The new sets offer a diverse range of building experiences, from action-packed hunts to moments of awe and discovery. From the adorable Aquilops baby dinosaur to the fan-favorite Spinosaurus to the new Titanosaurus, each set is designed to encourage exploration with attention to details for an authentic and engaging building experience:
LEGO Jurassic World Rebirth Baby Dinosaur Dolores: Aquilops (76970) is a playset for ages 7+ that includes a brick-built baby Aquilops dinosaur figure and a buildable plant. The Baby Dolores model can move its head, arms, legs and tail, allowing a range of fun poses.

In 2015, the first Jurassic World film had its world premiere and new LEGO Jurassic World sets were announced. Continuing from 2018 onward, several LEGO Jurassic World & Jurassic Park sets based on the popular franchise have since been introduced.

In 2016, they released a double CD set of expanded and remastered soundtracks for the classic John Williams scores ‘Jurassic Park’ & ‘The Lost World: Jurassic Park,’ with both getting sperate releases (and even more material) in 2022 & 2023 respectively. This year, they have a new soundtrack release for the franchise’s third film, ‘Jurassic Park 3,’ composed by Don Davis! But what sets it apart from previous releases, and is it a definitive presentation of the score? Let’s take a walk in the park and find out!
\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https://controlroom.jurassicoutpost.com/app/uploads/2024/11/JP3OST.jpg\")
In 2001, the soundtrack was released on CD in the form of a 54-minute album via Decca records. Composer Don Davis (‘The Matrix Trilogy’) assembled this 1-CD release himself, combining some cues together to form certain tracks, and arranging it all in his own personal sequence. Unlike the John Williams scores for the prior films, this one is nearly wall-to-wall action (just like the film). While it runs through every scene, it also expertly weaves themes established by Williams in very fun and clever ways. Also included on the album was the 1999 Randy Newman song “Big Hat, No Cattle,” which puzzled fans since it is only briefly heard in the film during an early bar scene in the background. While this album featured a decent amount of the score (about 50 minutes of Davis’s material), it did leave off several noteworthy cues that were heard in the film. Some of these were favorites of those who had seen the film, such as the climactic showdown with the Spinosaurus, expecting to find them on the album but ending up disappointed.
\n\n\n\nInteresting to note is that this album was an “Enhanced CD.” If put into a computer’s CD or DVD ROM drive, it would open a program with access to special features, including: the film’s trailer, a dinosaur size chart, photos, website access, a text conversation with Don Davis, and a trailer for the unreleased PlayStation game ‘Jurassic Park: Survival.’ (It should be noted that the new 2024 soundtrack release does NOT include any of this content.) While this 2001 CD Album is now out of print, it can at least be bought for relatively cheap prices in the secondary market and is also easily available for digital purchase.
\n\n\n\nIt’s been theorized that because the album’s CD needed extra space for the enhanced content (along with the Randy Newman song), it forced Don Davis to make his arrangement of the cues shorter than perhaps he wanted. This explains why the score’s runtime on the album is about 20 minutes shorter than the albums were for ‘Jurassic Park’ & ‘The Lost World: Jurassic Park.’ In fact, it could have otherwise included even more additional music, given the format’s size limits of about 80 minutes.
\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https://controlroom.jurassicoutpost.com/app/uploads/2024/11/JP3PromoCD.jpg\")
Curiously, about a year after the album was released, an “Academy Promo” CD was sent out for Oscar consideration that found its way online (perhaps by Dennis Nedry?). This longer, unofficial version of the soundtrack contained several additional tracks not included on the commercial Decca release, including many extended film versions of existing tracks. (However, it did not include the Randy Newman song nor any of the “Enhanced CD” content.) Some of the additional highlights include music for when the raptor eggs are discovered in the jungle, the Spinosaurus chasing the group toward the aviary’s entrance, and the film’s entire climax tracks (albeit with a fuller mix and additional orchestrations). Since this wasn’t an official release that one could find in stores, these unique tracks were shared with many fans through internet piracy. Over the past two decades, this was unfortunately the only way for anyone to hear the extended version of the soundtrack apart from watching the film itself.
\n\n\n\nNow, La-La Land Records presents a brand-new 2024 expanded release. This edition includes both the original soundtrack album, the additional tracks from the Academy promo, & more!
