Description
This poodle model brick kit holds every small plastic brick you need to build a standing poodle dog, from its curly topknot to its fluffy feet. The finished model is mostly white, with a pale blue back and legs, a black nose and black eyes. The white bricks are stacked to give the poodle its clipped coat, round ruffs at each ankle and a neat pom-pom at the end of its tail. Built, it stands 6.1cm tall, 8.4cm from nose to tail and 3.2cm wide, small enough to sit in the palm of a hand.
Once finished, the poodle makes a cheerful little ornament for a bookshelf, a desk, a bedside table or a windowsill, where its white coat stands out against wood or a painted wall. It is a toy to build slowly rather than rush, with the tiny bricks pressing together a few at a time, so it suits a quiet evening at the kitchen table or a rainy weekend afternoon. Because it is so small and light, it tucks easily into a bag, and it makes a thoughtful gift: an absorbing bit of making first, then a small model dog to keep.
The bricks are ABS plastic, hard and smooth, and they press together snugly as the model takes shape. Each kit comes in its own box with the bricks bagged together and a folded instruction sheet that builds the poodle in numbered steps, each step picturing the bricks it needs, so you can follow along without guessing. The pieces are tiny, so we like to build on a tray, which stops strays rolling away. To keep the finished model looking its best, dust it with a soft dry cloth and wipe it with a damp cloth. Set it beside a favourite plant or a stack of books, and it brings a friendly touch to any shelf.
