Trunki Glide Ride-on Luggage - Dylan the Dragon
For the child who has strong feelings about dragons, Dylan is the argument that wins. The coral body with cream horns, a pebbled dragon-scale frill along the sides and triangular tooth detailing at the base is a full character design, not just a colour swap. For a child in the 3-6 age range who is deep into dragons, dinosaurs or fantasy creatures, there is no competitor at this price point that offers the same combination of real luggage function and genuine character identity.
What makes Dylan worth the premium over the solid Trunkis
The Trunki Glide range sits across two price points: $99.95 for the solid colours and classic brand characters like Terrance, and $129.95 for the character-designed versions like Dylan. The honest reason for the premium is the moulding complexity. Dylan's pebbled frill, the triangular tooth detail running along the lower body, the shaped horns - these are more involved to produce than a plain-colour shell. The specs underneath are identical to the rest of the Trunki Glide range.
Dylan's 18 litre clamshell at 46 x 20.5 x 31cm fits most airline carry-on and underseat requirements. The smooth glide castor wheels handle airport concourses and hotel corridors with steering rather than straight-line rolling. Inside: elastic X-straps, mesh pocket with safety strap, dual side locks. Tow strap for tired legs, carry strap for stairs. 1.7kg unloaded, 50kg maximum ride-on weight, 5-year guarantee, sticker pack included.

About Trunki
Trunki is a British design icon, founded by Rob Law in 2003. Trunki ride-on suitcases turned the airport experience for families upside down: kids ride or are towed, parents save their arms, and the suitcase carries up to 50kg of small human while looking nothing like luggage. Loved by families in 100 and more countries.
Why is Dylan more expensive than Terrance or the solid colours?
The $30 difference between character-designed Trunkis and the solid or classic versions comes down to moulding complexity. Dylan's design includes a pebbled dragon-scale frill, shaped tooth detailing along the base, and formed horns. The luggage specs are identical - same 18-litre capacity, glide wheels, tow strap and five-year guarantee.
What age is Dylan the Dragon suitable for?
Suitable from 3 years up. The maximum ride-on weight is 50kg. The 18 litre capacity is practical for a week away or a weekend sleepover - kids that age will genuinely want to pack their own bag if the suitcase is a dragon.
Can Dylan be used as cabin luggage on a plane?
Yes - at 46 x 20.5 x 31cm, Dylan fits most airline carry-on and underseat dimensions. Check the Trunki Airline Checklist before flying, particularly for budget airlines.
Will the dragon detailing fade or scratch?
The pebbled frill and tooth detailing are moulded into the hard plastic shell rather than painted on, so they will not fade. Surface scuffs from airport floors can occur - a damp cloth handles most everyday marks.
How does the tow strap work?
The tow strap attaches to the horn handles and extends for a parent to pull the suitcase through airports and hotel corridors. It also serves as a carry handle for stairs and overhead racks.
