Nothing quite says Christmas like a Tyrannosaurus Rex skeleton! The 51 piece T-Rex Skeleton is just the thing to capture the excitement of any junior paleontologist. For a lot of parents, who want something that their kid won’t assemble in under two minutes, this model kit has 51 pieces. One of the things I liked the most was that there was no need to glue the pieces together. You can put it together and take it apart, and then put it together again. The large colour piece map, shows you where everything goes and includes a description of the Tyrannosaurus Rex.

I like look of the mottled, fossil-look plastic. The metal pole frame that you slide the spinal column pieces onto makes assembly easy. The box itself is stunning, but the assembled dinosaur is huge! The claims of this T-Rex Skeleton being over 91cm (36?) long are not exaggerated. It’s really big. Designed for ages 8 and up, if you have a child with an interest (0r obsession) with dinosaurs then this is the perfect gift.
