Great way for the odd coloured tiles
Hello all, today I'll be looking at one of the 5 LEGO Dots bracelets released in the initial wave of the theme. This is the 41902 Sparkly Unicorn that contains 33 pieces and sells for £/$4.99 with a price per part of 15p. Lets take a look of what is included.
Parts
Well lets take a look at the most interesting piece first the new bracelet that is in a lavender colour for this set. This bracelet has a 2x14 stud area but measures at around 21cm long. There are 5 holes that are to connect to a peg on the underside so it fits snuggly on your wrist. The feel of the band is comparable to that of a mini doll hair piece, but this band is very flex-able.
Placing bricks onto the band is a big thing and if they are 1x1 studs and tiles they will stay on very very well, they all fit onto the studs very well and i cannot see them falling off unless they are put under some serious stretching and i mean serious.
Now there are 32 small 1x1 tiles in an array of colours and styles to spruce up your bracelet, lets take a look at the piece you get starting with the special printed and new parts.
- 1x1 Tile in Teal with Unicorn head print (Qty x2, plus 1 extra) Unicorn has closed eyes and has a golden horn and its hair has light aqua and magenta pink highlights printed, around the unicorn is black print.
- 1x1 Tile in Teal with Unicorn hair print (Qty x2, plus 1 extra) flowing hair which is a continuation of the printed unicorns head printed tile, the hair curls to a point surrounding the hair is the space background with some stars printed
- 1x1 Corner Tile in Black with Star Design (Qty x4, plus 1 extra) 3 large stars, one in each pink, blue and yellow, surrounded by grey dots representing some stones loose in space with some sparkly highlights.
- 1x1 Corner Tile in Chrome Silver (Qty x4, plus 1 extra)
Now to the unprinted corner tiles included

Overall
This isn't the best of the first 5 bracelets from the DOTS theme but it is definitely one of the greatest ones, having a variety of great printed parts and new colours for the increasingly common corner tile which the DOTS theme heavily relies on. £/$4.99 for this is a great price for the selection of elements included in this set. It is nice to see those unicorn printed 1x1 teal tiles released in a cheap way after being released in the Trafalgar Square Architecture set last year.
I recommend this set to anyone who wants to spice up their outfits but also to anyone wanting to give this theme a try as this set offers some of the greatest possibilities in designs and looks. I have seen many people who like this bracelet and i can see this one selling very well.
Pros - Great selection of parts, perfect balance of pieces, inspired creativity
Cons - None to mention apart from maybe another printed part would have been nice
This set is now available in the UK LEGO Shop:

Sparkly Unicorn Bracelet
1/5
Building experience was bad due to the pieces continually falling off the bracelet. The value is bad also at $5, which should be $4 or less. Parts are ok, but aren't very useful. Playability is meh, as you don't really do much other than wear it.
