"Jurassic World: Dominion" Masie is a decent enough figure that is appropriately petite when scaled against an adult figure in the same 3.75" scale. Her articulation is more or less standard for humans in this line- ball joint head (movement is limited due to her long hair in front of her chest and down her back), ball hinge shoulders, swivel hinge hips (for lateral movement), ball hinge knees, but she lacks elbow and waist joints like all of the young girl figures in the various "Jurassic" movie based lines due to her thin physique (the cartoon based teen girls have these joints as they have thicker builds). Her outfit is replicated quite well from the early portion of the movie, but for my sci-fi based needs she is a bit to "earthlike", although her outfit does somewhat resemble those worn by the "proto-Rebels" in "Andor" so I may end up keeping her for a diorama. The 2 examples I got both have an odd paint defect in which her brown right eyebrow slightly extends into her blond hair, but otherwise both have excellent paint applications. She comes with a really nicely sculpted satchel and a small, but very thick knife (I forgot to add her accessories during the photo shoot).
The Beta (Velociraptor Blue's baby/clone) is exactly the same as the one from the wave 1 Owen/Beta set so I will not bother reviewing it here.
The real star of the set, for me anyway, is the Lystrosaurus. This canine-like dinosaur only really has one brief scene in "Dominion" (and it has nothing to do with Masie making its inclusion in this set baffling- unless there is some kind of deleted scene with them together) and it is the only representation of this species in the line so far aside from a teeny tiny rubber one in the "Mini Action" blind boxes. I focus on all of the unique species in the line as I do not need any more velociraptors, triceratops, T-Rexes, or any other "main" species since I have a ton of them from various manufacturers over the last 40 years already, so this was a must have for me. The Lystrosaurus has a ball hinge neck and 4 swivel hips, basic articulation that kind of limits its poseability- some lateral motion in the hips would have been nice and maybe an articulated jaw at least. The paint is very well done with no slop or overbleed anywhere on my 2 examples. The figure does suffer a bit from the ugly pull out DNA tab, but it is only visible on the left side of the figure leaving one side unmarred. Some of the species with armored scales hide these tabs really well, but the ones with smoother hides are not able to camouflage them as easily.
Apparently, Mattel cut production on this set way short compared to the other 2 sets in this assortment ("cowboy" Owen w/Parasauralophus and Ian Malcolm w/Velociraptor and 3 mutant locusts) so whatever made it out into the wild in the first shipment is all that were made, making this a very difficult set to get. Many online toy stores have had their pre-orders canceled by Mattel and had to refund their customers. I got very lucky when Amazon had them up a few weeks ago.
