Velociraptor Escape

"A BrickScore of 51.5 is an honest verdict: 76957 Velociraptor Escape is an overpriced 4+ set that earns its Skip It rating for value-conscious buyers, redeemed only by the exclusive Robert Muldoon minifigure for Jurassic Park completionists willing to pay a premium for the character."

76957 Velociraptor Escape carries a BrickScore of 51.5, landing in Skip It territory, and the expert reviews make clear why. At $39.99 for just 137 pieces ($0.29 per piece), critics from Brickset and Tiago Catarino both identified the price as the central problem for a 4+ juniorized set. There is, however, a genuine split with owners: 471 ratings averaged 4.78 out of 5 with a 78% would-recommend rate, though the value for money owner signal dropped to 3.2 out of 5, which aligns with the critics' core concern.

Where they split: The expert-versus-owner split is meaningful here. Critics gave verdicts of 68 and 35, centering on a pricing problem and juniorized construction. Owners rated it 4.78 out of 5 overall, but their own value signal at 3.2 out of 5 confirms the price concern crosses audience lines. Brickset also favored the earlier medium nougat and dark brown raptor from 75932 over the new colorway, while Tiago Catarino was more favorable toward the new raptor's movie accuracy.
