Lion King Posted February 6 Posted February 6 It looks like mutant dinosaur is called “D-Rex”? The one with four arms. Anyways, i feel like we won’t see it in Lego form. I mean, would they re-use mutant dinosaur’s body parts? 4 hours ago, Brickwraith said: It was the theme Dinosaurs, set 6721 from 2001 Yup that’s one! Quote

Black Falcon Posted February 6 Posted February 6 11 hours ago, BrickBob Studpants said: That would look terrible. I don‘t mind brick-built creatures, unless they‘re featured in the same set as moulded ones Just replace the T-Rex from the visitor center with its brick-built counterpart from the diorama and you‘ll see how silly that looks. In my opinion, the mostly likely creatures we‘ll see are the mutant, a mosasaurus, Roberta/Rexy, and an aquilops since it‘s apparently the movie‘s mascot. Fingers crossed for the others too, but I‘m not confident they‘all make it. I‘d say titanosaurus is the least likely just because of its size alone. The Titanosaurus was pretty much granted, like all of the three big ones were since their role in the movie was revealed. And anything than reusing the Brachiosaurus-Body would have been surprising. 7 hours ago, BrickBob Studpants said: Huh, I really thought they were digital fan creations …why is the mosasaurus brickbuilt?! It looks like a robot abomination next to the other three. That the Mosasaurus would be Brickbuilt on the other hand was pretty much expected though. The question was more wether they would go for a complete brickbuild creature or give it a moulded head, like they did with Avatar. As for the Dinosaurs, the Spinosaurus looks great, the Mosasaurus looks good too, but the Quetzalcoatlus looks off color wise and what really anoys me is the big bulp on the Titanosaurus´ Head. Quote

It depends on how they do it, we really don't have a firm grasp on what it looks like but because we know it has 4 arms the torso is probably unreusable at least for normal dinos. Quote
AxolotlPlays Posted February 7 Posted February 7 Well i imagine since the Mosa is brickbuilt then so would that mutant, ill be a little disappointed if the budget for 1 more molded species went to D-rex instead of Mosa, so hopefully in the future we can have a molded Mosa! Quote
Matichado Posted February 7 Posted February 7 My new predictions are: 76970 is definitely the mosasaurus. 76972: I still believe it will be a pteranodon set since from what I’ve heard it will indeed appear and have an actually pleasing design based on the unused tlw animatronic. I tho k the price per piece ratio is too big for it to be a raptor. I’m pretty sure this will also have an aquilops mini mold 76973 is clearly going to be the spinosaurus set. And I expect a second dinosaur included so I’m going to say it will be the quetz (now bare with me context isn’t always 1:1 in jw sets examples the Malta set with the T. Rex and the pyroraptor set) 76975 will be a T. rex set almost certainly judging by the price. Probably based of the raft scene 76976 the 150$ im certain will include the oversized titanosaurus and im praying it includes a new dinosaur that is not the D rex, and I’m sure besides that it will have 1 raptor. My wish: titanosaurus miasaura and a raptor, more realistic: titanosaurus d rex and raptor im also going to speculate on the probably store exclusive 76974 which I’m praying includes maiasaura Quote
Time Dragon Posted February 7 Posted February 7 It worrys me that the mosa is brick built, molded animals feel more alive to me and work well next to minifigures. I hope lego doesn't just brick build all the new dinos after this. Quote

Of course, it depends on the size of the raptors if they get the treatment this summer 76973: I can see the spino being in this set, just not with the quetz since the price would have been even higher if that's the case 76975: For certain a rex set with the raft, I can't really see it being anything else 76976: I'm just gonna throw logic out the window and assume that the titano and quetz will share this set If we do get a store exclusive set, then we might see the d rex, but I won't complain if we don't get it cuz of the whole reusing molds thing and the fact it might be a lil too scary for the kids Quote

I hope lego doesn't just brick build all the new dinos after this. I have the same concern, feels like a toe in the water for Lego. Also the printing is starting to decline for some of these which is unfortunate, a lot of these molds have big empty patches, especially on Spino Quote

