Tombola suprise eggs dinosaurs

Produced by Chupachups to capitalise on the global success of Steven Spielberg’s Jurassic Park, these chocolate surprise eggs were marketed and displayed under full Jurassic Park branding, with packaging and retail displays making prominent use of the film’s iconic visual identity.

Of particular note to collectors is the discrepancy between the exterior branding and the enclosed figurines: despite the bold Jurassic Park presentation, the surprise dinosaur toys themselves were generic in design and bore no direct resemblance to the film’s now-legendary creature depictions.

This was not uncommon in the licensed merchandise landscape of the early 1990s, where the commercial appeal of a property was frequently leveraged independently of strict design accuracy.
