Mattel SDCC Jurassic Park 30th Anniversary Steven Spielberg Review and Images

It's Wednesday and you know what that means... ToyFarce review!

This week, we're having a look at the SDCC Jurassic Park 30th Anniversary Steven Spielberg set from Mattel. Getting a Hammond Collection Steven Spielberg action figure was certainly not on my bingo card for 2023, but here we are, and I'm happy! The set has a really fun packaging, and is great for both fans of Jurassic Park, or cinema in general.

The set comes in a very sober sleeve, all black with the Jurassic Park logo on the front, but it gets way better when you open it! There is another box inside, that looks like a cinema clapperboard, with the Jurassic Park info on one side, and the figure and dinosaur displayed on the other. The clapperboard actually works... Whoever designed this packaging deserves a raise!










The SDCC Jurassic Park 30th Anniversary Steven Spielberg set comes with a Hammond Collection scale figure of director Steven Spielberg, a director chair, a camera and a Dilophosaurus, complete with his animatronic stand. The Dilophosaurus is the same as the one that came out in 2022, and comes with 2 removable neck pieces (open frill and closed). You can recreate the shooting of the Dilophosaurus scene, if you have the Dennis Nedry figure and the Jepp . Fun fact: That is the scene that gave me nightmares when I saw Jurassic Park at the cinema when it came out, as a child. Yay!












Steven Spielberg doesn't really need any introductions. Jaws, E.T., the Indiana Jones trilogy, Jurassic Park, the Schindler's List... Spielberg's body of work is legendary, and it's really nice to have a little plastic representation on him on our shelves. The only nitpick being the scale, because it would have been really fun to have him standing next to the Black Series Stormtrooper George Lucas. I had some fun with those pictures, adding the Hammond Collection T-Rex from last year, which is easily one of my favorite toy from the last few years.
