Bryce Dallas Howard Shows Off Fallen Kingdom Toys on the Today Show

Bryce Dallas Howard stopped by Kathie Lee and Hoda on the Today Show this morning and she gave us a first look at some of the new toys for Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. It was also the very first time Bryce got to see the Claire Barbie Doll from Mattel in person.

Another new toy that was shown off was the Pterano Drone, which in our opinion will be very popular among the new line of toys. Check out the full Today Show interview with Bryce in the video below.

Chronicle Collectibles Debut Sick Triceratops for Jurassic Park’s 25th!

Now that I see her she’s the most beautiful thing I ever saw…

Chronicle Collectibles are fulfilling Dr. Alan Grant’s collectible wishes this year, with the announcement of their first Jurassic Park 25th Anniversary item – the Sick Triceratops.

io9 first reported the announcement of this 1:35 scale model, which measures 13″ long, 11″ wide and 4″ tall. Check out the piece below!

The model will set you back $449 but as with every release from Chronicle, there are multiple payment plans available to ensure you can obtain one of these limited edition pieces.

The pre-orders began today for the item – while there is currently not an official number count, these pieces are limited edition and will likely sell out relatively quick, so hit up the official page here with more photos, information and details on how to pre-order!

For many Jurassic Park fans, the reveal of the Sick Triceratops remains one of the most iconic scenes in the entire film. The wonder and amazement in the eyes of Dr. Grant and Ellie as they gaze upon this ailing dinosaur are shared by us as the audience. The scene is fully convincing in making us believe dinosaurs roam the earth again; it’s one of the clearest examples of why cinema has such a powerful impact on us.

Now, fans can own a piece of that movie magic. Chronicle Collectibles presents to you the 1:35 scale Jurassic Park: Sick Triceratops Diorama, the first and only licensed high-end collectible for this beloved dinosaur.

To ensure we had the finest details correct, we brought in legendary dinosaur painter Steve Riojas to paint the masters to perfection. You will never a find a better licensed Sick Triceratops ever offered; we have poured our heart and soul into this piece to make it something fans will be proud to own and display.

Alongside this, Chronicle have announced a wealth of new items including a 1:1 scale The Lost World: Jurassic Park Velociraptor head bust molded and cast directly from a Stan Winston Studios original Velociraptor – meaning this is a screen accurate piece!

Last year the company released the same model with a Jurassic Park ‘Isla Nublar’ skin which quickly sold out. The piece weighs 72 pounds and measures in at 30″ tall – so this will dominate any room you showcase it in!

Fans of The Lost World can also revel in this model of InGen’s Pachycephalosaurus. For only $399 you can own this highly detailed cast of the defensive herbivore, molded directly from Stan Winston Studios’ maquettes, originally created for the Jurassic Park sequel.

This item is limited to only 150 pieces so if you are a true The Lost World fan (if you’re not, please close your web browser and re-evaluate your stance) this might be worth your pennies.

And of course, if you caught our article last week, the last (but certainly not least) of Chronicle’s latest Jurassic products is the bronze Tyrannosaurus Rex!

Adapted from their previous Breakout piece, this features a brand new streamlined base, putting the focus on the dinosaur with its bronze finish. Measuring in at 24″ long, 9″ wide and 10″ tall, and set on a 9″ diameter base, this piece is a must have!

Chronicle Collectibles have continued to knock it out of the park with their officially licensed Jurassic Park products and I’m excited to see more as we progress through the year! What items would you like to see Chronicle next debut?

Let us know in the comments section below, and be sure to give Chronicle a follow on their social media channels for more information on their products and some behind the scenes looks at their design process!

Two Brand New Chronicle Collectibles Jurassic Park Pieces Available for Pre-Order!

Chronicle Collectibles have announced two great new additions to their ever growing Jurassic Park lineup today, and they are already available for pre-order!

