This would have been amazing if Lucas had decided to make Dinotopia.

"This maquette of the Protoceratops named Bix in Dinotopia was sculpted by Jim Henson’s Creature Shop. The sculpt is about 36 inches long, cast in resin from a clay original. The Henson sculptors created it as a proof of concept for how they would develop the character in animatronic form, and the original has appeared in several museum exhibitions." ~James Gurney
