Description
Black with a light accent
The cat uses just two colours, black and light bluish grey, and gets by with 12 different elements. The result is a simple, instantly recognisable animal that builds in a few minutes. There is no minifigure, so the model stands on its own and makes a small eye-catcher for a shelf or desk. Since only a few bricks are used, the model also works as a first building task for children who like playing with animals.
From the monthly model series
The monthly mini models were small building events in the Brand Store and were each available for a short time only. The parts can be reused in other animal builds. The parts list on this page and the “What can I build?” tool help you find new ideas. If you own several monthly models from 2012, you can line them up and put together a small animal family or a farmyard.
