I'm a little late to the party but that's alright lol, a lot of thoughts i've had have already been stated by you guys so I will try not to say the same stuff again, im also just going to spoiler it because i wrote a fair bit!

Ah fair enough lol, no insider spies haha jk

Yeah, its really odd how he wasnt included, the Triceratops set was soooo perfect for him, but alas, here we are At least theres a decent chance we'll get Muldoon in the raptor set, hopefully some of these descriptions were wrong or they had inadequate information so its possible to get him still in one of the sets, but probably ublikely ey? Anyone know how they even get this information? Lego employees leaking it or something lol?

Thats really cool, thank you for creating and sharing this! Though personally, and similarly to Brickbob Studpants, I am not disappointed, i think we got the realistic best case scenario with this figure, and the size seems alright to me, it may not be perfectly in scale with the others but it never needed to be, i just hope it'll still be a cool figure with a decent colour scheme and print, btw it can stand on its hind legs apparently so it would be taller than that mutant t.rex lol, but anyways, nice work mate!!

These sets sound awesome! It's nice to finally have an idea of what they'll be like, though I can't help but notice the absense of Muldoon and Genaro? I guess the Velociraptor set said theres two minifigures but i have no idea why Genaro would be included there lol But definitely excited for set pictures and also, the Brachiosaurus might be moulded because of the all the buildings that would take the piece count up which is exciting to have hope again

I think its inevitable for Alan, Ellie, Lex and Tim to be in the Visitors Centre set, and hopefully they are a survivor variant so that would be cool

Ah thats a shame, I suppose we'll just have to rely on leaks and reveals then

I believe everything you've said as I also believe that to be the case lol, I am excited to see this new wave, this could possibly be the best wave Lego has ever created for the Jurassic World theme, but we'll have to see lol Also, perhaps the Triceratops set comes with a fence? Maybe thats what the mysterious build is haha Hmm, good point, I'm not too knowledgable about Lego too far outside of the Jurassic World theme, so things like this are oblivious to me lol, so thank you for mentioning this because now its very compelling, or well, perplexing as you so put it lol I'm not sure how it'll be pulled off if it can't use bigger pieces for the bulk of the structure but as you said, Lego has to follow the rules so, as a 12+ set, it usually would need to be made of generally smaller pieces? This set is so weird lol, i just hope it turns out ok, i am very intruiged to see this, although i guess that goes for like all of the sets lol That would be the best scenario I think, for the low piece count restriction anyways, but as I've said before, i only hope it turns out well, hopefully we can find out soon, i am very excited for this wave

Yeah, i dont know who would prefer a brickbuilt hybrid lol, though it is unfortunate that it seems thats the case Although comparing the price to piece ratios to the dilophosaurus set for example (also just rounding these numbers), 200 pieces for $20 would give us that jeep and figures, maybe if we are lucky a small mud side build with the barbasol can and an east dock sign or something, we'll see, whereas the brachiosaurus set has 500 pieces for $80 (so only 2 and a half times more pieces for 4 times the price), i suppose it is still possible for some new large molds, perhaps the head, legs, neck and tail? Also! I was thinking about the visitors centre set, perhaps the disappointingly low piece count and highish price could mean larger pieces for like the bulky parts of the structure, kinda like what the juniors sets are like, and then we could have hundreds of pieces spared for detailed builds around, of course the T.rex and Velociraptor(/s) would cost a bit, but I'm not too sure, is this plausible in any way?

Yeah, i hope so too, though i suppose if the Brachiosaurus is a brickbuilt and mould hybrid, other species such as the Apatosaurus or Mosasaurus could follow a similar style, though for the Mosasaurus it should probably be moulded in case kids put it in water, it'd stay together better, although the avatar sets you've mentioned oppose my thoughts there lol, guess we'll see though it would be really nice if it were fully moulded

Do you have a source to provide credibility for that? Personally as an educated guess, i reckon that ~200 pieces will be allocated for a jeep anf the remainder for the bulk of the brachiosaurus with moulding for things like its head and maybe neck and legs, but thats just me personally

I guess instead of detailed builds it would just have a larhe flat piece for like a wall with stickers, that could go for the fossil door etc, i am very intrigued to see this wave

Probably most of it except for the head if i were to guess

I have your exact thoughts mate

Yeah haha, it'd be cool, though i understand some people hate having to buy every set, and some can't afford it so that would suck for them in that regard I reckon we might only get 1 ford explorer in this wave and that would be in the triceratops set, becuase i dont think the visitors centre will have the front of the building, i think it'll be the inside with a building of the iconic t rex roaring and the 'when dinosaurs ruled the earth' banner, but thats just my thoughts, also if any vehicle were in that set i think it would be a jeep but i digress lol Yeah lol, if the brachiosaurus is fully molded (hopefully), it would be the creature release that isnt reusing any old parts from other figures, because technically these ones come before it, in order: baby dino, juvenile dilophosaurus, baby triceratops, baby ankylosaurus, quetzalcoatlus (if you ignore those two little shoulder pieces lol). The indoraptor does reuse the indominus' twisty arms so it cant be on the list, however the baby younger versions of species should still count right lol?
