Still, though, this appearance of them isn't unprecedented in the Winnie the Pooh franchise While the aforementioned characters are usually, but not invariably, bipedal, Eeyore walks on four legs and is accordingly represented by another unique element. Sand blue is ideal for the melancholy donkey and his facial expression encapsulates great personality, particularly since the eyes appear fittingly downcast. The stitched detailing looks outstanding too, corresponding with the original character.

Winnie the Pooh's house has remained remarkably consistent in appearance between varied illustrated, animated and live-action depictions. This design seems accordingly accurate while also including copious features which are identifiable with specific stories. The impressive tree stretches nearly 25cm in height and its base measures 21cm deep, although such dimensions do not reflect the magnificent detail that distinguishes this creation from others.Myriad innovative building techniques have been employed when designing trees, frequently including small flowers or leaves decorating larger foliage elements. This tree exhibits similar construction methods, albeit comprising bright green coral pieces in place of standard foliage. While the texture appears somewhat unusual, I think this effect looks fantastic! Moreover, the coral elements include numerous attachment points which remain vacant, allowing additional options for customisation.

Two beehives are located among the branches. These nests are commonly portrayed inside trees during Winnie the Pooh animations, rather than hanging outside, but I believe using the dedicated beehive component was sensible here. Printed bees are suspended beneath these hives and represented by 1x1 round tiles. Their comic style restricts uses elsewhere, although they look absolutely ideal for Winnie the Pooh. Winnie the Pooh instead exhibits superb details, focusing upon Pooh's charming house and maintaining tremendous accuracy when compared with the animated location. Additionally, five memorable characters are provided and these appear absolutely marvellous, comprising several uniquely moulded components. Box and ContentsAutumnal colours adorn the roof, which consists of layered 1x1 slopes and 1x2 slopes. Their varying shades look outstanding together, interrupted by scattered leaves which appear quite realistic. I like the twisted chimney that protrudes from the roof as well, faithfully recreating the original location where this conspicuous structure invariably appears. Each minifigure includes an appropriate accessory, making reference to their most renowned adventures. Pooh therefore features his balloon that originates from Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree, when the eponymous bear memorably disguised himself as a rain cloud! Piglet's scarf, meanwhile, takes inspiration from Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day. The colour for each accessory deviates from the original animations though. Bright colours appear throughout this model, hence the grass is constructed using lime green and bright green plates. However, the rounded tuffets which flank Pooh's home feature darker green pieces and the resulting spectrum of different shades looks wonderful. Furthermore, the integration of angled leaves with mushrooms provides additional splashes of colour and these appear suitably natural.
