The dinosaur, like many of the nBatcave "trophies," is a relic from the Pre-Crisis Batman stories. Since the Crisis, the stories in which many of those trophies were gained are no longer part of continuity, but they're still in the cave. The dinosaur is a robot Batman encountered while investigating a murder on Dinosaur Island in Batman #35. The most recent item added to the trophies is the sword of Deathstroke the Terminator, which Batman took from the assassin when he tried to fulfill a contract in Gotham in Detective Comics #710.

There is one newer, although it wasn't collected as a trophy like the rest of them: the baseball bat that "took down the Green Lantern," given to him by Alan Scott in Detective #786.

I thought about that one, but I haven't actually seen it in the cave since that storyline. Deathstroke's sword has turned up a couple of times, so I just went with that.

Fair enough Smile

Most artists would probably just skip it anyway. I just rememeber it because it's one of the items I plan to add to my cave diorama.

Yeah, I was disappointed that it's apparently forgotten by the writers. That was a pretty good story.

I think that you mean Bruce Wayne: Murderer and Bruce Wayne: Fugitive. They are stories that started off really good, but the ending fell flat. They are worth a read though.

Yes!
Bruce Wayne: Murderer and Bruce Wayne: Fugitive. Thats it. I'll give them a try.
Thank you, Darknight.
So far, all the comics you guys recommended were great.

The Murderer/fugitive trades have some great moments, but they mostly serve as an example of how the Batbooks floundered creatively for years after Denny O'Neil departed as group editor. I'd still say it's worth reading, but like DK said, be prepared for an underwhelming final act. The best moments all come in the Bruce Wayne: Murderer trade anyway, particularly the issue that shows how Bruce handles being in prison.

Yeah, by that I menat most of Fugitive: vol3 three, which wraps the whole thing up. Not bad, just underwhelming after all the buildup and hype.
