40382 Birthday Set<\/a> and 40385 Trophy<\/a> may both be novelty\nproducts, but do they pack more appeal than the average seasonal product?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Falling into the novelty gifts and builds area of the LEGO store<\/a>, perhaps better referred to as Seasonal<\/a>, are 40382 Birthday Set<\/a> and 40385 Trophy<\/a>, two small-sized builds of objects not usually seen in brick form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The birthday cake comes in five inches tall with the\nincluded minifigure stood on top, and just under that with the flags in its\nplace, whilst the trophy measures just under six inches tall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cake is a smart, solid build, packing colour, decorations and SNOT technique across three tiers, topped by either the clown minifigure included or the age flags. There\u2019s a large sticker sheet also included with two sets of numbers 0-9 printed on it making it for any age \u2013 it may be aimed at children but the LEGO<\/a> Group are aware this could serve as a great novelty gift for the adult fan of LEGO<\/a> who has all the sets already. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But, if it isn\u2019t for a birthday or for topping up a completist\u2019s LEGO<\/a> collection, there won\u2019t be much cause to pick up this set and, to be honest, most people would also like a real cake at their birthday\u2026doesn\u2019t last as long, but does taste nicer than plastic bricks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
