Our son put a lot of thought into this gift. His dad loves airplanes, especially the older planes that have tail-wheels and single-engine biplanes. The Tornado Plane in this Lego set is obviously a biplane (two wings) with a single engine.
In the photo, Tails the fox is the airplane owner and pilot while Sonic the Hedgehog is the daredevil wing-walker. As you can see in my photo, Clucky (included in set) is also along for the ride. Don't tell Tails, but I do believe I have seen Sonic flying the biplane in our home.
You may wonder how we know the plane belongs to tails. That's easy! His "tail" emblem is on the plane and hanger.
Okay, I admit it. We are all huge Sonic the Hedgehog fans! Even now, I can hear the rings sound and the theme song in my mind from the original Sonic video game.
Lego Sonic the Hedgehog Set #76991
This Lego set is really cool! If you love Sonic, Tails and Lego, this is a must-have Lego set, regardless of your age.
It has 376 pieces and is recommended for ages 6+.
Not only does the set include the minifigures of Sonic and Tails, but it also includes the Lego pieces to make the airplane, Buzz Bomber, the workshop, a toolbox on wheels, tools, and a lounging recliner chair for Sonic to rest on while Tails is working.
The complete airplane measures approximately 5 3/4" wingspan, 5 3/4" length (propeller to tail), 4" tall including Sonic on the wing.
What a fun Lego set for fans of Sonic the Hedgehog and, of course, fans of Legos. A winning combination for sure. Thanks for sharing your review and your family fandom, Sylvestermouse.
ReplyDeleteIt certainly amazing all the different things they have in Legos. Fun review.
ReplyDeleteYour family gives the most thoughtful gifts! I love that you have passed down this trait to your children. This LEGO set was a great gift, not just for its intrinsic value and relation to your husband’s interests, but also because it provided an opportunity for your husband and son to spend quality time together constructing it.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful gift idea for a dad of any age - I love the thoughtful nature of giving a gift that both can share together. A fun gift that comes with quality time, family time. Such a nice idea.
