Title: 6687: Lost Island with Alien and Raptor
Post by: JLMatterer on October 12, 2015, 04:15:56
6687: Lost Island with Alien and Raptor is a FUN set from the Super 4 series. All the elements work well together & are visually entrancing. The little alien is especially charming, & the raptor is just wonderful. Overall, I'm pretty happy with this one & enjoy having it.

I love the sunlight in these pictures  :)  And I totally *want* that raptor!

I agree, the colourful vegetation is great.

This is a fun set. the colors of the raptor are great and I like Alien. The boomerang is fun too, don't see it in this photo set.
The palm tree leaves are a more rubbery plastic than I was expecting, similar in type to the regular palm tree leaves, just was thinking it would be a harder plastic than it is.

I've had a very hard time getting the boomerang to stay in Alien's hand. It kept springing out of the hand & I almost lost it twice in the grass. I didn't want to lose it, & since it's a small piece & it was windy that day, I put it away. I agree that its a neat little piece. :-)

The completely flat leaves of the palmtree are very strange....  did the Colossus sit on them?  :eh?:

Wow, there is such a thing that looks similar to this.

Nice set loving the colourful plants could be quite useful and that palm tree's really great interesting to hear that something like that exists in real life. The alien and raptor are nice as well  :)

Thanks for the info about that tree!  :o  I too hadn´t expected something like that would exist (on Earth). There is still a lot about (sub)tropical regions we aren´t much aware of.
