LEGO enthusiasts and Jurassic World fans, get ready for the ultimate display piece! LEGO has just unveiled its largest Jurassic World set to date: a stunning T-rex skeleton that spans over three feet in length. This impressive set not only captures the awe-inspiring scale of the dinosaur but also includes minifigures of Dr. Ellie Sattler and Dr. Alan Grant, key characters from the iconic Jurassic Park film, where the skeleton is famously displayed in the visitor center. Priced at $249.99, this set will be available starting March 12 for LEGO Insiders (sign up for free here) and March 15 for the general public at the LEGO Store.
LEGO Jurassic World Dinosaur Fossils: Tyrannosaurus Rex
**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 adult collectors aged 18 and above, focusing on display rather than play. It may incorporate more advanced building techniques, challenging yet rewarding for seasoned builders. While pictures might not fully convey its grandeur, the inclusion of Dr. Grant and Dr. Sattler minifigures helps to illustrate its scale. The T-rex skeleton's skull bears a striking resemblance to the existing LEGO T-rex skull set, which has been well-received (my son built it and it's a fantastic piece!). However, the complete skeleton in this new set adds significantly to its impact and allure.

The T-rex skeleton features articulated joints, allowing for a range of dynamic poses. You can adjust the head, open the jaw, and position the arms and tail in various ways. True to LEGO's style, this set includes several hidden Easter eggs that enhance the building experience. Additionally, it comes with a display stand and an informational plaque detailing the T-rex's diet, habitat, and other fascinating facts.

While LEGO's Jurassic World series might not be as expansive as its Star Wars or Harry Potter collections, it's rapidly expanding. As an enthusiast, I'm excited to see more adult-oriented sets like this T-rex skeleton added to the lineup in the future.
