Pigs on the loose
I like pigs. Big, dirty, scruffy, blobs of pink, yet highly intelligent and entertaining. This little LEGO piggy is also a big blob of pink with some good and some bad things about it.
GOOD THINGS:
COLOR:
Yes!! A beautiful bright pink color is used to build up this pig. The color does the model and the actual animal just. The gray on the belly is spot-on and the dark gray rounded 1x1 plates make excellent feet/legs/paws(?)EARS:
Yes!! Lovely big ears. Pigs do have lovely big ears, so it is good to see that this LEGO model has gotten a pair of them.PRINTS:
Yes!! The eyes are nothing special, but they suit our piggy right. Turning them in different positions gives you the opportunity to give different facial expressions to our little guy: form duffy to bright :D
The print for the snout is superb and finishes of this model. It is absolutely critical for this build. I don't see any other use for it besides on this pighead, but I am sure other people will come up with various moc's showing of the possibilities of this rounded tile.POSE-ABILITY:
yes!! movable ears, eyes, legs, head, tail. It seems like everything about this model is changeable and that's perfectly fine.BAD THING:
SHAPING:
Some of the shapes or parts used are off. This is most visible with the tail, which is too long, not curly enough and has a different color then the rest of the figure. Also the snout is too flat.And that is a shame: the 2 most notable characteristics about a pig (it's curly tail and it's protruding snout) are not modeled correctly. It is a little bit of a let down and the reason why, although the model has a lot going for itself and has a lot of positive things, it get's a fairly low score of only 3 stars.