\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https://controlroom.jurassicoutpost.com/app/uploads/2024/11/JP3LLLCover-1024x1024.jpg\")
\n\n\n\nLa-La Land Records, Universal Pictures, Amblin Entertainment, Universal Music Group and Decca Records present JURASSIC PARK III, a limited edition 2-CD remastered and expanded presentation of acclaimed composer Don Davis’ (THE MATRIX, THE MATRIX RELOADED, BOUND) original motion picture score to the blockbuster second sequel in the legendary JURASSIC PARK franchise, starring Sam Neill, William H. Macy and Tea Leoni, and directed by Joe Johnston. Expertly interpolating, and building on, maestro John Williams’ iconic JURASSIC themes, composer Davis propels the film’s excitement even further with his own powerhouse, original orchestral material. Expanded and sounding better than ever, JURASSIC PARK III shines brilliantly – it’s robust, thematic high-octane film scoring that finally gets to shine in full within this deluxe release. Produced by Mike Matessino and Neil S. Bulk, newly edited by Bulk and mixed and mastered by Matessino from the original 24 bit film mixes, this 2-CD presentation showcases the original 2001 soundtrack release remastered on Disc 1, with the expanded film score spread across both discs, concluding with additional tracks on Disc 2. The exclusive, in-depth liner notes are by John Takis, including new comments from the composer, while the sharp art design is by Jim Titus, continuing the eye-catching style he employed for our JURASSIC PARK and THE LOST WORLD re-issues. This is a limited edition of 3000 Units.
The presentation of this edition of the score is the opposite of how their 2022 ‘Jurassic Park’ release was done: the original album is on the first CD, followed by the first section of the expanded score, with the rest of it and some additional alternates on the second CD. The release was presented this way due to space limitations on the CD format and their own personal preferences. The original album was included due to unique edits & takes that several of the tracks had and, of course, the Randy Newman song. For those already familiar with the original album, or want to skip to the expanded presentation, you’ll want to begin with track 17 on CD 1.
\n\n\n\nRight away, we hear something new: the film version of ‘Isla Sorna Sailing Situation.’ The only real addition to this cue is a sustained note near the beginning (as the film’s title cards are appearing on screen, and the water ripples). Other film versions as heard on the Academy promo are present, such as ‘Bone Man Ben,’ ‘Raptor Repartee,’ and ‘Cooper’s Last Stand.’ But what will be exciting for fans of the score are a few other film versions heard for the first time, such as ‘Dinosaur Man,’ ‘The Dinosaur Fly-By,’ and most notably ‘The Raptor Room’ (which includes an alternate segment and a longer moment with the choir). Additional alternates include an alternate opening to ‘Clash Of Extinction’ (a cue not heard in the film in any form), an alternate ending for ‘Raptor In The Cabin,’ and an alternate ending for ‘River Reminiscence.’ A major highlight, presented in extended form, is ‘The Hat Returns / End Credits,’ which showcases the full version of the end credits for the first time (longer, and arranged differently, than what is heard in the film).
\n\n\nHowever, despite having all of the Academy promo tracks (making those bootlegs of it finally obsolete), and a few other film versions of cues; there are still several missing, without any explanation. Most notably not on this release are film versions (or, what could be vastly different ‘film mixes’ that remove some of the brass and other instruments from their original compositions) of ‘Frenzy Fuselage,’ ‘River Rampage,’ and ‘Paul Makes A Leap.’ What’s interesting is that some of these tracks do have supposed “extended” versions on this release, but when hearing them there are no discernable differences. Listening closely, there are only either very minor performance differences or a sustained note with a longer fadeout at the end. The cues ‘Party Crasher,’ ‘Brachiosaurs On The Bank,’ and ‘Pteranodon Habitat’ have different openings or endings entirely in the film as well, and are also not present here. ‘Pteranodon Habitat’ has a timpani-heavy ending in the film, and while it is not certain if this piece was even composed by Don Davis, it would have been nice to have gleamed some explanation. Unfortunately, the liner notes (while detailed on the film’s history and the making of the score) don’t give us any intel on this topic.
\n\n\n\nDo these omissions taint the release of this soundtrack? That may depend on how much you were hoping to have those versions of the tracks. Neither me nor Bernard A. Kyer (who provided some details mentioned in this review) were asked to participate in this release like we did for ‘Jurassic Park’ in 2022 and ‘The Lost World: Jurassic Park’ in 2023, so we can’t explain the absence of these film versions. There is a chance that the elements used in the film could not be found, or some strange rights issues, but without any information given we can only speculate. In my personal opinion, I do prefer the fuller orchestrated versions of these tracks that are included rather than what can be heard in the film.
