LEGO® Gurggle

Description

A green creature to snap together

Gurggle belongs to the 2015 wave of Mixels: small imaginary creatures made from a few bricks and deliberately a little odd to look at. With 66 pieces the build is over quickly, which suits children and anyone who wants something small to do between bigger projects. You do not need a large table, and the instructions are simple enough that the fun lies more in rebuilding than in the first assembly. It also means Gurggle fits into a drawer or a travel bag, in case you fancy snapping a few bricks together on the move.

Three greens and a glow

Lime, green and trans-neon green dominate the colour list, with black as a counterpoint. The transparent neon green adds a glowing accent that you rarely find in other sets. Of the 66 pieces only 27 are different part types, which is fairly low, so several elements appear more than once. That helps when you rebuild, because you can easily make matching limbs and decorations on both sides of a creature. The colours are evenly balanced too, so no single shade overwhelms the figure and the neon accent stands out nicely.

Swap, mix, reinvent

The appeal of the range is in the combining. Arms, legs and heads are shaped so they can be exchanged between figures, and that creates new creatures that appear in no instruction book. Gurggle works especially well here because the greens sit comfortably next to many other colours. There is no minifigure, and on a shelf the finished figure looks like a small sculpture. In play you can pull the parts apart in seconds and put the figure back together as a completely different creature.

Parts list and what comes next

You will find the complete list of all 66 pieces further down this page. If you own several sets, the “What can I build?” tool shows which extra models your bricks can make. The green and neon green parts are well suited to plants, slime, aliens or glowing crystals in your own landscapes and scenes. With a large collection, a quick check shows whether the figure can find further use before it disappears into a box.
