"Ameising!" (must be pronounced as if it was German)
But I think the Sauroposeidon should also have a speech bubble.

Tarbosaurus and extrapolated Saurophaganax crania comparedI know, it's basically a big waste of time, one has very few cranial remains referred, the other has lots of them, and they never coexisted. However I did my best so that it may become useful since both are crowded in mystery to most people (few have ever bothered to think about how big S. maximus' cranium was and even fewer realise what the actual size and skull size of T. bataar are). Theoretical Saurophaganax maximus skull based on this: alloskull.ods (14.67 KB) Blaze explained on Tarbosaurus on Carnivora, the 135cm were measured along the skull's side and when compared to T. rex specimens it should be about this size.

B. rex vs BHI 3033
Two specimens being in almost the same age (Stan: 18 years old, B. rex: 19 years old). MOR 1125 is very small specimen, even as young adult Tyrannosaurus rex. She is also smaller than Wy-rex, Black Beauty and probably shorter than MOR 009 and Bucky, which are around as young as she. While Stan is relatively large compared to other 18 year old adults, it was probably closer in size to slightly older AMNH 5027 and Carnegi (holotype). The total length estimate of MOR 1125 is based on Stan's femoral length. The weigth estimate for Stan is from Bates et al's paper (the lowest estimates). Note: I made size for showing difference that are in animals from the species, even in almost the age. I'm not Dino-Nazist/Nazipodomorph and i won't work for them, i don't introduce terror only against one type of fanboy even though i very dislike any fanboys not matter he/she is fanboy of T. rex or other thing. I'm not biased against any animal. Sources: 1. Bates et al. Estimating Mass Properties of Dinosaurs Using Laser Imaging and 3D Computer Modelling 2. Erickson et al. Tyrannosaur Life Tables: An Example of Nonavian Dinosaur Population Biology 3. Theropod Database 4. Scott Hartman's devian art (Stan femoral and total length estimate, which is in description Stan vs Sue).

Two South American giant: Puertasaurus and Giganotosaurus! Puertasaurus was one of the largest dinosaurs, and even the widest according to Nima. This dinosaur lived in the late cretaceous. It was around to 38 meters long. Giganotosaurus was a giant Theropod comparable in size with Tyrannosaurus. It was over 12 meters long, and it was a derivated member of Carcharodontosauridae.

It doesn't cease to amaze how animals equivalent in size to large african bush elephant bulls are totally dwarfed by some sauropods (and that's Hartman's P. reuili, Nima's is much bigger still).

Judging from the actual material Nima's is just exaggerated. Scott's is probably a bit small ~28m, and Nima's way to big at ~38m, 30-32m seems most likely.

A scale of one of my favorite dinosaurs! This is the larger specimen of Balaur bondoc, which I modified from Chris Mansa's melanistic Velociraptor.

Achillobator giganticus Pretty large dromaeosaurid that measured over 5m an weight probably more than 300 kg. This species is only known from partial skeleton of holotype (FR.MNUFR-15), which was found in Mongolia (Bayan Shireh Formation).

The latest iteration of my A. simus skeletal and the WIP of my Daeodon skeletal, of the specimen originally named Dinohyus, surprisingly enough, it appears that there's bigger specimens of Daeodon out there.

Every single time...that thing just has an enourmous skull!

Wait, how much bigger are the specimens you are talking about? That one already looks like its approaching a ton and it has the skull size of an Allosaurus...
