That is true when we discover how human-like they can be via scientific studies. It\u2019s also true when we\u2019re able to play games that give us a chance to think like a bird (the boardgame <a href=\"https:\/\/lafeber.com\/pet-birds\/popular-wingspan-board-game-to-offer-asia-expansion-set\/\">Wingspan<\/a> and its various add-ons editions). We enjoy artistic photos of birds in flight or stationery, and we love bird art. We even love the occasional <a href=\"https:\/\/lafeber.com\/pet-birds\/ultimate-avian-artworks-lego-macaw-build-kits-offer-fun-decor\/\">LEGO build kits<\/a> that come our way here and there. But here\u2019s a project that incorporates not only LEGO-like pieces but also adds mechanical pieces to animate the bird. OK, my attention is captured. How about yours?<\/p>\n<p>JMBricklayer is a LEGO-like brand that utilizes the same concept of fitting multi-colored bricks of all shapes and sizes into magnificent creations. And like LEGO, their provide a high-quality experience that is fun to work with and a shareable experience for the entire family. An extra in the JMBricklayer models is that some are mechanized and\/or provide lighting to add an exciting immersive effect to the completed build.<\/p>\n<h3>A Mechanical Parrot<\/h3>\n<p>Their newest parrot model is called The Mechanical Parrot. In addition to the interlocking bricks, the model provides mechanics that allow for movement of the wings, the ability to adjust the tail, and movement of the foot joints, all on a stable base. See a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=P6X0jC7k7wg\">completed build<\/a> at the JMBricklayer YouTube channel.<\/p>\n<p>This new model (70154) set in the box provides 688 bricks that complete this parrot build and a detailed 32-page booklet. The bricks\u2019 colors are vibrant and project an appreciable reproduction of a parrot. After the completed build, one half of the parrot is designed to replicate a parrot naturally, while the other half is that of a mechanized parrot.<\/p>\n<p>To add to the quality, a green light via a thin tube is added to the parrot so that when a knob on the side of the parrot is turned, a green light emits to add a mysterious charm to the bird. The \u201cmecha\u201d side of the bird provides a transparent green wing to give it an extra exciting appearance. The finished set stands a little over 10 \u00bd inches tall and a little over 2\u00bd inches wide.<\/p>\n<p>Reviews for this Mechanical Parrot box have been excellent. With a package that can be built with your children (or all by yourself, of course), you can take as long as you like to savor the project. Or you can fast build it and begin to enjoy the unique creation right away. It will display nicely just about anywhere you want to place it. It would look especially nice as a nightlight for a child\u2019s room after they built the package with you.<\/p>\n<p>This unique Mechanical Parrot build is priced at $24.99 with shipping and taxes included within that price point. You can get your own project box directly from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jmbricklayer.com\/product\/mechanical-parrot-70154\/\">JMBricklayer<\/a>. As of this writing, the company is offering an additional 20% for their mid-year sale. Should you decide to get one for yourself or your child, we hope you enjoy the experience of assembly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bird lovers, prepare to be captivated by JMBricklayer&#8217;s latest creation: The Mechanical Parrot.
