It's the penultimate weekend before Christmas, how's that for time flying fast? Speaking of flying fast, I need to get a spoiler-free image up before we fly away here!
Okay, terrible flying puns aside, today's build is, in fact, a flying machine. More specifically, it is supposed to be a remote-controlled flying helicopter.
The helicopter joins two other remote-controlled builds from this year's Advent Calendar (boat and fire truck) as well as a digger (without a remote) as the toys of the calendar thus far.
Here's the full lineup:
I think they all look pretty good, though I do think the helicopter's blades are much too small for the helicopter itself. My son was mostly excited to have something to actually build today, proper builds have been fairly sparse in this year's calendar.
In the end, the improper ratios for the helicopter are hard to overlook. While I do commend the LEGO designers for doing something a bit different, it's hard to look at the helicopter and say it was a true success story. I can only give this one a 2 out of 5.
Running Total Score: 53/70
