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 Stegosaurus figure was notable for its iconic back plates and spiked tail. It had a swinging action by pulling it to the side and letting it go, causing the tail to lash out, mimicking the defensive actions of this peaceful herbivore. The textured green soft skin gave it a naturalistic appearance. Although it wasn’t featured in the first Jurassic Park film, it was one of the prominent dinosaurs in Michael Crichton’s original novel.
