Set 70144, “Laval's Fire Lion”, depicts a fire themed lion associated with Laval in the Legends of Chima universe. Released in 2014, it belongs to the root theme Legends of Chima and contains 450 pieces for a creature vehicle build.

“Laval's Fire Lion” is part of Legends of Chima, a theme built around animal tribes, conflict and the power of Chi. The model focuses on Laval and presents the lion identity of his faction through a constructed creature with a clear fire related design language.

Mungus adds a larger figure format to the character selection, while the Fire Chi versions connect the included characters to this specific phase of the theme.
