Released for winter 2025, we have Lloyd’s Green Forest Dragon, given set number 71829. The set contains 2 minifigures and 1 baby dragon, has 128 pieces and retails for £17.99 or $19.99.
Opening the box, you will find 2 numbered bags and 2 large green dragon wings loose in the box, as well as your instruction manual.
Starting off with the minifigures, you get Lloyd, who just reuses old pieces. This is very disappointing to see, since there is a brand new Lloyd suit in Lloyd’s Pull-Back Race Car 71828, which is only a few pounds more. The minifigure itself does look nice, but it should not have been in this set.
Next up we have a Dragonian scout. He is a nice minifigure, but he does come in 4 sets altogether. He has a brilliant new armour piece and is a great minifigure to get a few extra of to build your army of them.
The star of the set is the new baby dragon, which is a recolour of the baby Riyu piece from 2023. This time, however, it has a few more eyelashes, suggesting it is female. The yellow colour of the dragon is also nice.
The actual forest dragon build is very nice, with posable legs, tail, wings and head. The head piece’s only problem is that it’s hollow on the inside. One nice thing about the dragon is that it uses a printed tile for the flag, which is used in a few other sets, but it is still a new print for 2025.
Overall, I would recommend this set when it goes on sale. £17.99 is a lot for just 128 pieces and a mid minifigure selection, but if you can find this set for around £13, then it is a good dragon build and the yellow baby dragon is a nice addition. Links to where you can buy the set are below.
