I bought this kit used, knowing I would at least get the instructions. I ended additionally getting all the bricks to complete the kit. Sadly, however, the white has become yellow with age. The discolored bricks may be visible in my photographs.
The build begins with the body of the dog. I was able to lay the body out on my nanoblock pad.
Next, the head is built. The head is fairly straightforward. Once completed, the head is a little square, in my opinion, which doesn’t look like the actual dog breed.
The last step for the dog is to build and attach the legs. The Hokkaido Dog kit comes with a display base.
In addition to the dog, there are also bricks to create a dog bowl with kibble. The bowl is very simple to build. The kibble in the bowl is just loose bricks tossed into the bowl. I don’t like it when there are loose bricks in a completed build because I worry that the bricks will get lost.
Things I liked:
- I like the shape of the tail and the detail of the collar
Things I didn’t like:
- The food in the bowl is just loose bricks that can easily fall out. I don’t like it when there are loose bricks
