I Hope you enjoy reading about this cool LEGO Dino set.

Any Lego dinosaur collection is hardly complete without this monstrous beast contained within this set. Two hero minifigures are required to tackle the Lego Triceratops and it is not enough to be armed with tranquilizers, heavy equipment is required in the form of a large trapper vehicle.

- Triceratops has great coloration and realistic details such as the beak-like jaws and three horns mounted in front of a shield-like collar.
- Lego Triceratops has studs on the back so that all types of devices can be built upon her or so that minifigures can ride upon the beast.
- The movable parts on this Lego dinosaur include the legs and head which can be set in position to charge.
- Triceratops is a realistic looking dinosaur that young Lego fans are going to be desperate to get hold of.
What's Not Cool
Neither the tail nor jaws of Lego Triceratops can be moved.
The Minifigures
What's Cool
These minifigures both look like cool guys who are able to deal with a menace as huge as a Triceratops.
Very detailed body printing makes these heroes seem well-equipped for the tasks in hand.
You get two minifigures not just one!
The tranquilizer guns and darts are really good and on this set they fit nicely into holders on the truck.
What's Not Cool
The hats shown in the picture fit okay but are a little loose.

This lakeside tower is equipped with bait and a net in order to entrap the rampant Pteranodon that terrorizes these parts. Great fun!
This is the ultimate in dinosaur Lego; a base equipped with all manner of dinosaur catching devices and three awesome Lego dinosaurs - Tyrannosaurus Rex, Raptor and Coelophysis.
A terrifying Raptor is on the loose waiting to devour passing innocents. Can the heroes tranquilize it and remove the terror or will they be gobbled up too?
