Last year, LEGO released the LEGO Jurassic World Dinosaur Fossils: Tyrannosaurus rex (76968) and they are back again this year with another fossil set, the Dinosaur Fossils: Triceratops (77985). This new set has 1,154 pieces and retails for $109.99 is is currently available on the LEGO Shop.

He wears a short sleeved shirt with some blue pants. The pants are somewhat inaccurate as he has more light brown pants in the movie. The head shows him with some sunglasses and a mustache. His accessories include a flashlight and a medkit.

Hidden inside one of the plants is a printed mosquito in amber 1×1 brick. This is a reference to the mosquito that the Jurassic Park engineers used to extra DNA from.
