Official Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous reveal!

One of the Camp Cretaceous dinosaur toys is a Carcharodontosaurus, so that could possibly be in season 3 and it kind of looks like it's JWE design.

There's no revealed box art or anything else to say it's Camp Cretaceous marketing related just yet, but I have been aware of such a thing for a while. I'm quite surprised they made the Carcha to be based on the JWE design. Not sure if Frontier collaborated with Mattel somehow or god-knows what, because the body shape, details (such as the spines), patterns and colors look so accurately like the JWE Carcharodontosaurus with the Null/Basic skin.

I think the toys with the CC label aren't wholly from the series anyway (there's two random unnamed Velociraptors for example), granted some might show up in future seasons.

According to producer Scott Kreamer in the 50+ minute interview with The Jurassic Park Podcast I shared months ago, he explicitly confirms that not every dinosaur that appears in the Camp Cretaceous sub-toyline is going to appear in the show.

It's more like every other Jurassic action figure toyline since the early 1990s where species appear as figures don't necessarily mean they do appear in any of the previous 5 theatrical films they're marketing. The BaBR sub-toyline from Dino Rivals I consider a mere exception because it only had two dinos that both appeared in the short and the short in itself was not as big of a long lasting deal as this TV show in comparison.

In the trailer there is something very, but not totally, unexpecting. At least for me.

First thing’s first, the show’s producers in an interview with The Jurassic Park Podcast explicitly confirmed that the dinosaur roster selection, at least for the first season in which that said interview was made shortly after it aired, was a “pick and choose” kind of scenario. They said that, ideally, you would want to add “everything” or what not, but they wanted to just pick and choose. The same thing can also be seen in the second season, while also introducing dinos the first one didn’t have (T.Rex, Ceratosaurus, and Baryonyx) and excluding the ones seen exclusively in Season 1 (Mosasaurus and Indominus Rex).

In this next Season, the next new on-screen dinos for the series seem to be the “E750 Project”, the Dimorphodon, the Gallimimus (only in the exclusive trailer on Netflix's website), and... a shadow that resembled this:
(Source: Collect Jurassic’s Twitter account. This figure set was teased sometime before this post, which I've known since then.)

This image from Twitter, by Collect Jurassic who have a good relationship with Mattel, is a Kenji figure with a Monolophosaurus.

Figures of a dinosaur species made for a Jurassic show does not necessarily mean they do appear in what they’re marketing, even if it’s a popular seller or giant sized item in and of themselves. Even producer Scott Kreaner confirms and clarified this subject in a 50+ interview video I posted months ago. This, however, is one exception.

This means that the Monolophosaurus is not only appearing physically and alive in Camp Cretaceous, it’s also a brand new on-screen dinosaur species in the JP film series! Something I didn’t really expect. But admittedly, I kinda did theorize it may appear in there because it was made for a Kenji figure with a differently shaped model to further make my suspicions of such more probable, but not definite.

The thing’s shadow in the trailer also resembles the figure made for it, which confirms my theory as to how on-screen dinosaur species sold as action figures must resemble a model by great extends (regarding the whole body shape). Mattel has made many Monolophosaurus toy models, but none that resemble greatly to the actual dinosaur to be seen in the show as indicated by the shadow.

So, if a dinosaur that’s been previously been made to become figures, but has not been made to be on-screen, but eventually does in due time, expect the dinosaur figure for it then to have a differently shaped model to further resemble it.

Yeah, I wouldn't think it likely this season, with Universal's slight tendency to overshare with trailers. There's still next season, and potentially even another after that, so maybe someday.

It's bit strange, the spines on the back and neck don't seem to appear as part of the silhouette in the trailer. I guess they just removed them from the final design, or that it's an older version of the scene.

With the new toy versions, I think they have updated some of them in the past, so I'm unsure if it's definite if that situation occurs in future, but yeah it would seem pretty likely.

This is true with plenty of Mattel's figures, actually. And plenty of figures since the 1990s. Some of the dinos' model's may have extra or exaggerated details, yet those extra things are merely minor and still greatly resemble those of what they're trying to be for a general person's perception.

For instance, the Sinoceratops' (the ones accurately modeled after the on-screen depictions, after the last minute name change happened years ago) horns are larger than all the ones on-screen, the Apatosaurus's feet have more visible toes than they do on-screen, the Triceratops bodies have more visible scutes than the ones in the current Jurassic World films, some of their Allosaurus skulls are more broader than all the ones seen on screen, and so on.

