Tyrannosaurus rex is one of the most famous, fearsome and majestic creatures that ever lived on Earth. In a story featuring giant monsters, T. rex is an obvious choice. However, some authors just find that T. rex itself is a little too cliché and want something more original, or that using a real dinosaur species just wouldn't fit the setting. So instead of using the tyrant lizard king itself, they show an original creature that obviously resembles it, resulting in something of an Expy of T. rex — a T-Rexpy. The T-Rexpy is usually a generic dinosaur or dinosaur-like monster (occasionally a descendant of T. rex that somehow survived into the modern age) but it can also be a fantasy creature like a dragon, an alien or a mutant. It is typically bipedal, with a bulky body, long tail, relatively short arms, and a massive head with a broad mouth full of sharp teeth. However, it may have extra features that distinguish it from T. rex while potentially making it even more fearsome, such as horns, spikes, armor-like scales or feathers (which T. rex may or may not have had). As T. rex's puny arms are one feature that diminish its badass image, sometimes the T-Rexpy will have longer arms with massive claws instead; however, some portrayals double down on this visual element and may remove the arms altogether to make the creature a fully Armless Biped. In the most bizarre examples, it may even have wings. It will typically be at least as large as a real T. rex was, but there's no upper limit — some T-Rexpies are Kaiju-sized. Most T-Rexpies are outwardly reptilian, but some have feathers, whether sparse or body-wide, and may even be specifically giant predatory birds. More unusual examples of this trope, such as explicitly mammalian, fishlike, insectoid, or robotic T-Rexpies, also exist. The T-Rexpy will often end up in a Behemoth Battle, usually with another dinosaur-like monster or a giant ape. Although most of the time it relies on brute strength in combat, it will sometimes be given a Breath Weapon, since Dinosaurs Are Dragons. It will often have the words "rex" or "tyrant" somewhere in its name, or a synonym or near-synonym such as "imperator", "regem" or the like. When real dinosaurs, such as Allosaurus, Carnotaurus or Giganotosaurus, get depicted with T. rex-like features, that is not this trope, but rather Artistic License – Paleontology. Also, a T-Rexpy cannot be explicitly a Tyrannosaurus rex (though it can be an "evolved" descendant of it); again, unrealistic portrayals of the actual creature go under Artistic License – Paleontology. Sub-Trope of Prehistoric Animal Analogue, when other extinct animals are used for fictional designs. For depictions of tyrannosaurs and T-Rexpies being portrayed as intimidating, see Terrifying Tyrannosaur. Sometimes these creatures will be presented as the Fantastic Fauna Counterpart of T. rex. See also Whateversaurus, Raptor Attack, Prehistoric Monster and Notzilla. |

A Bug's Life features a bird as a secondary antagonist — it plays this role quite well, being significantly larger than all the insect characters, having a Giant Foot of Stomping and a call that, from the bugs' perspective, resembles a Mighty Roar. Likely pretty appropriate, as birds are themselves theropod dinosaurs. | |

Digimon: The Agumon line is based on bulky, three-fingered T. rex-like dinosaurs. Its most prominent members in this regard are Greymon, a tyrannosaur-like beast with an armored facial mask, and Tyrannomon, a more Prehistoric Monster-like take with giant claws and a row of Godzilla-like spikes down its back. | |

