I also want to say that the Triceratops looks really nice in those colours. So does the T. rex. I seriously doubt I'll be picking up either of those sets though. I'm on the fence about the Baryonyx one too. The Dilophosaurus one, however, is small enough and tantalizing enough to snap up.

This new set is exclusive to the Lego House attraction in Denmark. It's a small-scale rendition of the large dinosaurs made from Lego bricks on display inside the building.



The display they're modeled after:

A real shame it's only available at the LEGO House store.  :(

There is also apparently a new Jurassic World magazine coming on April 30th. Although so far, I have not found any other info about it. Well, let's hope it does not come with yet another Owen.
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

Some captions just for fun:

"26 years ago, one of your relatives killed Dennis Nedry. Come with me and you get a chance to kill his nephew."


"Life finds a way!"


"He chose...poorly."

Why the Baryonyx has raptor's sickle claws?

It reuses the Indoraptor's body. Only the head is new.

The paraphrase a probably way too overused Jurassic Park quote: It's just Lego getting cheap on us.

Well, reusing parts whenever possible has always been one of LEGO's core principles. I certainly do agree that the Baryonyx would be much nicer with new hands and feet, however.

You mean the one that was Jurassic Park anyways?

Anyways, the new Lego Jurassic World magazine is out:
https://www.blue-ocean.de/legor-jurassic-worldtm/detail/detail/die-dinos-kommen/
Seeing how the Baby Raptor included is another release of the 2018 Blue ( which I have thanks to the Baby Velociraptor Playpen polybag ), I won't pick it up. If it was the 2019 Blue or one of her sisters, things would be different.
And they are taunting us with a Spinosaurus again.

Next issue will come with yet another Owen and brown Baby Raptor. Basically the two figures from the 2018 issues ( Raptor was issue 1, which I picked up, Owen was issue 2, which I had no interest in ), but without most of the accesories. So yeah, also uninteresting for me.

As this seems to have been added to Brickset, I'll also add it to the first post.

Lego announced yesterday that an upcoming Ideas set will be this set of brick-built skeletons:


Front to back: Brachiosaurus, Dilophosaurus, Plesiosaurus, Stegosaurus, and Triceratops

It probably won't be out until 2020, but this seems like the right thread for the announcement.

It should be noted that the final versions will look different from these ones. LEGO always modifies the Ideas sets once they are approved.

True! Hey, as long as they don't swap one of these out for a Ty***nosaurus, I'll be happy  ;D

Yeah, probably. Also likely to be exclusive to LEGO stores and LEGO.com. I think it may even a record for the most brown pieces in a set.

It hasn't been officially announced yet, so no word on what stores will be stocking it. But again, it'll certainly be purchasable on LEGO.com or at LEGO store locations.

Very clever how the gateway houses scenes from the film. The toilet is a particularly wry touch.

Also note that the T. rex's ball-jointed arms allow for non-pronates wrists!  :D
