Now here’s some really cool news: Mattel has made the first ever toy of the North American elasmosaur Styxosaurus!
Apparently this will be in the same Gigantic Trackers wave as the Suchomimus. It is the first Jurassic World plesiosaur to have flippers that move as part of the action feature.
Yet another Jurassic World Legacy Reimagined set has shown up on Target’s website: Chopper Chase Pack.
It consists of a red and black Atrociraptor, an Asset Containment Unit pilot with helmet and weapon, and a projectile-firing helicopter of highly dubious flight capability.
The shark mouth motif on the chopper may be a homage to the Capture Copter from Kenner’s original Jurassic Park toy line.
Today marks the start of Dinovember and two 2024 sets from LEGO have been revealed!
Baby Dinosaur Rescue Centre. None of these are new moulds, but it’s neat to get this many in one set.
Dinosaur Fossils: T. rex Skull. Now this is a pretty impressive bit of architecture.
Three new LEGO Jurassic World sets have been revealed! First up is a brick-built Baby Bumpy Ankylosaurus.
As you can see, Bumpy features a swinging head and tail and lots of yummy fresh greens to munch on.
Dinosaur Missions: Stegosaurus Discovery finally introduces an iconic dinosaur to the LEGO world.
Jurassic Park/World fans should be very excited by all the new Hammond Collection toys that have been revealed this week, both of the dinosaur and human persuasion.
Corythosaurus.
Irritator.
Metriacanthosaurus.
Stegosaurus baby.
Tyrannosaurus baby.
Dennis Nedry and John Hammond.
Mattel’s latest take on Tyrannosaurus rex is the “All Out Attack” toy. The colour scheme is sadly nothing to wrote home about, however . . .
. . . this tyrant boasts a brand new ability: extending teeth. Yup, you read that right. The teeth in the upper jaw can extend to nearly twice their length.
Two new Hammond Collection toys have been revealed, both creatures from Jurassic World: Dominion. First is the Giganotosaurus.
As you can see, this toy features some heavy articulation, including a jointed tongue and a flexible tail.
And the second new addition is the Therizinosaurus.
Still more images of 2024 Jurassic World toys have shown up online!
Danger Pack.
Craterosaurus. To my knowledge, this is the very first toy of the European stegosaur.
Kileskus. The diminutive Russian tyrannosauroid is also receiving its very first toy.
Gigantic Trackers.
Take a look at two more interesting 2024 Mattel Jurassic World Danger Pack toys. First is Craterosaurus, an Early Cretaceous stegosaur from England known from just a partial vertebra (which clearly didn’t deter Mattel).
And the other is Kileskus, a Middle Jurassic tyrannosauroid from Russia.
