Unbox the adventure with LEGO SMART Play™: Eevee and Lapras's Treasure Hunt 72162, a 623-piece journey measuring 6 inches (15.2 cm) tall, 6.5 inches (16.5 cm) wide, and 5 inches (12.7 cm) deep. This comprehensive build offers both display appeal and interactive potential. The box art already hints at the clever sub-assemblies for both Eevee and Lapras, ready to embark on their quest.
Flipping over the box, we see hints of the dynamic play possibilities. Notice the articulated elements, like Lapras's neck and Eevee's ear sub-assemblies, suggesting motion. The build is designed for interactive play using a Smart Brick, which, while not included, truly opens up possibilities for light and sound integration into these brick-built Pokémon.
Here are our three main sub-assemblies: a charming Eevee, the majestic Lapras, and the compact treasure island. The island features some clever greebling to suggest rocky terrain and a small wooden structure with a pirate flag. Lapras's form is captured using large curved slopes, while Eevee showcases some intricate SNOT techniques for its facial features and tail, giving it that iconic, cute expression.
These specialized red Smart Tabs are the heart of the interactive experience. Each tab features unique prints: one for collecting coins, one identifying Lapras (#0131) as a Water-type, and another for Eevee (#0133) as a Normal-type. They are designed to slot into the Smart Brick, triggering distinct sounds and lights, effectively bringing the digital world of Pokémon to life in brick form.
A successful treasure hunt demands proper loot! Here we have an open chest, expertly built with hinge bricks, overflowing with gold coins. Nestled amongst them are trans-green and trans-red gems, adding that extra sparkle. The treasure map itself is a beautifully printed tile, essential for any grand adventure and a welcome NPU for builders looking for versatile decor.
Observe the meticulous SNOT work used to create Eevee's expressive face, with printed eye tiles integrated seamlessly. The ears are cleverly articulated, allowing for dynamic posing, achieved with a simple but effective hinge connection. Layered plates and slopes expertly form the ruff around its neck and the fluffy tail, giving a wonderful sense of texture and depth to this brick-built Pokémon.
Our Lapras is demonstrating one of the set's hidden action features. A gentle push on the platform triggers a simple lever mechanism, sending the pirate flag up its pole. This play feature is built right into the landscape, offering a tactile reward for discovery. Eevee looks on, ready for the next phase of the hunt.
Here we see the dedicated cavity in both Eevee and Lapras designed to house the interactive Smart Brick. This integration is seamless, allowing the brick's internal light to glow from within, illuminating our Pokémon. The clutch power of the studs ensures the Smart Brick stays firmly in place, ready to activate its interactive features once inserted.
The magic of the Smart Brick isn't just in direct insertion; it's also in proximity. When Eevee and Lapras are brought close together, their internal Smart Bricks communicate, triggering unique responses. This allows for dynamic, unscripted play scenarios, where the Pokémon react to each other, adding another layer of depth to the treasure hunt narrative.
The beauty of the Smart Play system is its modularity. Our Eevee and Lapras integrate perfectly with other brick-built Pokémon, like this mighty Charizard. The Smart Brick encourages cross-set play, creating a larger, more interactive Pokémon world. This allows builders to mix and match their collections, creating their own unique adventures and battles.
With the Smart Bricks integrated, the play becomes a multi-sensory experience. The radiating rings indicate the activation of light and sound features, giving life to our Pokémon. Imagine Eevee's happy call or Lapras's serene cry as they navigate the island, guided by the treasure map. It's a clever way to enhance storytelling through tangible feedback.
Here we see Eevee, Lapras, and their treasure island, ready for display. The three sub-assemblies combine to form a cohesive scene, telling a complete story even without active play. With a display footprint of approximately 32.5 sq in (209.7 sq cm), it's a wonderfully compact and engaging build that captures the spirit of adventure and the beloved Pokémon characters, making it a proud centerpiece for any builder's collection.
