Really digging this channel's toy videos.

When or where did that awesome looking JP3 Pteranodon figure come from?

Looks like Mattel just sold a few more toys. Freebies were sent over to Brave Wilderness (one of the biggest channels where each video gets tens of millions of views).



Speskingnof toys, any sightings for Series 2? Haven't gone looking in a while.

If anyone is looking for Series2, Amazon just added a bunch (for Prime members). The Ceratosaurus has a pre-order and just went up in the past few hours. Still need that Suchomimus tho :x

For those interested in this sort of thing, I put some solid time and research into making a definitive guide to Jurassic raptors:

List with "all " (it's of course a matter of debate as the films don't spell it all out) 49 Jurassic species:



So uh

Are the other Legacy line toys ever coming or...?
Closer to Fall, likely being held for Holiday push

FYI, Target opted NOT to carry the Spinosaurus in stores - they believe it's a niche item. Don't expect the "Legacy Collection" label to carry forward, it's been a hindrance. Legacy style items will likely be mixed into the main line in the future.

Laaaaame about Spino. It hasn't gone live yet right? Not until fall with the rest? It has reviews somehow.

Whaaaaat? "Niche"? C'mon... I walk in and see empty racks of sold stuff, but plenty of those legacy 6 packs (prob the price tag for them). Spino not even on the site right now -_- I wonder what was so problematic about the Legacy set?

Also, ate the "holiday plush" the ones shown at Toy Fair? Haven't seen any plush out yet, so I'm assuming.

Feels bad. For the first time, I have no care to watch a Jurassic movie and I don't get any warm feelings while attempting to start it or sample a scene from the middle of the film.

I bought it on vudu on release day and only managed to watch the brachy reveal scene which did nothing for me despite trying to be a breathtaking moment (granted, I saw it in the theater twice but that doesn't stop other scenes in other films in the series from still being awe-inspiring).

Can we expect the lego Jurassic World "movies' to be released in the holidays like last time? They announced two I always guessed it was one based on JP and one on Fallen Kingdom.

And I guess since the IDW comics didn't come out this year that project is dead.

I kinda wish Universal and Wayforward continued their relationship after The Mummy Demastered was the only good thing coming out of their "Dark Universe".

A Fallen Kingdom 2D-Metroidvania would have been a cool thing considering that it could be set in a huge old mansion with a dock, an undergound-lab and a surrounding forest, swarming with dinosaurs and security guards/mercernaries.

Too bad that won't happen.

So which version of Fallen Kingdom did everyone pickup? The Target exclusive looked pretty good, but I had to get the 3D copy. Kind of annoying, because sometime in the future, I'll want the 4K version :/

I bought the fuck it I'll get it in the bargain bin eventually set

(but I recommend the Target set, which comes with a great art book and 30 minutes of extra bonus material)

I didn't get to see Fallen Kingdom in theaters. First time I missed watching one of the Jurassic films in theaters. Not sure yet if I want to spend the money to buy it yet, considering the response...but I'm also really curious and do want to watch it. Heh.

Only in Europe so far, and its starting to look like thats the only place is going to be released... something to do with issues with Target.

That's really weird and also sucks :/ I know it was previously mentioned that Legacy didn't sell well in NA or something, but weird to pull a single figure from the country :/

I decided to take a stab at redesigning the Jurassic World Allosaurus more accurately. As the film states those we saw were juveniles it gives some leeway.

The gif shows the original film design I worked from, and how I mostly adhered to Scott Hartman's reconstruction. It's not perfect, but I wanted to do the Allosaurus in a way that felt more real yet classic Jurassic Park.

Thoughts?

Makes sense. Guessing they'll just add them to the crate of existing characters, replacing duplicates?
Yeah, they're just assortment refreshes, so they're safe.

Any word on another novel like the evolution of Claire? I'm guessing it would've been announced by now... Maybe they should've stuck with a different character and it would've had more appeal. A shame but at least we got this one. Claire went from being a character I hated to one I like.

Also Did Jurassic World (1) have a non-special edition junior novelization?

Interviewed Tess, and she said she has a sequel planned if it gets greenlit.

Neat. Looks more realistic.
It looks better for it to be more rounded out anyway. People love to depict dinosaurs as if their skin is wrapped around their bones like tight rubber. I'm sure you've already seen "If animals were drawn like dinosaurs." Smoothing out those angles helps.

I totally missed seeing these the other day, but I am definitely going to preorder the standing and attacking raptors. Been looking for a while for more affordable, and very detailed raptors. Was close to buying the raptors attacking the t-rex statue from Universal years back, and glad I didn't after hearing how bad the paint job was :/

After months of waiting patiently I finally got the Spinosaurus. Got two of them through the target app last week, so retail price for each.

ICYMI in the other thread:



The TLDR is no dinosaurs invading cities, feathers are probably happening with new species from new companies, more connection to Jurassic Park, and the greater expanded universe will be growing, providing more content for fans who want more than a film every three years.

Dunno how I missed this. Sounds good.
I know you didn't like the more "resident evil" parts of the Fallen Kingdom like the auctioning and human cloning. But it definitely did its job in setting up the ground work for that expanded universe stuff I think.

Still wish we'd see a film like the opening of FK though.

That actually sounds horrible, I don't want content for more movies every 3 years ugh. Greater connections to Jurassic Park have been touted for both the original JW and FK so I don't believe it.

So I recently read Jurassic Park: Redemption on Comixology (all 5 issues were free). Wow... story-wise there was some interedting ideas with Tim and Lex grown up with their own companies, but the art? Covers were good, but I could NOT stand the art style in the comic. The dinosaurs looked really bad too, to the point where I didn't even know what I was looking at >_>

Anyone else read this? Thoughts?
