![]() But, you also get the Indominus rex, which is really nice. ![]() This is a little low and would earn the set 3/5 by itself. With 1156 bricks and 4 Minifigures, you are getting one Minifig for every 289 bricks. I’m not crazy about Gyrosphere being attached to the compound, but it works so nicely that I don’t feel the set should lose marks for it. I like this set, but I will take off marks for the weapons locker and the small size. Again, this is something that could have been addressed if the helicopter and landing pad had been left out. This compound would have been better suited for the Velociraptors. The compound itself is a little small for the Indominus rex, in fact the dinosaur barely fits in the pen. My overall feelings about the compound are that it is a fun build with nice play features. LEGO Indominus rex Breakout weapons storage area. Instead of the helicopter, more work could have been done in this area. Having a weapons locker on the outside wall with no lock-up doesn’t make sense. This is one area where I feel like there could have been more work. There is a tranquilizer gun and an electric prod. Rounding the last corner back to the front gate brings you to a storage area for weapons. The LEGO Indominus rex Breakout has a collapsible wall allowing dinosaurs to escape. There is not much else to this side of the compound, but it doesn’t look bad at all. This is a play feature that allows the Indominus rex to break through the wall. The final wall is built so that it can break apart easily. LEGO Indominus rex Breakout observation area I feel like those bricks could have been better used increasing the amount of detail in other areas of the set. There is already a separate helicopter set in the Jurassic World theme, and the Indominus compound did not have a landing pad in the movie. I could have done without the helicopter and the helicopter landing pad. The back of the compound has another observation deck on the ground floor, and a control centre on the top. LEGO Indominus rex Breakout observation area. Drumsticks don’t really seem like they would be enough to feed an Indominus rex. I wish they had provided a LEGO cow to lower into the pen instead of two chicken legs. ![]() The overall set-up here is very nice as well. ![]() On the wall edge there is a feeding crane to lower food into the Indominus pen. The next wall features an observation deck. The Gyrospheres were nowhere near the Indominus pen in the movie, and for good reason. The only thing I don’t like about this is that it is not true to the movie in any way. It rolls flawlessly from the dock, and keeps the Minifigure inside upright as it rolls along. The Gyrosphere launches by pushing a rod from the inside of the Indominus pen. This is a really neat play feature that actually works very well. Moving around the first corner, you pass the Gyrosphere dock. The LEGO Indominus rex Breakout has a really nice front gate design. The design also allows the door to slide open with ease, and is a really nice build. I am also impressed with the reinforced metal beam look in the corners and the door frame. The interlocking teeth along the inside edges of the doors look amazing. Starting with the front, I really like the main gate. There are four main sections to the Indominus rex compound. At full price, set earns a value score of 4/5 (80%), but on sale that grade goes up to 4.5/5 (90%). This means that each brick cost me $0.10. I waited for a 20% off sale, which means the whole kit set me back $120.00. With 1156 pieces, and a price tag of $149.99 CAD, each brick comes with a $0.13 price tag at full cost.

Of Interest: Mosquito amber fossil, Erlenmeyer flask I really enjoyed the other sets in the theme, so lets see how this ones compares. Finally, it happened, and I acquired the Indominus rex Breakout. I was all the while patiently waiting for the mother of all Jurassic World sets to go on sale. Both went on liquidation this past summer. rex Tracker ( click here to read it) and Raptor Rampage ( click here to read it) sets. I am just plain thrilled to have LEGO dinosaurs. While the first one remains the best, I am always willing to dish out money to watch people running from dinosaurs, regardless of how bad the script might be (and some of the movies in that franchise had pretty bad scripts). If it was not obvious from some of my previous posts, I love Jurassic Park.
