``Triceratops restoration puzzle'' review that you can learn more about ``Triceratops'', a representative of herbivorous dinosaurs, while playing
From MegaHouse's 'Demolition Puzzle' series, a three-dimensional puzzle ' Triceratops Restoration Puzzle ' that shows the structure of the body of Triceratops at a glance has appeared. I actually played this puzzle that can make a restored model using 34 disjointed parts.

The package of 'Triceratops Restoration Puzzle' looks like this.
Inside, the parts are subdivided like this.
Each part is a body part ......
internal organs
Divided into bone parts. The material of the parts is PVC (polyvinyl chloride).
A 'data book' is also included, so you can learn more about the living body of Triceratops. The data book also serves as an assembly guide, and basically you will assemble it while looking at it.
First, assemble the body parts that correspond to the outermost part. There are some holes in the body parts like this ... ...
We will assemble by inserting parts with protrusions that match the holes. It feels a little stiff and some parts require a little effort to assemble.
When you connect the two parts together, it looks like this.
I will put the parts of the internal organs in this. The parts that correspond to the torso have the same grooves as the internal organs. By the way, the part you have in your hand in the picture below is the 'stomach'.
Fit parts such as 'intestines', 'liver', 'air sac', 'heart' ... ...
Once the 'brain' and 'tongue' are fitted, the internal organs are complete.
Next, we will work on the bone parts, but it is important to look at the data book carefully, as some bones are assembled in a slightly complicated way, such as connecting bones together.
First of all, from the easy-to-understand 'tail vertebrae'. This is also assembled by pushing it into the hole in the body part.
The ilium, pubic bone, and ischium are pushed into the sacral spine.
I also put in small parts such as the 'sternum' under the chest, and rest here for a while.
In order to attach the body parts that correspond to the 'legs', first attach the abdominal parts ......
Then add the front and back legs and you're done.
I will attach the bone parts again. The following 'femur (roughly) bone' is an important part that connects the hole in the 'iliac, pubic bone, ischium' and the hind legs attached earlier. Install carefully.
Then, attach the 'metacarpals and phalanges' of the forefoot to complete the bones.
After that, attach the parts of the right half of the body ......
It is completed with 'horn' attached.
When you put everything together it will look something like this. It stands stably on its four legs.
Looking from the other side it looks like this.
The point of 'dismantling puzzles' is that 'the order of assembly is only roughly determined'. You have to assemble it yourself by trial and error without a detailed order such as always attaching 'kidney' next to 'lung', so you may have to redo it several times while you are not used to it. While picking up many parts in this way, you can naturally come into contact with the structure of the body. The Triceratops Restoration Puzzle, which allows you to know the 'contents' of Triceratops, which can be said to be a representative herbivorous dinosaur, is a toy that not only gives you the fun of puzzles, but also gives you new knowledge about Triceratops.
The price of the Triceratops restoration puzzle sold at Amazon.co.jp is 1290 yen including tax.
