Octopod (Qiji 3708)

About this set

This is the Octopod from KEEPPLEY's Octonauts line, set 3708, listed on the box at 698 pieces and 3+ Years with a 2/5 difficulty, so it is a very approachable scene build. The model is mainly orange with grey, blue, green and white accents, and the Octopod body sits on a base platform; the multiple transparent dome chambers are the most striking part of the silhouette. The box also notes Minifigs X4, so you get four figures plus a detachable small vehicle, matching the explore, rescue and protect theme on the packaging. Build the base platform first, then stand up the main structure, and finish with the transparent chambers and the small vehicle; at 2/5 the steps stay direct, and the only real care needed is lining up the clear parts so the clutch seats cleanly. It suits younger Octonauts fans and anyone after a bright, clearly structured small display set, and at 698 pieces it will not take up much shelf space once finished.
