A supposition model of Tyrannosauroidea discovered in Tamba city, Japan. In Tamba city , Tyrannosauroidea maxillary anterior tooth was discovered. I sculpted this model with reference to Xiongguanlong and Appalachiosaurus. I and the supervising paleontologist couldn't decide the number of fore limb's digit, 2 or 3.So, I made the 3rd digits as detachable. This model is exhibited at Tamba dinosaur fossil Lab.
