Note that in Chinese culture, the number four is considered unlucky, while the numbers six and eight are the luckiest. Money Tree is a seasonal model and one in line with the likes of the Chinese Traditional Festival range too, so don’t expect it to be available outside of LEGO. The set offers no playability, but it does make a lovely display model, particularly when placed between the two .

At 16cm high, 14cm wide and 16cm deep, the size of this model may take you by surprise, but it’s still small enough to fit into any cracks in your collection, or sit aptly on any minimal surface space you have in mind. Okay, so looking into what a “yuanbao” is, I now understand that the 2x2 radar dish is meant to approximate a lid that is a common feature of ones shaped like boats.

The Money Tree Set is decorated with 20 tangerines, 14 red envelopes and 10 coins that bring prosperity and good luck. They come in varieties such as an orchid and cherry blossoms, both of which represent spring and good luck.

I like this tree, although I feel like the 'pumpkin mandarins' would perhaps have looked better when using 'BB-8 body spheres' in plain orange? Lego did fantastic job with the bonsai tree, it's a shame they went here with such an inorganic build. Celebrate Chinese New Year with this brilliantly detailed and attractive Money Tree (40648) adorned with riches and rewards.

I wrote him a letter that this should go next to his bed and every time he looks at it he should remember that he worked hard for most of his life to put money away for retirement (money on the tree) symbolizes this.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. This 336-piece depicts a mini kumquat/tangerine tree, decorated with gold coins and red envelopes, which are symbols of good fortune and prosperity. Lunar New Year is around the corner, which means that it’s time to take out the trash—literally and figuratively.

com An in-depth review of the LEGO Dune Ornithopter featuring working wing functions and a great minifig lineup including LEGO Baron Harkonnen! I consider this a LEGO Botanical set, joining the likes of 10311 Orchid, and 10309 Succulents, as it’s really a brick-built shrub, with some decorations hanging from it. These little the leaves, and together with the kumquats, and coins give the Money Tree plenty of visual bookmarks that draw your eyes to all the interesting elements. Growing up, cleaning for the new year was a family affair, and that’s a practice I continue today with my kids.
