In the year 2010, strange mutant dinosaurs appear, and Shadow, Digger, Specs, and Viper must stop the dinos before it's too late! But these dinosaurs have abilities beyond what Digger thinks. Will the DINO ATTACK team slay the dinos? Or will the world once again fall into ruin? The team utilize several powerful vehicles like the T-1 Typhoon attack helicopter, the Iron Predator assault tank, and the Fire Hammer humvee.European Version
The European DINO Attack sets are slightly different from their US counterparts. These sets are called DINO 2010, take place after the previous sets mentioned, and instead of large weapons, the sets are given grappling hooks and large cages for capturing Mutant Dinos.

Characters
- Shadow is the most driven member of the team. His home city was devastated in the 1st dino attack, and although he survived, his neighborhood was ruined. He has been in every international hot spot, preferring to use the Sonic Screamer first and worry about the dino's intentions later, causing him to fight a lot with Specs.
- Digger, a famous paleontologist, goes where no dinosaur hunter ever will and goes deeper than others in his search for bones. His knowledge of dinos and aim with his Cosmotronic Ray make him a valuable addition to the team, despite looking for peril. In some versions of the story he's told to do this by the TLF (True LEGO Fan) of the time he is leader of the sqaud

- Viper is no scientist and was drafted onto the team. Hence he always calls the dinos scales. He thinks the best way to beat a dino is use what its name means against it. He gets along well with the rest of the team and "Strike first, strike fast, and get away clean" is his motto.
