  • You’d think that with the whole slew of 1:35 Tyrannosauruses that have come our way, there is nothing new under the sun. You’d be wrong.
    Eofauna, well-known for their respect of scientific rigour and with a strong team of scientists, have given us many very good sculpts, most notably in their prehistoric proboscideans. Dinosaurs however, have been more hit and miss. This T-rex is definitely a HIT.
    Combining a striking colour palette, pattern, a near perfect mouth seal, a more ‘toothless’ appearance as suggested by Cullen et al 2023, and some other lovely points, this one is not just one of my favourite Tyrannosauruses, it’s one of my favourite dinosaur models, period!

    There has been different opinions about this figure, like split in two. But I LOVE this figure! It literally has no shrink wrappinh at all! And it looks so natural. But the not sharp teeth part is probably the only nitpick I have. I cant wait to be able to buy this!

      T.Rex teeth aren't particularly pointy at the tip- this is so that the teeth are able to resist extreme forces delivered from the jaw muscles. However, T.Rex teeth are serrated.

      "Different opinions" is certainly right! I don't recall any model having been so controversial, even the other T Rexes! I actually did not expect to like it so much, but it has really grown on me!

    There are some points on this figure I do like such as the colouring, for me the best trex models are currenly PNSO Cameron and Rebor Kiss.

    • @DinosDragons
      @DinosDragons  5 месяцев назад

      As polarizing as this figure is, I don't think there are many people who would deny that PNSO Cameron is one of the best, and Rebor Kiss one of the baddest!

    At first I could understand the polarised opinions on this figure because I was 50/50 on it myself, but now that I’ve had time to think over it I cannot understand how anyone could not absolutely LOVE this figure! The proportions are perfect, the lips are just right, the pose is perfectly naturalistic, and the colouration has really grown on me. I can definitely imagine such camouflage being especially perfect for nocturnal hunting as is depicted in Prehistoric Planet.
    Will have to get my hands on one as soon as it becomes available down here in the antipodes!
    Also I wouldn’t mind seeing reviews on figures past their release date, as long as you have the interest and time with all the new releases coming out. I finally got the Eofauna Paleoloxodon and Deinotherium in the mail today and am thoroughly impressed! I think the Eofauna Diplodocus and PNSO Saurophaganax will be next on my list.

      I guess that's the amazing thing... people can look at the same thing, put it through their personal filter, and end up with very different feelings and emotions about it!
      I don't recall a single other model, even T Rex, that is as polarizing as this one! And honestly, I did not like it at first when I saw the release images, but it quickly grew on me, and I find it surprising more leeway isn't given this model. This isn't of the same class and price tier as a PNSO.
      EoFauna have really given us the probosicdeans no one else has! I wonder which is their next. I've always wished they might tackle Stegotetrabelodon!

    Kinda late but finally watched this, and it's confirmed my musings about Eofauna's Sue - it's a terrific model. The jaw articulation and lip seal/engineering is what's especially impressive to me.
    Plus it looks really good next to Wilson! For some reason Cameron is a lot bulkier than this model, despite being also based off Sue, so the size disparity may be a bit too much for spme.
    Now let's see who else comes up with a flagship lipped T.rex next...

    • @DinosDragons
      @DinosDragons  2 месяца назад

      Haha, I think it could be HLG! Their T rex last time was like a bad dream, and that and the Therizinosaurus doesn't belong to HLG canon as far as I'm concerned, the way the sequels don't exist for me, and only the George Lucas hexalogy is real in my mind 🤣

    what a handsome model! ever since it got teased around a year and a half ago i been eagerly waiting for this sculpt to get on the market. When i first saw the promotional images for this figure i immediately fell in love, And knew i would have to add this to my theropod shelf! great sculpt, perfect scale, fine and plausible colors, well researched, what's not to like? i have seen a lot of mixed feelings on this model, from the colors to the head to even the proportions, and a majority of the people complain about the head sculpt and the addition of 'cheeks' on this model, and i have to say i am not really bothered but that reconstruction, plenty of avian theropods like parrots, parakeets or certain others have these sort of cheeks for certain ecological preposes and it's not too impossible some theropods may have had it as well! while sure it is speculative, to complain about colors either being dull or flashy or plausible reconstructions isn't really valid when you say "it just doesn't look right", it is fair to have your own opinion about it but when it comes to paleontology you have to be very professional on you takes if you want your argument to make sense. I really like the colors of this model not to mention! it could very easily suit the environments of lush floodplains and forested habitats as T.rex as we all know did live in that habitat, It's also very satisfying to see the lips fully close! very nice. great review as always!

