"A single hop can carry you farther than a hundred careful steps." - Meadow proverb

Hi there! Please enjoy my submission: a kinetic bunny in joyful mid-leap through a field of flowers. It's a super satisfying mechanism, all four paws soar in one smooth, continuous bound. Turn the crank and it comes alive! There's also a ˗ˏˋ bonus ˎˊ hidden compartment in the base (I love hidden features) for all your bunny treasures.

Why I Built It

Kinetic LEGO builds fascinate me because they blur the line between engineering and expression. A compact Technic mechanism converts the crank's rotation into a natural bounding motion, synchronising the legs and body into one fluid cycle, all fully hidden inside the landscape so the animation takes center stage.

To me, rabbits are cute and energetic, so I wanted to channel that through clever mechanics and a warm design. Technic precision tucked inside a posable, beautifully constructed character. At under 1000 parts it works equally well as a desk toy, or a mechanical curiosity for builders interested in how things move.

Why It Would Make a Great Set

Satisfying to operate. A smooth-turning crank animates the rabbit in a natural gallop that never gets old.
Display-worthy. Soft colours and expressive eyes make it a genuine pleasure to show off on a shelf.
Built to teach. It's a great entry point for builders curious about motion, linkage and Technic functions hidden inside a character build.
Feel-good all year. Springtime scenery, hidden accessories and a secret drawer give it layers for you to discover.

"They say each spring, the meadow sings a tune only a true heart can hear. The meadow doesn't choose the biggest, or the bravest — just the ones bold enough to leap."

If you got this far, thank you! For me, the joy of building is universal; I hope you enjoyed considering my submission as much as I enjoyed creating it ♥ Built by: @clicklever with the help of Jackson Shapiera & Branko Dijkstra.
