The version we see in the LEGO Jurassic World game is incredible – giving us a perfect taste at what could potentially be in the future. Three of those have already been released within the various LEGO dinosaur licenses – leaving just the Stegosaurus awaiting a release. When we talk about commonly known dinosaurs there tend to be a solid four which always make the list Tyrannosaurus, Velociraptor, Triceratops and Stegosaurus. It would be great to see this dinosaur eventually get a physical release soon.
This dinosaur is synonymous with the Jurassic brand and has appeared in various pieces of LEGO media – including some of the LEGO Jurassic magazines which have popped up at newsagents and in supermarkets. Of note to me is the prevalence of its long and slender snout – something which I feel is more pronounced on this dinosaur then on similar species, like the Baryonyx. I appreciate the fact that the Spinosaurus has so many different attributes and dimensions to other two-legged carnivores of its size, providing a unique creature with an absolute ton of character. This dinosaur is a massively unique amphibian who would have lived in and around wetlands and swamps during its reign on Planet Earth. Whether you loved or hated Jurassic Park III, it is undeniable that one element which shines consistently throughout the film is the sail-backed theropod known as Spinosaurus. One of the most divisive films in the Jurassic franchise is Jurassic Park III – with some fans adoring the film, and others absolutely hating it.

There are some interesting similarities between the legs and their musculature on the Ankylosaurus when compared with the Triceratops – so I do wonder if LEGO would perhaps be able to reuse some parts here to make this dinosaur more cost-effective if it was ever introduced to the line. I am intrigued by the way this model is communicated within the game, chiefly because I am unsure if there would be any neck joint on the character or if it would remain static – something which seems much more likely. This is an incredibly unique herbivorous dinosaur – and is one which became popular with fans after it had a great sequence with the Indominus Rex in Jurassic World. One great example of this is the Ankylosaurus – which appears in both LEGO Dimensions and LEGO Jurassic World despite never receiving an actual physical release.

These dinosaurs span both herbivorous and carnivorous, and come from different eras within the Jurassic Park franchise, so I am excited to see what you all think! I absolutely love the dinosaur lines and am incredibly passionate about the different characters we’ve received – so it was fun getting to break them down! Today, we’re going to look at five dinosaurs which appear in LEGO Jurassic World the Game, and which could easily be released as characters in the future. In my last article, here on the Firestar Toys blog, I looked at my Top 5 LEGO Dinosaurs.
