“No cost savings are being made in terms of detail,” Jurassic Quest Drive-Thru CEO Adam Friedman said. ‘It’s lifelike, by scale, even the surfaces and their skin. Some have feathers, others have a rubbery texture. We do all the research and if we have these things designed and manufactured, we make sure that they are accurate and to scale. ”
The exhibit is expected to visit various locations in the Los Angeles and Orange County area by the end of February.
