What Makes Hammond Collection Figures Special
Every Hammond Collection dinosaur figure features hand-painted weathering effects, subtle color gradients across the skin, and anatomically accurate musculature and skeletal detail. The plastic quality is noticeably higher than standard Jurassic World figures — thicker, heavier, with a matte finish that photographs beautifully. Each figure includes a branded display stand and premium window-box packaging designed for shelf display without opening.
Articulation is designed for posing rather than play. Multiple points of movement in the jaw, neck, limbs, and tail let collectors achieve dynamic display poses. The joints are tight enough to hold positions indefinitely — a crucial feature for display figures that standard play figures often lack.
Best Hammond Collection Figures
The collection includes the original T-Rex (the most popular and frequently restocked), the Velociraptors (sold individually with unique paint patterns), the Dilophosaurus (with its iconic frill extended), Brachiosaurus (the largest figure in the line), and newer additions from Jurassic World Dominion and Rebirth. Each wave adds 3-5 new species.
