The small venomous carnivore dinosaur from Jurassic Park gets a MiniCo statue by Iron Studios!
Hidden among the foliage in the middle of Isla Nublar’s vegetation, its whistles, howling, and growling call the attention to his presence. Occasionally peeking out from behind a tree, either playing or displaying curiosity while attempting to remain hidden, the small dinosaur did not show any fear when standing in front of the large man with a yellow jacket, who tried to push it away by playing and underestimating its size, throwing a wooden stick for it to fetch like a dog. The dinosaur showed little care for the thrown object, and chose to observe Dennis Nedry’s actions, who was still mocking the creature’s intelligence, until the moment the computer programmer saw it expand and shake its hidden frills and felt the paralyzing effects of the spit tar venom, and figured out that not only big dinosaurs are dangerous. Over a base with a lot of references, such as the East Dock sign and the fake shaving cream can covered by the mud at its feet, Iron Studios present the statue “ Dilophosaurus - Jurassic Park - MiniCo”, the peculiar green dinosaur with dark stains and yellowish-orange frills, who premiered by itself in Jurassic Park (1993), but in the sequel was presented hunting in pack.
Dennis Nedry, responsible for the entire Jurassic Park security system, accepted a 1.5 million dollars bribe to steal InGen’s dinosaur embryos. In order to do that, he deactivated nearly the entire security of the park by cutting down the power supply and hid 15 species in a fake can of shaving cream designed to preserve them for 36 hours. Nedry anticipated his plan, leaving the Visitors’ Center to deliver the stolen embryos to his contact at the East Dock, who was about to leave in a ship but, caught in a storm, he loses control of his vehicle and crashes close to his objective, where he encounters a small carnivore and discovers that it wasn’t as harmless as he initially thought.
Already available for Pre-Order, Dilophosaurus MiniCo was revealed on Thursday, November 30th, 2023, on the panel at the Ultra Stage at CCXP 2023, and later exhibited alongside other MiniCo statues from Jurassic Park, which marked the return of the beloved dinosaurs in the MiniCo line, a huge Iron Studios success in the past, now coming back for fans and collectors. Revealed in detail on the Inside Iron Studios Day of March, check out the statue T-Rex 30th Anniversary MiniCo in two versions, Deluxe and regular, which is scheduled to hit the shelves still in the first trimester of 2024.
