Assemble me. Awaken the Three-horned Beast!

Ugears adds a new beast to its dinosaur automaton collection with the Triceratops ("three-horned face"), a dynamic, mechanical DIY wooden model of the dominant herbivore of the late Cretaceous period. Up to 9 meters in length and 9 metric tonnes in weight, Triceratops roamed the prairies of what is now North America some 68 million years ago, grazing on low-growing vegetation with their sharp, parrot-like beak. Their most identifiable features are the large skull (roughly one third of the total body length!), the large horns above the eye sockets, measuring up to 1 meter in length, and the large bony frill on top of the skull. 

The Ugears Triceratops is a wind-up DIY wooden 1:32 scale model of a full-grown Triceratops. The model is driven by a metal spring which transmits power through a reduction gear, turning the axle that drives the four legs. A winding key is concealed between the dinosaur's shoulder blades. Remove the key and insert into either of the circular ratchet mechanisms located on either side of the dinosaur's belly. Press the "Stop" switch and give six or seven full twists of the key to wind the spring. Place the Triceratops on a smooth, flat surface, holding the automaton gently by the tail, push the "Start" switch down, and release. Your Triceratops will saunter away, its tail swinging jauntily, its enormous head and frill bobbing and its jaws snapping.