First up is the Jurassic Park 25th Anniversary faux Bronze Tyrannosaurus Rex statue. Adapted from their previous T. rex breakout set, it features a brand new streamlined base, putting the focus on the dinosaur with its bronze finish. Measuring in at 24″ long, 9″ wide and 10″ tall, and set on a 9″ diameter base, this piece is a must have!

“Has it really been 25 years since Jurassic Park wove its way into the hearts and minds of generations of movie-goers? In 1993, Universal Studios, together with Steven Spielberg and Stan Winston Studios, changed movie history forever with Jurassic Park. The mixture of fully engineered forty-foot dinosaur puppets with live-action actors and new computer-generated imagery allows Jurassic Park to stand tall over the test of time. Chronicle Collectibles is passionate about celebrating these films that have shaped the industry for the past several decades.

To commemorate 25 years of movie growth and inspiration, Chronicle Collectibles is proud to bring a beautiful limited edition faux bronze Tyrannosaurus Rex into your home. Modeled after the design of the Stan Winston Bronzes, this elegant polyresin statue is the roaring T. rex pose on a smooth black base. These will be hand-numbered and only available for a limited time.”

Edition Size: TBD
Price: $349.00

The next dinosaur is a fan favorite herbivore from The Lost World, the Pachycephalosaurus! This ‘ram headed’ dino is cast directly off of the original Stan Winston Studio maquette, and is painted to match every detail. The Pachy statue is no small piece: it measures 31″ long, 19″ tall and 7″ wide with a base that is 13″ wide, 9″ deep and 2″ tall.

“We are proud to announce that for the first-time ever you can bring home “Pachy” to round out
your growing collection of Chronicle Collectibles Jurassic Park pieces. The Pachycephalosaurus
continues our line of cinema-quality statues molded directly from the maquettes originally
created by Stan Winston Studios.

Whether you have all of our Jurassic Park offerings or this is your first, the Pachycephalosaurus
will make a unique conversation piece to display in your home or office. Made to exacting detail,
the Pachycephalosaurus is roughly the same size and weight as our The Lost World: Jurassic
Park Stegosaurus. This statue is set on an circular base designed to resemble a dirt and rock-
strewn surface.”

Edition Size: 150
Price: $399.00

Both new statues are available with 10 month payment plans, meaning you can purchase the Pachy with installments of $39.90 a month, and the Rex as low as $34.90 – Chronicle Collectibles have been leading the industry with their incremental payment options, making it easier for collectors like myself to afford the pieces.

If these pieces are up your alley, be sure to pre-order now, as they’re limited edition and will likely sell out fast!

If you haven’t already, be sure to check out our review for the sold out Breakout Tyrannosaurus Rex from Chronicle, which is a beautiful piece, and hands down the most accurately sculpted Tyrannosaur based upon the first film. Also check out our gallery of images for these new pieces below, including a look at in hand images the sold out full size female Jurassic Park Velociraptor for another example of Chronicles quality!

If you’re already interested, you can pre-order the Bronze Tyrannosaur here, and Pachycephalosaurus here!

First Official Look at LEGO Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom Sets; Animated Videos Announced!

Hold on to your bricks!

Fresh from Nuremberg Toy Fair in Germany, LEGO and Universal Pictures have unveiled the official first look at the LEGO Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom toy line. While this is just a sneak peek at what’s to come, with the whole line being unveiled at New York Toy Fair, they shared numerous pictures and details – including announcing new animated LEGO content in the vein of The Indominus Escape is inbound!

NUREMBERG, Germany, Jan. 30, 2018 /PRNewswire/ — Universal Brand Development (Universal) and the LEGO Group announced today the launch of their largest Jurassic World partnership to date, offering an expanded line of construction sets, all-new animated content, and, for the first time ever, a lifestyle collection. In anticipation of the upcoming global theatrical release of Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom in June, Universal is building upon the success of LEGO Jurassic World, with the debut of construction sets that span every LEGO age category, as well as two all-new, animated videos, and a collection of soft lines and publishing to reach audiences beyond the toy aisle.

