3936- Emma's Fashion Design Studio

This set always seemed to be in limited supply, and taking a look at all the accessories, it's no wonder why.  More on that, but first note that while Emma is not pictured, she is wearing a purple tanktop and a dark blue skirt.  See the back of box image below to get a better look at her.












This set comes with a small table and stool with a sandwich and Lego laptop, a printed design board and stand, four drawers with four bolts of cloth and hairbrush, a larger work table with stepladder and lamp, flower cluster, mp3 player, mug, camera, and printed measuring tape.

3939- Mia's Bedroom

I was pretty psyched to see a more domestic setting like this in the Friends series.  This set is works fairly well, scale-size for normal Lego minifigures.













This set is made up of three main parts: bed with side table, table with radio, and a drumset.  The mini-doll Mia is not pictured but she is wearing a white halter top and a pink skirt.  Is anyone else really excited to have a proper Lego drumset?

4191- Captain's Cabin

I primarily bought this set because I wanted Pirates set with Captain Jack, since he is so awesome.  So, this set accomplished that and have me a handful of interesting pieces to use on other projects.  See below for back of box picture (and many other pictures).

41011- Stephanie's Soccer Practice



I'll not complain about the overuse of purposely "girly" coloured bricks in this Friends set, as it's not really too bad.  I actually got two of these sets since it only comes with one goal post and a proper footie game needs two, really.











Set comes with goalpost, sideline/bench area, obstacle training area, and a mechanism to set the ball in motion.  See below for back of box image.

41002- Emma's Karate Class

I was excited to see this set, as I'm a fan of martial arts and the set seemed to have a lot of nice elements.  As with all Friends sets, there are lots of pastel bricks and the scale doesn't quite fit normal Lego minifigures and I will always complain about both, but it's still a decent set overall.  See below for back of box image.


This is my second set with Emma, the other being 3936- Emma's Fashion Design Studio from 2012.  However, since I don't like the Friends mini-dolls, both of my Emma's remain mostly packaged and put away.  Hence no picture of her.  I do know that she is wearing a white karate outfit, with cropped pants, and what appears to be a black belt and a light purple flower printed on her torso.  The lavender bow she comes with matches the printed flower.

40052- Springtime Scene

I wasn't going to get this little set, but I was at the Chicago Watertower Place branch and they were just sitting by the register... In the future, I would like to have a small area set up with seasonal Lego scenes, so this is a good start for spring.  Plus, I can always use more tree models for my animations.
