If you had picked up this set just for the magnificent build of Maleficent in her dragon form, then you may have missed Aurora’s sneaky little addition – she gets her own knight’s kit and now has OPTIONS! She can make her own happily ever after, she don’t need no man! The addition of pants, a sword and a helm in this LEGO set Maleficent’s Dragon Form and Aurora’s castle 43240 turns it from a cute but ordinary build into something that offers the princess new storylines and adventures, I love a stereotype-defying option. This set actually feels like a very classic “knight fighting dragon, saves princess” kind of thing, until you look closer into the castle. Love it. I’ll build Maleficent next time, and we’ll add Prince Phillip and Samson (the horse).
If you’ve just dropped by, I’m Ellie! Lego is an artistic medium and no matter your building expertise there is something here for everyone. Stick around and I’ll build for you while I review new sets and create my own customs (MOCs). I tend to geek out about new pieces, get excited about learning new and interesting building techniques, giggle too much and just generally ramble. I’m easily distracted so things can get a bit hectic, but I’m sure you’re down for that.
And don’t forget that you can also get an ellieV t-shirt and other stuff from here! https://teespring.com/stores/elliev-toys-merch
