I have had dealings with China before. If the fossil is original or a composite, you will still need an export licence from the Chinese government to be able to take the fossil out of the country. Take care, there are a lot of composites and retouched fossils about in this area.

I agree, the claws look more real than the body, but I’m not sure.
