Unboxing & Developing – LEGO 80024 Monkie Kid: The Legendary Flower Fruit Mountain Set

We have a different LEGO unboxing on our palms, all the way from the West – Journey to the West that is! The Legendary Flower Fruit Mountain LEGO set is encouraged from well known Chinese mythology, featuring eight personas of Monkey King Sunshine Wukong (孫悟空).

This gigantic established comprises 1,949 pieces, which results in a few detachable components that variety the Famous Mountain, exactly where Sunlight Wukong was born. This set will not only be a long and pleasurable build, but the set is also loaded with small surprises that will make it even additional pleasant to play with right after finishing it. 

The 8 minifigures portray Monkie Kid, Evil, Macaque, Brother and Sister Monkey, and four variations of Solar Wukong (Infant, Typical, Apprentice, and Struggle), presenting a vast wide variety of decisions for little ones to roleplay the stories of the novel. 

The first section of the monkey mountains characteristics a staircase/ladder up the mountains alongside with a boulder in the clouds. These are not just the regular rectangular pieces stacked up although, as the stairwell is built with plenty of curved parts to give the space a additional organic seem, alongside with the ladder by itself being attached by clips for a exceptional angle. With a drive and pull mechanism, the unsuspecting boulder can be cracked on by Sunlight Wukong himself.

This initially element leads to the primary section of this grand established. An abundant array of character surrounds the majestic waterfall that centres the overall board, along with a majestic white-winged fowl resting on the summit of the mountain. Precise to the novel, a tablet, carved by Sun Wukong rests at the mid-section of the waterfall, reads 花果山福地、水帘洞洞天, which usually means “Happy land of the mountain of bouquets and fruit, cave heaven of the h2o curtain”. That’s ideal – the established takes advantage of genuine Chinese words and phrases, which is rather neat.

D-I-Y supplied stickers to spruce up the waterfall with drinking water splashes and rocks peeking out from the stream, alongside with vines on the walls. The water is not just a pretty centerpiece although, a hidden latch at the bottom of the mountain divides the drinking water to expose a secret opening to a cave. 

The novel called this hidden haven the Shulian Cave, a focused area for monkeys to prepare and relaxation. The full cave stretches all through the 3 components of the established as perfectly, alongside with a classy teal spiral staircase foremost up to the second level of the cave.
