Who remembers this image from SDCC 2018?
It was from the Mattel presentation about their Jurassic World Legacy collection and showed their plans to release a number of new dinosaurs, including an enormous Brachiosaurus in scale with the 3.75 inch Jurassic Park/World figures.
While the future of the line had been in doubt, it now seems Mattel are pressing ahead and the line will be aligned to specific retailer exclusives with the Brachiosaurus being a Target US exclusive. Here is a tease ahead of what we assume will be a full Toy Fair 2019 reveal.
UK/Worldwide fans should not worry (yet) as the line and the Brachiosaurus will be offered Internationally. It will of course be with the vendors to order the stock, so while we got the Spinosaurus when the US struggled, we never saw the Mosasaurus on UK shelves.
"I want to let you guys know that we are planning to offer a mainline packaging variant for the brachiosaurus for international territories, meaning that retailers around the world will be able to carry the brachiosaurus, even if they have not previously taken anything from the legacy collection. this is still, at the end of the day, up to the buyers and the retailers themselves to support these items at the local level, but know that we have heard you and we are doing everything we can to make it possible for people around the world to own and enjoy all of our dinosaurs."
