Going to switch lipless for lipped theropods in the near future. Here's a list of accurate theropod figures with lips. Do correct me if I do make any mistakes:

(Figures from the same year and company will be grouped together)
Papo feathered velociraptor
Safari ltd 2017 Velociraptor
All botm tyrannosaurs and dromaeosaurs
Pnso giganotosaurus and yangchuanosaurus
Safari 2019 Allosaurus and carnotaurus
CollectA carnotaurus (hard to tell)
Safari ltd 2020 Qianzhusaurus, Dilophosaurus,deinonychus and concavenator
CollectA allosaurus and saltriovenator
Gr toys carcharodontosaurus
CollectA Megalosaurus, neovenator and Dilophosaurus(hard to tell)
Safari ltd daspletosaurus
Safari ltd 2022 albertosaurus

Spinosaurids are kinda exempted due to the fact they're not really portrayed with lips as far as I know

EoFauna Giga has lips on the upper jaw
Shrek 4 is an underrated masterpiece

Rebor's T.Rex "Kiss" can of course be added to this list.
But today, I'm just being father

Concavenator

avatar_JimoAi @JimoAi from that list, the Safari Velociraptor, CollectA Carnotaurus, and CollectA Dilophosaurus doesn't have lips.

The teeth are still exposed to some degree when the mouth is closed, so I wouldn't say it counts.

That's totally respectable, but "lips" aren't the only aspect that makes a figure accurate. While it's likely they are the right option, it would be more important if the figure gets the basic anatomy right. The Safari Velociraptor is noticeably more accurate than the Papo version despite lacking lips, for example.

avatar_Concavenator @Concavenator I see. I'm quite anal on certain details on my figures but since there's no concrete answer yet, my figures I currently display are currently all lipless based on PNSO's decision to omit lips.

I don't have the Velociraptor, but Safari's 2020 Deinonychus does have lips and should definitely be added to your list avatar_JimoAi @JimoAi.

Seems large unless it can be subbed as being utahraptor. Also, it can stay with my lipless theropods as I think dromaeosaurs def have lips whilst tyrannosaurs and carcharodontosaurids don't

The Deinonychus is around the same size as the Velociraptor I think.

Larger and I used to own the velociraptor until I sold it

Why? I mean its better than being full lipless but it makes no sense for two groups to go lipless, when they have no reason to

Using them as examples. When the other theropods are lipless, I think dromaeosaurs and troodontids would still have lips
