Creative Adventures with LEGO Set 76970-1 – Baby Dinosaur Dolores: Aquilops Alternative Builds


LEGO Set 76970-1 – Baby Dinosaur Dolores: Aquilops is one of those charming small sets that immediately sparks the imagination. While it may appear simple at first glance, its compact size and unique Jurassic World theme offer surprising creative flexibility. With only a handful of pieces, you might expect to build just a cute little dino—but in the hands of skilled builders, this set becomes a playground for storytelling, whimsy, and pop culture crossovers.

What makes small sets like this so appealing is their challenge: how can one stretch a limited part inventory into something new and exciting? Builders from the LEGO MOC (My Own Creation) community have accepted that challenge with inspiring results. From playful creatures to recognizable characters from films, this set has proven that creativity doesn’t need thousands of parts—just a fresh perspective.

If you’ve got this adorable Aquilops in your collection, you don’t have to stop with the official model. Thanks to Rebrickable’s talented MOC designers, you can reimagine your set into something wildly different, whether it’s a sci-fi mashup or a nostalgic tribute. Below are two brilliant examples of alternative builds using only the parts from set 76970.
