Realistic T-Rex Dinosaur Figurine, Dinosaurs Collection, Kids Ages 3+ | Educational play about prehistory | 32 cm long | shown mid-run | hand-painted | a great gift idea for girls and boys too

I've bought the entire Papo T. rex family: the green walking rex, a more upright brown rex and two baby rexes: one green and one brown. Some paleontologists have speculated that females might have been larger than males, so I named the larger brown rex "Sue" after the famous fossil and the slightly smaller green rex "Fang" because he has a bottom tooth that sticks out. This tooth (had he been a full-sized, living dinosaur) would have created a space between his teeth and a "slot" in his premaxilla similar to the fourth tooth slot found on the jaws of crocodiles. "Fang" has a space between his teeth and a slot in his upper jaw for his crooked bottom tooth. Now that's a toy with personality! All of the models are fairly accurate and very detailed with good paint jobs, which is pretty amazing considering they are mass-produced. I have only a few minor complaints / suggestions: 1) The green "running" T. rex looks like he's walking, not running. Big whoop. You can decide for yourself by looking at the picture. 2) I am actually surprised at how well my walking T. rex balances. Maybe I just got a good one or balance is less of an issue for me. Still, a little one might get frustrated by how easily the walking dino topples. 3) The paint job on Papo dinos seems to scratch more easily than the paint job on Schleich dinos. (Schleich comes in second behind Papo when it comes to detail and believable paint jobs.) I didn't notice this right away because my dinos sit on a shelf and serve as models for my paleo art. My five-year-old cousin, on the other hand, is pretty rough on her dinos. I gave her a brown Papo T. rex on a Friday and by the end of the weekend she had managed to scuff him up so the underlying pinkish-brown color showed through on his eyebrows, nose and other vulnerable body parts. 4) T. rex probably had at least a few feathers for display purposes. This would not detract from their fearsomeness. It's about time toys started reflecting what we know about dinosaurs. 5) Almost every single toy gets the hand orientation wrong. The arms of most theropod dinosaurs would have functioned similarly to wings. The elbows and wrists had hinge joints that were more or less parallel to one other. With hands held out straight in front, the palms would have faced one another. 6) The green T. rex totally needs a small prey item to dangle from his mouth. When the Papo T. rex family is together, the babies are looking up, begging for food. The upright T. rex guards the babies while the green T. rex brings food. Therefore, the green rex *needs* a detailed, contemporaneous prey item that fits perfectly in his teeth! Papo, please make one for him. 7) The jaw on the walking T. rex is floppier than the jaws on the other T. rexes. It only has two distinct positions: all the way open and completely shut. The jaw is held shut by the crooked bottom fang / upper jaw slot, so it flops open quite easily. The mouths on the other T. rexes are much more posable. 8) Baby T. rexes probably had a lighter build and a layer of fluffy down. Other than that, these toys are great, both for collectors and for somewhat careful children whose dinosaur battles don't get too rough.

This is yet another stunning addition to the Papo dinosaur collection. Sculpt: 5/5. The sculpting that Papo does on all of their figures is absolutely stunning. These are like mini sideshow pieces. All the scales, folds of the skin all are sculpted very well. Absolutely fantastic. Paint:5/5 the paint is just as good as the sculpt. A beautiful paint scheme on this Papo figurine. Particularly similar to the Lost World Jurassic Park trex. The paint blends in nicely In all areas of the figure, and looks natural. Articulation:5/5.Just like shleich, mojo, collectA, and safari LTD, the dinosaurs aren't very articulated. HOWEVER, articulation isn't needed in this figure. In fact if there was artication in the knees, head, or arms, then it would ruin the sculpt that makes this figure pop and come to life. The figure does have one point of articulation, and that is the jaw. You can open and close the jaw, to make this trex roar, or fight with another Papo figure like the spinosaurus. Price( is it worth it?) : 5/5- Absolutely! This figurine is fantastic. Well sculpted,painted, and has a very good smooth articulation for the jaws. That's all this figure needs. For $24.99, this is an affordable and very stunning figure for collectors and kids! OVERALL SCORE: 20/20 100% (A+) A fantastic addition to the Papo line of dinosaurs. A fantastic piece for collectors, as well as kids!

Very clear mold and paint job, wonderful toy

When I got this I didn't even want to give it to my daughter to play with! It is such a beautifully made and intricately detail piece. I thought the schleich t-rex was pretty nice until I got this one. This guy blows that one out of the water on all aspects, his paint job, textures, pose are all twice as lifelike. I am a sculptor for a living and the artist who sculpted this model deserves an award. I may just buy another one for myself to display in my house. It really is that nice of a figure! It's plenty durable and it will last during normal play. Solid and heavy, this piece of artwork is worth the $$$ whether you want it as a toy or a statue for display!

