I am so grateful for LEGO to rekindle a medieval line through the creator three in one. The model is finely built and can be quite expressive in the face with all the moving parts, but please do understand its legs are pose-able but not many positions are functional to balance, but it can grip around things to perch on them for display action. How to improve on success: As great as it is I thought as a play element having a dragon slayer knight on a horse and princess mini figure would have really completed this story line. If that is too much then even just a single Lions knight would have gone a long way for my best impressions. Which is the reason for the 4 on the overall score as a stand alone set the dragon does not have context for adventure or play. I do hope that a similar set will happen with a new molded dragon as well as some play features. As much as I like this model also would like to have a smaller dragon with a more modern mold as part of a legacy collection. It also would have been cool as a 3 in 1 to design to have an alternative build with the wings in a static closed position close to the body or half bent/ flapping. giving more options than spreading even if it takes a big rebuild. The other Alt builds I did not make but they do look good too. There seems to be a good amount and type of parts in this for those who make mocs. The greens can be hard get and there are lots of snot and big ball joints. The only problem is, its not a model that I want to take apart. A sure classic to me! this is a timeless set and a really good LEGO dragon.
While I'm not a huge fan of how expensive LEGO sets are getting, I am thankful for these 3-in-1 sets. Three sets for the price of one! Love the colors and the style of the dragon, the serpent, and the phoenix!
