5987 Dino Research Compound

Dino Research Compound is a Dino Island set that was released in 2000.
== Description ==
This is the largest set in the Dino Island sub-theme. It is a three-story research building complete with six Minifigures - Johnny Thunder, Pippin Reed, Dr. Lightning, Mike, Mr. Cunningham, and Baron Von Barron. It also includes four dinosaurs - a T-rex, a Baby T-Rex, a Stegosaurus, and a Pteranodon. This set contains many dinosaur catching tools and vehicles, including a twin-engine aeroplane and a car. The compound is situated on a river.
== Notes ==
* The Compound was featured in the video game LEGO Racers 2 on Dino Island. Mike speaks to the player in front of it.
* The car included with the compound appeared in the video game, LEGO Racers 2. It appeared in the Dino Island circuits as an enemy racer, being driven by the Martian Cassiopeia, but the player also had the option of using it as his or her own. An alternative build of the car shown on the back of the instructions also appears in the game, driven by Baron Rosso.
