TheLunabrick Posted August 7, 2016 Video Review: **The Box** Ook ah ook ook has been ingrained into my brain thanks to LEGO Racers so I just had to get this guy and this set, luckily I also got the box with it when I ordered it online! The box is really neat and simple in a purple color which you don't see too often, with the set on the front, and back. The back shows off some cool alternate builds which is nice. I like the map background for the box which looks cool. Also I really love the Islanders logo on the top right corner of the box! It all looks quite nice and simple with that old LEGO charm. **The Minifig** I'm gonna make a long paragraph short by saying that this is a great minifigure and you should try and get him in your collection! He has simple printed legs showing off a leaf skirt which looks really great! he has a necklace as well as a red cloth belt on this torso which looks great. His head is pretty simple and has a lot of charm, it has white print with a blue outline and red cheeks as well as the simple classic LEGO smile. The helmet/mask he has is unique to him and looks awesome, its sculpted really well and the feather on top just makes it look neat. He also has a simple but cool staff. I really do love this minifigure! **The Set** The set is a simple chair on a small green plate but it looks really nice! The throne has 2 spears with 2 printed shields on them that look great! I love it when we get printed pieces like these, and this set is great for accessories as you get the 2 spears, 2 shields, staff, treasure chest and coins which is a lot for a tiny set. Speaking of the treasure chest, the sets main play feature is that you can lift the seat up revealing the chest which is a nice and really simple play feature that just works really well. There isn't a whole lot to this set but it really does look nice and comes with a lot of good parts and accessories as well so its a great set for what its worth. If you're able to get it then you should try to! Its still not that expensive or hard to get. What do you think of this little set? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Minifig Lecturer Posted August 8, 2016 Good review, thanks. One of the things I particularly liked about this little set was the chance to get hold of 2 spears and 2 shields, both nice pieces and (for me at least back then) not easy to amass a bunch. That said, looking back on it the shield design is a bit weird, would have been better to use a LEGO head. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
