About this deal

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. There are three instruction booklets included; two smaller ones for each of the alternative models, and a large one for the main build. I was surprised by the choice of colour on the booklet; the use of the pale tan looks quite insipid and far less enticing than the box artwork. The whole roof detaches to provide access to the ground floor, although I've also removed most of the walls below to show you the inside. An armchair sits with a mug in front of a fire on a decorative floor. 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.

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!)

A cél az, hogy emlékezzünk vagy előre jelezhessük a választásaikat. Ide tartozik például a funkciók használata, elhelyezkedése, viselkedése az oldalon. 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. LEGO have reintroduced a horned helmet, of which you get two in the set, and I think it looks fantastic. Our ginger-bearded warrior is also wearing a new highly-detailed torso print; another breastplate, this time of a woven material, over a green tunic. His orange trousers are nicely colour-matched with his beard! Vikings are a perennial subject in education (at least here in the UK), with every primary school aged child learning about their iconic ships, and I can see this set having a large amount of appeal to both adults and children alike.

When all is said and done, this is a fun display piece as a whole. Although, I can imagine plenty of hours of imaginative play as well. As far as sizing goes, it’s large, but not exceedingly so. Sometimes you build a model like this one and it feels way larger than what’s on the box, but this one seems as-expected. Which is not to say that it’s small, of course!

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. Tartalom személyre szabása Ezek a sütik lehetővé teszik számunkra, hogy az Önről rendelkezésre álló információk alapján tartalmakat és hirdetéseket jelenítsünk meg Önnek, hogy a lehető legjobban ki tudjuk elégíteni az Ön igényeit. Ez legfőképpen ahhoz kapcsolódik, hogy milyen tartalmat tekintett meg, illetve milyen eszközzel lépett be az oldalunkra.

His tail, head, and all four legs can be individually posed, as well as his jaw. The sail doesn't rest on the mast itself at the bottom, but rather on the ropes tethering the mast to the sides of the ship. Attaching the six tethering ropes (two to each side, one to the stern, one to the bow) to the mast was one of the most satisfying parts of the build; they are a perfect tension to hold the mast firmly in place with very little give, and the use of a steering wheel at the top of the mast to attach them to is some nice parts usage.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. 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! Közösségi hálók sütijei Ezek a sütik lehetővé teszik számunkra, hogy kényelmesen összekapcsoljuk Önt a közösségi média profiljával, és például lehetővé teszik, hogy termékeket és szolgáltatásokat osszon meg barátaival és családtagjaival. Nélkülözhetetlen sütik Ezek elengedhetetlenek a weboldal és funkcióinak működéséhez, amelyek használatáról Ön dönt. Nélkülük nem működne a weboldalunk, például nem tudna bejelentkezni saját fiókjába, vagy bevásárlói listákat létrehozni. 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.
