We’ve lately seen feathered associates in themes equivalent to Creator 3-in-1 (31136 Exotic Parrot, 31144 Exotic Pink Parrot and so forth), however that is simply one of the vital intricate entries within the LEGO aviary to this point.
Built out in blue and orange – mimicking the widespread kingfisher, which is discovered amongst Eurasia and North Africa – the hen captures the colourful hues, lengthy invoice and brief tail that outline the kingfisher. It’s perched on a department simply above the water, able to hunt, referencing the pose wherein it’s usually shot by photographers. The splash of the waves takes benefit of a newly-transparent modified plate initially designed for 21060 Himeji Castle.

Where most of these classes apply to units from one theme, although, the Fauna Collection is already pollinating throughout a number of themes: on this case, LEGO Art and LEGO Icons.
The brick-built kingfisher might subsequently be the primary in a brand new sequence of brick-built birds, though the jury is out on that for the second. For now, 10331 Kingfisher Bird will arrive on cabinets on February 1 for £44.99 / $49.99 / €49.99, with 834 items within the field.
