I believe Marlene is correct.

It's probably part of the family ceratopsidae, however, I don't think it is a triceratops. Triceratops has a much simpler horn arrangement and head structure.

When I was a kid I used to ride ones like that.

But that was a long time ago.

I say it's not a triceratops, they have 3 horns. Tri-3

It's probably a member of the Ceratopsia family from what I could find.

Pachyrhinosaurus seems closer... but still not exact.

I sold many dinosaurs on e-bay about 200 or more
This one is not scientifically accurate dinosaur
One of the Ceratopsians sort of. It looks like someone made it up the figure.

That is a motherinlawosaurus.

He is joking,
I sold this to e-bay, This is a Triceratops nothing like you have up there.
I would said Ceratopsians (meaning Horned face) I would just say "Horned face"

I'd call it Minitoysaurus. As with all displays/models, its just someone's interpretation of what they think it might have looked like. The assembled bones may have defined it more if there are any for this model. The more skeletons they find, the more they can not decide if they were cold blooded, warm blooded, wrong posture, wrong age, etc. Some have had so few real bones, they make up and construct the rest with a s.w.a.g. and find out later its nowhere near what they thought. Whoever interpreted this, didn't agree with anyone else's interpretation of whatever it is supposed to represent.

You are SO right, Marlene!!! hehe! LOL, Robert Frederick! HW Kateley... you are too funny! Thanks all!

The dinosaur in the OP has claws. The triceratops has feet like elephants.

Maybe Nobodysaurus
