LEGO Botanical Collection 10281 Bonsai Tree revealed
A new 18+ that is part of the new LEGO Botanical Collection, 10281 Bonsai Tree, has been revealed in official images.
The LEGO Group will continue to cover new topics in 2021, with the Botanical Collection concentrating on the natural world in models intended for an adult audience. 10281 Bonsai Tree recreates a small tree grown in the traditional Japanese method.
The 878 piece set, shared by Brickset and originally revealed by Bonito, is likely to retail for around £90. It comes with a whole set of alternative pink leaves, so it can be reimagined in the same way as 21318 Tree House.
Another set in the series, 10280 Flower Bouquet, has also been revealed. That model is 756 pieces and builds 10 different flowers covering multiple varieties.
It’s the first time that the LEGO Group has delved into the natural world in an adult orientated set since LEGO Ideas 21301 Birds and continues the push into areas that have previously not been covered in the product range. Notably the set also follows several 2020 18+ releases that offered non-minifigure scale models.
More 2021 sets revealed include LEGO Art, Friends, DOTS, NINJAGO, Creator, Technic and City.
