Jurassic World: The Boardgame
Jurassic-themed board games are hot. Ravensburger released one in the United States a few months ago. Mondo Games is releasing one later this year. But these are all Jurassic Park themed. Up until now there was no Jurassic World board game that catered to both…
Jurassic World Action Attack Suchomimus
Mattel isn’t shying away from bringing some off-screen dinosaurs back to life. Suchomimus was not featured in any of the films or the books, but was briefly mentioned in Jurassic Park III by Billy Brennan when he was trying to identify the Spinosaurus. An image…
Mattel Jurassic World action figures
When Hasbro didn’t release no movie inspired action figures in their 2015 Jurassic World line, fans were disappointed. They tried to set things right when they released their Owen “Alpha” and Velociraptor “Blue” set, but that figure lacked character. Mattel Jurassic World action figures When…

Chaos Effect: Ian Malcolm
Only four human figures (or five if you include Omega T-Rex’s escape pod) were released in the Chaos Effect toy line. Ian Malcolm was one of them. This figure, just like the others, was based on a whole new sculpt. The soft, rounded edges and…
Jurassic Park backpacks
These two 1993 Jurassic Park backpacks are too cool for school. I remember very well when I bought these in 1994 or 1995 at the Belgian seaside in a small store by the beach. They sold all kinds of old stock items and quite a…
