Hello!
This Earth Day inspired set depicts the four earth elements; earth, water, air, and fire. This set has 488 pieces including the base plate portion. Each of the characters are a representation of each of the four earth elements. Earth is represented by a rock monster and the plants that grow from the earth. Water is depicted by a water spout and several splashes indicating the natural movement of water. Due to the nature of air not being visible, the Air character is shown as a tornado and clouds that are directly at the mercy of air. Fire is represented by a column of fire and flames in transparent oranges and reds on top of a black scorched base. The base plate is designed to be organic in shape and tie in the theme of each element.
This set originally started as just the rock character that I had built one day when I was just tinkering around. I love spending time in nature doing things like camping, hiking, and paddle boarding and was inspired to create the air, fire, and water once I saw how cool the rock character turned out. It took quite some time to sort through the dozens of bins of loose Lego I have to find the right pieces for each of the elements. I have never seen any Lego set based on the elements of nature before. I think this set would make a great earth day release!
