![]() It’s also cool to see that this is a Jurassic World set – NOT a Fallen Kingdom set. It is wonderful to see LEGO reaching out to younger children, as childhood is really the age where a fascination with dinosaurs can begin. The jeep is nice with its printed components, and the T-Rex whilst not fully accurate, is bound to be popular with younger children. ![]() Here we get simplified builds at only 22 pieces, but the Owen figure still has his charm. Lastly, we have 10880 – T Rex Tower – LEGO’s first venture into the Duplo line for even younger children. This is a nice tease as to the other dinosaurs we can expect to see in the line, so I cannot wait to see them revealed in their entirety. A fun thing to note here is the back of the box – showing us what appears to be a Carnotaurus, the rumored Indoraptor, Blue, a Stygimoloch, a Pteradon and the baby dinosaur. This one just feels a little too extreme to me – but it is nice to see LEGO trying new things with the dinosaurs. Blue’s colour scheme here is vastly different to the one included in 75917 Raptor Rampage, and for me personally, I prefer the original one. We also have a nicely detailed cage trap which looks really nicely-built and has some cool habitat-style elements built into it, and lastly, Blue the Velociraptor. He doesn’t feature any leg print, but his torso looks accurate to what we have seen from his character, and the face sculpt here looks good. Lastly, we get Ted Levine’s character of Ken Wheatley, who looks good here. We also see what appears to be a mercenary sporting flight goggles and a different ethnicity, which is always nice. The face print, whilst slightly off, is a nice distinction from the one seen in the Jurassic World line – and I appreciate it a lot. We also get Owen here, featuring a brand-new hairpiece, face print and costume. ![]() ![]() Here we also get a small quad-bike in a dark red colour which looks like a rather nice build – making use of LEGO’s new front tow-bar piece to good effect. However, it looks good in Jurassic livery, and has the potential to be rather spacious – something which is exiting as we may be able to get a bunch of mini-figures on-board this vehicle. This set features a predominantly large helicopter, which looks like many LEGO builds we have seen in recent memory. Whilst it would certainly look better at its full scale, this set is a great set for children – and a nice opportunity for fans wanting the T-Rex from the JW line.įollowing on from this, we have 75928 – Blue’s Helicopter Pursuit. Is this possibly foreshadowing a Fallen Kingdom plot point? The rest of the builds, whilst simple, look nice – although the gate suffers from using the standard piece found in all LEGO Juniors sets of this scale. The eggs included here look nice here too – and they seem to be consistent as both this set and the Helicopter set revealed include them. The smaller baby dinosaurs are one of my favorite components of the new line, and I am delighted that LEGO introduced them. The little lab build here is nice – with incubators and a small pen for a baby dinosaur which would look great built into a larger scene – just like that stickered screen with a map of Isla Nublar. The new Claire figure, however, looks fantastic. This is one of my few gripes with the line – they missed a chance to include a wonderful tribute to Jurassic Park. Whilst I can appreciate the nod to Lowery, the lookalike would have been so much better being a fully committed Lowery – using the Jurassic Park T-Shirt torso which we all loved the character for. This set also includes Claire, an ACU Mercenary, and a figure which looks like Lowery. I also love the fact that LEGO opted to include Rexy in a Juniors set – leaving room for other dinosaurs whom we could potentially see in the main line. The T-Rex in this set, whilst identical to the one included in the 75918 T-Rex Tracker set from the Jurassic World line, is a nice opportunity for fans who missed out on those sets to get the iconic star in a set for 2018. ![]() This set is a Juniors set, meaning that it is traditionally a simpler-style LEGO set released for younger fans. Our first offering in the Fallen Kingdom line is 10758 T-Rex Breakout– featuring the iconic T-Rex we all know and fondly call Rexy. ![]()
