Sneak Peek: The Legacy Collection 3/34 inch Jeep 12, Dennis Nedry & Dilophosaurus
It is safe to say that the Legacy Collection really began to hit its stride again in 2020 – with the gorgeous Escape From Isla Nublar set providing fans with the dose of nostalgia they had been longing for since the line’s inception in 2018. It looks like Mattel aren’t done, however – as we have a sneak peek at an even more exciting new toy coming at some point in the future!
Today, we can reveal that JP Jeep 12 is coming as a Legacy Collection playset – complete with a 3/34 inch scale Dilophosaurus, and also a 3/34 inch scale Denis Nedry in his signature yellow rain jacket, complete with the stick he uses to try and fend off his attacker in the climatic moments of his life. This playset is the perfect recreation of the iconic final moments we see Nedry endure on screen, as is bound to be a massive hit with fans of the original Jurassic Park.
It is too early to speculate much on this initial photo (and apologies for the poor quality, we’re still working on securing high-quality assets). The Jeep appears to reuse some of either the Legacy Collection or Capture Net variant which existed before – although it is worth noting that the soft roof is present here, as are the lights. It also appears as though a spare tire is mounted to the rear of the jeep – making this more authentic than previous versions we have received. Lastly, we also appear to have opening doors here – a really cool addition for this variant of the jeep.
The Dilophosaurus looks to be the older sculpt and has some interesting paintwork – even if it doesn’t appear to be fully accurate to the one present in Jurassic Park. Nedry appears to reuse the head from the SDCC version, and also potentially reuses the legs from another figure, too. We will have to wait for final photos to ascertain the full makeup of this figure.
What do you think? Are you as excited for this set as we are? Let us know in the comments below, and stay tuned for more news here on Collect Jurassic as soon as we have it!
I would definitely get that when it comes out.
I was pretty disappointed that the Legacy Collection jeep was just missing the back tire, so I saw no need to pick it up. But now to see that this potential release will not only have that, but also the roof and lights…yeah I’ll admit it, I might get two. Please do the right thing Mattel and GIVE FANS WHAT THEY WANT. Plus I swear I am not a bot or a corporate shill. I’m just a fan who wants a quality product that’s worth my hard earned money.
dilo
Awesome now I’m hoping for the rv from the lost world.
crap
So i know its weird to ask o here but do any of you guys know when the new spino is being released?
I wonder if Mattel will decide to design the Ford Explorers Tour Vehicles with some human figure accessories for the story telling.
Hopefully someday.
I’d love the Explorer with Tim and Lex!
s0000 cool
I love the stick stupid
I strongly hope that Mattel makes, for the Legacy Collection line-up, a Corythosaurus, which appeared in Jurassic Park III. That way, fans of the original Jurassic Park trilogy will be able to get a dinosaur character that did appear in the films, but wasn’t made into a figure. Sadly, Mamenchisaurus, the long-neck from “The Lost World”, is too big to be made into a figure.
No bigger than the brachiosaurus and the made 5hat. Never say never!
Literally the only thing I can say to this is- about damn time!
Love it!
Yeah, we get another Jeep Wrangler with working doors, Dennis Nedry and and the spitting dinosaur. I’m so getting that item. I love the storytelling JP Toys.
Great !!!
