If you’re looking towards Southsea and see what looks like a dinosaur head popping up looking back at you, don’t get over-disturbed. You’re not seeing things.
A life-sized model of the fictional Ultrasauros will be taking up residence on Southsea Common and as it’s going to be 53ft (16m) tall, it should be visible from the Isle of Wight.
Six pieces
The huge sculpture arrived in the UK after the six pieces that make it up were transported nearly 2,000 miles by ship and lorry from Serbia to Southsea.
That’s where the BBC says its steel skeleton and hard polyester shell was created by a team Serbian car factory workers.
Let’s hope that the massive creature won’t distract the car drivers around there – otherwise they could end up creating a Tyrannosaurus wreck (Sorry – couldn’t resist!).
