Review: LEGO Juniors 10759 Elastigirl's Rooftop Pursuit

With the Juniors range, LEGO has invented the transition product for children accustomed to large DUPLO bricks who are old enough to switch to parts System. On the price side, parents will already be used to the high public prices of DUPLO sets and we do not change a winning team ...

Three new LEGO Juniors boxes and a pack of two characters in BrickHeadz format (41613 Mr Incredible & Frozone) are marketed around the release of the movie The Incredibles 2 (The Incredibles 2). No "classic" sets. This is quite logical considering that the main target of these derivatives are very young children.

LEGO sent me the three LEGO Juniors sets in question, so it's an opportunity to take a tour of these three boxes that offer something to bring together the entire Parr family.
Those who collect only minifigs also probably already have Mr Incredible (Mr Indestructible) and Syndrome, two characters present in the bags of the Disney minifig series (ref. Lego 71012). They will find in these different boxes something to expand their collections.

So we start today with the set 10759 Elastigirl's Rooftop Pursuit (95 pieces - 26.99 €) which allows you to obtain Helene Parr in her costume of Elastigirl and Screenslaver, a villain who hypnotizes his victims using the rotor of his helicopter. Elastigirl has her own ... Elasticycle, obviously. The fairing already seen in the LEGO Ninjago set 70638 Katana V11 (2018) is provided here in Medium Stone Gray.

As usual in the LEGO Juniors line, the content is sold as "easy to build". To put it mildly, it looks like a Happy Meal toy with the meta-pieces that make up the skeleton of the various vehicles. But this is the concept intended by LEGO and it is indicated roughly on the box.
For those who do not yet know, there are no stickers in these sets, everything is pad printed.

If you are over 5 years old, the set will be assembled in five minutes flat, including the coffee break. The end result is very honest with two protagonists, two vehicles, a helipad and even a laptop and a walkie talkie. There is plenty of fun, that's the purpose of this box.

The Elastigirl minifig delivered in this box is equipped with flexible plastic arms which cross the torso of the figurine on the same principle as Ms. Marvel in the set 76076 Captain America Jet Pursuit. For those who do not have the Ms. Marvel minifigure, know that you can slide the tube to one side or another to lengthen or shorten one arm (and therefore logically shorten or lengthen the other ... ). This tube is not removable and LEGO does not provide conventional arms.

We will appreciate the legs of Elastigirl molded in two colors and the new reusable hair for other female characters but we will regret the absence of pad printing on the back of the various members of the Parr family. The orange belt materialized on the front of the torso would have deserved to be printed also on the back. We will do with it.

You won't see Screenslaver's face here, you'll find out why later. The characters' legs are in Pearl Dark Gray, they are also present in the LEGO Star Wars sets 75190 First Order Star Destroyer et 75201 First Order AT-ST or in the LEGO Marvel set 76103 Corvus Glaive Thresher Attack.
If you're only targeting members of the Parr family, you can skip this set. Hélène Parr is also delivered in another box, with standard arms.

26.99 € is a bit expensive for two minifigs and a few coins. A third character would have been welcome. But as the other would say: when you love, you don't count (or so little) ...
