"Triceratops Pickup Truck Ambush earns its Mixed Reviews BrickScore of 67.6 honestly: critics from JANG, Brothers Brick, and Brickset all found the Triceratops to be the lone standout in a set weighed down by an overpriced piece ratio, bland vehicles, and weak secondary minifigures. If the dinosaur is the draw, you may be happy; if you want a complete set that delivers on every front, other Jurassic World sets at the same price point are the stronger choice."
Expert reviewers agree that the Triceratops Pickup Truck Ambush is a set carried by one standout element: the Triceratops dinosaur itself, which earns consistent praise for its dark bluish-grey coloration, printed scarring, and neck articulation. The vehicles and minifigures are widely criticized as bland and overpriced relative to the mold investment. Owner ratings are notably higher (4.8 out of 5, 544 ratings, 86% recommend) than the expert BrickScore of 67.6 would suggest, reflecting a split where parents buying for children are satisfied by the play value while critics focus on the poor parts-per-dollar ratio and derivative vehicle builds.
Where they split: The most notable split is between expert critics and owner buyers. Experts (BrickScore 65.4, two sources scoring 65) focused on the poor parts value and derivative vehicles. Owners rated it 4.8 out of 5 with 86% recommending, reflecting that children engaging with the play features and the impressive dinosaur size found it satisfying regardless of build depth.

"this one does have all that battle damage on it all that specific scarring but it is a triceratops it is a decent sized herbivore and we get far too few herbivores so overall i have to count this as a win"
