Adventurers Raft Featuring Jenny Thunder

Introducing... Jenny Thunder!

For this entry, I have based my model on set 1182 Adventurers Raft (1999). I have updated the set with modern and more sophisticated build techniques, including using Technic elements, SNOT, NPU, stud reversal, printed tiles and a female lead character.

Growing up, my favourite LEGO themes were Adventurers and Pirates. I loved to recreate the daring exploits of Johnny Thunder and Captain Red Beard. However I was disappointed that the main protagonists were always male - female characters were rare. Females (if present at all) were relegated to being sidekicks, minor characters or, worse still, the love interest.

In this fresh take on a classic set, I have reimagined the Adventurers theme with a strong, female lead. The build uses a diorama style with base for added display-ability. It also includes some hidden Easter Eggs.

I hope you enjoy my tribute-with-a-twist to the classic Adventurers theme from the 90s and 00s.
