I am really excited to be starting this big brute, here is a pic of the rex when assembled, includes with glass eyes, the detail is just outstanding.
I always wanted a detailed rex.

That is nice!

Who made this one buzz and how long is it from nose to tail?

Wolfie, its sculpted by Keith Strasser, you can buy it right from him, he has a website, they are not cheap,this rex is 29 inches long.I think he does some of the best dinosaurs.

Wolf, I forgot to mention, the dinos have glass eyes, that add a nice touch, I believe he has a selection of different bases , that you can choose from, he is sending me a diffrent terrain base.Lot of great dinos out there by different sculpters.

Not a problem Buzz

There's a ton of Dino resin kits out there but not that many Mammals kits though thats the only down side,But that sailback that your talking about on Strassers sight also caught my eye to and not a bad price either for it.

Luckily Max Salas has been busy making new Prehistoric mammals (also sold exclusively through link and pin hobbies).

edophasaurus & dimetrodon were my favs...taking into consideration the affordability factor too...don't see these kinda prices unless i'm shopping godzilla stuff...
