LEGO The Capture of Sophie Jones 41182

This fairly small set is one of my favourite LEGO Elves sets. We love the attractive range pink and lavender LEGO Elves sets and got many of them, I should say our lucky daughter. The tiny house included in this set however is a little less pink but has a welcome blue roof instead, that nice stands out in our Elves village. The fact that this tiny shop is staffed by a squirrel (called Mr Spry!!!?) makes it irresistible. And I love the little side porch. Mr. Spry even has a little bed and candle.Even with this small Elves set there is a lot of detail and colourful decoration. There are little coins, pots, and a bag. While the house is decorated with only a single branch of a purple tree. The set furthermore include an obvious Sophie Jones figure, of which we got a few already by now, and a magical portal and Barblin the Goblin with his terrifying Elf-capture-mobile.The construction and assembly of this 228 piece set was not too demanding for our 8-year old daughter, that required little assistance on the project. As always the instructions are very clear. Following construction, the children put the set to perfect use in their Elves growing Elves village and many adventures.So to conclude; this is another great Elves set, a unique house in terms of size and colour. All in the expected great LEGO-quality. Too bad that the Elves line seems to be discontinued, for now, and that sets are getting scarce through regular channels. With a little imagination the line could have been taken much further.
