Meet the New Dinosaurs of Jurassic World Rebirth with Funko's Prehistoric POP! Figures (EXCLUSIVE)
The dinosaurs are bigger, badder, and, in the case of their Funko figures, adorable.
The dinosaurs of Jurassic World Rebirth are bigger, badder, and, in the case of their Funko POP! figures, rather adorable.
That's to say we have an exclusive look at the company's new toy line based on the hotly-anticipated blockbuster, which will introduce a number of new dinosaurs to the iconic film franchise. The most dreaded creature among this menagerie of genetically engineered monsters is the Distortus Rex, a colossal mutant abomination inspired by Alien's Xenomorph and Return of the Jedi's Rancor, as director Gareth Edwards (Godzilla, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story) revealed to Vanity Fair. In Funko form, though, ol' Distortus looks quite cuddly.
Other newcomers to the big screen include Aquilops (a rabbit-sized ancestor of Triceratops from the Early Cretaceous), Diabloceratops (a resident of the Late Cretaceous known for its devilish horns), and Titanosaurus (a massive, long-necked sauropod relative of Brachiosaur and Apatosaurus from the Late Jurassic period).
Of course, there are plenty of returning dinosaurs as well — namely T. rex (duh!), Velociraptor (also duh!), venom-spitting Dilophosaurus, Spinosaurus (not seen since Jurassic Park III), Mosasaurus (a maritime staple of Colin Trevorrow's Jurassic World trilogy), Carnotaurus (last seen chasing Owen Grady through the streets of Malta in Jurassic World Dominion), and Quetzalcoatlus (last seen wrecking Kayla Watts' plane in Dominion).
In other words, Rebirth was a chance for screenwriter David Koepp — celebrated cinema scribe behind Jurassic Park and The Lost World — to stroll down memory lane while delivering plenty of fresh, man-eating thrills. As for the story, the seventh franchise installment brings us to the island where InGen conducted the original genetic research for John Hammond's failed theme park. An expedition led by Zora Bennett (Scarlett Johansson) hopes to collect DNA samples of the biggest animals on behalf of a pharmaceutical company, which alleges the genetic material will be used to develop medical breakthroughs for humanity. Sure, Jan.
