Funny Octopus Ride

The Funny Octopus Ride 41373 brings a fairground attraction into the LEGO® Friends range, built around a spinning octopus ride rather than a house or shop. It comes with 324 pieces and 2 minifigures, enough for both riders and staff at the attraction. With 138 unique parts, the model packs in more detail than its piece count might suggest.

Description

A ride, not a building

Unlike the cafés and houses that make up much of the Friends range, this set is built around motion: the octopus arms turn once minifigures are seated, giving the finished model an active role in play rather than a static one. That distinction matters for how it gets used day to day, since a moving ride invites repeated play in a way a fixed building does not. With 2 minifigures included, kids can act out both the queue and the ride itself.

Piece count versus detail

138 unique parts across 324 total pieces is a high ratio for a set this size, which points to a lot of small, varied details rather than large flat sections repeated across the model. That shows up during the build too, with more variety step to step than sets built from a handful of repeated elements. For a child building independently, that is a reasonable balance between challenge and a manageable overall size, typically finished in one or two sittings.

White, pink, yellow and black

White, dark pink, yellow and black form the colour scheme, a bright, playful mix that fits the fairground setting and stands apart from the more muted palettes used elsewhere in the LEGO® catalogue. The parts list on this page shows exactly how many pieces come in each colour, useful for anyone hunting a specific replacement piece or simply curious about the colour balance before building. The pink and yellow tones in particular make good donor pieces for other fairground-themed builds.

Part of a wider fairground scene

Ride sets like this one are usually designed to sit alongside other fairground models in the Friends range, so the 138 unique parts listed on this page are also worth checking if you are planning conversions or additions to a bigger scene. Builders assembling a full amusement park layout can use the colour and part breakdown here to match pieces across several sets rather than guessing what is compatible.
