    Really want a second Dilophosaurus Ambush set! Someone help me justify it so I don't feel so guilty about giving LEGO all my money?
  2. Tom Jurassic
    That's cool, but not something I am overly bothered about sourcing thankfully! Post pics if you guys get it!

    Well that was disappointing - I love MB as well as Lego. I really hope we get more than one wave too. Jurassic World looks set to really capture the magic around Dinosaur, and I feel like one wave does not do it justice. This is the come back of a long-awaited franchise, and that is something which should be celebrated.

    Sweet - glad to hear you got Raptor Escape man, and the Dilophosaurus set rocks as I absolutely love the jeep! Glad you like both of them man.
  5. Tom Jurassic
    Glad to hear you liked the set - it is one of my favorites! The design of the truck grows on me more and more every time I play around with it!

    Well I'm jealous now! I prefer the 2014 Coelyphsis. Thank you for the comparison shot! As a side note, I notice you have Mega Bloks? Have you heard of TheSSMotion? I'm Tom from that channel.

    Great review man, really well written and structured. Hoping to go on a hunt and see if this is available in UK stores soon.

    Oh my god, I apologize if I've offended you. I didn't think! Dude (I call everyone dude, hope that's okay ) you should post some comparison pictures, that'd be awesome to see! Do you have the Triceratops from the Dino line? If so I am jealous!

    Glad to hear you were able to get your hands on the Poly man. You hoping to get multiples? :)
  10. Tom Jurassic
    You never know ;)
  11. Tom Jurassic
    Don't get it! It's not as if it includes two amazingly well-designed Raptors, the two main characters, a sweet motorbike and a really cool truck design that is almost spot-on to the source material.

    We all do Scooter, so here's hoping! I'm holding you to that. Nice ideas man - another recoloured Coelophysis would not go a miss. Or maybe a vet or ACU member with the Baby T-Rex? That could be a cool little set. My dream set would be an ACU Guy in Vest and Helmet with a small Fence section that could be built up, Btw, sorry if anyone gets sick of me being so active in this thread - JW is my life until the film releases.
  13. Tom Jurassic
    Hahaha, tis indeed ironic! And no worries pal. Are there are any Polybags you hope to see, Veyronian?
  14. Tom Jurassic
    Lemme know if you still need a Rocket and I'll head back to my local TRU in the next couple of weeks
  15. Tom Jurassic
    No worries man - hope you like it if you decide to get it. As far as I am aware, there isn't any official word on it. I contacted TRU regarding release in the UK a while back and they said it wasn't really available in the UK at that point. I guess it may be a waiting game like with Marvel's SDCC Rocket Raccoon. If I find any and you are having trouble finding them, let me know. Does anyone think we could see more Polybags for JW?

    That's fantastic news - really happy to hear it is being received so well as a line! Thanks for sharing with us buddy, really appreciate it. Dilophosaurus Ambush - The Dilophosaurus is a very nice Dinosaur, although is very reminiscent to the Raptors apart from some slight distinctions. The Gyrosphere is an extremely nice piece and is setting up to be a staple of Jurassic World, so it is definitely nice to have that. The Jeep is very nice too, with a lot of nice functionality packed into the design and a good sense of scale to it - this is easily my favorite vehicle from the first wave. The figure of Gray has very nice printing, and the ACU trooper is nice, although this is the only ACU trooper to not contain a vest, which makes him look odd with the others. Overall, a nice set if you want a jeep but would have maybe benefitted from another figure. Raptor Escape - The Raptors in this set are my favorite two, with really nice printing on them which makes both distinctive and really, really fun to have. Plus, here you get two Dinos, allowing for more versatility in terms of setups. The ATV is a nice vehicle, although slightly large, and both Barry and the Vet receive fantastic quality printing which really brings their characters to life - plus, Barry appears to be fairly important in the film, perhaps more so than Gray. The Pen, although barebones, is very nice, with a lot of functionality packed into the design, and a lot of nice features for the size. The aesthetics here are nice to and it really feels like an awesome little pen for the Raptors. Plus, if you purchase Raptor Rampage in the future, the pen can hold all four. The win here really is Raptor Escape in my eyes. Although more expensive, it is a much better set and offers you a fantastic structure to expand your Jurassic World setup with. Hope that helps. Also - a happy person! I preordered my copy of LEGO Jurassic World from GAME and got the Galimimus edition, so I'll soon have a complete JW collection apart from the standalone Dr Wu polybag. Hope TRU UK starts selling the Galimimus too - I'd army build!

    For the price, both are exceptional. What do you prefer - Structural pieces or Vehicles? I can lay out the positives and negatives for each one if you want man.

    Thanks for taking the time out to write that all up in response buddy - I really appreciate the insight! So it sounds as if LEGO Jurassic World is doing okay as a standalone theme, which is good news. I imagine after the films release in about nine days time, and the release of the video game to coincide with that, we may see a boost in sales, as consumers tend to invest more in film merchandise after seeing a film that they have enjoyed. Be interesting to keep tabs on the line and see if sales increase after the films release. As much as it pains me to say it, at the moment it is unlikely. TLG have always been reluctant to release a Dinosaur line with more than one wave, and it looks as if this license is likely to be no different. That said, they did pay the licensing fee, so if they feel there is the potential for more revenue off the license, they may release another wave. I personally would love it! A lot of the designs in the upcoming Jurassic World game look fantastic, so they could easily transition them into sets, giving us sets based on the old films and some more JW sets too. At this moment it all depends on sales, as TLG feel they have already covered the old films with the studio sets. But you never know with LEGO, so keep your eyes open!

    Haha, agreed with you there! It's a shame that most of Lego's dinosaur lines are so short - they have plenty of potential, especially considering the game already features several other vehicles that they could make. I'd love a big £100 set for Wave 2 with part of the Monorail, the seating for the Mosasaur arena, and that lovely big Mosasaur.
  20. Tom Jurassic
    Tis indeed, as is the Gallimimus. Both were actually not designed by LEGO, but by guys at TT Games with consultancy from designers, which makes their design even more impressive. I'm still holding out hope for a second wave - if we kick up enough fuss, it may happen. Is JW LEGO selling well around people?
  21. Tom Jurassic
    Awesome build! Reminds me of the crate scene at the start of the original. Great work man :)
  22. Tom Jurassic
    That Sprinter-Van in LEGO looks fantastic from what we see of it! I am really hopeful that we see a second wave of Jurassic World sets, especially considering it has been stated repeatedly that all in-game models can be created with LEGO. It seems like LEGO would be silly not to!
  23. Tom Jurassic
    Lego Jurassic Park project did not pass. So gutted right now.
  24. Tom Jurassic
    Got to play the game a bit day - not too different from other LEGO Games but captures the JP theme nicely and was fun. Only played the demo levels which have already been shown - was really hoping for a Jurassic World demo but no such luck unfortunately. Also met some cool guy from Universal and saw snippets of new JW footage. This was all at MCM Expo London.
  25. Tom Jurassic
    Both of you are thinking of the right one! The I Rex egg would be cool. :) The way Clare screams and it echoes through gives me chills!!!
