    41019 Turtle's Little OasisThis is the third of the Friends collectable animals polybags, 41019 Turtle's Little Oasis.

    The oasis is actually a very cool beach hut which I'm sure the turtle will be very comfortable in.

    I thought the white clam shell was new but it's actually the more common colour according to BrickLink. Nevertheless, it's the first one I have.

    41019 Turtle's Little OasisLike the squirrel and cat, the turtle is impossibly cute, and also like the others, looks silly with a bow, and as it obscures much of its face, I've removed it for this photo.

    Now I've built all three, I'll give you my marks out of 10:

    Squirrel -- 9, the best parts pack and most interesting structure.
    Cat -- 7, cute kitty but light on parts.
    Turtle -- 8, cool model, nice parts.

    They are all very good and a welcome addition to the Friends range.

These Friends set might sucker me in to buying some, for some of the unique parts especially the animals. Its refreshing to see Lego releasing better quality animals; I especially liked the farm animals from 7189 Mill Village Raid

Why would a creature that spends its entire life at sea and only ever comes ashore to lay eggs need a beach hut? Also the 'Friends' seem to have forgotten to take their rubbish home from the beach and the poor thing has some sort of plastic detritus stuck on its head. Don't they know these animals are highly endangered? How about curtailing those speedboat escapades? That's what happens when you live in a city with an abundance of leisure activities and inadequate civil amenities or law enforcement.

Sorry, am I doing it wrong? ;-)

These will make a great addition to my zoo plan. Hopefully this will show up in my local stores.

Joefish- If only the law enforcement was like that in lego city- a police station on every street!

I would probably put the Squirrel and Turtle with the same score. While the squirrel house is great, 2/3 of my kids really wanted the turtle set. They really enjoyed the beach hut.
