At Christmas I bought the Warlord Games Spec Ops deal which, of course, has nothing to do with Jurassic Park I hear you say.

But .....

Enter 6-year-old grandson Aiden for a sleep-over last night.  He saw the just painted but not quite finished buildings and compound from the set and suddenly it became a Jurassic Park base.

So last night once he was asleep Grandad sorted out a couple of cheap diecast WW2 jeeps and a helicopter.  I sat up until about 1am giving them fairly basic but recognisable paint jobs - grey and red for the jeeps and blue and white for the helo. 

Wot no pictures?  Yep no pictures as they are "in play" just now battling Triceratops, T-Rex and Raptors. 

So what do I need?  Jurassic Park stickers and decals to make signs and to put on the vehicles.  The jeeps I have are quite small and have no doors.  That said, they will be played with on the floor so the decal will go on the bonnet. 

Any sources out there that you know of?   

And ideas for 28mm figures and games set in Jurassic Park.

figures, try Northstar, in the copplestone and pulp areas, HLBS also used to do dinos ( not certain if they still do or they went to northstar)   { im using UK based suppliers as those are who I know}  http://www.northstarfigures.com/         and   http://www.hlbs.co.uk/   
the things you learn, give your mind the wings to fly, and the chains to hold yourself steady
take off and nuke the site form orbit, nope, time for the real thing, CAM and gridfire, call special circumstances. 
wow, its like freefalling into the Geofront

Many thanks for the ideas - I'm looking at the pulp area but most are a bit early though I see a few Artizan ones that might be useful or convert.  Certainly some Copplestone figures are useful.  We have lots of dinos in plastic and metal - HLBS, Copplestone some others and a really old Asgard small T-Rex.

Also looking at the plastic Warlord Games survivors as I have some still on the sprues.

Got a colour printer?
Print multiple copies of this;

or a similar one found via google onto a sheet of address labels.  Cut them out and stick them where you will.
Not as good a finish as decals but good enough for some serious play while you source something better.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.
