Hello friends, it's time to introduce the Good Friends set again today. We always said before that the good friends series has always had the title of Lego's daughter," with rich themes, bright colors, clever design, and whenever players are not satisfied with the design of a certain theme, they will sigh, and the designer is transferred to the good friend department. This time we introduced this set, the food carnival number 41701, is a very thoughtful work, where there are ideas, just let's take a look at it.
The outer box of the set looks similar to this year's LEGO Friends series, without the previous five-person group headshots, replaced by a close-up of a little girl in the upper right corner, which is a feature of the set, where is the special, a moment to say. The front is printed with detailed renderings of the product set, which looks quite rich, and the back is printed with the introduction of the main part of the food truck and the various play nodes. How's it going, is it heartwarming?
There are four manuals, printed separately according to the content, which is a very common operation of Lego, the only place that feels inferior to the city group is that the covers of the four manuals are the same, and when you choose, you need to turn over the inside to see, unlike the city group, each cover is related to the content.
Returning to the brick review, this time the set offers three figures, from gender to skin tone, which are in line with the consistent proposition of the LEGO Friends series.
Looking from left to right, first of all, Emma, one of the protagonists of the fivesome, when we introduced other good friends to the new product, we introduced other protagonists to change their new hairstyles, and this time Emma is no exception, the original black long straight has become today's pill head. Seeing that several protagonists have changed their hairstyles, the author is a bit looking forward to what the new animation will look like. Emma wears a gray vest over a lining with a seagull motif.
The figure in the middle is Sebastian, a male, brown-skinned man who had appeared previously in the 41702 Friendship Houseboat. Like the Friendship Houseboat, she has short, blonde curly hair with a pinch of bangs, glasses, and a blue coat with yellow underwear. It has to be said here that Sebastian's role is to bring balance, neutrality and skin tone to the dolls of the Good Friends series. After all, as a male figure, it is brown-skinned again, just to add a little transition to the good friend series where women and white skin are the majority.
The third figure is Nandy, a woman, whose complexion should be known to be black, needless to say. His hair is a new explosive head style launched this year, and he also wears a yellow headband and a short skirt with one-shoulder straps. I always felt that sooner or later this look was prepared for another good friend character, Andrea.
In addition to the dolls, the suit also provides a brown kitten, which has also appeared in the 41704 changeable street scene. And this set is called the Food Carnival, naturally everyone is equipped with chopsticks, forks and other tableware. As for why Sebastian is empty-handed, as long as he doesn't eat hot pot, empty-handed.
Here again it hurts Sebastian, originally the three figures should be the same height, but the hairstyle makes Sebastian look shorter than the other two, and once again shows that the human hairstyle can change the visual effect of height.
On the topic of dolls, one of the characteristics of the general LEGO doll is that it can print facial expressions on both sides, and two expressions for a doll can increase the diversity and playability of the doll. Due to the particularity of the face, the facial features are materialized, resulting in asymmetry between the front and back of the face, so it is impossible to achieve double-sided printing.
However, as long as the thinking does not slip downhill, there are always more ways than difficulties. This is not, this set in order to make the good friend doll can have more expressions, the use of matching multiple faces of the method, since there is no way to achieve two expressions on one face, then with a few more faces on the line? The method is a good way, but looking at this pile of human dolls, it is like the first actual inspection, cold and a little frightened.
Next up is this fast food truck, the shape is very cute, the color is also consistently bright. The red front, the green rear chassis and the yellow carriage are not obtrusive at all. The design of the bumper forward is praised, which truly reflects the role of the bumper. There are no doors at the front of the car, but pedals are provided for boarding. The roof has a signature model of a rotating taco, a burrito, and the facial features with stickers look very cute and are very good as a food sign.
Looking at the front, you can see that the body is designed for eight blocks wide, and like the mobile crane in the previous city group, it uses two four-block transparent pieces to form a complete large window front glass. The roof is a curved roof composed of green, pink and white cycles, breaking the monotony of a single color in the past.
Open the roof to see a steering wheel on the left side, the same as a regular eight-compartment car, but the surprise is that there is a gear lever in the middle. I don't have many LEGO cars on hand, and this is the first time I've seen a LEGO car with a gear lever. I don't know if friends have other vehicle information with gear levers, welcome to leave a message to me.
At the back, you can see the wide counter window on the carriage, the three-color cycle awning like the front of the car, and the curved flue at the rear. There is a sign advertisement hanging next to the counter, the main theme is naturally the signature taco, chicken rolls and muffins, are common Mexican specialties, it seems that this car focuses on Mexican dishes. The counter is wide enough to hold ketchup, bowls and plates with muffins and guacamole. Next to the flue is a large transparent piece, you can easily see the interior of the carriage, transparent management operation, but also increase the lighting of the carriage.