Fans themselves have no idea what they want, and it's not like they're paying to produce the movie. So called "fans" are just a really small percentage of the actual audience of a movie. Quote
BrickBob Studpants Posted February 7 Posted February 7 Just now, THELEGOBATMAN said: So called "fans" are just a really small percentage of the actual audience of a movie. Indeed. Hardcore fans are a minority, most moviegoers are casual fans or go to see a movie just because they heard about it and never give a single thought about it anymore after leaving the cinema A movie purely made to appease fans would not be a box-office success because you could easily alienate casual moviegoers. They don’t want to feel like they have to do homework before watching a movie. There is a middleground of course ^^ 3 hours ago, AxolotlPlays said: I have the same concern, feels like a toe in the water for Lego. A) This is not the first brickbuilt prehistoric creature though, B) it could be its own set à la the baby ankylosaurus and T-Rex ones, and C) if they really wanted to replace moulded dinos with brickbuilt ones, what stopped them from already doing it with these sets?

Yeah, they've been producing the brickbuilt dinos for this theme since the 2019 DLC with that giant rex, then the diorama and lastly the two baby dinos. I meant (with exception to the diorama and also not counting the skulls) that this is the first inclusion of a brickbuilt species to replace the usual molded one for a minifigure scale playset. You are correct that it could and and probably is that set with the good PPP just by itself. I just mean i hope Lego doesnt start replacing more molded species with brickbuilt ones, i understand why they would, but the molded ones just have a certain feel and nice aesthetic to them, might be bias as i have so much nostalgia to the 2012 dino theme lol, but i, and a lot of others, prefer to keep the new releases cohesive and consistent to the older ones. I do like the builds of them, but i'll take molded over them every day of the week lol I would also like to apologise, before i said the Spino was just a blank colour on the body but i've looked properly now and zoomed in really close on better photos and there is actually some scale prints which is good to see! It, it'll be much nicer in person! 😁 Quote
BrickBob Studpants Posted February 7 Posted February 7 My guess is that a moulded mosasaurus would‘ve been too expensive, so they opted to give it its own set, saving a lot of money while still providing us with all three of the MacGuffins in some form Win-win for them! Unless the mosasaurus is actually included in the same set as the spinosaurus, of course. But even then, I don‘t see them suddenly shifting to brickbuilt dinos. As inconsistent as it is, the mosasaurus is our first and so far only aquatic species. I doubt they‘ll suddenly create brickbuilt versions of previously moulded dinos (in regular playsets I mean) Quote
Lion King Posted February 7 Posted February 7 Are we sure there will be more new dinosaurs this year? I only see two (three if you count mutant….) - Titanosaurus and Spinosaurus. In 2022, we get a lot of new dinosaurs - Pyroratpor, Atriratpor, Gigantosaurus, Therizinosaurus, and Queztacoatlus. It’s just an initial trailer we saw. In 203 we got Brachiosaurus. in 2024, we got Allosaurus and Stegosaurus. Now, this year, Marvel got a few new weirdly-colored dinosaurus. I would assume to see them to show u in Jurassic World theme eventually. Quote

But i am surprised the gave us a molded Titanosaurus, i was expecting that one to be brickbuilt, so im glad they opted for the Brach reuse route! I think for the rest of the sets, we'll get, T.rex, Velociraptor, Mutant D-rex and Aquilops. Maybe might be able to squeeze in a cheap Dilophosaurus in the rex set for the river raft sequence, but thats just speculation. Although i must say, for Aquilops apparently being the mascot of this film, i find it weird that we havent seen it yet.. 3 minutes ago, Lion King said: Now, this year, Marvel got a few new weirdly-colored dinosaurus.

Forgot about those baby molds lol, i dont think they'll show up in these sets, but probably in future TLW/JP3 sets, for the latter we now have a Spino to go alongside that baby Ptera, it is JP3 25th Anniversary next year after all!

Time Dragon Posted February 7 Posted February 7 I just saw another picture of the spinosaurus and it makes the tail look bendable. ProC youtube channel post. Quote
Time Dragon Posted February 7 Posted February 7 Brick fanatics says it's from lego and it kinda looks like a banner ad. Quote
Koolkoalas Posted February 7 Posted February 7 lego has just released a tonne of new rules and legal stuff regarding leaks and rumours. one of which is that unless it comes from lego themselves images may not be shared. essentially this means that if a set gets leaked in a store or online then you cannot post the image as lego will have it taken down. for example when the giga set leaked in 2022 from someone finding it in store you wouldn’t be able to post a picture online of it. due to these rules it is incredibly unlikely to see anymore leaks from jurassic about the sets unless it’s from lego themselves like these images were Quote
