Despite the poor value of this set, I also like that you get this build for a lower price with Triceratops Research than T. So, if you’ve built that one, you know what to expect. However, the build process is almost identical to T. I also like that this is car 04, the crushed car from the aforementioned set. The cars from the two sets look great together. The car is not the greatest design for an SUV, but I do like that it is consistent with T. Overall, Triceratops research is another solid build from the JP30 line. A bush with berries next to the pile of poo would be more accurate. But Ellie does not find any in the poop, so including them there is not true to the story. In the film, Ellie suspects the triceratops gets sick because it is eating poisonous lilac berries. You remove a brick to reveal a space containing some berries. This buildable poo features a hollow core. However, the LEGO® Group did make a mistake. And we all know where Ellie Satler shoves her hands in the film. Set designers tried to make this kit very true to the movie. And we’re not talking about a crappy build here. While we’ve seen cupcake toppers used as poo before, I certainly have never built a standalone pile of sh*t before. The other build in the kit is a first for the LEGO® Group. The Lex and Tim Minifigures come from Jurassic Park: Velociraptor Chase (75932). Car 04 from Triceratops Research (76959) and Car 05 from T. Interestingly, I expect a design like this more from a playset like Triceratops Research rather than an 18+ kit like T. I’m thrilled to have this car, but I might mod it at some point in the future. The new car features a few brick substitutions, and the windshield wipers are gone. rex Breakout are very similar, but not identical. In terms of design, this new car 04 and the uncrushed car 05 from T. In that set, car 04 is the crushed vehicle. Interestingly, this is car 04, which ties in nicely to the T. The main build is one of the Jurassic Park Ford Explorers. Averaging this with the cost/brick score gives an overall value rating of 52%. I certainly did not get much build time from this set. Comparatively, my average for the Jurassic World theme is $1.06/minute, while LEGO® sets in general sit at $0.85/minute. Consequently, at full price the cost/minute of build time is $1.59. I spent 41 minutes assembling Triceratops Research. There is a cost to making fan-favorite sets based on well established brands. But no matter how you look at it, $0.23/brick is high. Keep in mind that licensing the Jurassic theme and the car (Ford Explorer), as well as making the large dinosaur parts was never going to be cheap. Comparatively, LEGO® sets in general go for about $0.14/brick. On average, Jurassic sets cost me $0.18/brick in the past. Those are some pricey bricks, even for the Jurassic World theme. Consequently, the cost/brick is about $0.23. Triceratops Research costs $64.99 in Canada and includes 281 pieces. Full Review of Triceratops Research VALUE: 52% The triceratops figurine comes in the paper bags. Triceratops Research (76959) box contents. The discerning eye can pick out a mistake in the scene compared to the source material □ The car design is a little boxy and too open. This is the same number vehicle as the squished car from T. The car looks like its predecessor from T.
