Finally, the set features two minifigures kids. They are both made from commonly available parts so nothing too exciting but I do like the ‘amazed’ face used for the boy. They might not be too exciting but the appeal of the set is buildable elements, not the minifigures however, it’s nice to have someone to explore the realm. The 3in1 Mythical Creatures set features a rebuildable, fire-breathing Dragon with fangs, green eyes and pointed claws, plus posable jaws, head, tail and wings. Unveiling the name in a video shared across LEGOLAND Windsor’s social media channels, the latest tease reveals a mythical portal to another world opening for the first time. In a hint to the creatures that families may find in this parallel universe, huge footprints shake the Resort, a winged shadow flies overhead and the 30 second film ends with an ice storm engulfing LEGOLAND Windsor’s iconic entrance.

The new multi-million-pound land created by kids for kids marks the LEGOLAND Windsor Resort’s biggest expansion since it opened 25 years agoTwo minifigures are included as well though, representing a pair of younger guests visiting and exploring MYTHICA. There’s nothing particularly special about these characters, though the boy does include a double-sided face to express his amazement at the creatures he sees.

Our new land has been two years in the making and co-created with families to make sure it delivers what children and their parents want from a theme park in 2021. We can’t wait to share more details soon.” Created for kids by kids, the parallel universe of LEGO MYTHICA marks the Resort’s single biggest investment since the gates opened 25 years ago and will see children’s imaginations and creativity run wild as mythical LEGO creatures come to life in front of their very eyes. Open the Dragon’s fiery jaws to reveal its sharp fangs and then whip its tail, fold out its wings and take to the skies. Today marks the 1st Anniversary since the portal to LEGO MYTHICA opened at LEGOLAND Windsor Resort. The multi-million-pound expansion to the world’s second-oldest LEGOLAND park is the first to be based on an original theme, created especially for LEGOLAND Windsor. In the realm of LEGO MYTHICA, magically mixed up creatures exist. Within the park, they have inspired the Flight of the Sky Lion flying theatre ride, Hydra’s Challenge and new for 2022, the Magical Forest. But it’s not just epic rides and experiences the new land has inspired, it’s also the inspiration for the latest LEGOLAND set. For a few years now LEGOLAND and LEGOLAND Discovery Centres have offered exclusive sets often inspired by rides in the park. They have included NINJAGO World: The Ride, The Driving School and The Fire Academy. Now visitors to LEGOLAND Windsor can take a little bit of LEGO MYTHICA home with them in the new LEGO MYTHICA set. Thanks to LEGOLAND Windsor Resort, I’ve been able to take a closer look at the set before its June 1st release. As impressive as the build of 40556 Mythica is compared to other LEGOLAND sets, its appeal can only go so far since it’s based on a property that only physically exists at one theme park. For those visiting LEGOLAND Windsor, it joins the many other models that commemorate your day depending on your favourite ride. It’s also harder to fit it in with the rest, since it doesn’t include a smaller depiction of an attraction but recreates the characters and creatures of MYTHICA instead.Visiting LEGOLAND is certainly a treat and the desire to mark the occasion with a souvenir is strong with most visitors. A set like this is much more desirable than a pen or a mug. The different parts of the set offer not only a fun build experience but a nice slice of what the land of MYTHICA has to offer as well.

LEGO® MYTHICA: World of Mythical Creatures will feature exhilarating new rides, including a UK first attraction Much of the builds in 40556 Mythica are characters in their own right, and the models are great representations of them, with Maximus featuring the same commanding presence as at the parks and Bits and Bobs being considerably more colourful and fun-loving.

LEGO: Available now at LEGOLAND resorts and LEGOLAND Discovery Centres — LEGO 40556 Mythica build —

Working in partnership with Kids Industries, the LEGOLAND Windsor team behind the new the land spent a year discussing and testing ideas and concepts with seven to 11-year olds and their parents who influenced everything from the final ride experiences, names and characters. Maximus takes up the most pieces and he makes for an impressive model compared to the other, comparatively simple LEGOLAND sets that are also available. Whilst the LEGOLAND builds tend to offer a facade representing an attraction and a functional version of the ride for minifigures, Maximus makes it clear that this is a different kind of LEGOLAND set for a more experienced audience. However, it won’t alienate builders of all ages – it might just take them longer to put together. Coming in 2021 the new land, called LEGO MYTHICA, brings brand new rides and experiences to its visitors, as well as a rebranding of some of its older rides including S.Q.U.I.D Surfer. Friday 30 October: The LEGOLAND® Windsor Resort has today revealed it will open a multi-million-pound new land where mythical LEGO® creatures come to life.Continue the adventure with this 3in1 model. Rebuild the Dragon to create a scary Spider toy with big pincers and creepy legs, or a menacing LEGO® Troll with an axe that doubles as a heavy-metal guitar. However, it also means that the appeal of the gateway is somewhat limited in terms of recognisable MYTHICA elements since it only physically exists at LEGOLAND Windsor. Whether this will change in the future has not been confirmed, though we can appreciate the inclusion of something that is featured in the actual land of MYTHICA in 40556 Mythica. — LEGO 40556 Mythica characters — Their simple design makes them easily interchangeable with other minifigures from LEGOLAND sets, or any that take your fancy, though they’re not exactly a major selling point for 40556 Mythica. — LEGO 40556 Mythica price — Enjoy monstrous adventures with this LEGO® Creator 3in1 31073 Mythical Creatures set. Create a fire-breathing Dragon with a dark-red and yellow color scheme, large fangs, green eyes and pointed claws. This 3in1 children's toy also features posable legs, head, tail and wings, and rebuilds to create a Giant Spider or an axe-bearing LEGO Troll for more scary LEGO® fun. The decision to focus on Maximus as the main model in 40556 Mythica makes sense considering that he features in both the main attraction of the land at Windsor and the 4D film, though those who have seen MYTHICA at LEGOLAND Windsor will also recognise him from the enormous model that looms over guests in front of his ride. Put simply, this was the obvious choice for 40556 Mythica and it’s executed in a way that feels fundamentally different from other LEGOLAND sets while still being approachable for anyone to build.
