Rarity
Common; this figure was widely distributed in multiple sets and a polybag during the movie's marketing cycle.
Head
Light Flesh dual-sided head with a smirk and scowling expression, featuring a brown eyebrows and stubble detail. Topped with a Bright Light Yellow (Cool Yellow) messy hair piece (mold 15443).
Torso
Dark Tan vest over a light gray shirt with short sleeves (flesh arms). Features a detailed printing of a tactical vest, an orange bandana, and black straps. Back printing includes the back of the vest and straps.
Legs
Dark Tan legs with detailed printing of pockets, zippers, a belt with a silver buckle, and silver knee pads/armor plates.
Accessories
Usually included a tranquilizer gun or a satchel in sets (none pictured). In the image, common black hands are attached.
Color Scheme
Earth-toned palette consisting of Dark Tan, Light Gray, and Light Flesh, accented by orange and black details to reflect a survivalist/zoologist aesthetic.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the torso and the front of the legs. The leg printing is particularly detailed for a standard play-set figure, including metallic silver highlights on the zippers and buckles.
Variants
There are over 10 variants of Owen Grady; this specific jw014 version is distinguished by the orange bandana and specific tactical vest pattern. Other versions feature leather jackets or plain shirts.
Condition Notes
Watch for 'arm cracks' which are common in flesh-toned arms, and wear on the silver leg printing which can rub off with heavy play. The hair piece is robust but can suffer from teeth marks.
Estimated Value
Used: $2.00 - $4.00 USD; New: $5.00 - $7.00 USD. Value is low due to high production volume and presence in budget sets.

Character Background
Owen Grady is a navy veteran and ethologist played by Chris Pratt, known for training Velociraptors (specifically Blue) at Jurassic World.
Design Notes
The hair piece was specifically chosen to match Chris Pratt's likeness. The use of 'short-sleeve' printing on the arms is a modern technique to show layering without dual-molding.

Collectibility
High character appeal but low investment value due to commonality. Essential for completionists of the Jurassic World line.
History
First introduced in 2015 with the launch of the Jurassic World theme, this 2018 version updated the character's gear for the sequel, Fallen Kingdom.
Interesting Facts
The face print used here has been reused for several other 'hero' characters, including Star-Lord and various City characters, due to its versatile handsome-yet-rugged look.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed alongside a LEGO Velociraptor (Blue) or within a jungle-themed MOC. Standard acrylic cases are suitable for protection.
Modification Potential
Excellent for military or mercenary MOCs. The torso and legs are versatile for any desert or survival-themed custom minifigure.
Overall Assessment
A solid, highly detailed representation of a popular movie protagonist. While not rare, the print quality and character accuracy make it a standout for play and display.
