I would urge anyone who wants to purchase these superb
models to *buy them from the guys who sculpted them.* 
Greg Wenzel and Dan LoRusso of the Dinosaur Studio were
sure to represent the animals in accord with current
theories of dinosaur morphology, not necessarily a
popular stance with toy companies!  Check out their
site, which offers pictures of the models as well as
ordering instructions:

Go into the catalog.  The Battat pieces are at the
bottom.

I've seen many large expensive resin models of T. rex,
but Greg's little 1/40th scale model for Battat is my
favorite, hands down!
