![]() ![]() The Jurassic Park/LEGO logos and quote plaque are centered between the two vehicles. ![]() Tour Vehicle 5 is braced by the edge of the display area and these medium nougat 1×2 cheese wedges in front. While you can assemble the car wheels down, you’ll be displaying it belly-up.Īll that’s left to do now is put everything together! We start with Tour Vehicle 4, which slots nicely into the diorama’s base, held in place by the dark tan terrain. It is built in three sections – with the front and rear ends inverted and attached to the main cabin via clips. In the film, this car is savaged by the T-Rex, and the LEGO version has suffered a similar fate. The final assembly for this set is the remains of Tour Vehicle 4. (A fun detail is that the fence warning shows a minifigure hand grabbing the live wire.) More stickers are used for the park’s warning signs. The natural curve you get from gravity does a great job of mimicking the mangled set. The broken electric fence is built from multiple 22L ziplines in flat silver. The click hinges do allow for a bit of added depth to the illusion, at the cost of making the set’s footprint a bit larger when displaying. Is this a subtle jab at the collectors who have been clamoring for a re-release of the infamous LEGO goat? Somehow, I think it came up in at least one design meeting.įrom the rear, you can see that the foliage is really only meant to be front-facing. One detail easy to overlook in the completed build is the chain to hold the missing goat. Similar to the 21331 Sonic Green Hills Zone set, the backdrop relies a bit on elements that are attached with click hinges to support the vertical weight. ![]() The rear retaining wall goes together quickly. The new 1×1 quarter circle tile in transparent light blue really work well here. Inside the box are 11 numbered part bags spanning 9 building steps, an unnumbered bag containing a large baseplate and 22L ziplines, and a final bag containing the instruction manual and sticker sheet.Ī detail that is really only clearly visible at this stage are the T Rex’s rain filled footprints. On the bottom of the box, there’s a small blurb noting that this is a “Ford Official Licensed Product”, along with the Universal and studio logos. As usual there are a few inset shots along the bottom edge, showing the set’s dimensions (58.5cm/23″ by 15.5cm/6″), a movie still, and another close up shot of the diorama that does a fairly good job of matching the in-film picture. Since there really isn’t a backside to the diorama to showcase, the back of the box resorts to showing the front of the set from a slightly different angle. And, really, wouldn’t it make more sense to show a realistic age suggestion here so they could tap both demographic markets? I’ve heard from several parents that it’s frustrating that they have to guess if these sets are something they can share with their kids or not. Personally, I think the larger graphic design speaks more to the mature collector angle than the tiny 18+ does. This is just a ploy by marketing to make the set seem “adult oriented” I suppose. ![]() The age range is set to a mandated 18+, but as usual there’s nothing in the construction steps that a much younger builder couldn’t handle. The diorama is shown to good advantage here, with a bright yellow “greeble strip” along the bottom edge to catch the eye. This set comes in a large, tab-sealed box with Adult Collector style packaging. Unboxing the parts, instructions and sticker sheet Providing TBB with products for review guarantees neither coverage nor positive reviews. The LEGO Group provided The Brothers Brick with an early copy of this set for review. But, like other “Adults Welcome” sets, is it all show and no play? Read on as we see just what this set has to offer! This diorama features a rampaging brick-built T-Rex, classic Jurassic Park tour vehicles, and four exclusive minifigures. This 1212 piece set will be available April 17th from the LEGO Shop Online for US $99.99 | CAN $129.99 | UK £89.99. Rex Breakout harkens back to the movie that started it all. While most are tie-ins for Jurassic World Dominion, Jurassic Park 76956 T. With the next Jurassic World movie just around the corner, it’s no surprise that LEGO has decided to return to the popular franchise with a new wave of sets for Spring 2022. ![]()