“Fans embraced LEGO Jurassic World with our initial product launch, and we couldn’t wait to come back and give them more of what they love with new ways to play and new opportunities to interact with the brand,” said Vince Klaseus, President of Universal Brand Development. “The expansion of our partnership reflects Universal’s objective to create lifestyle programs and engaging fan experiences that reach every age category, 365 days-a-year.”

Little is known about the animated videos beyond that in the press release above, however it is fully expected to be based upon the latest Jurassic film, Fallen Kingdom. Whether or not they will be released for free online, sold as a DVD/Blu-ray set, or distributed in a different fashion remains to be seen – we suspect these may be shorter and online only, with something longer yet to be announced.

The official Fallen Kingdom sets shown off are as follows!

LEGO Jurassic World Blue’s Helicopter Pursuit

($39.99)

Builders can unite Owen with his lead Velociraptor in this set designed for fans, ages seven and up. The set includes a quadbike, helicopter, featuring rotating blades and dual searchlights. The set also includes three minifigures: Owen Grady (Chris Pratt), Ken Wheatley (Ted Levine) and a pilot, plus Blue, the Velociraptor.

LEGO Junior Jurassic World T. rex Breakout

($49.99)

Children as young as four can play along and build a posable T. rex, opening gate and a truck with Quick Start chassis. This LEGO Juniors set includes easier building instructions and quick start elements as well as three minifigures and a baby dinosaur figure. Minifig characters include Claire (as played by Bryce Dallas Howard)

DUPLO Junior Jurassic World T. rex Tower

($29.99)

This new LEGO DUPLO set is suitable for builders, ages two and older. This easy-to-build dinosaur features large building bricks and is great for creating endless role-play stories! Toddlers and their parents can build this set together, which features a T. rex with opening jaw, revolving lookout tower, car and an Owen LEGO® DUPLO® figure.

Followers of Jurassic Outpost who think they know all there is to know about the upcoming LEGO lineup need to think again – not only are the the previously listed sets coming, but there are exclusives that we have yet to hear details on! It seems likely with the April street date the retailers will show off their exclusives alongside the rest of the line, so be sure to keep your eye on our website!

In support of the theatrical launch of Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, Universal and the LEGO Group will globally launch 13 constructions sets that span across the various LEGO® play categories: LEGO Systems (ages 6+), LEGO Juniors (ages 4-7) and LEGO DUPLO (ages 2-4), plus a collectability offering with LEGO BrickHeadz, available this spring only at Walmart. The sets will hit shelves in April, with retailer exclusives at both Toys “R” Us and Walmart. Additionally, fans will find new soft line and publishing offerings available later this year.

On a final note, in a very surprising move, LEGO have seemingly teased the first official look at the films mysterious new ‘villain dinosaur’ (suspected to be called the Indoraptor) on the back of the boxart. As the dinosaur on the bottom left (75930) is clearly not the previously showcased Allosaurus or Baryonyx, nor is it a known Jurassic species, it certainly makes sense – plus it just doesn’t look like any known real dinosaur otherwise!

Check out the chart above, which suggests building your own hybrid, and also teases the Carnotaurus and Stygimoloch!

Stay tuned – New York Toy Fair is just two weeks away, and the Super Bowl bringing new Fallen Kingdom footage is even sooner! As always, sound off in the comments below and let us know what you think of the LEGO lineup!

Survive Isla Nublar in ‘Jurassic Park: Danger!’ a New Board Game Coming May 2018!

As the celebration of Jurassic Park’s 25th anniversary stomps onward, and the release of Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom crawls ever nearer, the merchandise news continues to break out!

