"A Recommended pocket-money polybag with a BrickScore of 76.8: reviewers from Brickset and JANG agree the debut Friends penguin mold alone justifies the sub-$4 price, and the surprising density of play features in 46 pieces makes it an easy pick for young fans and Friends completists."
Penguin's Playground (41043) is a 46-piece LEGO Friends pocket-money polybag that earns a BrickScore of 76.8 and a Recommended verdict, carried almost entirely by the debut of the Friends-line penguin animal mold. Both structured expert reviewers praised the set's compact playability and the significance of the new mold, while acknowledging the parts selection is otherwise unremarkable. Owner data is very thin at just one LEGO.com rating, so owner sentiment cannot be weighted meaningfully here.

"I'm quite disappointed with the colour selection here, but then the Antarctic isn't exactly renowned for its bright and colourful landscapes, and we are getting a penguin."

"The Friends collectables which first made an appearance last January have, I believe, been a huge success in filling a gap in the LEGO product range for girls' pocket money sets."
