The new for 2024 Eofauna T. rex model is due into Everything Dinosaur in the next few weeks.  This 1:35 scale figure is based on a Tyrannosaurus rex specimen nicknamed “Sue”.  This is the second theropod model to be added to the Eofauna Scientific Research range.  A Giganotosaurus carolinii model was introduced in 2019.  The new Eofauna T. rex figure is supplied with a removeable display base.

The “Sue” T. rex fossil specimen was discovered on the 12th of August 1990, by Sue Hendrickson. Extensive excavation and careful preparation resulted in a substantial proportion of the skeleton being saved. The specimen has the formal name FMNH PR 2081. It is one of the most complete and extensively researched of all the large tyrannosaur specimens known. This Tyrannosaurus rex is on permanent display at the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago (Illinois).

The design team at Eofauna based their figure on a reconstruction of the Field Museum fossils.  They started with the dinosaur skeleton, added the musculature and finally the surface features such as scales, claws and teeth.

The new Eofauna Tyrannosaurus rex figure is based on an actual tyrannosaur specimen (FMNH PR2081).
