The LEGO Elves The Dragon Sanctuary (41178-1), a 588-piece set from 2016, depicts the critical location where elves and dragons reconnect. The model features a detailed 3-level sanctuary structure with a waterfall and dedicated space for baby dragon eggs. Included are Aira and Tidus mini-doll figures, accompanied by Gust, the majestic 4-winged wind dragon, and Rayne, the playful baby water dragon. Play functions include a working elevator, operated by a lever behind the wall, and a raft launcher for Tidus to fish or Rayne to slide down. A revolving rock wall hides passages, while a secret sliding platform allows interaction with Gust. Notable accessories like the sacred horn, a dragon cherry tree, and a telescope enhance the narrative. This detailed build incorporates SNOT elements for intricate rock work and Technic axles for the elevator mechanism, forming a central Elves display piece.
