I had to have this peacock just for the color combinations. The pictures don't do it justice. It is beautiful! Easy to build - the feet of this thing make me giggle every time I look at them.
The most beautiful piece of Lego art I have created. It looks pretty online, it looks prettier on the box, but after building it, you have no words to describe its visual beauty!
Great addition to any type of Lego builder to add to their collection!
My boyfriend got me into Lego recently and I love it so much, I took to it and we've been having a great time buying all the different 3 in 1 sets and putting them together in our college dorm together. This one is a really pretty set and I love the way the peacock came out, but when building the dragonfly configuration, it was much more difficult than it needed to be in a really irritating way. It was almost impossible to put together because most of the components are joined to one another with 1-stud connections and it kept falling apart in my hands as I tried to build it. The impact of the snap of any new piece was enough to knock off the legs or knock off one of the yellow eye pieces. Picking up the finished dragon fly to display it on my shelf and it's impossible to get the dragon fly to stay connected to the base. It lacks sturdiness and I kept having to repeat steps. The peacock suffered from this a little bit too, the head really doesn't want to stay on because of the one stud connection.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

That sounds like great teamwork! We're sorry you're having trouble keeping your set together. If you'd like a hand troubleshooting the build or if you find that any pieces aren't holding together as they should, feel free to give us a shout at LEGO.build/Service-BV so we can help!
I purchased this build for myself because I love peacocks. The directions were easy to follow and love the examples. I recommend these toys to anyone who likes puzzles and can follow directions.
Disappointed in the lack of colors on tail. Used 4 green could have used bigger variety. Maybe different color or each tail piece. Love the finished piece.
