As much as I would love some all-new dinosaur figures from LEGO, I suspect the 2020 sets will mostly consist of repaints again. But we shall see.

We will probably get an 'Allosaurus'....with two fingered hands


Flaffy

I wonder if we'll get a sinoceratops based on this as well


And that Allosaurus looks cursed. The head looks more like a ceratosaur, and the rex arms are just Lego laziness at it's finest.

LEGO can always reuse the raptor arms in place of T. rex arms. I'd rather see an oversized Allosaurus in place of yet another Rexy repaint.

Sinoceratops or any other ceratopsian would also be welcome, although I wonder if LEGO is willing to shell out for an entirely new head piece.

They should make a Stegosaurus.  And then they could re-use the Stego body with the Trike head and voila: Stegoceratops.

Also at least four standard JW sets on the way. I'll post more when they're revealed.

Oh my, another Owen. Isn't he in every set anyways?

This here is probably a bit more exciting:

Yep, basically a Mini Version of the T.rex Rampage model.  And Triceratops coming soon.
Jurassic Park is frightning in the dark
All the dinosaurs are running wild
Someone let T. Rex out of his pen
I'm afraid those things'll harm me
'Cause they sure don't act like Barney
And they think that I'm their dinner, not their friend
Oh no

Thanks, CityRaptor! I'll add that to the first post.

Four new sets:


More info here:

Not interested in translating everything, here is which figures are inside:

75939
Dinosaurs: Baby Ankylosaurus, Baby Triceratops, eggs
Humans: Owen, Wu

75940
Dinosaurs: Gallimimus
Pterosaurs: Pteranodon
Humans: Owen,  park employee

75941
Dinosaurs: Indominus Rex, Ankylosaurus
Humans: Owen, Claire, Claire's nephews, park employee
Guess this is inspired by the first JW.

75942
Dinosaurs: Velociraptor Adult and Baby
Humans: 2 ( Bet one of them is Owen )

Figures that the Ankylosaurus would be in the most expensive set. Probably won't be able to pick up that one. The Gallimimus sounds intriguing, although I'm betting that it will reuse the same body piece as the Velociraptor, Dilophosaurus, and Stygimoloch. Probably will retain the arms as well.

Thanks for the info; I've added the names and set numbers to the first post. Are these really the official names? They're terrible.

What about "Land and Water Hunting" could possibly be unappealing?

When I first saw that title, I thought wed finally be getting a Lego Mosasaurus. Unfortunately, it turned to be like most liscensed Lego sets: deeply uninteresting. I would like a big, brick-built Mosasaurus set in the style of the Jurassic Park T. rex they did. Just not for $250.

Pretty sure that Jurassic Park: T. rex Rampage is a one time thing. If LEGO ever does release a set with Mosasaurus, it'll be a snap-together figure like all the others. Possibly an extra large one like the Smaug figure they did for The Hobbit.

Stuckasaurus (Dino Dad Reviews)

Wasn't there already a LEGO "Gallimimus"  set that literally just reused a Coelophysis figure or something like that?

Yes, it was a simple polybag set:

That thing appeared in one of the comics. And I think Sideshow made a statue of it.

Yes, it was featured in Old Man Logan:



And I've seen the maquette at my local comic book store. Way too pricey for me to consider.

A magazine exclusive Triceratops similar to the T. rex has been revealed. Looks nice:
