LEGO set 40788, Friendly Snails, depicts a brick built animal subject focused on friendly looking snails. It is listed under the root theme LEGO Ideas and CUUSOO, belongs to 2025, and contains 264 pieces.
Friendly Snails sits within LEGO Ideas and CUUSOO, a theme associated with building ideas and fan inspired concepts. Set 40788 uses a natural, decorative subject, making the snails the main focus without relying on a named story license or an established character universe.
The set includes 264 pieces and no minifigures. Its build is therefore centered on the animals themselves and on shaping their forms with LEGO elements, rather than on a character driven scene. The supplied data does not identify specific mechanical functions or named accessories, so it is best described in general terms as a buildable display model.
Friendly Snails can work as a shelf display, a quiet animal themed play model, or an addition to a LEGO Ideas and CUUSOO collection. Within the theme, it belongs with self contained models that are immediately defined by their subject, rather than with large scenes or sets built around a narrative.
