LEGO Dino Triceratops Trapper 5885




Lego's Triceratops trapper set is amazing. I love this set even though it has a couple of issues. The first thing you'll notice with this set is how large the vehicle is. It feels like a monster truck especially when scaled next to the figure and Triceratops. It feels like a fortress of its own. It comes with a detachable Triceratops cage that can slide down/off the truck to capture the Tric. Then there's the main piece of the set the Tric. I absolutely love the Tric. It's scaled correctly, accurately detailed, painted symmetrically, and has many points of articulation. I can't find a single imperfection to the Triceratops. As much as I love this set it does have some issues. For instance, the set comes with 2 figure but the cockpit of the truck only has room for 1. Also, the roof of the cockpit doesn't come with a hinge, so you literally will have to pull the entire roof off to place a figure in instead of just lifting it up and down. Then there's the realism aspect of the truck, I mean the cage is detachable, but there isn't any kind of platform or lift to place the cage back onto the truck. I don't believe 2 figures can lift a cage filled with a Triceratops back onto a truck without some sort of apparatus on the truck. The cage also only fits the Triceratops and nothing else, its too big for the Ceolphysis and Deinonychus but too small for the T-rex.

I still love this set though and would definitely recommend this to anyone who loves Dinosaurs and Legos. Plus the great thing about Legos, you can adjust the design to your specifications with spare Lego pieces.
