I saw Reimagined Quetzalcoatlus at one Target... and then for a few weeks, not many other Targets. Early in August, the chain had a 20% off sale on all Jurassic World toys and this guy blew out fast. I did a lot of driving around to get one, and it'll probably restock and be common. I'll probably regret the purchase. Based on the 1990s Kenner Firebeak avian from Jurassic Park, this update is a new mold, using what appears to be the existing CAD file as its basis, and I am very concerned about the longevity of this toy. Like, just looking at it, it seems fragile and like it'll crumble.

This is such a curious toy, and a curious line. The Jurassic World Legacy Collection Reimagined aesthetics play up the vibes of 1993-1998 toys from Kenner. The branding feels like it's implying it's for adults, but picking these toys up makes me think they're for kids. If you're a Star Wars collector, I guess I would say that it reminds me of what Kenner and Hasbro did in the 1990s-2000s, up until The Legacy Collection. They're all modern sculpts, but with articulation on par with or better than their original ancestors, but designed for ages four and up. I guess that means that the target audience is guys my age who are me. (Apologies to Dana Gould.)

The supremely wide 25-inch wingspan dwarfs much of the line, and she measures about 14 inches from beak to claw. It came out with a wave of exclusives featuring an orange t-rex and Vince Vaughn plus Bryce Dallas Howard and a clear ball with neon colors, but for some reason Target opted to not stock the flyer at most of its stores upon release in July 2026. That means it's either a low run, or we'll be seeing this one in abundance at some closeout place later. It's big, the feathery detail is great, and the paint is... well... we'll see, I guess.

The leathery part of the wing is molded to the leg - which means the legs are also rubbery. The "arm" part of the wing is a harder rubber with a bendable wire inside. Mattel sometimes has challenges making these elements out of materials that stand the test of time, so I'd recommend buying this before it gets molested in the store (or get it direct online.) The interior of the wing has a crackled yellow pattern, while the back is white fading to grey with orange lightning bolts for some reason. It looks cool. The beak is molded in a very bright red, with a molded orange crest. The eyes are painted quite nicely, with a skull jointed at the neck and another joint where the neck meets the body. It has an excellent range of motion.

The hips are jointed, but the toy is not capable of standing on its own two feet - you'll needs to bend the wings to do that, and I'm rather apprehensive to do it. Each arm can rotate and bend, so if I can find another one at a steep discount I might bend it in a "standing" position and then never touch it again. I might be paranoid, but for a big $38 toy I don't like to worry about future breakages. Hasbro's track record has been a bit better, and maybe Mattel nailed it, but something about the paint makes me go "that yellow's gonna crumble off some day."

So why buy her? She's fun. The button on her back activates what seems to be at least four whoops and roars, and she is most swooshable. If you've ever played around with a toy plane or space ship, you know what I mean. Maybe you're in your 40s, but if you pick up a flying dinosaur and nobody's around you're probably going to have a little fun and have it attack your other toys. That - and maybe completism - is why you want this particular flyer. It has a nice heft to it, and the sounds button also opens the beak - with a visible, separate tongue inside.

I wound up going off the deep end with the Reimagined toys after finding some on clearance and liking the general vibe. I don't particularly like flying dinosaur toys because they're hard to display and keep nice - they can't stand up, and if you lay them down they take up a whole shelf. I would really like there to be a flight stand (3D printed or otherwise) or some other means of display. But that's not what this is about - it's about telling you to buy this or not. I'm inclined to say if it's ever on sale, give it a look and if it speaks to you? Get it. It's a toy in the traditional sense, in that you're probably going to play with it and it's probably going to decay in 20 or 30 years (but that's OK, 'cause so are you.) Since I grew up with Star Wars Kenner toys, I found those things to be generally durable and had few breakages - I am not sure how this guy is going to handle in a child's toy box, but I'm going to take really good care of her as long as I can.

It was my original intent to be all-in on Mattel Jurassic World but repetition of creatures and some impossible-to-get items made me back out after the (admittedly high-quality) wave one cases hit shelves. But at least for now, I'm coming back for Reimagined and 93 on eBay. It's a smaller, more curated collection of items and as a result will not take up my entire house. I would not recommend this as your first purchase, but if you need a whole zoo of these crazy things? Get this one.