As with other Papo dinosaurs, the detailing is far superior to most other toy dinos and even rivals or surpasses some professional resin kits. I don't mind the somewhat oversized feet since there is no base for the model to stand on, and I don't mind the somewhat overlong arms---they sort of go along with the big feet. I do wish the arms didn't jut out as much from the body and wish that they weren't so far apart---but that's not a big deal. What does bother me is the lower front tooth that sticks out at a ridiculous angle. I can only accept the model with the mouth fully closed. Then that tooth fits into a groove and is nearly undetectable when viewing the model in profile. Viewing it head on, the tooth still interrupts the line of premaxillary (upper front) teeth which, otherwise, are appropriately sized and spaced. As another reviewer noted, that tooth makes it look more like the critter from Peter Jackson's remake of King Kong. If the other teeth were more recurved, they would be better than a lot of resin kits of similar size. Overall, it's still the best toy T. rex I've seen. Size-wise, it's appropriately larger than the imaginative Papo Allosaurus.

This Tyrannosaurus Rex figure is really just impressive, completely and utterly impressive for what it is. like so many others, I bought this for my 3 year old - but it's so detailed (down to the crooked teeth with plaque build up) that you can't help but stare at it. The mouth does articulate, which is neat, but it's also just so well painted that it's easy to forget that this was nothing more than a $15 plastic figurine. You might think this was a one-off piece of art if it wasn't for the "made in china" stamp on the inside of one leg. My son thinks it's a little too scary and realistic, and that's fine by me: I rather enjoy leaving this guy on my desk so *I* can play with it. This is the kind of figurine that makes you want to buy every other piece in the Papo collection - it's THAT good.

I must say this is by far the best T-rex I have ever seen. My son is crazy for dinosaurs and this is by far his favorite. He got this for his birthday and will not put it down, never leaves his side not even at bedtime lol. It has been going threw a lot of rough play from the sand box to the bath tub, even dropped and thrown yet it still looks new. It is very well made and durable since it is surviving a 3 year old. All his friends are getting this guy for Christmas but not sure who will be more excited, the kids or the dads :P. So impressed that my son will be collecting them all!!

The sculpting, pose, detail, and coloring are absolutely flawless. This Tyrannosaurus Rex beats the overpriced ones I've seen in some museum gift shops and it also has the advantage of being bigger and more reasonably priced. This looks exactly like the streamlined ones depicted in dinosaur books and in the Jurassic Park movies. For me, this is an awesome character and a great reference for any tyrannosaur (or other similar theropod) I want to draw or paint. This is a great gift for any dinosaur or creature lover. Papo has done a wonderful job creating this masterpiece.

Dinosauro veramente ben fatto, molto realistico e di ottima fattura. Plastica davvero molto robusta, nche se non ha resistito a pesantissime incursioni di ragazzini indemoniati. Però riparato in men che non si dica col super Attack e senza alcuno strascico, non si vede nulla di nulla. Bellissimo e ottimo prezzk

J'ai été agréablement surprise par la qualité de la réplique du T.Rex : très réaliste et finitions parfaites (on peut lui compter les dents !!!) et les teintes utilisées sont dignes d'un artiste peintre.... La taille du dinosaure permet de le tenir facilement et son poids (environ 400g) le rend très stable. Je l'ai commandé pour mon petit-fils de 3 ans qui est fan des dinosaures mais je le vois très bien également comme objet décoratif dans une composition naturelle au milieu de plantes exotiques !!!

3000円代で、このできばえは素晴らしいです。 口も開閉します。ただ、バランスが微妙で少しの振動で倒れ易いようです。 ですが、肌の質感や色合いはとても良くできておりリアルで満足です。子どものオモチャでは勿体無く、大人の鑑賞に充分耐えうるものとなっています。

Impresionante. Excelente tamaño, ni muy chico ni muy grande, adecuado para niños mayores a 4 años. Super detallado, impresionante el detalle de los dientes y la boca. La pintura excelente, la proporción de las extremidades, cabeza y cola lo hacen ver como si fuera real. La postura caminando la hace ver como con poco equilibrio, pero no, las piernas son lo suficientemente fuertes para mantener la figura que de por sí un poco pesada y la cola le da el balance perfecto. Muy sorprendido por la calidad de esta figura.

Muy bien pintado. Compré la versión en color verde. Efectivamente, como dicen, es similar al Rex de El Mundo Perdido (Jurassic Park 2) y no tiene nada que ver con el dinosaurio de King Kong. Tiene una gran cantidad de detalles. Ahora ya tengo al Rex marrón de pie y al Rex verde corriendo.
