LEGO enthusiasts and Jurassic Park fans, get ready for an epic addition to your collection! LEGO has just unveiled its largest Jurassic World set to date: a colossal T-rex skeleton that stretches over three feet in length. This impressive set brings to life the iconic T-rex skeleton featured in the visitor center of the original Jurassic Park movie. It includes minifigures of beloved characters Dr. Ellie Sattler and Dr. Alan Grant, adding a nostalgic touch to this remarkable build. Priced at $249.99, this set will be available for purchase at the LEGO Store starting March 12 for LEGO Insiders (sign up for free here) and March 15 for the general public.

Release Date: March 15 (March 12 for Insiders)
Price: $249.99
Pieces: 3,145
Ages: 18+
Dimensions: L: 105cm (41.3in) / H: 33cm (12.9in)

This set, comprising 3,145 pieces, is tailored for the 18+ age group, making it an ideal display piece rather than a play set. It may incorporate advanced building techniques, which could pose a challenge for younger builders. While images can't fully convey the set's scale, the inclusion of Dr. Grant and Dr. Sattler minifigures provides a sense of its impressive size. The skeleton's skull is reminiscent of the currently available LEGO T-rex skull set, which has been praised for its detail. However, the full skeleton in this new set enhances the overall impact significantly.

The T-rex skeleton features articulated joints, allowing for various posing options. You can move the head, open the jaw, and adjust the arms and tail to your liking. As with many LEGO sets inspired by movies, this one is packed with hidden Easter eggs that you'll enjoy discovering as you build. Additionally, the set includes a display stand and an informative plaque detailing the T-rex's diet, habitat, and other fascinating facts.

While the LEGO Jurassic World collection may not be as extensive as LEGO Star Wars or LEGO Harry Potter, it's rapidly expanding. As a fan, I'm excited to see more adult-oriented sets like this T-rex skeleton become part of the lineup in the future.
