About this deal

Analitikai sütik Ezek az Ön tevékenységeinek nyomon követésére szolgálnak adatelemzés céljából, mint például a reklámozás hatékonyságának értékelése, személyre szabott tartalom felajánlása./span> Finally, let’s take a look at those minifigures! Unlike the original theme, which was almost exclusively comprised of distinctly male characters, this set has some diversity! There are four figs, two men and two women. Let’s meet them, from left to right. The range of articulation may seem a lot, but if you want the model to still be able to stand up, you are limited to just a couple of poses. In fact, this is the only other pose I was able to get to stand unaided, which is clearly not very realistic for a large wolf!

You can also see clearly in these side photos how the sail hangs from the mast boom and rests gently on the tension ropes. The alternative models are quite nice, but it's the main build that really stands out with its attention-grabbing design, multitude of play features, and the general feeling of nostalgia it evokes for the earlier short-lived Vikings line. The construction of the longship itself employs a lot of SNOT techniques to make the bow and stern of the keel, with the usual method of using bright colours internally to keep the build interesting and provide easier orientation of the model until they're eventually covered up. The figurehead at the prow of the boat is a fearsome dragon (believed by the Vikings to protect them against the evil spirits on the hostile land they were sailing to conquer), and mirrored nicely at the stern with a similarly elaborate carving.

A cél az, hogy emlékezzünk vagy előre jelezhessük a választásaikat. Ide tartozik például a funkciók használata, elhelyezkedése, viselkedése az oldalon. Finally, Fenris himself is constructed, making liberal use of the various joints from the serpent combined with parts of the hull. His tail, head, and all four legs can be individually posed, as well as his jaw. One thing obviously missing from this longboat are the oars, making a getaway from the serpent far less likely to happen. Another thing missing is all the printed elements, but if you didn’t know, you wouldn’t miss them.

I think what’s also really exciting about this Creator 3-in-1 set, is that if you have the budget, you can actually buy 2 or 3, and assemble a really neat Viking scene, as the longship, Viking Hall, and Fenrir all look amazingly well together. Especially smaller Castle set could work as castle expansion kit with the alternate builds, 2 figures in a medium set is reasonable to ask. As befitting a quartet of Viking warriors aboard a longship, they're each equipped with vicious-looking weapons; a single- and double-headed axe, a spear, and a sword. The pitched roof hinges open, inside which are four other shields attached in the rafters of the building. This part of the build is somewhat busy and a little bit of a mess, however. The resulting model is one of a fearsome serpent, head and tail rearing into the air, with an impressive amount of articulation. Every joint in the tail can move, providing a large number of poses. However, I was slightly disappointed to see that the foremost section of the serpents body, from the floor to the base of the head, is fixed in place.

Details

Four minifigures are included, two male and two female. Right off the bat I'm going to try and head off some of the inevitable comments: yes, Viking helmets most likely didn't actually sport horns, but this is a play set designed around the mythical idea of Vikings, rather than factual reality, so I think we can let this one slide! I am also sure there are other factual inaccuracies that I won't point out in this review.

The teal Serpent looks fantastic, and I love that they’ve also included 4 minifigures, some of the most detailed minifigures we’ve ever seen in a Creator 3-in-1 set. I especially love the Viking Woman’s winged helm. The way the Vikings stored their shields on the sides of their ships while travelling is an iconic image, and the set doesn't disappoint. There are four shields attached to either side, each with a different pattern, presumably unique to the Viking that wields it. They can easily be detached and held in the hand of one of the minifigures, although there are twice as many shields as figures included.However, I think the designer has done a pretty decent job of capturing the essence of the beast, and its size is clearly evident next to the minifigures (only one shield is provided for the four of them, this time!) Embark on a journey of creativity with LEGO® Creator sets. Designed for both children and adults, these sets offer a wealth of creative possibilities. LEGO Creator Expert sets cater to adult fans, taking them on thrilling adventures like exploring the Haunted House or reliving classic moments with the Ghostbusters ECTO-1 model car. For space enthusiasts, there's even a captivating model of the iconic Space Shuttle Discovery. The tree is a tall, thin, pine tree, mostly made from the mast of the longship and the roof of the dining area (I am forever in awe of the designer's ability to create three usable—if not downright good—models from one set of parts). There's a small area for a campfire beneath, although it is somewhat of a mismash of colours.
