Description

A posable Triceratops takes centre stage

Triceratops Research is built around a posable version of the well-known three-horned dinosaur, with a moving head, legs and a detailed frill. Rather than a vehicle or building, the creature itself is the main model here, supported by smaller equipment pieces for the accompanying researcher minifigures. That fits the wider Jurassic World line, which regularly puts individual dinosaurs, not just vehicles, at the centre of a set. For fans who'd rather build animals than machines, it's a good example of how much movement can be packed into a creature-only build.

281 pieces, 110 different parts

281 pieces and 110 different parts add up to an unusually detailed model for its size: the high part variety produces the Triceratops's characteristic silhouette, with horn plates, textured skin and moveable joints, rather than a rigid block shape. With animal models especially, that level of detail is what separates a rough approximation from a figure that actually reads as alive. The join between head, frill and body in particular needs plenty of individual connector pieces, so the finished model moves smoothly rather than feeling loose or unstable.

Two researcher minifigures with gear

Two researcher minifigures come with the set, carrying equipment suited to observing or caring for the dinosaur. That means the build isn't limited to the Triceratops itself; you can also act out a small research scene where the figures interact with the animal, whether examining it or feeding it. The equipment also works independently of the dinosaur with other Jurassic World sets, adding practical value beyond the model on its own.

Colours and parts for other builds

The black, lime, tan and reddish brown colour scheme gives the model a natural, earthy look suited to a dinosaur in an open enclosure. The parts list on this page details all 110 elements individually, useful if you're after matching pieces for your own animal figures or jungle scenes, or want to see which specialist pieces make up the model's moving joints.
