Well, I suppose so, but I don’t see it happening. While technically it IS
owned by TLC. It is just a model built at Legoland, therefore TLC has no
knowledge of it, or probably any desire to make it into a set. But is is
quite nice....

With the weird and wonderful variety of models that the Master Builders come up
with, you’d think they’d occassionally take a stroll through the parks with the
idea of finding a small marketable model in mind.

Ah! Good, they are available! I am never sure what parts have been made for
the modelshop that haven’t been made before!
|
I’m sure you’ll develop a better sense for it as time goes on and you become
more accustomed to having to scrounge your own parts. Peeron and Bricklink are
both excellent sources for figuring out which parts exist in which colors.
Careful attention to the numbers can even give you hints as to how easy it might
be to get your hands on them.

You got a better chance of having it released as as set than finding
instuctions! We don’t use instructions! It is the masterful use of bricks to
come up with the right shape and form, to capture the essence of the blah,
blah, blah..... Well I am sure you can figure out the rest! It’s not an
overly complicated model, if there were a couple of good close up shots, it
wouldn’t be too hard to copy.
|
I’m the sort of person where if I want a copy of someone else’s design, I like
to start with exactly the same design, brick-for-brick, before I start tweaking
it. If I tweak it at all. In this case, I’m not sure I would, except maybe to
recolor it into a different breed of frog.