I think the thing on screen has spines, but the quality of the shadow is not sharp enough. Plus, the crest shape, while resembling greatly to the toy figure, is also a bit bigger.

Scorpius Rex and Monolophosaurus will soon join Dimorphodon as official on screen species that still need to be added to Jurassic World Evolution. Really hoping they have a content update planned for later this year and not just a PS5 port announcement.

They've already confirmed countless times, even most recently as yesterday, they have nothing for official next gen related development for it.

This is news to me. I hadn't seen them say that yet. This gets me much more excited for whatever they are planning to announce later this year. =D

They've been saying that for several months now on their social platforms, including here, saying they have no plans for official next gen support. Their recent confirmation was a tweet reply to someone's comment.

They (let alone AAA devs in general) won't ever specify further what they're working or when during this year when there's no announcement or something to share yet. But Frontier can very broadly tease something in this style when the time is right, like right now, as they have countless times before. Like for instance, when they teased a roadmap on Twitter in 2019, beyond their "Summer update" plan, it said "something special" afterwards but without further specifications.

Seeing new dinosaurs appearing in the netflix series has really peaked my interest. 😁

Usually, if a herbivore dinosaur is going to play an dangerous role, it would probably have features used to showcase that aggression like the triceratops, stegosaurus, pachycephalosaurus, or ankylosaurus. The last herbivore dinosaur I expected to play a role in such a scene are the ones like this oranosaurus, and it is not even a stampede scene! She is actively going out of her way to get Kennji, and I am definitely curious and excited to see why that is.
 
It took forever, but I found what I was looking for: An official source


Recently, videos are trending and sharing across multiple YouTubers a video clip which features a new dinosaur species that will appear in Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous, and as a new on-screen species as a whole for the film series, as shared by @Jurassic Tyrant King.

The Ouranosaurus! A dinosaur that which this game also has via Claire’s Sanctuary.

I’ve actually known this already since yesterday, but I couldn’t say anything about it yet because I had no idea where these people got that clip from because nobody has ever specified where it originated from. Meaning, I couldn’t tell if it was a leak (a video unauthorized to be shared to the public yet in any way, shape, or form) or an exclusive clip officially made available elsewhere.

Today, however, after browsing on FaceBook, I’ve found out that the clip is an official exclusive uploaded by DreamWorks on their official YouTube channel as an “Unlisted” video. I found it published on an article on comicbook.com, dating May 17.

This article also interviews the show’s producers Scott Kreamer and Colin Trevorrow who talk about the show itself.

The video in and of itself was uploaded on May 5. So, the dino’s reveal video was uploaded about 2 weeks ago, but shared publicly just yesterday!

(The official but unlisted exclusive video by DreamWorks.)

Ironically, there is an Ouranosaurus toy made by Mattel that looks just like it, and is available for pre-order now. There’s no current confirmation that it has the CC packaging, but this reveal is answer enough to say it does, not like how the Carcharodontosaurus is just a regular Dino Escape figure as indicated by it’s revealed packaging.


But, let me just say this: I NEVER EVER would have thought the Ouranosaurus would be a new species for the show, let alone be a new film series lore dinosaur! An on-screen dino at that, or at least this soon!

A bit of a weird behaviour isn't it. A bit reminiscent of the glowing Parasaurolophus from season 1.

It could be opportunistic carnivory like with deer or just being territorial (protecting offscreen hatchlings for example).

The video description says they're not typically aggressive, it could be linked to E750, like maybe hallucinogenic venom (it seems to be a thing with some spiders, powdered scorpion can give hallucinations when smoked).

Considering the novels are a bit more of an inspiration, this might be what their version of DX is, being more like rabies.

There's also the chance it'll just remain unexplained, but still an interesting thing if it isn't.

The glowing Paras were vaguely confirmed by Darius who figured that Wu must’ve added the glowing gene in them to make them as such.

I can’t say for fact that the aggressive Ouranosaurs were the result of genetic modification like the Paras, opportunistic carnivory, diseases, territorial behavior, hallucinations, hormones, nest defending, malnutrition, or even just high stress levels.
 
Bestinslot pretty much makes sense when it comes to Dinosaur behavior in Camp Cretaceous and the fact that the dinosaurs are acting aggressively not just the dimorphodons or the ouranosaurus, but animals act of aggression when they smell a predator around which makes a lot of sense of living animals do the same thing.
