"With a BrickScore of 43.7, Fly with Dodo Airlines earns its lukewarm verdict: gorgeous pad-printed minifigures and a charming seaplane can't disguise an open-backed, half-built airport that feels incomplete at nearly $40 — both reviewers say wait for a sale."
Both reviewers agree that 77051 Fly with Dodo Airlines is a mixed-to-disappointing entry in the Animal Crossing line, with its ~$38 price tag delivering too little for the money. The minifigures — Tangy, Wilbur, and Rodrigue — are consistently praised as well-designed and collector-worthy, but the builds themselves feel half-finished, sparse, and rushed. All decorations are pad-printed with no stickers, which earns genuine appreciation, yet the open-back airport, tiny beach section, and absent key character Orville undercut the set's appeal beyond diehard fans.
Where they split: Hoth Bricks was more forgiving overall (verdict: 60), crediting the modular system logic and display potential; Jay's Brick Blog was considerably harsher (verdict: 30), emphasizing the sparse build and Orville's omission as near-dealbreakers. They agree on the minifigure quality and the wait-for-sale recommendation, but diverge significantly on how much the display value redeems the set.
