This is one of Lego's weirdest attempt at branching out. At least Belville dolls actually have 1x2 feet and minifig size hands.
My first response:
Clikets—yay! Oh wait no that’s Scalia. :-(
Huwbot you let us down. My hopes were raised so high...
That doll is already sucking away your soul... It's too late...
Now that's the Clickset I know!
Oh wait... It's Scala. I guess it's Scaleset now?
^In 2022, might as well be called Girlset since Friends sets would be able to be a RSOTD then.
I feel like I’ve seen that doll on Robot Chicken.
Holy...creepy...cow
Okay, “Ashley” looks like she’s gonna kill me in my sleep.
Ashley’s got the look that she just ripped one out.
Well. At least it's not Clikits?
Although the look on that doll's face is utterly terrifying.
THIS was the set the started it all! My love of Lego, my zest for life, my lucrative career in structural engineering, and my beautiful family spawned from it all.... THANK YOU 3240 Ashley's Miniature Garden!
Oh, Ashley! We meet again...
This must be one of the most terrifying things I've ever seen.
I think that the original Scala theme with brick-built jewelery was much better than this Barbie parody
All those accessories would go great with my Sylvanian Families.
Ashley on the other hand.... bottom of the toy box for you. Way way down in the bottom in the dark corner next to that broken plastic phone that came with a comic.
“Miniature garden” being code for “single bouquet of flowers” by the looks of it
Those little flower pieces actually come in handy but I’m totally done with it when I find a hair in my food... or in my Lego for that matter....!
@dtobin123 you joke, but if you just swap out the name to Paradisa set 6414 Dolphin Point, your statement is completely true for me... girly Lego isn’t all bad!
(This however, is an abomination)
Y'all getting funny here but all I see is an interesting parts pack. That milk? Awesome! Those pots and plates? Great! Wait, are those fabric panties on the right...?
I didn’t know Dario Argento was a Lego designer.
We need a part analysis article similar to the recent clickits one. I've just had a look through some of the parts and amazed at the variety and longevity of some of the bits included. Other parts are probably best left forgotten though.
@Brickalili—The pictures on BrickLink show off the set much better; there are four flower bunches, it seems. It’s not what I’d consider a “garden”, but I guess it is a *miniature* garden. If this was the goal at LEGO for the set/theme, it does look like a nice Playmobil playset.
Now we are talking! ;-)
First - The name is wrong. The name of the set is Andrea's Miniature Garden -Ashley was a prototype name.
Second - Here is WAY better picture: https://lego.fandom.com/wiki/3240_Andrea%27s_Miniature_Garden?file=1757.jpg
@thor96.. Yes they are. Not to brag, but I dated her in high school.
@lordofdragonss.. Incorrect. Huwbots are never wrong. Prepare to be dispatched.
@lordofdragonss
You're right about Andrea. But as we all know, those are her looks before being possessed by Ashley.
