LEGO Dinosaurs; @PekekoaOfJungle’s only love. Starting with the Adventurers Dinos of yesteryear and building itself up to the extraordinarily detailed Jurassic World Figures, these group of sets have went from Blocky Beasts to our Media’s take on Dinosaurs.
We’ve had Five… Four… Four and a Ha-… Four and Three-Qu- Okay, let me explain. Our first Dinosaur "Theme " was the Adventurer’s Sub-Theme, Dino Island, in 2000. After that, in the Studios Theme, there were two Jurassic Park sets, or should I say “Jurassic Park sets”, that featured Johnny Thunder and Pippin from the Adventurers Theme. After that, we had a short lived theme called Dinosaurs, which had, well, Dinosaurs.
Just as a Recap, We are at a Theme and two Sub-Themes. Here’s where it gets confusing.
After that, in 2005, we received Dino Attack in the U.S. and Dino 2010 with a limited release in other countries. Here’s the issue with the themes; D.A. and D.'10 are the EXACT SAME THING. The only difference was that the American sets had weapons, while its Metric Counterpart had nets and cages.
Now we are at Two, Two and a half, or Three Themes and Two Sub-Themes… Maybe? Now it gets easier.
In 2012, the Dino Theme came to existence, the line that I’m guessing most of us TFOLs are familiar with. They basically were Hyper Cool Dinos. After that, we had a bunch of Recolors of the Dino Dinos in Jurassic World, which came out this year.
That makes the Count Four, Four and a half, or Five Themes and Two Sub-Themes… Maybe?
What are your thoughts on these Themes? What are your favorite Dinosaur Molds?
