Are there any T. Rex figures similar to Sideshow's Tyrant King?

[Raffa]

I really love the sculpt and level of accuracy put into Sideshow's Tyrant King statue (reviewed here http://dinotoyblog.com/2015/05/07/tyrannosaurus-tyrant-king-sideshow-dinosauria/) but I'm just wondering if there's any modern plastic figures that come close to the level of style/accuracy to it (preferably without feathers like the statue itself *). Does anyone know if there's any plastic figures of Tyrannosaurus that come close to it?

*NOTE: I've nothing against feathered Rexes. If anything, I love CollectA and Wild Safari's recent figures; the latter being one of my most favorite Tyrannosaurus figures. I'm just wondering if there's non-feathered options that are even close to being accurate to those ones.

In my opinion a PVC figure can't show the same level of details as a resin/polystone statue.
So if you're searching for quality, you have to explore into resin models and not into plastic figures.
More or less I have all the decent pvc Rexes in my collection and you could judge by yourself:

There is also a new JP/JW style PVC T Rex from China:

I think RobinGoodfellow is correct that it's going to be hard to match Sideshow production value in PVC, but you might consider the PNSO "Wilson" Tyrannosaurus:

The Battat Tyrannosaurus is probably just as accurate or maybe even more so but it sounds like you're after a heavy level of detail in the sculpting and paint.

Although they have no point of comparison, are also interesting in PVC version the two Tyrannosaurus rex Rebor whose official name is as follows, Rebor: 1/35 Tyrannosaurus rex "Killer Queen will be marketed from next January / February this year.

I know positively that they will not be of the same quality as Sideshow but sincerely I am waiting for them and for me they are very cool and very nice figures.

@Reveux Finally Welcome to the forum!

Personally I would have chosen the Shane Foulkes 1:15 Tyrannosaurus.
It's not PVC but It's also the figure more close to Sideshow quality and accuracy.

Sadly resin/polystone statues are just way outside my budget unless I save up for a certain special one (I'm eyeing a couple of Allosaurus statues). Still, your collection is amazing! I actually just remembered that I own the Kaiyodo Sofubi Toybox Tyrannosaurus in "Classic" colors. So I guess it's worth mentioning that I'm looking for something similar to that.

There is also a new JP/JW style PVC T Rex from China:

Though not quite what I'm looking for, that still looks nice and I'll definitely keep an eye out for it. That said, there's one figure that caught my eye so far from your collection which I'll mention in the following:

Wilson looks damn near perfect for what I'm looking for! It's the one that caught my attention in RobinGoodfellow's Rex collection. On a related note, I actually did a little digging on my own after posting the thread, and yeah the Battat Tyrannosaurus looks like a good option as well based on the sculpt work I'm looking for.

While this isn't what I'm looking for, that looks to be the best PVC JP Rexes by far so thank you for posting this. I might actually pick those up to represent the JP1 Rex and the JP2 Lost World "Buck", and they can both join my JP3 pair of the Papo Green Rex and Spinosaurus (I never got the brown variants from Papo).

Also thanks for the welcome! I've lurked the site and forums for years now but it's only recently that I decided to join. ^_^

Gah! That looks amazing but I really can't afford statues mainly due to budget and shelf spacing. T_T

Thanks for the suggestions everyone! It really helped, especially your collection pics, RobinGoodfellow. In this regard, I might go for the PNSO Wilson and Battat figures. ^_^

..so we've got 2 winners:

The most recent Sega Dino King figure is kinda neat and has lots of detail:



Wilson (PNSO) is an excellent figure as well.  There's also another version of it coming later, if I remember correctly.
