roughly ages 5–10). It's one-size-fits-most within that range — the inflatable design expands around the child's frame regardless of exact height.
Q: Can they wear this indoors or for long periods?
A: Yes, the fan keeps air circulating so it doesn't get stuffy. For indoor wear, make sure doorways are wide enough — the inflated width is about 80–90 cm including the tail sweep.
Q: How do I wash this? Is the fabric durable?
A: Wipe down with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Don't submerge or machine wash — the fan unit and battery pack aren't waterproof. The nylon fabric is fairly robust but avoid sharp objects that could puncture it.
Q: Do I need to buy batteries separately?
A: Yes, you'll need 4 AA batteries (not included). The battery pack compartment requires a small screwdriver to open, so have that ready when you unbox it.
Care: Spot-clean only; deflate and store flat when not in use.
