Ecosystem

21342 The Insect Collection — Where 31211 Macaw Parrots is an artistic representation of the birds rather than a detailed one, 21342 The Insect Collection packs in every minute characteristic of the bugs with faithful attention to detail. 31211 is better for those seeking artistic interpretation.

31210 Modern Art — 31210 Modern Art is another impressive addition to the theme with the ability to tweak the design as you please, making it versatile and boasting a much more engaging build process than 31211 Macaw Parrots. 31210 has higher build engagement.

Previous Art sets — Unlike previous Art sets that can simply be propped up against something to display them, this one has to be either laid flat or hung on a wall, representing a departure from the dot-matrix approach.

LEGO Botanical Collection — The Fauna Collection follows in its footsteps with animal-based sets rather than plant-based; the branch with the yellow parrot edges into the realms of LEGO Botanical Collection sets aesthetically
