Giganotosaurus

This deadly dino will make a great present for a 4-year old boy. It’s a highly detailed, hand-painted figurine, perfect for creative pretend play. Giganotosaurus was a fearsome dinosaur, measuring up to 13 metres long and weighing up to 14 tonnes! Each of their teeth was around eight inches long. Luckily, this figurine from Schleich is far less deadly – an ideal present for the dino-lover in your life.
