Fallen kingdom lego sets8/17/2023 The overgrown gyrosphere station is built from several shades of brown, with a variety of foliage pieces, including 15 of the new three-leaf pieces we first saw in Downtown Diner. While I do like any LEGO Unimog, the scale of the truck is huge - particularly for someone like me who loves the wonderfully scaled cars in the LEGO Speed Champions line. The truck is modular, with a bed with interior storage, which detaches from the chassis, and a hardtop cover with some great ridge details. In this case, the transparent 6×6 radar dishes attached on either side of the sphere are printed with cracks, and I thought immediately that they’d be perfect for a LEGO Bioshock diorama. The gyrosphere itself is essentially identical to the version in 75916 Dilophosaurus Ambush from the first Jurassic World back in 2015. Bags 4 & 5: Includes the parts for the gyrosphere station.ĭespite a fairly uninspiring build, the finished set is actually rather fun, with a truck that looks like a heavy-duty Mercedes Unimog (one of my favorite off-road vehicles), plus a playset section with lots of foliage.Bag 3: Includes Claire and the parts for the gyrosphere trailer.Bag 2: Includes Franklin and the parts for the back of the truck plus the gyrosphere.Bag 1: Includes Owen and the parts for the cab and chassis of the truck.We’ll focus this review on the finished model and the dinosaurs, but for a modicum of completeness here’s how the build plays out: The Jurassic World sets as a whole feel a lot like recolored LEGO City sets with some terrible lizards thrown in for fun, and the build process reflects this. Let’s be honest, we’re not here for the innovative building techniques. The sticker sheet includes a lot of yellow and black stripes, plus some unique Jurassic World designs, and is unlikely to be of enormous utility in other contexts. The instructions are also loose in the bag, and are split into two booklets. The sticker sheet is loose in the bag, though it’s small enough that it’s unlikely to get especially damaged. The parts for Carnotaurus Gyrosphere Escape rattle out of a standard LEGO box in five numbered bags, plus an unnumbered bag with a couple of larger pieces and the usual creature bag with the dinosaur. The set includes 577 pieces, three minifigs, a baby dinosaur, and the main attraction, Carnotaurus. Today, we’re taking a look at one of the sets with a brand new dinosaur, 75929 Carnotaurus Gyrosphere Escape. The full range of Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom LEGO sets were released earlier this week, and we’re continuing our reviews of these new, dinosaur-centric sets, following on from 75928 Pteranodon Chase and 75932 Jurassic Park Velociraptor Chase.