In the latest dino-filled update unearthed, we’re met with a welcome surprise: a new board game based on the original Jurassic Park film. Welcome to ‘Jurassic Park: Danger!‘, a 2-5 player adventure survival game. Thanks to Board Game Geek, we have the first images and information:

Designed by Forrest-Pruzan Creative, who have released games such as ‘Harry Potter Hogwarts Battle’ and ‘Cranium Cariboo’, and published by Ravensburger, ‘Jurassic Park: Danger!’ is slated to release May of this year. Recommended for ages 10 and up, with an average playtime of 50 minutes onward, the games official description is as follows:

The first visitors have arrived at Jurassic Park to see its miraculous dinosaurs firsthand, but chaos has hit Isla Nublar: The power is out, and the prehistoric creatures are on the hunt!

In Jurassic Park: Danger! Adventure Strategy Game, one player controls the T. Rex, Dilophosaurus, and Velociraptor, prowling through the jungle to attack the humans. The other players team up as characters from the classic movie, struggling to get Jurassic Park back online and escape the island before they fall prey to old-time predators!

Beyond the description available, little is known about how the game will play, but the concept of pitting players playing as the Jurassic Park guests vs the escaped dinosaurs is recipe for exciting fun. Intriguingly, Mondo have also announced a game based on Jurassic Park called ‘The Chaos Gene‘ with a similar sounding play style releasing this year.

How the games differ remains to be seen, but one thing is for certain: we’re in for a wild year of Jurassic jubilee – I cannot remember the last time two original Jurassic games released anywhere near one another.

2018 is shaping up to be an amazing time to be a Jurassic fan! I know I cannot wait to get my hands on this game and try it out with friends, or even fellow Jurassic community members. Not only does the game sound fantastic, the artwork is phenomenal, and is sure to attract collectors with that element alone.

Factory Entertainment Announce New Jurassic Park Products Ahead of New York Toy Fair!

In the ever ramping-up recent trend of Jurassic World toy and merchandise reveals, Factory Entertainment has thrown their hat in the ring. While they’re no newcomer to Jurassic, their latest reveals break into new territory.

Yesterday, Factory Entertainment took to social media to announce REVOs (“revolutionary vinyls”) ahead of New York Toy Fair, a line of vinyl figures based on popular film properties such as IT, The Wizard of Oz, Justice League, and of course, Jurassic Park. While yesterday’s reveal was just a tease at what’s to come, we have the exclusive first look at Jurassic Park REVOs mockups!

Sneak peek at WIP rendered mockups – subject to change

About the toys (via Action Figure Insider):

“Unlike any other popular vinyl figures, REVOs™ incorporate Factory Entertainment’s special “spin”– MOVEMENT. The secret—a proprietary, self-righting mechanism built into the base of every REVO™, which allows the figure to revolve, rock and wobble. Movingly charming, you can face your favorite characters off against each other in head to head REVO™ battles and/or build a pop-culture army that’s always on the move. You can spin’em, rock‘em, knock’em and revolve‘em , but you literally can’t put them down!”

REVOs stand about 4 inches tall, with an SRP of $11.99, and are expected to be available the third quarter of 2018. While the sneak peek above gives an awesome first look at the Jurassic portion of the lineup, you’ll have to wait until New York Toy Fair for actual product images, where the first prototypes are expected to debut.

Factory Entertainment additionally provided us with a first look at their prototype Jurassic Park Raptor Claw Bottle Opener, also expected to debut at New York Toy Fair. This particular collectible targets older fans, and would be right up Alan Grants alley – I know it’s something I also plan to pick up!

Finally, the Factory Entertainment Jurassic Park Gates set is expected to be shown off at NYTF, which was previously announced during San Diego Comic Con 2017. The model shown off above is an earlier prototype, and will likely see small revisions in its Toy Fair unveil (where pricing and availability should also become known).

Factory Entertainment has numerous Jurassic collectibles available now, and you can shop their lineup at Entertainment Earth here, as well as check out what Amazon has to offer here!

