LEGO brings attention to one of its most elaborate designs yet in the form of the Dinosaur Fossils: Tyrannosaurus rex set. Fans can discover their own fossils as the set transforms the intricate puzzle into a skeletal look that is almost as good as the real deal. When the puzzle comprised of 3,145 pieces is complete, it stretches over three feet in length.
Notably, it is intended for adult builders as the scale is 1:12 of the skeleton and aims to truly capture the grand aesthetic of the dinosaur. The model is comprised of a meticulous process that pays close attention to paleontological reconstruction with articulated joints. It also has a movable jaw, skull, and posable arms and tail.
