LEGO SET 71472 - Alternate build | Izzie's Narwhal Hot-Air Balloon

 

Beyond the Balloon: Creative Possibilities

With its pastel curves, printed panels and whimsical accessories, this set is a treasure trove for builders who love organic shapes and soft colors. You can:

  • Sail the high seas by converting balloon baskets into hulls and using hoses as rigging.

  • Craft sea creatures, from stylized turtles to majestic narwhals, simply by re-arranging curved panels.

  • Build fantasy frames for minifigures—knightly crusaders, arcane magi or draconic mounts.

  • Conjure eldritch horrors like Cthulhu-inspired demons using darker accent pieces.

  • Open your own Dreamzzz storefront, with market stalls, shops and display stands to show off small accessories.
