| Animal | Right velociraptor head mirroring the left, brow lowered, jaws open with the same white teeth, standing on a painted rock outcrop beside the right orbit |
| Animal | Small pale dinosaur silhouettes and a running raptor figure painted in the mid-upper island area near the blue river |
| Man | Cartoon portrait of a middle-aged man with a wide toothy grin, short dark hair, olive/tan skin, wearing an open khaki shirt over a white tee, holding a butterfly net over his shoulder, printed in flat comic style at mid-left beside a red name-plate |
| Man | Small explorer figure in a yellow pith helmet peering out of the upper-centre cave mouth, only head and helmet visible |

Full-length modern solid-state playfield on a black pinball cabinet, photographed with the backbox off against a black background. The art is a photorealistic, airbrushed jungle-island map: a green-and-yellow relief island with a lagoon and blue river filling the centre, ringed by palms, ferns and jungle. Eighteen small red oval insert labels with white lettering are scattered over the island like map pins, arranged in a rough triangle. Two large snarling velociraptor heads face inward from the lower left and lower right, jaws open with white teeth, mounted beside curved chrome ball guides and two long yellow rubber-tipped flippers. Lower left is a cartoon portrait of a grinning dark-haired man in a khaki shirt holding a bug net; above centre are two cave openings labelled like shelters, a yellow dig-site card and a smiling explorer in a pith helmet. The upper third is crowded with clear plastic ramps, a wireform, an orange translucent saucer, a white jeep-shaped toy and scattered limestone-style sign boards carrying red and black lettering. Colour is dominated by jungle green, the black cabinet and playfield lacquer, chrome silver plastics, and yellow rubber.

A photographed modern solid-state pinball playfield seen at a slight angle, framed by a red metal cabinet rail on the left and bottom with a round chrome lock in the apron. The art is a photorealistic painted jungle-river scene in olive green, tan, brown and grey: a wide sandy river or lagoon runs up the centre, bordered by dark green conifer forest and rocky brown cliffs on both sides, with a hulking grey-green Tyrannosaurus head and open jaws with white teeth filling the lower-right corner, palm fronds fanning above it, and a second dinosaur head emerging from the treeline on the right mid-field. A weathered carved-wood style log or stone plaque across the lower centre reads JURASSIC PARK in chipped dark letters, with SHOOT and AGAIN either side of a round orange sunburst disc. Two yellow rubber-tipped flippers sit at the bottom centre above a black slingshot apron. A yellow 'USE YOUR QR CODE' sign and a blue glowing square screen occupy the lower right; a dense two-column purple-grey INSTRUCTION CARD fills the lower left. The upper half is crowded with chrome wire ramps curving down both sides, a spiral of wire, yellow-glowing pop bumper caps, a bank of round inserts with red rings spelling out a tree motif in the centre of the river, triangular and diamond-shaped inserts, blue and white star-shaped plastics, and an ESCAPE FROM THE ... sign near the upper centre-left.

A photographed electro-mechanical-era styled pinball playfield with a dense jungle-and-river park theme, seen through the glass with a hazy reflection across the upper half. The layout runs from a walled compound at the top (a small grey gatehouse with a dark blue hipped roof, a tall stone wall, a water tower and a billboard) down a waterfall of pale blue water into a wide green valley of winding tan paths, flanked by two enormous orange-brown Tyrannosaurus-like dinosaur heads at the lower left and lower right, jaws open, teeth bared, facing inwards. Scattered over the valley are about fifteen round and oval black-and-white lettered inserts ringed in colour, plus a cluster of translucent teal, yellow, red and orange plastic triangle and arrow ramps/pegs fanning out across the upper middle. A yellow flipper pair sits at the bottom centre in front of a cracked-egg-emblem medallion carrying the block-letter title. Instruction cards, a yellow warning card and a red QR-code card cover the lower deck. Colours are olive and moss green, tan and ochre, orange-brown, and pale watery blue. Art is painted, airbrushed and slightly cartoonish, with hand-inked black outlines.

A painted, airbrushed jungle scene framed by dark tree trunks and dense ferns. A huge brown Tyrannosaurus stands left of centre in profile facing right, jaws open showing rows of yellow teeth and a pink tongue, its small forearm raised. To its right a second, browner and more lightly-built raptor also faces right with mouth agape, one clawed hand lifted. Centre-left, below the dinosaurs, a battered open-top tan and red tour jeep with roll bars, exposed engine and a spare wheel charges through a muddy stream, kicking up dust and spray. Behind, a huge timber park gate with two stone-grey pillars stands open; each pillar bears a flaming torch with orange fire, and white lightning forks across a teal-blue stormy sky. The words JURASSIC PARK in curved yellow-and-red lettering arch across the gate opening. Ferns and banana leaves crowd the bottom edge.

A painted backglass dominated by a huge rearing tyrannosaur-like dinosaur, head thrown back with jaws wide open showing rows of teeth and a pink tongue, one clawed foot raised toward the viewer. A second, smaller greenish-brown raptor head with a yellow eye and a row of small triangular teeth rises at lower left, and a brown chicken-legged dinosaur body with thick scaly legs and a pale belly fills the right side. A dark grey-blue ribbon banner curves diagonally across the middle, lettered WHEN DINOSAURS on the left and THE EARTH on the right in tall red block capitals outlined in white and gold.

Fingerprint: jurassic park: gaping green tyrannosaur head filling upper-left corner mouth open showing individual teeth curling pink tongue, green frilled dinosaur bright red-yellow fan collar peering round palm trunk right, cracked bone-textured cream-gold title lettering, mud-spattered yellow jeep driving straight at viewer between dinosaurs
The single most memorable element is the gaping green tyrannosaur head filling the whole upper-left corner, mouth open wide enough to show individual teeth and a curling pink tongue. Second, the green frilled dinosaur with a bright red-and-yellow fan collar peering round a palm trunk on the right. The cracked, bone-textured cream-and-gold title lettering is unusually literal, looking like eggshell or fossil rather than painted type. Also memorable is the mud-spattered yellow jeep driving straight at the viewer between the two dinosaurs.

A landscape backglass illustration of a jungle dinosaur park. A huge green tyrannosaur head and shoulders fill the upper left, jaws wide open showing rows of yellow teeth and a pink tongue, with a small clawed foreleg. On the right a large green dilophosaur head with a red-and-yellow fanned neck frill and yellow sclera glares out from behind a brown palm trunk; a smaller open-jawed dinosaur stands in the mid background. A mud-splattered yellow open-top jeep, red roll bar and spare wheel, charges forward through the centre, kicking up dust and water. Two pterodactyls fly in the blue sky upper right, with a further one near the treeline. The scene is framed by dark green banana leaves, ferns, hanging moss and vine-draped trees, with misty teal jungle hills behind. Across the lower third the title reads JURASSIC PARK in huge bone-coloured block capitals cracked and veined like dinosaur eggshell, outlined in orange-gold and then dark brown. Bottom right carries a red, white and black Stern pinball logo. Palette is dominated by jungle greens, black shadow, bone cream and orange-gold.
