Tyrannosaurus rex 3D Accurate Scale Model Kit

Tyrannosaurus rex is probably the most popular dinosaur, its proportions have fascinated experts and fans for decades. This deluxe model is based on the fossil FMNH PR 2081, popularly known as “Sue”, which is one of the most complete T. rex skeletons of the more than 30 found to date.

In real life, Tyrannosaurus rex’s long, muscular tail served as a counterweight to its huge, heavy skull. In fossil-based bone reconstructions there is no such musculature, and the front part of the skeletons is supported by a support. To avoid breaking the harmony of the model, a tension support with the help of a thread that is included in the packaging helps hold the model's shape together.

This Tyrannosaurus rex has the typical theropod stance and over time takes on a stalking look leaning slightly forward once the wood rests. With this model you can decide whether to wait for time to do its job until you take it to the stalking position or to maintain it with the initial upright position with the help of the tension support.

• Features included in this deluxe version include the following:
  • Backwards leaning ribs.
  • Several layers in the leg pieces to achieve the volume that these huge bones had.
  • Includes a base engraved with the name of the species and the scale in which it is designed.
  • It has the typical curvature of the ilium bones of the hip.

The jaw, the base of the skull and the tail are articulated in 3 sections to achieve a good curving effect. All these details make this model enjoy a completely surprising realism in this type of buildable models.

This model has been exhibited at the National Museum of Natural History in Santiago de Chile.
