T-Rex (Jurassic Park)
In 1993 this was one of the most ambitious and laborious projects for Stan Winston’s effects workshop: building a full scale animatronic beast to be used in Steven Spielberg’s adaptation of the Michael Crichton terror. Not a hero or a villain, but simply a hungry beast out to survive with stylish teeth, the Tyrannosaurus rex reigned supreme as the ultimate creature in the eyes of children throughout the 1990s, even so far as to have the very same Rex with her own allotted screen time in the sequel that is Colin Trevorrow’s Jurassic World. – Evan Griffin
