71469 lego dreamzzz nightmare shark ship 1

Today we very quickly go around the content of the LEGO DREAMZzz set 71469 Nightmare Shark Ship, a box of 1389 pieces available from LEGO at the public price of €139.99 but accessible for much less from the vast majority of resellers.

This is the largest and most expensive set of the first wave of products derived from the animated series which promotes these boxes and we find there the main cast of this “in-house” LEGO license.

This product may therefore seem essential to begin in the best possible way a collection which will then be expanded with several small additional products allowing you to imagine new adventures and to obtain some more or less secondary characters.

Everyone knows the main construction proposed in this box, so I set out to build the variant proposed in the pages of the instruction booklet, I find in passing this shark on wheels with a boat placed on its back even more successful than the simple flying boat shark presented by default which does not stand out.

Like all the sets in the range, this box allows you to vary the pleasures a little and extend the "experience" by choosing the model to assemble in the last pages of the instruction booklet. The formula imagined by the designers does not reach the level of the best sets in the Creator 3-in-1 range but it seems to me to be sufficiently simplified to allow the youngest to not have to take everything apart to quickly enjoy the secondary model.

It is in fact only a question of implementing certain accessories differently on the product, the common core of the two variants using the majority of the inventory. I also note that the secondary model here attempts to make maximum use of the parts delivered in the box and that on arrival there are only a handful of parts left on the floor (see photos below), c 'is appreciable on a large product like this.

In both cases, this shark vessel with an articulated tail benefits from a few features that should please young people with a winch whose cable (a simple wire) with its grappling hook circulates through the shark's mouth, a movable jaw, an accessible cage by manipulating the shark's ribs and a chest hidden in the upper floor of the ship. No mechanism integrated into the wheels to, for example, open and close the jaw when the shark tank is moving.

It is also possible to remove the boat's cabin to use it separately and take advantage of its interior layout, which remains basic but which will allow some interactions between the King of Nightmares and the young heroes Mateo and Izzie who have come to free Nova.

The number of stickers used remains limited, which is good news for a toy intended to be handled without care by young audiences. I note some fragilities of the whole here or there, you will have to be careful not to lose some decorative elements which only hold on a tenon like the railing or the lanterns of the bridge but we cannot however complain of having the right to a construction which benefits from numerous finishing details despite its frankly crazy side which visually takes over.

This range manages to surprise me, all things considered because I am obviously not the target of this universe, with some pretty details which testify to the obvious care taken in its design. LEGO is not making fun of its youngest fans here, there is both a real effort on aesthetics and on the pleasure of construction.

As for the figurines provided, it is as usual in this range relatively balanced and very well executed. I have said it and repeated several times, the minifigs are very accomplished and the level of detail of each of the characters will undoubtedly be enough to annoy fans of other ranges which provide less polished and somewhat economical figurines. .

With this truly original construction measuring 60 cm long by 31 cm high, fans will have the “flagship” of the LEGO DREAMZzz range on their shelves, and they will then be able to try to convince their parents and friends to offer them gifts. other less ambitious but complementary sets.

The fact remains that in my opinion all of this is not worth the €140 requested by LEGO, especially for an in-house universe without an external license or royalties to be paid back in the form of a percentage of sales. Fortunately, this box is available elsewhere for a little less than a hundred euros, so we approach a price more consistent with the content offered.

The public price of the product does not seem to scare customers, however, this box being indicated as a restocking course at LEGO with availability promised for December 15. Elsewhere the product is still currently in stock: at Amazon at €99.99 or at Cdiscount at €99.99, the other brands having already raised their prices as is customary to do during the last weeks in the run-up to Christmas. If you don't know what to get a young LEGO fan for Christmas and want to keep them away from the usual Star Wars or Marvel licenses, this product shouldn't disappoint.

Your participation is taken into account regardless of your opinion. Avoid “I’m participating” or “I’m trying my luck”, we suspect that this is the case.
