🔬 Welcome young scientist :

Today you are going to learn how to become a real scientist with equipment made entirely out of bricks !
If you like science, functional objects, or “trompe-l’oeil” builds, then you are in the right place !

Story :

First of all, do you really think we would have all these little colorful bricks to play with today without science ? Of course not, haha ! So I think that is already a good reason to take a closer look at the subject ! 🤓

On top of that, science plays a crucial role in our understanding of the world, and I truly believe that this set could be a way to give many people a second chance to reconnect with a subject they might have once found too complex in school 👀

Playability :

The set is made up of 4 elements/object families :

- The microscope : Although the lamp isn’t functional (since no light brick is available) and the macro/micrometric knobs turn freely (due to the small size of the set), the microscope actually works ! At the end of the optical tube, there’s a magnifying glass that really lets you zoom in on each element placed on the stage. There are 4 textures to observe here : a piece of wood, a piece of bamboo, some lettuce, and a slice of pizza haha 😋
- Test tubes and their stand : The test tubes can be arranged on their holder however you like, or removed for play. The stoppers can also be taken off, but be careful with the contents inside the tubes, it could be dangerous !
- The notebook : Even though it can’t be used in reality, it looks quite convincing from a distance and makes a perfect “trompe-l’œil” element in the scene. A big thanks to the “Tile 2 x 4 with Red Stripe Pattern (87079pb1326)”, which is just perfect for representing the red margin of the notebook !
- Pencils and utensils : These are also non-functional, but if you place them on a table without saying anything, I’m sure someone around you might try to write with or use them, because they blend so well into the scene. My family tested it and it was very funny to watch haha. To go into details, there are : 2 pencils, a pen, an eraser, a pencil sharpener, and a pipette.

In summary, whether it’s for decoration, play, or simply for fun, I think this set could please quite a lot of people !

Little bonus : the slides containing the samples for the microscope can be stored directly in the notebook ! 😮
