Today I'm reviewing an old set: 41017 Squirrel's Tree House. This set was the first to feature the squirrel. Anyway let's dive in.

The Build[edit | edit source]

Squirrel[edit | edit source]

200px Yay! Finally we get a LEGO squirrel. There's a hole in his tail for his cute azure heart bow. I don't know why it's his tail but hey. To show size ratio, I put him beside a mini-doll, and minifigure. Neither are included in the set.

Food[edit | edit source]

We get an amber bowl, with two studs on top of each other, to look like acorns (which it doesn't achieve).

Treehouse[edit | edit source]

The little tree house is so cute. It has a (sad) play feature, where you open the sides. It has lovely pieces: 4, 4x4 lime plates, yellow and cream hinge pieces, and lots of brown! Other than that there's nothing really left. :P

Overall, this is a cool set. I love how we finally get a squirrel, which can be used in lots of mocs. The set design is cute, but a bit odd. We get a lovely amount of pieces for 4$. I think it's a steal for $4, they could've easily just done a mini doll, and the animal for the same price. If you can find the set, you should consider buying it. If you can not find this set, I wouldn't kill myself trying to find it.

Anyways, thanks for reading my review! I hope you liked it <3 Soup

I really wish I hadn't missed this set.

Hopefully Squirrel Girl will appear in a Marvel set with a couple. :P
