Not sure about all the bad reviews about the fit. Maybe it's because we ordered Velociraptor vs. Rex? Maybe my child has a small head? My daughter is almost 9 years old, 52 inches tall, 55 pounds. Fits perfectly. Her head slipped easily through the hole. It looks great and she says it's very comfortable. Excited for Halloween! I hope this helps someone with a similar sized baby as we haven't had any fit issues.
