So, I'm curious.
(my apologies if this is already a thread.)

what species/vehicles/people/playsets would you like mattel to make in future?
this also includes repaints you might want to see or resculpts of already made species.
im interested in what all of you have to say, so even if it's just a reply with one or two species names, share it with us!!
artwork of ur ideal future mattel species would be cool to see as well so feel free to make and post that.

More sea reptiles would be nice. Kronosaurus would make for a cool Massive Biter toy.

Pachyrhinosaurus

#4
I found the troodon yesterday and was thinking about how a tylosaurus by Mattel would look. I'd get one based on the game even if it were comparable in size to the sarchosuchus.

Other than that, I would say just more toys that are faithful to the original two films. Maybe a baby triceratops and reworked parasaurolophus. Also human characters we haven't gotten yet.

i've been wanting a tylosaurus so bad!

like they changed up the troodon a little, i'd love to see the tylosaurus given a tail fluke.
no other changes, juuust a tail fluke.

then i would want to buy it lol
mosasaurs without tail flukes r just too outdated for me, like plesiosaurs with bending necks.

ik its jurassic park, but their plesiosaurs were really good! they have the option for an accurate neck pose and an attempt at a tail fluke, pretty good stuff.

and i'm confused as to why the CC parasaurolophus didn't
A
light up
B
show up under a UV torch like the HTTYD 3 toys did
or C
glow in the dark!!!


it's confusing.

More dinosaurs from the Jurassic World: Evolution game. A lot of good design choices and color variants there. They did the Edmontosaurus and Carcharodontosaurus so I'm feeling optimistic. I'll take Acrocanthosaurus, Muttaburrasaurus, Dryosaurus, Homalocephale, and Pentaceratops for starters. Also, a larger scale Triceratops.

Fembrogon

I'm not collecting the line very much anymore, but I'd honestly just be happy to see longer, thicker tails on the dinos. Some of them look good, like Baryonyx; but overall a lot of the tails still look underdeveloped.

I know they're not everyones favorite, but I want see more Snap Squad figures. The next wave with the more expressive faces is a great way to go.
Keep calm and love dinosaurs

I don't collect any of the Mattel figures, including old JP figures in general.
However, the new Tyrannosaurus and Ford Explorer with Tim has really grasp my attention. I really just want more of these iconic JP scenes made into playsets. It would definitely hook me into purchasing mattel figures.

I honestly would like to see a Spinosaurus and Plane duo released. Plane comes with collapsable wings to replicate the JP 3 arrival scene, as well as possible tree that comes along with it?

Another playset idea would be the Bull rex snooping through the campsite. I feel like this is somewhat of an iconic scene, although it would be hard to pull off. This would include a tent like structure and Roland.

Yes I know a lot of these figures have been made, but what really sells, for me at least, is scene oriented sets. I am not a fan of the Jurassic World Evolution, so this includes my choice of unique species from the game to be in-existent.

I'm not much of a JP/JW collector, but sometimes I buy their more obscure dinosaurs. All their non-dinosaurs have been quite well-known ones, however. I'd buy some obscure non-dinosaurs.

I'm not quite sure if kids would be excited over a pair of fish. When it comes to figures, the Jurassic franchise has always stuck to amniotes.
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

Maybe if a fish was packed together with a spinosaurid figure? Kinda like how Chap Mei bundles multiple figures/accessories together in a play set.

With the recent (and very very late) trend of Mattel packing human characters with proper dinosaur figures, maybe they'll be open to introducing more "multipacks" with their regular line.
