Created by Stan Winston Studios, the piece was created after production as a display-room piece for Winston Studios' conference room and represents the scene in which Nedry (Wayne Knight) had a lethal encounter with the seemingly harmless dilophosaurus. The piece appears in photos of Winston's conference room, which was lined with display versions of many of his memorable characters. Cast from the original molds, the dilophosaurus is made of sturdy polyfoam that features a scaly texture throughout the body and head that is hand-painted to exhibit the dulled reptilian coloring throughout the body and face. The eyes of the creature are acrylic and the sharp teeth within its open jaw are made of resin that have been purposefully distressed and discolored. The creature's neck frill is on full display and illustrates a feather-like texture. The figure is presented on a base that features faux greenery and foliage, soil, and rock-like formations. A wooden "danger" leans next to the dino emphasizing the requirement of goggles in the area, hinting at the Dilophosaurus' venomous spit that is seen in the film. A Barbasol shaving cream can is also fixed to the base of the display and is hidden in the green foliage. The display shows minimal signs of wear from age, but remains in excellent condition.
