Just realized museum gift shops are the real history lesson

Last month at the Field Museum in Chicago I noticed the gift shop sells a $12 plastic T. rex that's anatomically wrong, yet the actual skeleton upstairs has been corrected by science 3 times. Has anyone else found the shop displays more outdated than the exhibits they're attached to?

Gotta admire the dedication to selling a toy that was outdated before the gift shop even opened, while the real dinosaur keeps getting smarter right upstairs.
