Buddy the Elf Reviews

Brickset

“Among the details included on Buddy's base are a bottle of maple syrup and Arctic Puffin, one of Buddy's friends from the North Pole. I am not sure about the character's face, but such things are very difficult at this scale.”

Full review at brickset.com

“This delightful Buddy the Elf build looks like a must for those who adore the Will Ferrell-led holiday flick. Of course, there's also candy canes around the snowy base and a maple syrup bottle. Can't forget two of the most important food groups.”
