Diving back into the world of Jurassic Park after all these years was an exhilarating experience, and the LEGO Jurassic World Brachiosaurus Discovery (76960) has made that journey even more captivating. This set is not just a toy but a tribute to one of the most iconic moments in the franchise the first encounter with the towering Brachiosaurus.
The dinosaur figure itself is a marvel, standing tall and majestic, almost breathing life into the prehistoric beast. Its posable limbs allow for various positions, adding to the play value and reenacting scenes from the movie. The attention to detail is impressive, right down to the textures on its skin.
Complementing the Brachiosaurus is a brick-built Jeep Wrangler car toy, which beautifully recreates the vehicle used by Dr. Grant and Dr. Sattler in the movie. The car houses all three included minifigures Alan Grant, Ellie Sattler, and John Hammond who are expertly designed to resemble their on-screen counterparts.
The set also includes a buildable tree with a viewing platform for the minifigures. It’s an intricate piece that adds a touch of realism to the scene. The detachable leaves can even be used to ‘feed’ the Brachiosaurus, which my kids found incredibly fun and immersive.
The set consists of 512 pieces, making it suitable for children aged 9 and up. It serves as a fantastic gift idea for any dinosaur-loving child who enjoys building and playing with LEGO sets. The LEGO Builder app provides an intuitive guide during the building process, allowing young builders to zoom in, rotate models, save their progress, and more.
Lastly, the Brachiosaurus measures over 9.5 inches high, 10.5 inches long, and 2 inches wide, fitting seamlessly with other LEGO Jurassic World sets for even more play possibilities. This set is a fantastic addition to any Jurassic Park or LEGO collection.
