This post is a review of the nanoblock Moominmamma build. Moominmamma is part of the nanoblock Moomin collection.
Number: MOM-101
Difficulty Rating: 2/5
Moominmamma is one of the Moomins that live in Moominvalley. She is Moomintroll’s mother. In images, she is recognizable by the striped apron that she wears.
The build is broken up into 3 parts. There are the feet, the body, and the head.
The feet section is straightforward and is completed by adding the feet to the 10×10 base.
The next segment is the body. That portion of the body is building the striped apron. This is done using a lot of 1×1 bricks so it is important to keep the bricks straight. I really like that Moominmamma has the details of her tail and the ties for the apron. Other than making sure that the bricks are straight, the body goes up in straightforward layers.
The last segment is the head. Like the body, the directions are very straightforward. Keeping the depth of the head is a bit tricky from the directions.
The final step is to put all the segments together. I really liked the side view diagram that is in the directions. It made it very clear where to line up the body and head.
Things I liked:
- The side view diagram for finishing the build
- All the little details like the tail, apron ties, and handbag
Things I didn’t like:
- I think the front of her stomach looks a little odd with how it sticks out
