I bought this set in 2005 after thinking whether to buy this set or viking ship and I chose this one.

First of all, don't judge the set by its box, the box was too big for this set and it only contained 278 pieces. But after you build that pieces, it becomes masterpieces.

This set contained three mini figures, the uniform design was very nice and so much detailed. The Iron Predator itself are very playable and looks dashing. The tank has a rocket launcher in there with a cockpit, a steering wheel, a gun, etc. Very detailed interior in there.

Now the T-Rex, not much building experience in here, but the design itself was pretty good and looks menacing plus it's big. The articulation is good, but it lacks of articulation in its tail. Well, it doesn't bother me actually.

The minus of this set were the stickers for sure. I prefer the printed one.

Overall, this set was pretty good although a little bit pricey, but I assure you that this set was worth your money. Dino fans should buy this set for sure.

I got this at TRU back in 2005,and Now this is the one of the only Dino Attack sets I have still in one piece(the other one is the Quad-bike).The tank is a little roomy ant has plenty of features like:Gun-turret,Driver controls,and missle turret, and more.The T-Rex has a small build and has a button on the back his head that you press to light his eyes and tongue.

Summary

This is indeed one of the best Dino-Attack sets around.If you find it for a good price Buy it. -Thanks for reading.

2005 Dino Attack, that was a year, especially come Christmas time and I discovered had given me and my X the entire theme as gifts after a rant and rave over how cool the series looked and plans to go out and pick it up.

At $40, this is semi-medium sized kit going towards large, granted I got this as a gift, it's still very worth it. This was the first set opened and getting a T-Rex out of. This one is green, the head has a button on top to press and cause its eyes to glow red. The jaw opens and there's something of a build with attaching the head, legs and arms to this beast.

As to the Tank... It's a fairly good and solid design with the brick red and tan coloring for the vehicles of this theme. A turrent and massive cannon on back make it so this tank can pack a bunch when facing off against the giant T-Rex. The Tank treads look cool, I don't think it's the best for functionality or realism, but with a toy, that's not really a huge issue.

There are three minifigures, all with the print jobs for the Paramilitary or Special Ops image that characterestic of this theme. You have one who drives the tank, another who's manning the cannon turren and a third who's manning some smaller, closer range weapons for defense.

But like all of Dino Attack, I really like this too.

If you like big tanks or Dinos you have to buy this set. It's really cool, the dinosaur teeth and eyes light up and when you pull a lever the tank fires a missle; it's cool.

Now for the Cool/Not Cool things about this set.
Missle fires really Far(+3)
T-Rex's Light Up Eyes and Toung(+1)
Looks Cool(+1)
Fun to Play With(+2)
A Lot of the Pieces Can't Be Used For Anything Else(-2)
The Grand Total Is 5/5
Awesome set Must Buy For Anyone Who Likes Dinosaurs.

My little bro, Joe, used to own this set (we used to have the whole Dino Attack series), but he lost interest and broke up all of his, which were everything except for my set, the Fire Hammer. Today I just finished building it back, and I say that it earns 5/5 rather easily. It's a large set, and very impressive, although the treads don't have suspension. The tank aspect to it, with the large cannon, is quite nice. Unfortunately I don't have most of the stickers. Altogether great set, and worth the time I put into it to build back.

Pros:

-Cannon and firing mechanism

-Machine gun on the side

-Big tank look

-T-rex to fight

Cons:

-T-rex is somewhat childish, and extremely easy to put together, consisting of only six large parts

-No suspension, but it actually works fine nonetheless, even on rough terrain

Overall, great set and worth my time. I've added several things to it myself, and it's very capable of being a troop transport.
