A Cynidiognathus maquette from Jim Danforth's unproduced stop-motion time travel adventure Timegate. The film was to center on a group of hunters who traveled back in time to poach dinosaurs. This maquette for a Cynidiognathus was created by one of the film's animation experts, Phil Tippett, before production on the film was scrapped.

This reptilian resin maquette is hand-painted in shades of green with black eyes, molded around a static metal armature, and mounted to a wooden display base signed "Cynidiognathus therapsid (Trias) - P. Tippett 77." It is fragile, but in fair overall condition with the end of its tail and some toes snapped off. Includes a letter of authenticity from Phil Tippett.

Dimensions: 10 1/2" x 6" x 4" (26.75 cm x 15.25 cm x 10.25 cm)

Estimate: $800 - 1,200
