In 1993, Kenner released a now-iconic line of Jurassic Park toys to coincide with the release of the groundbreaking film. These toys were highly detailed and packed with features that brought the movie’s thrilling dinosaur action to life. The line included human characters, vehicles, and a range of dinosaurs, many with electronic features or action-based functionalities, making them some of the most memorable and sought-after collectibles from the early 90s. Each toy came with unique accessories and play features, allowing fans to recreate scenes from the film or imagine their own adventures.
The Alan Grant figure came equipped with a shotgun and a net launcher, capturing his portrayal as the no-nonsense paleontologist from the film. The toy included a Pteranodon figure, with outstretched wings and a menacing beak, though the Pteranodon was notably absent from the first movie. This pairing added an imaginative touch to the line, giving Alan Grant a prehistoric adversary to contend with. The action-packed accessory choices emphasized his role as a protector of those in peril while evoking his scientific expertise.
