LEGO® Frog

Description

A little animal for in between

The frog comes from a series of monthly mini build events at LEGO® Brand Stores, in which one small model was made each time. It is accordingly compact: 60 pieces are enough to capture the typical frog shape with legs and head. The build takes only a short while, so the model suits an afternoon with children just as well as a quick break while working on bigger projects. Even without prior experience the build works, as long as you follow the instructions step by step.

Lime, orange and white

On colour, the frog does not hold back: lime green forms the main surfaces, orange adds eye-catching accents, and white plus a classic green complete the picture. It looks bold and friendly, more of a cartoon animal than a lifelike frog. Lime in particular is uncommon in many sets, so the parts list is worth a look if you are searching for pieces in this shade for your own models. Together with the white around the eyes this creates a clear contrast that defines the face.

23 part types, little repetition

With 60 pieces and 23 part types, the shapes repeat only moderately. The mix of plates, slopes and special parts shows how much can be formed from few bricks when you plan well. If you like designing small animals yourself, you can study the construction here and transfer it to your own creatures, perhaps using parts from your own collection that you do not have to buy specially. That makes the model a good template if you later want to try variations in other colours.

Collecting and reusing

As part of a special promotion, the frog is mainly appealing to collectors of the mini models. On this page you can see the complete list of all parts. With What Can I Build? you can find out which other models your stock will make, in case you have taken the frog apart and want to use the bricks again in other builds, for instance for animals or landscapes. That way a small collectable gets a second life in your box.
