For any fossil hunters and Paleontologists out there, a must have item is coming to the market with quite a price tag.

Stan the Tyrannosaurus Rex will be on the auction block at Christie's in Manhattan.

Stan is named after the paleontologist who uncovered the bones back in 1987 in the Black Hills of South Dakota.

The fossil is being sold by the Black Hills Institute and will be auctioned on October 6th.

And this nearly living piece of history could be yours for a cool $8 million; at least that's how much he's expected to go for, but there is no reserve.

And you'll need some space to house Stan, too.

Stan measures in at 37-feet long
