An article from Prehistoric Times states that T-Rex may have been 70% larger than it actually is thought to be. It is mind-blowing to think that such an already massive animal may have reached such size  proportions. However, given the fact that this study is based on a lot of calculations/ estimations and the fact that only a handful of fossils has been found so far (it is even stated that there may have been 2.5 billion T-Rexes on Earth!) and due to their fragmentary conditions, the validity of this study may be questioned. However, is is still stated that it may have been possible for T-Rex to grow to such size proportions! So, who is the largest theropod dinosaur after all? Either way, these animals will never cease to amaze and surprise us with new discoveries.

This would certainly make Rebor's Kiss and Tusk plausible display companions for the Wilsons.

Sighs.
Well, you know what model I am gonna have to get now. Shelf space or not, here I come

I mean it is certainly possible. People for vary wildly in height. Here's an example, I my self am quite a bit larger than the average 5'8 ish guy, I'm 6'5. And with there being a fraction of the actual population of dinosaurs preserved in fossils, the maximum size is highly unlikely to have been found or will ever be found.
Maybe the nanmu Buck Rex can scale with the rest of my 1:35 collection...
