PICNIC2023-01 - Picnic little car. A fun novelty item

The LEGO set PICNIC2023-01 Picnic Delivery Car is a cheerful little building set that wonderfully captures the iconic look of the Picnic delivery van. With only 134 pieces, this set is a fun and playful addition to both LEGO and PICNIC fans!


First Impression

The set comes in a small box, distinguishable by the characteristic Picnic design. The content is pretty basic.

Picnic Little Car


Building Experience

The building process is simple and clear for young builders. Although it's an "okay" experience, the quality of the instruction manual leaves something to be desired. It's not an official LEGO set, so the instruction manual is not as sharp as we're used to from LEGO. In terms of building techniques, the set offers nothing groundbreaking and is even somewhat weak. The LEGO is stacked straight on each other on the sides, causing some lack of strength in the design. It is a straightforward process without repetition, which makes sense given the small size of the set.


Details and Design

The Picnic delivery van has a realistic and recognizable design, despite the playful addition of 'eyes' to the front. These give the vehicle a funny look, but do not contribute to authenticity.

A fun detail is that the front can open. However, the lack of a real boot is a miss; to place something in the van, this has to be done from the top.


Playability

The set does not include any noticeable play features or interactive elements, but the vehicle itself does invite play. It definitely works for children who would like to reenact their own delivery service. My son had fun with it.


Price-Quality Ratio

I received this car as a gift and therefore it's hard to judge the price-quality ratio. Given its small size and number of parts, this set seems more focused on marketing purposes than on value for LEGO collectors.


Overall Verdict

The PICNIC2023-01 Picnic Delivery Car is a fun novelty item for LEGO and Picnic enthusiasts. The building process is simple and enjoyable, but the finish, such as the instructions and lack of unique features, leaves room for improvement.


Final Verdict

This little car is a funny and recognizable set that is easy to assemble and looks nice. However, it's not special, and the quality of the instructions diminishes the experience somewhat.


Recommendations

This set is a fun gift for children or a funny addition to your LEGO collection if you're a fan of Picnic. For similar sets, you can look at small vehicles in the LEGO City series, which often offer more play options and better finishing.
