How do you think, what is more expensive? A read roasted turkey or it’s plastic miniature that you can hide in your palm? It turns out that the latter. Plastic LEGO turkey is one of the most expensive rare bricks. If appeared for the first time in few Scala sets in EarthOrange and it;s production was stopped 10 years ago. Because of that, turkey’s prices were slowly growing as the years passed.
Since the first photos of new 10193 set were out in late 2008, turkey dealers might get a bit nervous. Reintroducing the set with the turkey might end the yers of prosperity. Fortunatly for them, new piece is in different, darker shade of orange and the prices of old turkeys didn’t move a bit. We can expect that light ones will keep the high price, but the darker ones will become cheaper when more copies of the set are available on the market.
OK, so let’s go to some creations now. Bluemoose used the turkey in his vignette, showing how it’s assembled - from two drumsticks and a torso:
