Following on from 2016’s more character based seasonal releases like ##40202 Easter Chick and #40203 Vampire & Bat, it’s great to see that Lego have brought back seasonal vignettes for 2017. 

#40236 Romantic Valentine Picnic is available now on Shop@Home.  €9.99 gets you 126 pieces, including some interesting ones like the chocolate bar, pineapple and green bottle, and also some nice plant pieces – a six stem plant and 2 curly stems.

There’s two little details that I love about this set – first up the birdhouse – how sweet is that – simple but effective!  And I also think it’s great that Lego have included both Tan and Dark Tan sandwiches – it’s just another good example of attention to detail by the designer.
