What i mean is any non-feathered rex. Yes. I'm still support a non feathered rex because i grew up seeing t-rex without feathers kicking butt and taking names. Seeing a feathered rex just leaves a bad taste in my mouth, but that is just me.
Sorry to disappoint you, but T. rex almost certainly had feathers. And evolution doesn't care about your childhood. Maybe learn to appreciate dinosaurs as animals instead of awesomebro'd reptilian monsters.
I truthfully prefer Tyrannosaurus with little or no feathers but if they are designed correctly, I will accept the feathered rex. I don't generally like the rexes that look like chickens: Posted Image
But I instead prefer the rexes that have short fine feathers. I still love Tyrannosaurus even if it is depicted as an over-sized fluff ball. Plus there have been skin impressions of Gorgosaurus found that display small hexagonal and very fine scales.

True, but only in very small portions and only on the undersides IIRC. It could still easily have been feathered (and very likely was).

Good point. But I remain an advocate for little feathers. That doesn't mean that I prefer it a scaly monster though.

@AVC: Funny that more than half of that are Conway's... :P
Actually most are by Mark Witton.

@CyborgIguana-I agree about the Papo Raptor. It's just a JP ripoff with feathers slapped on it.

@Atomic NM-There's no reason that Rex would have little feathers.

I know, I have no scientific reasoning for this. It is purely an opinionated view. I would never purposefully say that Tyrannosaurus never had large feathers covering most of its body. It is in fact very likely.

They only reason, why it wouldn't have big feathers is: because it could be unpractical
for hunt.

Guys, this is the favourite reconstructions topic, not the "discussion about feathers" one ;)

Fine, then what aren't cancer for you when it comes to Dromaeosaur's depiction before science took the feather seriously?

I think he meant the Papo Raptor.