Sound off in the comments below, and let us know what you think of the Factory Entertainment REVOs and more! As always stay tuned for the latest news – a new Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom trailer is expected to debut during the Super Bowl (February 4th), and Toy Fair is soon after.

New Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom Merchandise Revealed at London Toy Fair!

Today officially marks the start of London Toy Fair at the Olympia London, and while it’s a bit early for major new reveals, some Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom products were put on display.

Thanks to Thomas Fishenden of Jurassic Park Podcast, pictures and details of the publicly revealed items are available! While most are placeholder images, it’s still exciting to see and hear about some of the new products hitting shelves this April – even if the majority remain tightly locked behind closed paddock doors.

Fallen Kingdom Merchandise Key Art Mural

The largest Jurassic product display came from Clementoni – a company that specializes in puzzles and STEM (Science, Technology, Education and Math) toys. Their product range varied from paleontology kits, to complex puzzles. The former consisted of Velociraptor (£14.99) , Tyrannosaurus Rex (£24.99), and a 3-in-1 (Rex, Ticeratops, and Pteranodon – £29.99) excavation kits – allowing kids to both unearth the faux dino fossils, and assemble them for display.

While the box art utilizes placeholder art to avoid spoilers, it’s still exciting to get a general sense of the product style.

Images courtesy of Jurassic Park Podcast

The three puzzle sets Clementoni had on display (£14.99 each) were an ‘impossible’ puzzle, a panorama, and general 104-piece set. They’re pictured below, and again are using placeholder images for rough mock-ups.

Other Jurassic plush products were on display at Posh Paws, but images were not allowed. The range consisted of cute plushie dinosaurs that were stylized in a similar style to those sold for the first Jurassic World. Finally, Funko had a booth at toy fair, and while they did not have Jurassic items on display, they shared that more products and exclusives for the Jurassic Park and World Pop lines were on their way!

In case you need a refresher, check out the recently revealed Jurassic Park Funko Pops – they’re also listed below with pre-order links!

It’s an exciting time to be a Jurassic fan and collector, and with New York Toy Fair right around the corner, it seems safe to assume even more reveals are coming soon.

As always, stay tuned for more on everything Jurassic Park and Jurassic World, and sound off in the comments below to tell us what you want to see from the upcoming merchandise!

Official Images of the Jurassic Park Funko Pop Line Have Arrived! (Updated with exclusives)

At long last, official images of the Funko Pop Jurassic Park line have arrived!

Just days ago, we had a sneak peak at the product range via conceptual artwork that was released, and now final products have been revealed! This marks the first toy range released for the first Jurassic Film since the Kenner toys in 1993, and arrives just in time for the 25th Anniversary celebration, which the box art showcases.

Take a look at the images first spotted by Funko Pop Hunters, and read on for the update from Funko!

The lineup is everything I wanted from Funko (minus Ellie not getting a stand-alone figure… and not even being mentioned by name on her packaging), and I am incredibly excited to pick up the set. This will be my first foray into Funko collecting, but assuming Funko aspires to live by the words of John Hammond, and continues to spare no expense, it will not be my last.

Also, great news for the Jurassic super fans – the concept art omitted the Velociraptors sickle claw, but the final toy rectified this error! The only change needed for absolute accuracy would be the Jeeps number, which should be #10 – the open top vehicle with the tool box in the back.

 

Shortly after we initially ran this article, Funko released a blog post featuring more information about the line – one highlight being shirtless Malcolm (above). Check out the image below of the entire exclusive and chase lineup!

The full list is as follows, with links to pre-orders:

The Jurassic Park Funko Pops release this February, so keep your eyes open! More Pops are certainly on the way, as a Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom line is expected – and perhaps a wave 2 for Jurassic Park, featuring Robert Muldoon, Donald Gennaro, Ray Arnold, Tim, and Lex.

As always, stay tuned for the latest news, and let us know what you think of the Funko Pops in the comments below!