Monster Hunter: Many monsters are based on T. rex: In the second generation there's Tigrex, the flagship monster of Monster Hunter Freedom 2, who has a T. rex-like head and reputation, as well as dinosaur-like blue stripes and a bronze-yellow hue in its skin, but is actually a Flying Wyvern. Later games add increasingly lethal variations, each being far stronger and more feral: Monster Hunter Portable 3rd introduces a subspeces (Brute Tigrex) which has a dark-green skin with black stripes, Monster Hunter 4 introduces a rare species (Molten Tigrex) that is colored dark red and is much bigger, and Monster Hunter Generations adds a Deviant (Grimclaw Tigrex) whose colors are more intense versions of the original and is considerably more powerful. The third generation introduced Brute Wyverns, a class of monsters characterized by bipedal stances, short forelegs, great physical bulk and strength, and heavy heads with strong jaws. The first you encounter is the Barroth, an insectivore that lives at the edges of deserts and covers itself in mud to protect itself from the sun while searching for anthills. Then there's Deviljho, who debuts in Monster Hunter 3 (Tri), and its variant Savage Deviljho, who debuts in the expansion Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate. Both monsters are Brute Wyverns with small arms and large heads, and extremely aggressive temperaments. They're also prone to repeatedly hunt preys to eat. In the fourth generation there's Glavenus, one of the flagship monsters of Monster Hunter Generations. It has T. rex-like traits while also drawing some others from Carnotaurus. It also has a massive blade on the end of it's tail, a firey spit, and the ability to combine the two by superheating the blade in its mouth. Monster Hunter: World Iceborne also provides a variant living in the Rotten Vale that secretes an acid from the tail that it uses to hone the blade. Monster Hunter: World: Anjanath resembles a cross between a T. rex and a vulture, with fire abilities. Iceborne introduces an electricity-based subspecies named Fuljur Anjanath. |

Serina: On a number of occasions, some of the descendants of the canaries become adapted for life as large, flightless predators of megafauna. In the earlier periods of Serina's history, where the original avian form is still relatively unmodified, this results in forms reminiscent of the tyrannosaurs: The tyrant serins are enormous flightless apex predators with powerful bone-crushing beaks, wings reduced to vestigial appendages, and tail-like extensions of their pygostyles to balance their immense heads. They are mostly adapted for preying on the similarly flightless, elephant-sized serestriders, which they kill with guillotine-like bites to the neck. Coronas arise around forty million years later, and belong to a group that evolved a number of mammal-like traits such as fur-like feathers, liplike fleshy coverings over their beaks, and teeth. They're also huge, flightless bipeds — one ton in weight and ten feet tall — with tail-like hindquarters like the tyrant serins. Unlike the serins, their arms are large and muscular, and end in a single strong, hooked claw each. Sea rexes are an unusual case, as they're four-flippered, orca-like descendants of scaled seagoing birds adapted to prey on marine megafauna. The resulting creature resembles a heavily-built, shell-less sea turtle, with an avian head whose beak is filled with serrated keratinous teeth and built to crush the skulls and spines of other large marine animals. Sea rexes can grow to be sixty tons in weight and reach two centuries of life, and while their juveniles are vulnerable the adults are functionally impossible for other creatures to harm. Ultimately, however, they died out as a result of collapsing marine food chains killing off the large marine birds they eat, combined with a desperate effort by the sapient daydreamers to kill off their young in an effort to stave off their own extinction. Subjugators are a species of sawjaw — three-limbed terrestrial fish descendants who developed a single back leg from their tails, which secondarily became bipeds and turned their hind leg back into a tail — specialized for preying on megafauna. They're powerful, one-ton animals, adapted to run down prey and tear it to pieces. They'll prey on any large animal, but their favorite prey are huge quadruped birds convergently evolved to strongly resemble sauropods. |

Smash Up has the King Rex of the Dinosaur faction, which highly resembles a 100 ft tall Tyrannosaurus and has a power of '7', the strongest base power in the game that comes without a drawbacknote Only the Elder Thing is more powerful, but you have to destroy two of your own cards to play it, but is the only unit in the game with no Effects or Talents. | |

Dawn of War: The Tau's relic unit is the Greater Knarloc, a subspecies of Kroot that looks like the offspring of a terror bird and a T. rex with the temper to match. It's useful as a tough melee unit, but it's very slow to move and slower to turn. | |

