Subject: Release the Buck T-Rex HC Figure *WORLDWIDE* Petition Thu Aug 24, 2023 8:16 pm
Since the crowdfund failed I have decided to create a petition to get the HC Buck T-Rex released. The petition text is below:
iPetition wrote:
This petition is sponsored by Jurassic-Pedia, the unofficial Jurassic Park/Jurassic World encyclopedia. Jurassic-Pedia has always strived to be the most trusted authority of all things Jurassic Park and Jurassic World. We archive the canon of the series in order for the fandom to understand and enjoy it. As such, we sponsor this petition to Mattel Creations to get one of the most beloved "dinosaur characters" of the franchise an action figure with collector-quality detail and immeasurable accuracy to the original animatronic produced for The Lost World: Jurassic Park film.
Mattel Creations recently held a crowdfund for the Jurassic Park series that was unsuccessful. One of the many things offered on the crowdfund - at a specific backer level - was the Buck T-Rex from the second movie in collector-level detail and quality. While our goal is to meet the 5,000 signature level - which is what the original Gates project required to meet in order to consider it funded, we urge as many people as possible to exceed that goal. We believe this is possible to meet given the animal's popularity and beloved status in the fandom!
Rumor has it the reason for its inclusion was that it would not sell on store shelves. The dinosaur is a popular and well-loved icon by the fandom and it would in fact sell. There are alternatives to brick-and-mortar retailers and could even be offered as an exclusive (Worldwide availability) on Mattel Creations website or another outlet like BigBadToyStore, EntertainmentEarth, or even Amazon. This petition is to show Mattel there is massive support for having this figure made and to help show that there is a collector market still for the Jurassic Park/Jurassic World toylines. Share on social media with these hashtags: #ReleaseTheBuck#NoBuckNoBucks#WeWantTheBuck
Please, if you can spare a few moments by signing the petition here: https://www.ipetitions.com/petition/release-the-buck-t-rex-hc-figure to get this figure a much-needed release. I appreciate any true fans out there who will sign to support this. Thank you.
