Mallards are a type of duck that I grew up seeing. The males have all kinds of coloring, including beautiful iridescent feathers on their backs. There are 2 ducks, one adult male, and I’m not sure what the other is supposed to be for this kit. The second duck is much smaller, so I don’t think it’s a female, but it is also entirely the wrong color to be a chick.
The adult male is straightforward. You start with a pair of bricks and build up from there. There are many colors in the build, creating the colors in the Mallard’s feathers. The head of the male is a little tricky because getting everything lined up can be challenging. It is also tricky to get attached to the body. The second duck is very straightforward with excellent directions.
Things I liked:
- That the ducks are on 1 plate to keep them safe
- The number of colors on the male duck
Things I didn’t like:
- Everything about the second duck.
