LEGO Ideas The Insect Collection, Fun Gift for Nature Lovers, with Life-Size Blue Morpho Butterfly, Hercules Beetle and Chinese Mantis Display Models, Bug Building Set and Nature Décor, 21342

Very cool display!

This set fits right in with all of my botanical sets so very well! Overall this set is great, it makes a great build for someone that likes to pose and rearrange their sets. I did want to mention I did notice what appears to be a minor mistake in the instructions that would not alter the outcome. In the picture for step 53 in the butterfly instructions, the two inset pictures are switched around. It's easy to tell by the piece orientation. Also, nice use of the pistol element!

A Beautiful & Unique Set!

For having not built a Lego set in 15+ years (I'm 32) and seeing this pop up on my TikTok FYP when it was announced before preorder for VIP Lego members, I just had to stalk this release! At 12:02 am my order was submitted on VIP release day and received it September 9th. By the end of the evening I had built the entire set and loved every second of it! The detail and originality of the bricks were so fun to work with! The size of the finished figures are perfect as well. I was going to set it up in my science lab classroom, but determined my 3-5th graders would mess with it when nobody is in the room, so for now at least have decided to keep it at home. Love this either way! Definitely get this if you're interested! It's a fun and beautiful set! 😍

Excellent build

I love this set and the building techniques used are really cool. I love how each insect is roughly to scale to the real life ones and each display is specific to each one. I definitely love this set and would recommend it to others.

I only knocked of some points for playability because they are better as display pieces and don't offer much as far as playability is concerned.
