Little bit off topic here, but in the original JP, the T-Rex survived, right? What if this Rex is the original one. Would explain the deco.

maybe, it is the same island after all. But I'm hoping that t-rex is from a jp1 set with tour cars and breakable fence and restroom. That would be my dream set.

Wasn't the T-Rex from JP1 more green/grey-ish ?

nope, it was pretty close to the lego one above. I believe the rexes from 2 and 3 were more greenish. You can trust me, I've only seen jurassic park 15 times or so.

That's the right color scheme, but it's a bit light. The Rex in the film was a darker shade of brown than this. The middle orange color should be the lightest, reddish brown should be the middle, and then dark brown where it currently is, I think would look better.

I don't know about the Lost World, but at least in III, the Rex was very green/gray. It was actually one of my favorite designs for the T-Rex, shame they killed him so quickly. Spinosaurus was okay, but truly, the coolest dinosaur in that film was Carnataurus. :wink:

Neat! I missed out on all but the smallest little dino in the 2012 Dino theme; shame there are no triceratops in evidence, so far, but I'm thrilled to see so many raptors, and the Rexes look wonderful. Let's get some herbivores in the mix!

I don't remember there being a carnataurus in jp3, if you mean the red dino at the spino "droppings" that was a ceratosaurus. If that's what you mean, I'm totally with you. Really wish he got more screen time.

Agreed. A stegosaurus would be cool. But the one I really want is a brachiosaurus. (I don't know anything about Jurassic Park, they do exist in the movies, right?)

sure did. In 1 and 3. Although not in 2, there was one similar to the brachiosaurus in that movie.

my jurassic park nerdyness is going crazy. Sorry. :grin:

So it was. It's been a few years since I've seen it, for some reason I must've mixed them up.

He was truly the best part of the film.

We've been asked by TLG to refrain from sharing or hosting images of the new dinosaurs that have leaked. Apparently it is causing some woes between TLG and the licensee.

PLEASE DO NOT POST ANY OF THESE PICTURES. Thank you. I'll let you guys know when we have post-able pictures or you can contact me with any questions.

Interesting that my guesses about the D-Rex's spines and larger jaw turned out to be true, so far it appears to have elevated itself into my second favourite Lego big-figure of all time (bar Smaug of course.)

I'm astounded by the amount of raptors we're getting, this means that either the battlepack idea, with 2-3 raptors is actually a reality (though judging by the set list, I doubt it), or that we are getting a raptor in each set. Unfortunately, I'm slightly frustrated by the underside on two of the raptor's head's doesn't match the body, although they still look amazing :classic: and that some of the dinos look a bit too bright and colourful for movie adaptions, although the beautiful D-Rex is excepted from this. :wub:

The T-Rex is perhaps one of my least favourite dino, although it's eyes are brilliant. The balance is restored by the D-Rex's eyes, which are a bit too plain and bright for me, although that is it's only downside.

If these are the only dinosaurs to be released in the set's, it seems like quite a plain wave. I'm hoping we'll get a pterosaur, triceratops, mosasaurus and ankylosaurus in this wave on top of the dinosaurs we are already getting, plus a Spinosaurus, Stegosaurus and Ceratosaurus in the second wave based on the original trilogy.

Am I the only one who thinks the D-Rex molds would be great for a Giganontosaurus and some parts of a Spinosaurus?

I quite like the ceolyphisis, it's a cute little Dino, but really wish it's colourscheme had been a bit less bright.

The dinos look awesome! I really look forward to getting these JP sets, Isadly missed out on most of the dino sets from the past. I MUST have a t-rex though! Too bad they are usually in the most expensive sets.

I think the raptors with the head and body color mix don't look good at all

I quite like the ceolyphisis, it's a cute little Dino, but really wish it's colourscheme had been a bit less bright.

I was hoping that JW would use the same molds as the dino line but with darker more realistic colors looks like they have gone the other way and makes me a bit worried for the film.

So 5 sets 1 D-Rex 1 T-Rex 1 ceolyphisis and 4 Raptors, what were the price points again? That could be all the dinos we are getting?

Ok found the prices Just2good gave from the NZ ones

$19.99 - A Raptor you would hope

$39.99 -

$49.99 -

$69.99 - T-Rex

$119.99 - D-Rex (for sure)

I wish the colours of these dinos were more realistic, they seem too bright to me. I much prefer the dinos from 2012.

As a kid I remember thinking the original JP toy line had brighter colors than the dinos in the movie. LEGO's take on the new ones remind me of those old toys in that way.

I've seen those, the Kenner ones? They have a certain appeal, but are really dated. LEGO's really does bring those to mind. First thing I thought when I saw them.
