T-Rex paint master from Universal Studios Back to the Future theme park attraction. (ca. 1990s) This Tyrannosaurus Rex head was created as a paint master and reference in the creation of the Hollywood, Universal Studios theme park ride based on the smash Back to the Future franchise.

The entire piece is expertly painted and finished with individual urethane teeth and custom made, reptilian glass eyes. Comes with custom-built platform to pose a replica DeLorean time machine (included) near the T-Rex's gaping mouth. In vintage very good condition. Special shipping arrangements will apply.
