From a 'Big Things in Oz' site: (visit link)
"Originally made as a float for the 1998 Apple & Grape Festival when the local shopkeeper’s daughter was a queen entrant. After the festival the community put it by the roadside in front of the Ballandean railway station to stop passing traffic in a bid to sell fruit as a fundraiser for the local football club. It soon became a major attraction"
"Size: 2.1m x 6.7m"

Also, (visit link) "Fruitisforus, the Ballandean Dinosaur, made a surprise return to the Apple and Grape Harvest Festival, all put back together after a recent run in with a car."