Zoids features a bunch of them, typically typecast as rivals to the protagonist driven Liger-type Zoids, or as the main Zoid of the Big Bad. Zoids: Chaotic Century features the Geno Saurer and its Mid-Season Upgrade, the Geno Breaker, piloted by Raven, the series' obligatory Brooding Rival character. Zoids: New Century features the Berserk Fury as one of two legendary Ultimate X Zoids, piloted by Child Prodigy Vega Obscura. Rather than being a recurring rival, it shows up near the end of the series as a Final Boss. Zoids Fuzors is set in a different continuity, featuring the Buster Fury and its Mid-Season Upgrade, the Gairyuki. Zoids Genesis features the Bio Tyranno, which is piloted by the Big Bad Emperor Jiin. Zoids: Wild: Emperor Gallagher (or Gigaboss, if you prefer) rides the Death Rex, a legendary Zoid said to have caused a mass extinction in the past. Zoids Wild Zero: Omega Rex, a mutated variation of Death Rex, appears as the primary antagonist of the show's second main story arc. Zoids Wild Senki: in a departure from the usual setup, the Xeno Rex appears as a Republican Zoid rather than an Imperial Zoid. The Zoids franchise has many, many other Tyrannosaur Zoids, such as its former mascot, the Gojulas, but these tend to be NotZillas rather than proper tyrannosaurs. An exception is Gojulas Giga, has NotZilla elements like dorsal spines, but has an otherwise more theropod-like body and is expressly based on Giganotosaurus. |

Hamster's Paradise: The original draft of the project had a species of large carnivorous hamster descendants resembling theropods evolve into a muscular nine-foot-tall predator called a tyrat which, as the name suggests, converged heavily on a Tyrannosaurus rex in niche and appearance. In the current canon, the apex predator of North Westerna in the Middle Temperocene is the pterowrex, a large, vaguely dinosaur-like biped that hunts mammoth-like herbivores called maustodons. Curiously, this is a case of Bizarre Sexual Dimorphism, as only the females are are T-Rexpy's: the male is a far smaller and flying species more akin to storks or azhdarchid pterosaurs. | |

Jurassic World: The Indominus rex is an in-universe example, a genetically modified hybrid dinosaur that is intended to be "super T. rex" of sorts, albeit with longer, grasping arms and camouflage abilities. It's also much more intelligent than any tyrannosaurid as a result of adding raptor genes, allowing it to both escape its enclosure and giving it a nasty sadistic streak. | |

Final Fantasy XII has the tyrant-type enemies, which look exactly like T. rex but are officially considered part of the dragon genus. You can encounter them in the first open area of the game (they're called the Wild Saurians, and they will one-shot you if you provoke them). In the Feywood, there is a tyrant enemy called Giruveganus, which has eerie white haze enveloping its body and Glowing Eyes of Doom. Despite its coloration, it is weak to light. | |

Moon-Boy and Devil Dinosaur and Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur: The eponymous Devil Dinosaur looks like a T. rex, but is larger, stronger, more intelligent (although not human-level intelligent), and colored bright red. Despite his appearance, he's never explicitly identified as a T. rex. He is sometimes said to come from an alternate universe called Dinosaur World (Earth-78411), where it can be assumed dinosaurs continued to evolve after their extinction in most worlds, and is also possibly a mutant. | |

King Kong (2005): The fictional theropod Vastatosaurus rex is designed to resemble an evolved Tyrannosaurid with notable similarities to Tyrannosaurus itself. There are some obvious differences: instead of a prominent overbite, the V. rex has overlapping teeth like a crocodile, as well as hardened body armor and three fingers on its hands. They're also much larger due to island gigantism, with almost twice the body mass of a Tyrannosaurus (17 tons vs 9). Their legs are a lot more muscular as well to carry around that massive bulk. All of these differences were very intentional, rather than the filmmakers just not caring, and particularly allude to the ambiguous identity of the theropod that Kong fought in the original 1933 film—the three-fingered hand in particular is a common mistake, when tyrannosaurids famously have only two. | |

