LEGO® Reindeer

Description

A seasonal piece to display

This reindeer is built for the Christmas table, a windowsill or a shelf. It was released in 2019 and belongs to the seasonal sets that many people unpack every December. At 77 pieces it can be finished in a reasonable time, even together with children. There is no minifigure in the box. The animal is the only star here and holds its own without any extra characters. Building it makes a calm afternoon project, especially during Advent.

A familiar colour scheme

Black, white, reddish brown and red define the set. Reddish brown forms the body, as you would expect from a reindeer, white and black add detail, and red brings in the festive touch. Interestingly, the 77 pieces come from 23 different part types. For such a small model that is a fair amount of variety, and it suggests the shape comes from specialised elements rather than only from standard bricks.

Made for the shelf, not the toy box

A reindeer this size is more of a decoration than an everyday toy. It needs little space and is easy to pack away once the season is over. If you collect several small Christmas models, you can arrange them together as a little winter scene. A set like this also works as a gift, perhaps tucked in with a card or handed over to a friend who enjoys building as a hobby. It looks good beside other decorations, such as candles or a small tree.

Checking and reusing the parts

The complete parts list below shows all 77 pieces with colour and quantity. That is useful if you rebuild the model years later and something has gone missing. The “What can I build?” tool also shows what else you could assemble from your own bricks. Because many of the pieces come in common colours, they tend to be easy to reuse in other projects once the festive season has passed.
