It’s a shame taking photos in a toy store wasn’t that obvious or even considered normal back in 1993, because I loved seeing those shelves stuffed with Jurassic Park toys. These days it’s a lot easier with an iPhone in your pocket, so I took these photos the past few months at different toy stores.
These three photos I took today at a Dreamland toy store in Belgium. It shows the standard Hasbro standee. Somehow a Jada RC Jeep Wrangler ended up in there too.
The next photo was taken in May 2015 when the toys just hit the stores here. It’s the same standee but without the Velociraptor visual on top.
This toy store decided not to use the standee. Here you can see the action figures and the Hero Mashers lines.
Here are photos from two different toy stores from back in May when the first sets started to hit the shelves.
This doesn’t look right at a local Carrefour supermarket…
And finally a shelf at the LEGO Store in Antwerp, Belgium.
Damn, I wish I would have picked up some stuff earlier. There is nothing in my entire hometown Jurassic anything related… I went on a mission the other day and after visiting every single store that would or could sell toys… I found three things. Although I don’t enjoy the JW stuff as much as the vintage stuff, it is neat.
