Two mighty giants clash in battle. These terrible foes matched in strength and power, one is driven by instinct the other by desperation. In this fight for survival, no quarter is given, life or death being the only outcome. The fiercest creature of Skull Island, the V-Rex is the only dinosaur brave enough to challenge the mighty Kong. An awesome predator stalking the tangled jungle in search of a meal, V-Rexes are the terrifying descendants of tyrannosaurs that roamed the earth many millions of years ago. On Skull Island, these beasts have evolved to new levels of terror.

The 'Eighth Wonder' of the World, King Kong - a massive 25 feet in height - inspires fear in all who behold him. Due to reoccurring battles to ensure his supremacy Kong's lower jaw is broken, permanently exposing his lower right incisor.

Sculptor Eden says every effort was made to ensure realism was kept in tact. "The scales on the V-Rex were all hand sculpted", he explains. "And [it] was well worth it for the end result." Colleague and Weta Sculptor David Meng agrees. When asked if he could own one collectible from the Kong and Narnia ranges, he immediately selected this piece. "I'd own Kong Fighting V-Rex", he says. "It's pretty much the star piece."