\n\n\n\nOmissions aside, this is still the best release the ‘Jurassic Park 3’ soundtrack has ever had. The clever cover artwork that matches the prior two releases is fantastic, the sound quality is great, we finally have an official release of the Academy promo’s tracks, and it provides several film versions of cues people have wanted to hear outside of the film ever since it came out. With the original album also included at the beginning, there really is no need to own the previous release unless you want to hang onto the “Enhanced CD” content (if it even works on your computer anymore).

Complexly and Creative Beast Studios Launch BackerKit Campaign for Prehistoric Elephant Action Figures
\n\n\n\n- Produced by PBS Digital Studios and Complexly, PBS Eons takes viewers on a journey through the history of life on Earth, where they learn about extinct plants and animals
- To add a new dimension to the series’ learning environment, Eons and Complexly tapped Creative Beast Studios to design scientifically accurate action figures portraying stunning proboscideans including woolly mammoths
MISSOULA, MT and HACKENSACK, NJ – September 3, 2024
\n\n\n\nComplexly and Creative Beast Studio today launched a new line of prehistoric elephant action figures inspired by weekly YouTube series PBS Eons with a BackerKit campaign. Depicting extinct proboscideans (elephants and their close relatives), these scientifically accurate, hand painted, and fully articulated action figures give fans of the popular Eons series and those who love majestic megafauna the opportunity to hold a woolly mammoth in the palm of their hand. Fans can support the Backerkit campaign here.
\n\n\n\nTo create the new line of 1/18th scale prehistoric elephant action figures, Eons and Complexly partnered with veteran toy designer and Creative Beast Studios founder David Silva, who boasts more than 20 years of experience crafting figures for popular entertainment brands including Star Wars, Jurassic Park, Godzilla, Spiderman, G.I. Joe, Terminator 2, Aliens, Predator, Spawn, and Pacific Rim. He is a proven innovator in the toy industry, having also launched his own line of scientifically accurate dinosaur action figures, “Beasts of the Mesozoic,” which includes multiple species of raptors, tyrannosaurs, and ceratopsians. With the prehistoric elephant line of action figures, Silva is venturing out of the Mesozoic and into the Cenozoic.
\n\n\n\n“There is enthusiastic demand for high quality, realistic action figures of extinct fauna, and it’s an honor to work with PBS Eons and Complexly to create the first proboscidean action figure line of my career,” said Silva. “With these woolly mammoths, we’re transporting the engaging, educational content from Eons directly into the hands and hearts of viewers. Built using data from the latest scientific discoveries and painted with colors inspired by modern-day creatures living in similar environments, we know that fans will love this line of prehistoric proboscideans.”
\n\n\n\nProduced by PBS Digital Studios and Complexly, PBS Eons takes viewers on a journey through the history of life on Earth. From the dawn of life in the Archaean Eon through the Mesozoic Era — the so-called “Age of Dinosaurs” — right up to the end of the most recent Ice Age, hosts Kallie Moore, Michelle Barboza-Ramirez, Gabriel Santos, and Blake de Pastino act as tour guides to the past, demonstrating what existence was like for the animals and plants that came before us.
\n\n\n\n“Working with David has been a dream for our team, and we’re so excited to present these one-of-a-kind action figures to fans of the PBS Eons YouTube series,” said Seth Radley, Executive Producer for Eons at Complexly. “Eons brings the wonder of deep time into the homes of natural history fans of all ages. To maintain that high standard of scientific rigor, we turned to an expert who has no peers when it comes to sculpting spectacular prehistoric action figures. We know our fans will love David’s beautiful and charismatic proboscideans.”
\n\n\n\nThe initial $185,000 BackerKit goal includes two all-new woolly mammoth action figures. Stretch goals may be reached on the BackerKit crowdfunding platform after the initial goal is met, giving contributors the opportunity to unlock other extinct proboscideans, including Gomphotherium, Platybelodon, and Moeritherium.
\n\n\n\nThe BackerKit’s first wave of prehistoric elephant action figures includes:
\n\n\n\n- Woolly Mammoth: $200
- Woolly Mammoth & Baby Woolly Mammoth (”Snowy”) Bundle: $225
- Baby Woolly Mammoth: $35
