Opinion
The Australia Postcard by LEGO captures a successful play of colors found in the Outback. With its simplicity, it represents the barren landscape of Australia, and the design and 3D view are quite impressive.
The play with proportions is fascinating: On the eucalyptus tree sits a yellow-crested cockatoo that is bigger than the passing airplane. The house and windmill are in between. It is quite unfortunate that LEGO has once again opted for stickers. The Kangaroo sign as printed piece would have been really exciting. On the other hand, the Bamboo Leaves in Sand Green are a real highlight.
For people with a connection to Australia, it is certainly appealing to display the postcard, and as a collectible, it is equally an exciting set. However, 15 euros is a bit high for what I ended up with. Nevertheless, I can imagine that collecting these postcards has its charm. Visually, it is a true highlight.
