Our son generally breaks things with moving parts on day one; This has held up beautifully to his rough-handling and frequent destructive terrible-twos episodes.

The skeleton was first discovered in 1991, when paleontologists including T. rex expert and UAlberta professor Phil Currie were called in on the project. But the hard sandstone that encased the bones took more than a decade to remove—only now have scientists been able to study Scotty fully-assembled and realize how unique a dinosaur it is. By Tyrannosaurus standards, it had an unusually long life. And it was a violent one," Persons said. "Riddled across the skeleton are pathologies—spots where scarred bone records large injuries."

If your kids are in the mood for a more traditional dinosaur game, they can simply snap off Mega T-Rex's armor. Even without his high-tech accessories, the dinosaur can provide plenty of imaginative thrills. T-Rex features everything you'd expect from a dinosaur toy, from his scaly hide to his fearsome teeth and snapping jaws. Scotty is the oldest T. rex known," Persons explains. "By which I mean, it would have had the most candles on its last birthday cake. You can get an idea of how old a dinosaur is by cutting into its bones and studying its growth patterns. Scotty is all old growth." A great resource that you could pair with this one is our Triceratops With Ears Colouring Sheet! It’s very similar to this one and would help children make comparisons between these two types of dinosaurs.

It is not just Scotty's size and weight that set it apart. The Canadian mega rex also lays claim to seniority.

This is the rex of rexes," said Scott Persons, lead author of the study and postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Biological Sciences. "There is considerable size variability among Tyrannosaurus. Some individuals were lankier than others and some were more robust. Scotty exemplifies the robust. Take careful measurements of its legs, hips, and even shoulder, and Scotty comes out a bit heftier than other T. rex specimens." Called the King of the Dinosaurs, the T-Rex stomped through North America over 65 million years ago and grew up to 20 feet tall. Whether your fierce T-Rex is chasing down smaller dinosaurs, doing combat with another predator, or crashing through the forest to chase human adventurers from another era, he’s sure to bring Jurassic games to life.

Turn the Power Pad on the dinosaur’s head to see her eyes light-up green and dilated, or red and un-dilated with a glowing-red mouth!Among Scotty's injures are broken ribs, an infected jaw, and what may be a bite from another T. rex on its tail—battle scars from a long life.

This would be a fun way to experiment with artistic techniques and textures.