Super Mario Bros.: First introduced in Super Mario World, the Rex enemy looks like a indigo or violet T. rex (depending on the game) with a single nasal horn and tiny dragon wings on its back. They act like Goombas but can take two hits with their bodies becoming compressed on the first jump. While the normal variant doesn't appear in Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, a Shroobified version of the Rex, known as a Shroob Rex, exists in Shroob Castle. They can Ground Pound, shoot boulders and breathe fire, and if not flattened at least once, are too tall to counterattack by jumping. All in all, they are tough enemies. | |

Xenoblade Chronicles 1 and Xenoblade Chronicles 2 have the Sauros enemies. In the first game, they look vaguely draconic, can be found at very high levels in Makna Forest, and have a Talent Art where they eat a party member and inflict Instant Death on them. In the second game, they now take a more dinosaurian appearance and are mostly found in Temperantia, but a particularly nasty one can be seen roaming Gormott in the very early game and will happily one-shot the party if it sees them. Another monster in XC2, the Tyrannotitan Kurodil, is the strongest regular Optional Boss in the game and looks somewhat dinosaurian, but it's more of a Not Zilla despite its naming. | |

The Valley of Gwangi: Although it's meant to be an allosaur of some kind, the titular Gwangi is so heavily based on T. rex that even Ray Harryhausen wasn't sure what species it was in the end, often going back and forth between Allosaurus and Tyrannosaurus. Eventually, in his autobiography Ray Harryhausen: An Animated Life, Harryhausen settled with the idea that it's a hybrid specimen of the two, classifying Gwangi as Tyrannosaurus al. | |

The T-Rex II is not the largest predator on the planet, but it's one of the most impressive looking and Egomaniac Hunters from around the Inner Sphere like to go there to try and bag one. Typically hunting methods involve piloting light Battlemechs. | |

Pokémon: The fossil Pokemon Tyrunt, as well as its leveled-up counterpart Tyrantrum, are essentially Tyrannosaurus with the Pokemon touch to their design, with heavier armor, a few feathers, highly aggressive personalities and the ability to tear a car to pieces with their jaws. Although it looks a bit more like Godzilla, the Pokemon Tyranitar also draws inspiration from T. rex, as implied by both its English and French names. Koraidon, the box legendary of Pokémon Scarlet, is a prehistoric lizard-like dragon that's a mishmash of various dinosaurs, with its overall body plan in Apex Build vaguely resembling T. rex. Baxcalibur is another Godzilla-like dragon, similar to Tyranitar, with some tyrannosaurid traits along with other theropods such as Spinosaurus and Concavenator (namely, the huge bladed sail on its back). In the end, it's still a Not Zilla more than anything due to its upright posture. |

It is a gigantic, hungry red T-Rex lookalike with skull helmet and tribal markings, tamed by the Chief of prehistoric dwarves.

Warhammer 40,000: Knarlocs and Great Knarlocs are offshoots of the Kroot, featherless avian aliens who can alter their bodies by absorbing traits from creatures they eat, which have trapped themselves in dead-end paths by overconsuming the meat of bestial predators and thus became stuck as huge, feral animals. They resemble green predatory dinosaurs with muscular legs, short forelimbs, stumpy tails and serrated, bone-crushing beaks, not unlike a tyrannosaur with the head of a flesh-eating parrot. Common Knarlocs are only about large enough for Kroot to ride, but Great Knarlocs reach the sizes of the larger theropods and are the alpha predators of the jungles of the Kroot homeworld. | |

In the second generation there's Tigrex, the flagship monster of Monster Hunter Freedom 2, who has a T. rex-like head and reputation, as well as dinosaur-like blue stripes and a bronze-yellow hue in its skin, but is actually a Flying Wyvern. Later games add increasingly lethal variations, each being far stronger and more feral: Monster Hunter Portable 3rd introduces a subspeces (Brute Tigrex) which has a dark-green skin with black stripes, Monster Hunter 4 introduces a rare species (Molten Tigrex) that is colored dark red and is much bigger, and Monster Hunter Generations adds a Deviant (Grimclaw Tigrex) whose colors are more intense versions of the original and is considerably more powerful. | |

