The first couple of bags lets you build the base of the trellis with the wicker basket detailing using slope pieces.

Next up, there are some tan grid plates used for the backdrop of the trellis. There are some black plates with pins spread out on the grid for the plants later on.

The first set of plants are the vines that uses mostly Technic parts and they attach to the plates. There’s also some flowers on the bottom left that are showing some buds.

To the top right are a couple of lavendar and purple flowers that have a pinwheel design to them. Lastly, there’s a large yellow flower on the top left and it uses two different shades of yellow parts which is somewhat harder to see in the instructions.

The back of the trellis has a wall hanger piece that allows you to mount it if you desire.

Overall the LEGO Flower Trellis Display (40683) is a fun little spring set that you can display with the Botanical Collection even though it’s not labeled as one. I don’t really have any negatives on it besides the high price requirement to be able to get it. I’ve said it … Continue

LEGO Minifigure Factory Review

LEGO Minifigure Factory

Last week, LEGO announced that the LEGO Minifigure Factory has returned to the LEGO Shop after launching the beta for it a few years back. Here you can personalize your own LEGO character, sigfig if you will, for a price of $11.99 per minifigure. LEGO recently gave us an opportunity to check out the new additions to the system including more heads, bodies, and accessories.

LEGO Minifigure Factory

During the process of making your character, you can choose from a wide combination of head, headwear, torso, legs, and accessories. The torso has more details that you can choose from such as the clothing, decorations, and text. For the clothing, you can pick from solid, plain, patterns, or outfits. The outfits have more stylized options that you can choose from. You are able to design the torso on the back as well with the same options.

One thing I noticed when designing the back of my minifigure is that the coloring on the physical minifigure is a little darker than what you see on screen. As you can see below, I personalized the back of the torso and it seems fine on screen but when I look at it in hand, you can barely see the letters. I had to super zoom in on the minifigure to try to make out the words. I would suggest if you’re using a darker torso color, use bright letter. You can also see some issues with the pad printing with the minor scratches.
