This set, comprising 3,145 pieces, is tailored for adults aged 18 and above, emphasizing its display purpose over play. It incorporates advanced building techniques that may challenge younger builders. The sheer size of the set can be hard to grasp from images alone, but the included minifigures of Dr. Grant and Dr. Sattler provide a helpful scale reference. The skeleton's skull mirrors the design of the existing LEGO T-rex skull set, which has been praised for its detail and build quality. The addition of the full skeleton significantly enhances the overall impact of this new set.

The T-rex skeleton features articulated joints, allowing for various posing options. The head can move, the jaw can open, and the arms and tail are adjustable. Like many LEGO sets inspired by films, this one includes hidden Easter eggs to uncover during the building process. Additionally, it comes with a display stand and an informational plaque detailing the T-rex's diet, habitat, and more.
