First Look: New 2021 LEGO Jurassic World Camp Cretaceous sets
LEGO Dinosaur fans are in for more prehistoric goodness as LEGO.com has given us the first look at five all-new 2021 Jurassic World sets that will be released on 1 September 2021!
The sets are based on the Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous animated series which streams on Netflix, and introduces some new re-colours of existing dinosaurs.
There are four new dinosaurs included – a Baryonyx, Carnotaurus, and Stygimoloch, and a cool new T.rex fossil/skeleton – there are no new species introduced (sorry Mosasaurus or Stegosaurus fans!) as these are all re-colours of existing LEGO dinosaur species.
The new dinosaurs can be found in the following sets
- Baryonyx: 76942 Baryonyx Dinosaur Boat Escape [Buy from Amazon]
- Carnotaurus: 76941 Carnotaurus Dinosaur Chase [Buy from Amazon]
- Stygimoloch: 76939 Stygimoloch Dinosaur Escape [Buy from Amazon]
- T.Rex Skeleton: 76940 T. rex Dinosaur Fossil Exhibition [Buy from Amazon]
There’s also a new Duplo set 10939 T. rex and Triceratops Dinosaur Breakout that is already available in Australia and the UK, with the USA getting it on 1 August 2021.
I think this selection is really neat, especially if you’re a fan of LEGO Jurassic World and LEGO dinosaurs like I am. I was pleasant surprised by the prices, which seem fairly accessible and not too predatory – which is not what you normally expect from the LEGO Jurassic World theme.
These sets seem targeted less at adults, and more to younger kids who are familiar with the Camp Cretaceous TV show.
My favourites from this wave would have to be the excellent 76940 T. rex Dinosaur Fossil Exhibition as well as the 76939 Stygimoloch Dinosaur Escape, which a 4+ kiddiefied Jurassic Park jeep.
