Here is our quick review of the upcoming Gift With purchase 40683 Flower Trellis Display from LEGO.
Box Experience
LEGO went with a lavender themed box with push tabs to make it easier to rip open the box and start building.
Box Contents
There are 5 packs of elements, 4 loose elements and an instruction booklet
The Build
There are some intermediate techniques used for this build in order to achieve a very stable right angled build. In one instance you will even see LEGO plate elements rested perpendicularly on studs!
The vines are build on the main trellis display first while the flowers are filled in later
The back of the build allows us to hang the final build if we so wish but stands upright perfectly fine by itself. A vine is even aligned pretty much perfectly to cover up the nail if you do wish to hang it up.
Finished Build
The final build shows off the set of three spring blooming flowers set supported by a trellis with a wicker base. Yellow, pink and green dominates the colour pallete.
Summary
We think LEGO designers have made another captivating small botanical display. One that can be easily placed in an office cubicle or table top. The flower builds itself are mostly stable with the buds just a tad bit knock-off-able if you happen to brush against it.