    • @DinosDragons
      @DinosDragons  4 месяца назад

      Thank you for your detailed comments and thoughts, I appreciate them! Indeed, this has been one of the most polarizing model; even more so that the Cameron and the Wilson. That jaw articulation is a big deal, but I credit Rebor for trying something a little different.
      Colouration-wise I actually talk a bit about in my Part 2 HLG Mamenchisaurus review (ignore what I was saying about imbricate vs tessellated scales!) and Dr Mark Witton has written at length about that on his blog.
      As for head proportions, again people have in their minds a certain standards, and since I know the least about theropods than almost any other clade I shan't comment, except to say that we now have a whole bunch of T Rex skulls and you can appreciate there is quite a bit of difference in proportions. I would trust that the people behind EoFauna have at least as much knowledge as the loudest critics, and so may be equally valid in their interpretation.
      But as I've said elsewhere, as collectors with our own opinions, get what you like, pass on those you don't like. That's the best policy live-and-let-live policy I think! 😁

    • @DinosDragons

    Eofauna is one of my favorite companies, mainly because of their proboscideans. Even though I don't have any figures from this company, I still intend to acquire those proboscideans someday. And now look at this beauty. I'm so in love with this figure. I've seen most of our collectors bash and look down on this wonderful figure without even seeing a valuable review video like this. But now I'm sure they will think twice before speaking.
    As I heard, Eofauna is still a small company, but they are working so hard to make it big. So I thoroughly believe that they deserve so much love and respect for their hard work.
    And about the color, I'm sure you know by now that I love my dinos black and dark. So this is a pleasant surprise. That curious look is so natural. And that tells us that even the mightiest and most ferocious T-rexes can be curious and alarmed about the things they find questionable.
    This T-rex is the goodest boy. Oops, sorry, goodest girl. A wonderful piece for all the collectors. And your review reminds them that if a collector misses this, they are going to regret it. Thank you so much for clearing the water for us collectors, my dear sir. Only you can clear and clarify all the misconceptions these collectors have. Eagerly waiting for the next review. 🖤

    Do you think the jaw articulation engineering detracts from how thick the mandibular muscles should be? You mentioned how thin the lower jaw looked when viewed from below due to the slotting-in mechanism.

    • @DinosDragons
      @DinosDragons  2 месяца назад

      Yes it is a compromise that was made, which is always a consideration with any kind of articulation. I still applaud for EoFauna for trying something different. When I saw release images, I thought it might look like a ventriloquist dummy, but in hand, and after having it for some time, I hardly even register it. But yes, if you are really into anatomy, then the lack of that bulge may bother you.

    i really gotta say this review did change my view of this model, i don't dislike it as much and it's really nice representation of a lipped trex, personally though i will stay with my PNSO cameron as i still prefer the more reptilian and classic look in the jaw reconstruction (the exposed jaw muscles) even if it's not really inaccurate nor we have evidence for it and the more bland and fitting for an animal of that size coloration
    definitely though this is a very nice representation of a tyrannosaurus

    • @DinosDragons
      @DinosDragons  4 месяца назад +1

      One thing I've learnt as I did a lot more reading on Tyrannosaurus is that with all the skulls we have, there is quite a bit of variation in skull proportions, and so I would not definitely dismiss any model based on that, especially as theropods aren't my strongest suit, and given the pedigree of the team behind EoFauna.
      That aside, this has certainly been the most polarizing of all the models I've reviewed so far! It's amazing how many people are firmly on either side of the fence on this one! 😃

    It is by far the best T. Rex figurine I had ever bought so far in terms of scientific accuracy, with only the Favorite Collection T. Rex I have coming in as close as possible to rivaling it.
    I also have the original colored Safari Ltd feathered T. Rex and Papo’s brown running T. Rex, but the prior has too many feathers and exposed teeth while the latter obviously took too much references from Jurassic Park.

    @paleoscinkus542 5 месяцев назад +2

    Personally, I’m not a fan of the avian rictus they depicted for the mouth. Otherwise the muscle and skeletal anatomy is quite good. Something I want to note with using varanid lizards (and by extension squamates) as reference is that they don’t have rooted teeth and have a lot of cranial kinesis similar to snakes, which requires extensive gingiva to act as a buffer. Theropod skulls are comparatively rigid and have socket set teeth, as well as all of archosauria. I don’t think they would have had as extensive of lip tissues and some experts have suggested.

    • @JL-ux9dk
      @JL-ux9dk 5 месяцев назад +1

      I agree with this assessment, varanids such as the Komodo have a mouth designed to gobble up whole prey, (there are videos of monitor lizards swallowing a small goat whole without chewing it) as do constrictor snakes,... Tyrannosaurs, however, had to dismember their prey and crush the bones, it does not seem very logical that they had the same chewing system

I am glad that you enjoy yours, and truly, having something to stir the imagination is very valuable in Life! 😊

    I can state with no doubt that the best Tyrannosaurus figure I have ever seen. I had the same kind of impression after seeing their Atlasaurus and now with their T. imperator. For this reason there goes the proverb, "Waiting is bitter, but its fruit is sweet". Love you Eofauna💕💕💕

They have stated they have found additional evidences along with those they had pointed out before in this sort of classification but they are now still delved deep in their study which will take at least five years to publish.

      I don't know. I didn't think to check, since I really don't like those rod bases. I find them really fiddly and unreliable, but of course better than nothing. I'm not sure what material this is made of though... maybe it's less prone to warping than the PNSOs.
