A roaring return for LEGO Jurassic World in 2025?
The LEGO Jurassic World theme, known for bringing prehistoric creatures to brick-built life, might be gearing up for a massive 2025. Rumors suggest up to nine new sets are on the horizon, a fitting move with Jurassic World Rebirth hitting theaters on July 2, 2025. Among these rumored sets, one standout is generating significant buzz: a potential T. Rex Skeleton model.
What we know about the T. Rex Skeleton set
According to reliable LEGO leaker fateful_04, set number 76968 T. Rex Skeleton is rumored to launch in March 2025 as a direct-to-consumer (D2C) set with a price tag of $249.99. If true, this set could be a major addition to the LEGO Jurassic World lineup, especially since it would mark the theme’s first D2C set since 2019’s divisive 75936 Jurassic Park: T. Rex Rampage.
This new model may build on the foundation laid by this year’s 76964 Dinosaur Fossils: T. Rex Skull, a 577-piece set released on January 1, 2024, which offered a unique take on Jurassic World builds. Fans speculated then about the possibility of full dinosaur skeletons, and it seems LEGO may be listening. A complete Tyrannosaurus Rex skeleton would undoubtedly be an impressive and display-worthy creation, signaling a potential new direction for the theme.

Could this signal more fossil-focused LEGO sets?
While LEGO has tackled iconic dinosaur scenes and creatures from the Jurassic Park and Jurassic World franchises, this rumored T. Rex Skeleton could signal a deeper dive into fossil-inspired models. Such sets could appeal not only to fans of the franchise but also to paleontology enthusiasts and adult LEGO collectors. Expanding into educational or museum-style builds could open new doors for the Jurassic World theme, setting it apart from more traditional play-focused sets.
What to expect
As always, it’s worth noting that none of this information is officially confirmed by LEGO, so treat it as speculation for now. However, the timing of this rumor fits perfectly with the renewed excitement around the franchise, and the potential for a model like the T. Rex Skeleton seems logical given the success of recent fossil-themed sets. If true, this set could rival other high-profile LEGO releases in both detail and price, offering a must-have item for dedicated collectors.