If it is only to this point, this carriage is no different from other similar cars in terms of styling, and the next is the surprise. The carriage can be opened in half by hinge, and the interior is clear at a glance. We can see through the open carriage that there is a stove and a board inside, a pan on the stove, and a wire wiper on the board. The beveled grille parts that are usually used on the vehicle are used to simulate the wire scraper here, which is still very creative. There was also a locker inside the carriage, which was supposed to be coolable, with radishes and sour cucumbers inside, and red peppers hanging outside.
The LEGO City Group has also withdrawn from a similar fast food truck before, the pizza vending car numbered 60150, the author also likes it, there is a little bit of Jackie Chan movie "Fast Food Truck" feeling. But after seeing this good friend's fast food truck, compared, from the size, details to the color, I think it is better than the city group of vehicles, my words are finished, who is in favor of who opposes?
Then look at the small props provided by the scene, one is a cactus signboard, and the other is a fruit and vegetable sale box. The sale box has a lot of suits, much the same, nothing to say, the cactus sign is very creative, a few curved round pipe fittings are set up into a funny and interesting cactus shape, the author thinks that if you paste the pair of eye expressions may be better. On the chest of the cactus hung a sign with several foods printed on it, all of which were involved in the set, including taco, juice and sushi, which taco had already introduced in the food truck, so the rest should be related to juice and sushi.
Let's first take a look at the juice stalls, probably because of the variety of colors, although it feels that there are few details, but the colors are rich and the sense of volume is very strong. Intuitively, it is an open counter, and from top to bottom you can see a huge carrot signboard, and underneath it is a smooth awning, arranged by curved surfaces of blue, yellow and pink. Next up is the counter, with a sign on the left with a pattern of orange juice, watermelon juice and strawberry juice, and on the right is the finished product, three drinks, which should be lemonade, orange juice and grape juice. Further down, you can see two seats on the lawn, the seats are orange and lemon slices, which is very suitable. In addition, there are flower pots and trash cans on both sides of the scene, reflecting the details of the designer's control.
Turn to the back, you can see the details of the front that are not easy to find, on the left is a juicer, the business is very good, the machine is also turning non-stop, there is a cash register on the right, and this side is also not idle. There are also clips on the walls on both sides, which can be used to fix tableware or something.
Another stall is also very graphic, the overall look has a strong Japanese style in both color and shape, and the signature on the top is a white patterned sea bowl with red chopsticks under the pink cherry blossoms. At the head of the door are the Japanese warm curtains and lanterns common in Japanese dramas and Japanese manga. The support of the stall is a light brown bamboo knot shape, the white table is lined with sake and Japanese sauce, and two seats are also placed in the open space in front, and the wooden stake design is simple and idyllic. The stalls are also flanked by various decorations, with green bamboo knots on one side, implying that business is high, the same flower beds on the other, and a Japanese flag with advertisements on the right.
At the back of the stall, you can see the cash register, and there are still fish to be cooked on the side of the board, and it seems that this time it is sashimi. The walls on both sides are also designed with clamps, with a fish knife inserted in each of them, and I am a sushi seller, so it is not too much to insert two knives with me.
The last thing to introduce is an open-air dining table, the shape is still quite rich, the table is a wooden structure, made of wooden planks, filled with sushi, burritos and a large bowl of ramen, the table on both sides in addition to the flower bed there are two street lamps, hanging lanterns and advertising signs. There is also a small bowl in the corner of the table, which is of course for the cute kittens.
"Come, Sebastian, try this." Emma took out a chili pepper and stuffed it in a burrito with a bad smile for Sebastian to taste, poor Sebastian was defenseless, he took a bite, it felt like he was about to cry out, and Nandy smiled and closed his mouth. Words Emma you are so naughty, your family Ethan knows?
Overall, this set is still very rich in content, with excellent vehicles, vivid scenes, rich details, and replaceable character faces, all of which add color to the playfulness of this suit. Cars with shifters, raised bumpers, and various ingredients and dishes that try their best to restore, and also leave a place for kittens, fully reflect the authors' intentions for the work.
The only thing that I feel is that there are too few dolls in this set, three stalls and a car, only with three dolls, it is really not enough to play. Players with other good friends suits are advised to take out the dolls in the suit to play.
Otherwise, the set is called Gourmet Carnival, number 41701 and contains 592 pieces of parts, including three figures. The official price is 499 yuan, if you buy it online, you can get it for more than 300. The author still recommends such a food set, like the friends of the good friends series and the Disney princess series naturally needless to say, even if other players who are not cold to the good friends series of dolls, you can also kill the meat to collect the car, and the city group is still good.
Well, this time here, please friends continue to pay attention to our follow-up, there are more new products waiting for you.
I'm HB Jun, more exciting, stay tuned for Lego Warehouse bad snow and Jim's World.
