About this deal

LEGO components satisfy stringent industry standards to ensure simple and secure connections and robust builds. The set provides some decent play value, with the minifigures and the fact that you can easily detach the T. Rex skeleton from its base to “re-animate” it, but at the same time, functions well as a display model.

The T. rex skeleton is posable so kids can play with it like a normal LEGO® dinosaur toy figure, and it comes with a stand to display it as a museum exhibit. The T. rex skeleton with base measures over 5 in. (13 cm) high, 11 in. (29 cm) long and 3.5 in. (9 cm) wide. Together with the other builds and minifigures, it’s great for everyday play. The T.Rex Skeleton does one thing right that the Ideas 21320 Dinosaur Fossils set doesn’t – the generous use of tan elements instead of white gives it a much more realistic, aged look that you’d typically expect from a dinosaur skeleton in a museum.

Minifigures

If you already own 21320 Dinosaur Fossils, this set also feels like a great companion to expand it! Dr. Wu's Lab: Baby Dinosaurs Breakout introduced an adorable infant Triceratops and another such dinosaur appears here. However, the original olive green and tan colour scheme has been replaced with sand blue and tan. I prefer the other colours, but appreciate the unique aesthetic on this occasion.

As the T. Rex Skull makes use of a regular T. Rex head, you can of course attach it to any other T. Rex body – in this case, the best match would be the Tan T-Rex from 2018’s 75933 T.Rex Transport.The LEGO 76940 T. rex Dinosaur Fossil Exhibition is one of the many sets of the LEGO Jurassic World theme. Features There are minifigures of 2 popular Jurassic World characters –Owen Grady and Darius (from Jurassic World Camp Cretaceous) – to inspire youngsters to role-play as paleontologists and dream up their own exciting stories. Easy-to-follow, illustrated instructions are included so young LEGO fans can build independently and with confidence.

This skeleton measures 29cm in length, while the standard LEGO Tyrannosaurus rex reaches 28cm long. Such consistency between the two dinosaurs is outstanding and one can definitely imagine this skeleton fitting inside the living T. rex, despite their subtle differences in scale. The relative proportions between them also match reasonably well, although their feet vary.LEGO® Jurassic World building sets allow kids (and adult fans) to recreate scenes from the animated series and movies, dream up unique stories or simply display the cool, collectible models. Two joints are also located on each leg, providing a satisfying range of motion. These colours appear inconsistent, although I consider this excusable behind the feet because real dinosaur skeletons require additional support and these commonly present contrasting colours. Despite its articulation, this model features an elegant base, correctly identifying the Tyrannosaurus rex as dwelling across North America between 68 and 66 million years ago.

And last but not least – here’s how the T. Rex SKeleton looks next to the other LEGO Tyrannosaurus Rexes – kudos to the designers for keeping the general dimension, and profile of the T. Rex consistent. LEGO Jurassic World building sets allow kids (and adult fans) to recreate scenes from the animated series and movies, dream up unique stories or simply display the cool, collectible models. This 198-piece set is ideal for a young LEGO fan who is looking for a more challenging building experience. It comes with illustrated, step-by-step instructions so they can build with confidence. As it’s meant to be displayed on its platform, you can easily remove it and the T. Rex skeleton functions pretty well as a standalone re-animated skeleton dinosaur, and the posable knees and hips give you plenty of options on how you want to pose it.Minifigures are the most redundant parts of LEGO Jurassic World sets, and I have literally lost count of how many Owen Grady minifigures I own, but the set does come with Darius, the protagonist of the series, and an adorable blue baby triceratops. The T. rex skeleton is posable so kids can play with it like a normal LEGO dinosaur toy figure, and it comes with a stand to display it as a museum exhibit. Discover building toys to delight all ages in the LEGO Jurassic World range, with molded, buildable dinosaur figures, minifigures, impressive buildings and cool vehicles for play and display. T. rex Dinosaur Fossil Exhibition represents an interesting departure from earlier LEGO Jurassic World sets. Despite comprising relatively simple construction techniques, this skeletal dinosaur includes great detail and the proportions correspond almost perfectly with the existing LEGO Tyrannosaurus rex. In fact, the basic structure complements minifigure skeletons, which are comparably simple. Coolness [3] – A really unique set that stands out against the more action-based Jurassic World theme
