The verdict

I picked this one up expecting a throwaway seasonal filler and ended up genuinely charmed by it.

The bunny's oversized ears and the little chick tucked into a nest of eggs give it real personality for such a small build, and it snaps together in a single relaxed sitting rather than dragging on. It is not a set that will challenge an experienced builder, and the price per piece is steeper than a big set, but that is the tax you pay for anything wearing a seasonal label. If you collect the small LEGO holiday builds or want a cheerful shelf piece for spring, this earns its spot. If you need hours of build time or heavy engineering, look elsewhere in the catalog.

Best for: Seasonal-set collectors and anyone who wants a quick, cheerful spring display piece

The full review

What it is

This is one of those small seasonal builds that LEGO quietly does really well. At 140 pieces it is never going to be a weekend project, but the design team clearly put thought into making a bunny and a chick that actually look like a bunny and a chick, not just a blocky approximation. The ears have a nice curve to them, the chick sits snugly in its nest of eggs, and the whole scene has a soft, storybook quality that works whether you are building it with a kid or just want a cheerful thing on your desk in April.

The catch

I will be straight with you about the caveats. Seasonal sets like this one carry a price premium relative to piece count, and 140 pieces will not occupy anyone for more than half an hour. It is also only around for part of the year through LEGO's seasonal release windows, so if you want it, do not wait too long once it shows up. This is a mood piece, not a technical showcase.

Who it's for

Get this if you like the small seasonal builds LEGO puts out around holidays, if you want a low-pressure build to do with a young kid, or if you are after a specific spring decoration for a shelf or table. Skip it if you are shopping for piece-count value or a build that will hold an experienced builder's attention for long.

The parts story

What the build is actually like, and the pieces worth knowing about.

The build itself is straightforward and quick, which is exactly the point of a set like this. You start with the bunny's body and work outward to the ears and little accent details, then build the nest and chick as a separate small module before bringing the two together into one spring scene. Nothing here is fiddly or frustrating, it is designed to be a pleasant, quick sit-down build rather than a puzzle.

For such a small set, the standout is really the shaping rather than any single rare part, LEGO leans on curved and sloped pieces to get the soft, rounded look of the bunny's ears and the chick's body without needing specialty molds. The color palette (soft pastels alongside the more common bright LEGO colors) is what sells the seasonal feel and is the main reason collectors of the small holiday builds pick these up year after year, more for the display value than for parts to raid for other builds.

Fun facts

01LEGO regularly releases a small seasonal Easter build in this size range and price point as part of its yearly holiday-adjacent lineup, alongside similar small spring sets in past years.
02At 140 pieces, this is designed to be buildable in a single short sitting, making it a common pick for parents wanting a quick, low-frustration build with younger kids.
03Seasonal sets like this typically have a limited retail window tied to the spring holiday period rather than staying in stores year-round like mainline sets.
