John Hammond with Gates

Released as part of the Funko Pop! Town line, this figure captures the iconic moment from the 1993 film Jurassic Park where John Hammond introduces the park's entrance. The set serves as a tribute to the late Richard Attenborough’s portrayal of the visionary, yet tragically optimistic, creator of the dinosaur theme park. It was designed to evoke a sense of nostalgia for the film's opening act, balancing the whimsical aesthetic of Funko with the grandeur of the park's heavy iron gates.

The design team focused on the specific visual cues of the film, pairing a stylized Hammond figure in his signature white linen attire with a miniaturized, intricately detailed rendering of the Jurassic Park gate. As part of the Pop! Town series, the set was intended to offer collectors a diorama-style display piece rather than a standalone character figure. Upon its release, it was well-received by fans of the franchise who appreciated the effort to contextualize the character with his most recognizable piece of architecture.
