Flower Dragon Garden

Hidden within these flowers are three small dragons.  These dragons use flowers to hide themselves from human eyes.  They look just like every other flower until they open up their petals/wings to reveal the dragons within.  These dragons have the ability to sense if a human is pure of heart and will keep the existance of the dragons a secret from others.

Along with these dragons is a fairy named Lilly.  Lilly's main job is to help the dragons hide from humans.  Her other jobs are to help spread pollen from dragon to dragon to help grow the next generation and water the dragons when there has been little rain.  She is small enough that humans often confuse her for a random insect as she flies by them.  She can also hide inside one of the flower with the dragons when humans approach.

The main feature of this set is that the dragons can be folded up into a flower-like form without having to remove any pieces.  The transformation from flower to dragon is quite simple.  First, you have to lift up the flower from the stem. Next, you unclip 7 of the 8 petals/wings from the octagonal plate.  Afterwards, move the top, bottom, left, and right petals/wings as far down as they go until they touch one another.  At this point, it is easy to remove Lilly from the octagonal plate.  Next, you have to move down the top-right, top-left, bottom-right, and bottom-left petals/wings until they can no longer go down.  Finally, unfold the tail (tails for blue), legs (for the red dragon), neck, and horn (for red and blue dragons) on the dragons inside of the flowers.

I designed three different dragons in three different colors to show that the Flower Dragons can grow in many different shapes and colors.  No two Flower Dragons are the same just like no two humans are the same.

I made the wings/petals in pictures 11, 12, 13, and 14 translucent to show how the dragons, and the fairy in picture 13, can fit inside even with the wings/petals closed.

Picture 15 shows an up close image of Lilly holding the watering can she uses to water the dragons and the yellow spheres in her other hand are the pollen she spreads between the dragons.

I made this set due to my love of dragons.  I also enjoy lego sets that transforms into different forms without having to remove any of the pieces.  I hope other people like this set's design and how the dragons can change between its flower and dragon forms without taking the set apart.
