Saw this by coincidence:

Indominus Rex and a chase variant of her.

Jurassic Park/World is also in a new game:

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

In a number of European countries, including Poland and Hungary, Kinder is selling Kinder Joys with mini Jurassic World Funko Pops
Poland: https://www.kinder.com/pl/pl/kinder-joy

gosh funkos design looks so bad

That's the problem with Funko POPs. They someomhow manage to make Chibis not look cute, instead turning them into some sort of blank-eyed, featureless things....The Mystery Minis are better, at least the non-human ones.

Of course those are based on POPs, although the colors kinda remind me of the Monster in My Pocket Dinosaurs.

Meanwhile in Germany, Kinder Joy has Funko Harry Potter...two annoying franchises in one.

Kind of an odd release. Other then the Tyrannosaurus in the first film, it's not like any of the main dinosaurs had skeletons shown anywhere.

I actually like those a lot. Neat idea to hold the bones together with rock, like a specimen in prep. I might get these.

Funkos look substantially better without those soulless doll eyes. It also obscures the fact they didn't know which holes were the Rex's eye sockets.

It's funny that the rex is so detailed that it even had gastralia, but they didn't know where the eyes go. Though I think it ultimately looks better than if they tried to squish all the fenestrae forward to make the orbit fit where the eyes would go in Funko's chibi style

Never been a huge fan of the Jurassic POPs aside from the Mystery Mini Giganotosaurus, mainly because I find many of them unsettling, but these fossils are particularly interesting.

In the meantime, I got a bunch of Kinder minis. some of the dinosaurs have not yet been released as POPs, which is cool, and the pencil decorations have great design. Stygimoloch looks like an embryo!
