Raptor Suit

By Evan Ackerman

High on my list of things to get when I’m rich and famous would have to be this full size, wearable raptor suit. It was created for the excellent BBC miniseries Walking With Dinosaurs, which combined CG, animatronic, and apparently wearable dinosaurs to create a very well done (and fantastically expensive) mesozoic documentary. This video shows both the animatronic and the wearable dinos at various stages of completion along with an exceedingly loud and dramatic soundtrack.

A couple more videos available here. You can rent the Walking With Dinosaurs series from somewhere like Netflix, or buy it from Amazon, among other places.
