Kingdoms Advent: Day 22
Dec22
Calendar Ends in 3….
Day Twenty Two: Owl in Tree
Is an Owl really a “Kingdoms” sort of creature? I suppose it’s better than the pig, but once again it feels like LEGO is reaching – filling the non-minifigure days of this calendar with whatever parts they happened to have lying about.
I’m also being generous calling this a “tree”. It’s more of a “branch” or a “Charlie Brown Christmas” holiday cameo.
I’d give this higher points if they had included one of the cool new Owl upgrades from the latest Harry Potter sets. Those guys have better sculpts, printed features, and a ton more personality. I suppose licensing prevented their inclusion, though.
Pity.
Eat it, owl! And none of those pellets, neither!
Then again, I only have one owl. I’ll wait for Diagon Alley, methinks.
Wow. Other than Hedwig there, this set is meh. I already have about three black owls.
It’s better than 08’s city advent’s “tree”
and by tree, I mean (and bear with me as I don’t know the official names for these pieces” One of those tall pieces that is 5 bricks high and one stud thick and brown, with one of those green foliage pieces like in this set on top of it, on a green baseplate, with a cat in it. That’s a grand total of four pieces, and the build made this set look like the work of a master.
