Caught the concept better than a master ball

As a diehard Nintendo fan, bought this cute little guy just for my desk shelf, but I was quite impressed by how well the designers blended aesthetics with posability. It isn't a 1-to-1 model of Eevee, and that's fine. It captures the defining aspects of the cutie with the ears, tail, and little neck puff, and takes creative liberties with other aspects to make them fit the Lego medium. Trying too hard to replicate a specific shape can make something look rough, and the flat face and skinny body help draw attention to the defining features. It's also worth mentioning that all the parts are posable! The leg movements are a bit rigid, but the head and tail have a wide range of movement. The ears are the cherry literally on top, with different positions that can show emotion even with a flat face. The tiles with the eeveelution colors inside are also a wonderful subtle secret, akin to the hidden micro model of world 1-2 in the NES set. A rare Lego set that works extremely well as both a toy and a decoration. Easily the best set I've bought in years. My only wish is that it had some extra facial expressions included, it would be cute for stop-motion animations since those are beloved by both Lego and Pokémon fans. 10/10 set, hands down
My kids absolutely LOVE their Eevees. I had to buy 2 of them just so they'd stop fighting over the one. The only issue is that when playing with it, the Eevee has certain parts that keep falling off, like the legs especially. If the connections from the legs to the body were a little more durable or secure, this would be a perfect set. Also, I really do wish Lego would do in this same scale, the different Eevee evolutions. I know I'd buy one of each for my kids.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thanks for letting us know how much fun you and your kids had with Eevee. We're sorry to hear the legs haven't been as stable as possible. If they continue to fall apart after being rebuilt, please give us a shout at LEGO.build/Service so that we can help!
I bought this set for my daughter’s 4th birthday, for us to build together (she’s REALLY good at putting Legos together for her age; she did most of the building with my oversight). I came here to leave a review because it was cuter than I was expecting!! Our family loves Pokemon AND Legos, and our daughter’s birthday party theme this year was Eevee, so it was an obvious gift choice. The body moves great for play and it’s sturdy. The small details are fantastic. I absolutely LOVED the special touch of the Eeveeloution pieces that are hidden in a layer of her face. The Lego creator was so thoughtful with that! Thank you Lego! Our family loves you!
I would recommend this to a friend!

We're pleased to hear about how much your daughter enjoyed the build. It's quite impressive to build our more complex sets at such a young age. Also, happy belated birthday to her!
They said the most affordable all the other ones are way too expensive and the smart brakes raise of the cost. They should be normal size and mini figure size maybe even a mini figure.
i named her Olive. she was very fun to build, and even more fun to play with. this set is sturdy, smooth, and delightfully posable. i recommend it to any Pokémon fan. definitely the strongest of the first wave.
