20 Most Recent Dinosaur D-rex Interactive Dinosaur By Mattel Questions & Answers

Looks like anyone with a defective d-rex is out of luck. Bought mine at a thrift store cheap, without the remote. It did show some signs of life when I put batteries in it so I started looking for a remote. I only found them on eBay where people were asking as much as $100 for one. I finally settled on one for about $40 hoping that was all I needed. It lights up when I push the buttons but the d-rex doesn’t respond now, in fact it doesn’t show any signs of life now when I put good batteries in and turn it on. I’m pretty mechanically inclined, so I might try fixing it but that will require surgically removing the skin and hoping I can get it back on when I’m done. I’d love to hear from anyone else who’s tried it.

Look on ebay

Check this link. http://service.mattel.com/instruction_sheets/R9415-0920.pdfIf that doesn't work then go to service.mattel.com and search "D Rex". A manual is available in the search results.

I went to Mattel's web page, typed in D-Rex control bone, in the search area, and they came up. There are two different models so make sure you get the right control bone for your D-Rex.

Im having the exact same problem locating a replacement bone. Have you found one yet? If you have found one please contact me at [email protected]. Thank you for your time!

I would like to know the same, We have been trying to put one together and half the instructions are correct, then it changes and none of the pieces are the same as the manual? Are you having the same problem?
