Lego has gone big—literally—with its latest Jurassic Park release. The company’s newest licensed set, a 3,145-piece T-Rex skeleton, is the most ambitious Jurassic Park-themed build to date. Designed for adult collectors, this highly detailed display piece carries a price tag of $250. Lego Insiders members will get early access starting March 12, while the general public can purchase it on March 15.
A Three-Foot-Long Showpiece
This isn’t just another dinosaur toy. Standing as a three-foot-long replica of the iconic Tyrannosaurus rex skeleton from Jurassic Park, this build is all about detail and scale. It includes intricate bone structures, an articulated jaw, and a sturdy frame designed to stand the test of time on your display shelf. The set also features mini-figures of Dr. Alan Grant and Dr. Ellie Sattler, plus an information plaque packed with fun dinosaur facts.
Lego has clearly positioned this as a collector’s item rather than a playset. While there’s some articulation, this is a carefully engineered structure meant to be admired, not posed and played with.
A Collector’s Dream—But Not for Everyone
Lego has long balanced its lineup between display pieces and hands-on builds for younger fans. This T-Rex skeleton firmly falls into the former category. It’s a complex, time-consuming build aimed at enthusiasts who appreciate the process as much as the final result.
For those who prefer smaller-scale or interactive sets, there are plenty of other options. The Visitor Center: T-Rex Attack and the Baby Bumpy Ankylosaurus sets offer more accessible builds for fans who want a mix of nostalgia and playability. And if fossils are your thing, the newly released Triceratops Skull and T-Rex Skull sets provide a different take on prehistoric collectibles.

Some Sets Are Retiring—Grab Them Before They’re Gone
Lego regularly cycles out older sets, and some Jurassic Park-themed kits are nearing the end of their production runs. That means once they’re gone, they’re gone—at least at retail prices. Third-party resellers will still have them, but expect to pay a premium.
Here’s what’s on the way out:
- T-Rex Dinosaur Breakout Preschooler Set (140 pieces) – $50 (Retiring Soon)
- Brachiosaurus Discovery (512 pieces) – $95 (Retiring Soon)
- Blue & Beta Velociraptor Capture (181 pieces) – $35 (Retiring Soon)
- Giganotosaurus & Therizinosaurus Attack (810 pieces) – $182 (Already Retired)
- T-Rex & Atrociraptor Breakout (466 pieces) – $70 ($100) (Already Retired)
A Must-Have for Jurassic Park Fans
Lego’s latest T-Rex skeleton is a statement piece. It’s a challenging build, a stunning display model, and a love letter to Jurassic Park fans who have been waiting for something like this. Whether you’re a seasoned Lego collector or a dinosaur enthusiast, this is a set that demands attention.
With preorders kicking off March 12 for Lego Insiders and the general release on March 15, expect this one to sell fast—especially given how quickly some past Jurassic Park sets have disappeared from shelves.
