“I think the dragon is fantastic. I love the use of the ball joints that allows for so much flexibility in posing. The colours for the dragon are great - the blue and purple are a good match for the water dragon. The multi-colour wings are wonderful - and I like that there's... More one extra provided. I spent a lot of time swooshing the dragon around.”

“41172 The Water Dragon Adventure is the smallest and least expensive Elves set to let you experience the joy of creature building. I hope many of you give Merina a chance and find out how sweet and fun she really is!”
