The Edmontonia weighed almost 4 tonnes and grew up to 7 metres long. Its name comes from the place where its first complete skeleton was found: the Edmonton rock formation in Albert, Canada. Edmontonia lived in the late chalk time. (translated)

Collecting the Edmontonia
The Edmontonia is one of the rarer Series 2 sets to collect, and can be quite difficult to attain. I reccommend purchasing a MIB copy, as its many components can be easily lost/damaged, making it harder to collect loose.

The dinosaur is easy to identify, and looks quite impressive up against some of the smaller figures. Its intricate detailing makes up for its lack of articulation (the four legs can be moved, but not much). The Edmontonia's spikes, tail and snout sustain the most play-wear.

Axis has brown hair, blue eyes, a brown/aqua shirt, brown pants, brown boots, and silver attachments. Look for wear in the usual areas.

The Edmontonia's armour is made up of many pieces, but luckily they are attached as one single unit. This unit includes the cockpit, front and side armour, armour trigger, and swinging arms. Like all Dino-Rider sets, the silver armour is easily scratched.

Separate from the main armour are the front lasers, gun tips and belly straps. You may have a hard time gathering enough gun tips, as they are made up of 3 different styles which aren't found on any other Dino-Riders - keep your eyes peeled! The guns themselves can break off easily, and the belly bands can snap in an instant, due to them having to be pulled so tight across the Edmontonia's body.

Tyco 1990 Catalogue: Authentic 1/24th scale Edmontonia is the Dino-Riders' combat-ready sentry post! Heroic Axis repels Rulon attacks with flip-up armor. Battle action Bumpers create a defense no Rulon can penetrate. Features long-range laser cannons and a rear navigator's seat.

Edmontonia Notes
The pre-production Edmontonia differs from the final version in 4 major ways. First, the blue harness area is black. Secondly the guns are also black and a completely different mould. Finally, the belly strap is one four-ended piece, as opposed to the two double-ended straps.
