I have a pile of children.

I'm going to have to save this for the best of 2024. Just saying.

The concept of one of Lego's botanical flower sets opening up into Isabela's room is just *chef's kiss*

Give that designer a raise

Those pieces were used as eyes for a species of Bionicle monsters called Bohroks.

I mean, I didn't get it either. I never really got into Bionicle.

I have a few of the kits, mostly bought on clearance. But the fiction makes Kingdom Hearts look coherent.

I never even attempted to understand the fiction. I took one look at it and noped out, loved the figures though. Great line.

Love the flower/house concept. I have some of the regular flower ones in a vase. Don't have to worry about them dying, and the cat doesn't try to eat it. (Just have to be careful about pieces falling off, she will attack/steal those).

I don't usually do much with their botanicals, just not my thing, but man I was in love with this set. The shaping of the basket with the weaving and how well it rounds out is just exquisite. The number of check marks this set has for my specific Lego loves is wild.

Encanto ✓
Isabela ✓
House/room closes up ✓
Amazing shape ✓
Good colors ✓
Fun design and style ✓
Great price to piece cost (6¢ a piece!) ✓

Honestly I thought it would be hard for any Lego set to get into my top 5 for the year with the immaculate City space sets that came out in January, but this may be my current #1.

You'll have to tell me if you get any and what you think. I'm a HUGE fan of the new look, but I know some old school fans think it's too sanitized/modern looking.

To me this feels like we're seeing the stage between grounded/real world space sets and the original futuristic setting.

forgot I have a new furnace to pay for so I didn't go ... the sets do look fun

Hello new favorite Scorponok toy.

 

[Caldwin]