Fossil Fighters, a dinosaur-based mons series, features over half a dozen versions of T. rex as usable Vivosaurs, and they're all substantially different from the real thing due to their revival process. The basic version, known as T-Rex Sue in Fossil Fighters: Frontier, has red-black striped skin and mohawk-like fur running down its body, and is Fire-element. Others include a Super Evolved form that stands upright like how T. rex was originally speculated to stand, Boneysaur and Zombiesaur versions, and the Air-element T-Rex Stan. Tellingly, when actual T. rex appear late in Frontier, the contrast of them being Non-Elemental with realistic brown skin is apparent. | |

The third generation introduced Brute Wyverns, a class of monsters characterized by bipedal stances, short forelegs, great physical bulk and strength, and heavy heads with strong jaws. The first you encounter is the Barroth, an insectivore that lives at the edges of deserts and covers itself in mud to protect itself from the sun while searching for anthills. Then there's Deviljho, who debuts in Monster Hunter 3 (Tri), and its variant Savage Deviljho, who debuts in the expansion Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate. Both monsters are Brute Wyverns with small arms and large heads, and extremely aggressive temperaments. They're also prone to repeatedly hunt preys to eat. | |

Temtem: Tyranak is based on the T. rex, and the Tempedia describes it as a relic from prehistoric times. Judging from the names of its traits (Intimidator and Frightening), it seems to have a fearsome reputation. Unlike many examples, it has a few feathers; or rather, leaves that resemble feathers on its cheeks and tail. Also, befitting for a Temtem based on a creature that lived at the very end of the Cretaceous, it learns several techniques that involve meteors. | |

Horizon Zero Dawn: In-universe. All the machines are based on animals, especially extinct megafauna. The most violent and dangerous is the Thunderjaw, which is clearly based on the T. rex. Since in-universe it's explicitly a robot only outwardly based on giant theropods, it has a number of divergent traits — besides being a full Armless Biped, it has jaw-mounted laser cannons, shoulder-mounted explosive disc launchers, and scanning equipment, so the designer wasn't too worried about artistic accuracy. | |

Ninja: Shadow of Darkness: The boss of the cloud city level is a winged T. rex-looking monster. The dragon-like wings sticking out its back, combined with its tiny T. rex arms, make it look as ridiculous and awkward as it sounds. | |

Yu-Gi-Oh! has several dinosaur monsters that are clearly inspired by T. rex, like Black Tyranno. In the anime series, this card was used by Rex Raptor and Tyranno Hassleberry. | |

The kaiju Gorosaurus was created for King Kong Escapes as an obvious homage to the tyrannosaur King Kong originally fought in King Kong (1933), being a large theropod without any special abilities (with the exception of a fancy kick) who gets his jaw broken at the end. Supplementary material says he's descended from Allosaurus however. | |

Quintaglio Ascension: The Quintaglios are the descendants of small tyrannosaurs, transplanted to an inhabitable moon to escape the extinction of the dinosaurs. The species that did the actual transplanting genetically engineered them to have five fingers, the ability to regenerate severed limbs, and a high intelligence. They also have some peculiarities like muzzles that flush blue when they lie and the ability to rest on their tails, kangaroo-style. There are also actual tyrannosaurs (although probably not rex) that they call "blackdeaths" for their solid black coloration. | |

Fighting Fantasy: The "Pit Fiend" encountered late in Deathtrap Dungeon can be described as a more upright T. rex popular with gladiator arenas, hence its name. It should be noted that the actual Tyrannosaurus rex has a separate entry in the Out of the Pit supplement, and it does have stronger stats than a Pit Fiend. | |

Fear & Hunger has the Greater Blight, a giant fleshy t-rex monster found in The Void, an endgame level for endings C and D. It will constantly chase the player down, with its approach signaled by ominous messages and loud footsteps. If the player fails to hide in one of the holes around the map, it will engage them in an inescapable battle where they're almost guaranteed to die. | |
