Character Background
Dr. Alan Grant is the protagonist of the original Jurassic Park (1993), a paleontologist specialized in dinosaur behavior who survives the Isla Nublar incident.
Design Notes
Accurately replicates the character's costume from the 'Raptors in the Kitchen' sequence. The use of white hands is meant to suggest the light gray shirt sleeves extending to the wrist.
Similar Minifigures
Ellie Sattler (jw002), Ian Malcolm (jw003), and the 2022 Dr. Alan Grant (jw091).
Collectibility
High demand among Jurassic Park enthusiasts. As the first official LEGO rendition of Alan Grant since the studios theme era, it remains a staple for collectors.
History
LEGO Jurassic World launched in 2015, but fans had to wait until 2018 for this 'legacy' version of the character to coincide with the film's 25th anniversary.
Interesting Facts
The torso print includes the fossilized raptor claw tucked into the pocket, which is also included as a physical accessory piece in the set.
Display Suggestions
Display alongside the Velociraptor and Dr. Ellie Sattler in a laboratory vignette or kitchen scene setup from set 75932.
Modification Potential
Excellent. Many fans swap the head for other Sam Neill-like likenesses or use the torso for custom archeologist MOCs.
Overall Assessment
A top-tier licensed minifigure. Accurate, iconic, and essential for fans of the original movie. Rating: 9/10 (Requires hat to be complete).
