Review: Kenner Jurassic Park series II Gallimimus

Posted on Leave a comment

Jurassic Park series II, released by Kenner in 1994, was a line of action figures and dinosaurs based on the popular film and succeeded Kenner’s toy line released the year before. One of the most popular and sought-after figures in the line was the Gallimimus, a herbivorous dinosaur which was seen in one of the film’s most iconic scenes when the T. rex attacks a flock of Gallimimus. The Kenner Gallimimus figure was detailed and somewhat accurate to its appearance in the film. It stood at the same size as the other Electronic dinosaurs from the first and second Jurassic…

A Jurassic Park pin brooch for every occasion

Posted on Leave a comment

An outfit in the 1990s wasn’t complete without a Jurassic Park touch. Back in 1993, British company Dufort & Sons Ltd. made Jurassic Park licensed pin brooches featuring photos of the film’s star dinosaurs. They are made of hard plastic with the artwork printed on them, which makes them prone to scratching. The Jurassic Toys collection has a complete set of these pin brooches on their original card backs. Check them out here:

Sarah… Sarah Harding!

Since 2018 when Mattel inherited the Jurassic World license, they’ve been pleasing Jurassic fans with their Legacy Collection subline. This line mostly takes its inspiration from the first three Jurassic Park films with big hits like the Comic-Con Exclusive John Hammond, Brachiosaurus, the T-Rex Escape pack with the Ford Explorer tour vehicle and the recently released Isla Sorna Capture Pack with Roland Tembo. The latest Legacy set that Mattel is adding to their Legacy line is the Sarah Harding and Stegosaurus Pack, directly inspired by The Lost World. I found this set at a toy store while on vacation in…

What’s a Super Colossal Speed Dino?

Posted on Leave a comment

The Super Colossal T-Rex was among the first few dinosaurs I purchased back in 2018 when Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom was released. Since then Mattel has released quite a few more Super Colossal dinosaurs like Indominus Rex, Velociraptor Blue and Carnotaurus “Toro” from Camp Cretaceous. For the new Dominion film, Mattel is putting out even more of these oversized dinosaurs. Giganotosaurus was again one of the first dinosaurs I purchased from this new toy line. And the other day another colossal arrived: Atrociraptor which was known as Speed Dino in early reseller lists to avoid spoilers. Check out this @Jurassic.Toys…

Extreme Damage Allosaurus review

Posted on Leave a comment

Three Extreme Damage dinosaurs were released last month as part of Mattel’s Jurassic World Dominion toy line. These dinosaurs featured the new Extreme Damage effect that can be triggered by pushing a button on the back of the dinosaur. The permanent scratches on both of its sides will then turn red. For the Roarin’ Allosaurus, Mattel opted to go for the “sliding hatch” effect they first introduced with their Battle Damage line in 2018. Pushing down the “hatch” will show its rib cage that can be lifted up and reveal soft tissue beneath. Check out a quick video review of…

Does disappointment come in small packages?

Posted on Leave a comment

Captivz Jurassic World eggs are just great. Opening these truly contain fun surprises. Sticky slime and a miniature dinosaur from the Jurassic universe. And a pog that can be used to play a game with your friends when you have collected them all. So when I found these blue Jurassic World eggs, my curiosity was immediately triggered. The package says they were made by Undercover GmbH in Germany. Looking at the shelf near the cash register, they made similar suprise eggs for Spider-Man, the Disney Princesses and other brands. Grabbing 4 (FOUR!) of them, I should have know my expectations…
