Top 5 Best Jurassic Park Action Figures

  In the past I have written about the best Superman figures, and the best Batman figures ever made. I have never done the Best Jurassic Park figures ever made before, so lets get cracking. I'll cover figures from all of the movies.
1. Sarah Harding. This figure is one of the few figures that Kenner actually got right. It's pretty much one of the rarest and most sought after figures out there. Not only does this figure have the attire right, the headsculpt is dead on accurate to Julianne Moore. They even got the dinosaur and accessory right by giving her a baby stegosaurus and camera. The net thingy is the only thing that doesn't make any sense with her.
2. Ian Malcolm. This figure is also from the Lost World Jurassic Park. Ian's head seems like its a reuse from Jurassic Park. Anyway the headscan is pretty decent for a Kenner interpretation of Jeff Goldblum. There are 2 different hair variations to Ian Malcolm, one with short hair and one with long hair. Anyway the figure is a major improvement over his first figure.
3. Nick Van Owen. This figure is one of two that has Vince Vaughn's likeness. Nick Van Owen from Series 2 is pretty rare and goes for a bunch of money. Unlike the Nick Van Owen with the hat from series one, series 2 version is much better. It comes with a cool camera accessory which reminds me of the one that came with the Jakks BCA cameraman. Nick Van Owen is a video specialist, not a tracking expert.

4. Alan Grant. Ok this is one of two figures from Jurassic Park III to make it on the list. Alan Grant is one of the only figures from this line to not have any torn clothes. Also the figure looks a lot better than the one from the first movie. Also the Compies are better than the ones that came with Dieter Stark because they are more realistic looking but are a bit out of scale compared to the 4 inch Alan Grant. I do want to add that the Jurassic Park III figures are smaller than the previous 2 movies figures.
5. Military Diver. Okay this figure doesn't make any sense in the least bit because he wasn't in Jurassic Park III. However he makes it onto this list because he is one of the most playable action figures that Hasbro came up with. The possibilities are endless with the diver. The figure may seem bland and generic but I kid you not he is one of the most detailed figures made. He has a sculpted Divers Watch. I freaking love divers watches.
