The Brick Fan

Recommendation: no 3.5 / 5 by Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

This month's mini build was a 62 piece Spring Tree. It's a simple built tree with eyes and a blue jay sitting on top. The piece count may be misleading since the build is made up of a lot of small pieces. It does come with some nice tan arch pieces but it looks off because the rest of the tree trunk is brown. The base is created with two 2×4 lime plates instead of a single 4×4 plate. I also didn't understand the purpose of the eyes. Overall, it is just a tree with some wacky designs that kids can enjoy.

Recommendation: no 34 / 50 by ResIpsaLoquitur

This was a free model, Lego's gift to your kids, so I'm not going to knock it. It's nice and works for what it is. Consider this a score of practical use versus a review of whether your kids should go to The Lego Store.
