I guess the ebay prices on vegetation will be soaring when these come out. I
had bought a BUNCH for Amazon, and these are going to require lots more
vegetation. I think some raised base plates (I'm thinking the 6278 set here)
would add a nice touch as well.

I think that the scientists from the new space sets would fit the bill for
genetics researchers. Some of the Wild West minifig elements along with
Adventurer elements might work for dino wranglers. Beyond that what did you
have in mind?

I don't know about that. The 5920 car would look good pulling out of the Lost
Island Hotel. ;-)
