The LEGO® DUNGEONS & DRAGONS Mimic Dice Box was an immensely popular gift with purchase back in April 2024, and it's back again! If LEGO Insiders buy set 21348 Dungeons & Dragons: Red Dragon’s Tale between Monday 22 and Sunday 28 July, they will receive a Mimic Dice Box as a gift with purchase (GwP) while stocks last. Here's our mini-review!

the completed model DUNGEONS & DRAGONS Mimic Dice Box with its mouth closed and no visible tongue

This is a very cute GwP, even if you don’t play D&D. (Mimics are shapechangers and they just love pretending to be treasure chests!) It’s useful too - it’s fairly spacious inside.

The (four!) eyes are a new print, on orange round 1x1 tiles.

A hinge allows you to adjust the angle of the face which offers slightly different characterisations, and another hinge allows you to flip out a flippin’ awesome big blue tongue!

Even the chest itself is characterful, especially the chunky hinges at the rear.

Apart from the eyes, there are no exclusive recolours or rare elements… but I was immediately struck by how many useful parts are included, and there’s plenty of dark grey and reddish brown. A good parts pack, for the size of the set!

This cutie has stayed built on my desk since April… but I know sooner or later I'll need to steal some of those great parts!
