Review: 41358 Mia's Heart Box

Best camping shelter ever! Mia's Heart Box lid as a campfire site is more like glamping. It's stylish and colorful with all her outdoor adventure supplies, plus a furry friend!

This set was provided by the AFOL Engagement of The LEGO Group for the purpose of sharing set details with fans. Opinions provided here solely reflect those of our reviewer. Photographs are property of FriendsBricks and are not directed by TLG in any fashion.


Front of this heart-shaped LEGO box shows real girls using walkie-talkies with a flag-topped mountain circular graphic inset above them. It's not Mia's icon per se, however it is similar to the Camp Heart logo from 2016.
The product image shows Mia using her heart top as a camping site. Inset shows how everything fits into this container we build. Yet, we will have to adjust one built item -- you'll find out in the end.


Box back has the rainbow heart motif with all 5 main Friends in graphic form, which is on the front of all other boxes.
The set built image shows her using her heart box as shelter at a camp site. Her wee bunny Cinnamon shows us the element 1:1 size ratio.
All 5 Friends in their graphic form along the bottom are above each individual heart box -- sorry you can't see Emma's for the 'not for sale' sticker, due to this being sent from Denmark, as I'm in North America. Yet you can see it as the top heart box depicting how we can stack them all.

Review: 41357 Olivia's Heart Box

Tablet, wrench & robot ... some of Olivia's favorite things. Plus chocolate!
Our "techie" Friend has a mini version of Zobo for this succinct set shaped like her original icon: a Heart!

Box front of this clever heart-shaped box has real girls with their "maker" projects -- a wooden gear of course, since it's Olivia's icon. The circle inset graphic above them has a series of inter-connected gears to represent her.
The product image shows Olivia on her heart's lid with her tablet and robot Zobo -- in miniature form. From one of the side facets we can see Olivia ... yet someone else is hiding.


Box back has Olivia taking a chocolate break inside her heart box. Her (somewhat rare) printed Tablet device is used for the 1:1 size ratio for product information.
The bottom features all 5 Friends graphic versions above each of their own heart boxes -- and then they are stacked.

Review: 41356 Stephanie's Heart Box

Stephanie is ready to serve up a tennis ball -- then fuel up on pizza and wash it down with cool water! She's our sporty Friend and has the trophy to prove how much she loves winning!

The front of this delightfully heart-shaped box shows real girls with sporting equipment. The circle graphic inset of balls and a racket represent Stephanie's favorite activities. Although it isn't specifically her signature icon, which is a star.
The product image has her ready to serve a tennis ball, and the inset shows that everything fits into this brick-built container.


Box back features the standard 5 Friends in their rainbow heart graphic and product image of Stephanie ready to fuel-up on pizza! Her trophy demonstrates the size ratio for items.
Across the bottom are all five Friends who have their own heart boxes, and an image showing them all stacked.

Review: 41355 Emma's Heart Box

Artsy Emma has some of her creative tools for travel in this adorable purple Heart Box!
Plus, a cupcake -- because artists shouldn't be starving, right?

Box front shows real girls enjoying Emma's hobbies, with her signature paintbrush and palette motif graphic inset above. Below that is a cat sketch :-)
The photo of the set shows Emma with accessories on her heart's lid. The inset image shows we can store everything inside this brick-built storage box.


Box back gives us the standard Friends heart rainbow inset that's on the front of all boxes. This set image shows she can fit inside. Her tiled drawing of Chico gives us our size ratio of elements.
Then the row of all Friends cameo graphics above their own heart boxes. They are stack-able too.

Review: 41354 Andrea's Heart Box

Andrea is always ready to share her voice, and the Heart Box interior probably provides good acoustics! This vibrant brick-built container in her signature colors has her name printed on a tile adorned with her winged music note motif!

This set was provided by the AFOL Engagement of The LEGO Group for the purpose of sharing set details with fans. Opinions provided here solely reflect those of our reviewer. Photographs are property of FriendsBricks and are not directed by TLG in any fashion.


Box front of this new type of Heart-shaped design features real girls enjoying Andrea's music interest. Top right is adorned by her winged music note with stars streaming in a round insert graphic.
The package designers managed to add traditional purple flanges - one side for set number then Andrea singing on the other. Her built box displayed with her standing on the lid, and then tucked away into her heart box are great photographs of the set.
It almost doesn't need a review ... well, I said "almost" because I'm going to anyway. Since we have new for 2019 parts!


Box back gives us another photograph of the set, and the size ratio for product by using the ice cream cone parts. We have all the 5 Friends along the bottom with their respective boxes -- plus a photo demonstrating you can stack them.
The upper right heart motif indicates a standard theme, yet is usually on the front of boxes. Just below that you can see the arched seam where the heart cutout cardboard top glued part ends and the cavity for contents begins.
At the very bottom you can see tape over the 2 slotted folds where we open this clever heart-shaped box ... so we can "build" a brick heart-shaped box :-)
