    Sorry, I couldn’t resist this joke review, and this actually took longer than anticipated!

    This is an all right set – the buildable LEGO Groot is quite cute, and has plenty of articulation. As you can see from the photos, you can pose it in all sorts of ways, and the expressive face is very endearing.

    It’s not without faults – I didn’t like the heavy reliance of stickers. The only sticker I like is the plaque, which is the inspiration behind this review.

    Some printed elements would be nice, especially as a lot of the organic patterns are repeated, and you don’t need that many variations.

    The hip joints are quite rigid, and what I found worked best was to remove the grey Technic stoppers from each end, to give it a bit more articulation, so that Groot’s thighs can swivel outwards.

    His head is also quite large and heavy, and depending on how you post it, can often tip over. The leave elements were also quite fiddly, and I found them popping out as I was posing Groot, but not a deal breaker.

    That said, it’s a fun set, and you’ll get plenty of play with it, especially if you display it somewhere that you can easily access, such as your work/office desk.

    Bit pricey, but it’s a very playable set that you’ll get plenty of mileage of, and a great addition to LEGO’s Botanical Collection!

      Nicely played. I was sure it wouldn’t go past the first paragraph but you pulled it off very well.

Today is the 15th and final day of the Lunar New Y Today is the 15th and final day of the Lunar New Year, also known as Chap Goh Mei (15th night in the Hokkien dialect), Yuan Xiao Jie, Chinese Valentine's Day or the  Lantern Festival! 🏮

It marks the end of the Lunar New Year celebrations, and is celebrated in a myriad of ways, such as eating tangyuan (glutinous rice balls) over dinner, and visiting temples to pray good fortune for the coming year.

The celebration was famously depicted in 80107 Spring Lantern Festival, designed by @justinramsden and released in 2020.

Here's my Classic Space take on Chap Goh Mei as we conclude the Lunar New Year festivities!

Happy Chap Goh Mei to everyone celebrating!

Mia is all grown up now! Here's a comparison of Mia is all grown up now! 

Here's a comparison of Mia, from her very first minidoll on the left (from 3188 Heartlake Vet), to her last appearance as a teenager in 41717 Mia's Wildlife Rescue, and on the right, as an adult in 41730 Autumn's House!

She's now a mum to Autumn, and it's kinda surreal seeing her grow like this.

FYI: LEGO Friends had a bit of a redesign in 2018, which is why Mia's appearance changed slightly.

For my next @LEGO Friends review, here's a look at For my next @LEGO Friends review, here's a look at 41730 Autumn's House, which features Autumn and Mia's home, a delightfully rustic ranch-style home!

It blends the old and new, with Autumn and a now grown-up Mia, and amazingly, has kept the same US$69.99 price-point as all the other Friends main character houses. 

Who knew that Friends character homes were inflation-proof?

Great value-packed set overall, and you can read my full review on the blog via link in bio!

Special thanks to LEGO for sending this review set over!
