Danger Pack Figure Guide

Stegouros Danger Pack

Stegouros is a small armoured dinosaur from Chile with one of the strangest tails ever found, a flat, bladed weapon unlike any other dinosaur. In Jurassic World Epic Evolution it comes in the Eoraptor vs Stegouros Danger Pack, a two-pack from the first wave in 2024, as a dark olive figure with a yellow-green stripe and a pale tail tip. Here is what the figure looks like, how its tail compares with other armoured dinosaurs, and how to unlock it in the Jurassic World Play App.

Tail Weapon Comparison

Armoured dinosaurs came up with three very different tail weapons. Stegouros has the rarest one.

Weapon checkThe macuahuitl tailStegouros elengassen
Named: 2021Stegosaurus: four long spikes (thagomizer)Ankylosaurus: a heavy bony clubStegouros: a flat frond of bony blades
The end of the Stegouros tail is wrapped in seven pairs of flat, bony plates that join into one wide, fern-shaped weapon. Scientists compared it to the macuahuitl, an Aztec war club edged with blades.

No other dinosaur is known with a tail like it, which is why Stegouros made headlines when it was named.

What Is Danger Pack?

Danger Pack is the smaller, battery-free assortment of Mattel’s Epic Evolution line, the 2024 follow-up to Dino Trackers. The figures have movable joints and a DNA code that unlocks the animal in the Jurassic World Play App, but no sounds or motorised attacks.

Stegouros came in the first Danger Pack wave of 2024 as half of the Eoraptor vs Stegouros two-pack, alongside Poposaurus, Avaceratops and Plesiosaurus.

Is It Worth Buying?

The Eoraptor vs Stegouros pack is good value, two rare species in one box, and Stegouros is one of the newest dinosaurs to get a toy. The tail weapon is simplified, which may bother collectors who know the fossil.

It came out in 2024 in the first Danger Pack wave.

About Stegouros

Stegouros was named in 2021 by Sergio Soto-Acuna and colleagues from a nearly complete skeleton found in 2018 in the Magallanes region of southern Chile. The name means roofed tail.

It lived in the Late Cretaceous, about 72 to 75 million years ago. It was a small armoured dinosaur, about 2 m long.

Stegouros belongs to a group of armoured dinosaurs from the southern continents. Its tail weapon is unique, showing that southern armoured dinosaurs evolved their own way of fighting back.
