These 3-in-1 LEGO sets are designed to be built into a total of three different things, so they are often a great source of inspiration among the Rebrickable community. This alternative build uses a total of 297 pieces of the 336 set, so there are still a few pieces leftover. The version in the image above was created by MOC Designer <a href=\"https:\/\/rebrickable.com\/users\/CG_valphalk\/mocs\/\" class=\"link jsx-1337145738 jsx-3925284146 underlined\" data-cy=\"styled-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CG_valphalk<\/a>, and you can purchase the <a href=\"https:\/\/rebrickable.com\/mocs\/MOC-260618\/CG_valphalk\/31382-cubone\/#details\" class=\"link jsx-1337145738 jsx-3925284146 underlined\" data-cy=\"styled-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">full instructions for $15<\/a> at Rebrickable to learn how to build it yourself.<\/p>\n<div id=\"238458\">\n<div class=\"jsx-3980863763 catalog-wrapper\"><span data-cy=\"productcard-view-trigger\"><\/p>\n<div id=\"238458\" data-cy=\"solo-product-card\" class=\"solo-product SoloProduct_solo-product__r2_WP\">\n<div class=\"card jsx-722342313 jsx-3341285356 product-card SoloProduct_product-card__JSk8u\">\n<div class=\"product-thumbnail jsx-2285132617 SoloProduct_image__vqG4e\"><a href=\"https:\/\/zdcs.link\/Qd8Vx1?object_uuid=66375ddb-8460-4c90-98f7-8b5ae8294bd9&amp;t=article\" title=\"Cute Animals: Playful Puppy Dog\" class=\"jsx-3288811812 product-image aspect-ratio aspect-ratio-1-1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Cute Animals: Playful Puppy Dog\" class=\"progressive-image jsx-1809694635 jsx-2338608387 expand\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2026\/05\/06\/719vn-6fgol-ac-sl1500-1778099925799.jpg?width=220&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80\" data-cy=\"progressive-image\"><\/a><\/div>\n<div data-cy=\"solo-product-name\" class=\"name SoloProduct_name__s0XeA\">\n<h3 class=\"title5 jsx-62124236 jsx-2827240024 name balanced\">Cute Animals: Playful Puppy Dog<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<p><button class=\"button-text jsx-729543028 button jsx-3381835873 jsx-3347269829 icon-button catalog-upvote SoloProduct_catalog-upvote__FWsVx centered disabled\" disabled type=\"button\" title=\"Vote\" aria-label=\"Vote\" data-cy=\"catalog-upvote\"><span class=\"ign-icon icon-rating-like jsx-2750866048 jsx-2919720488\" role=\"presentation\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-cy=\"icon-rating-like\" style=\"background:currentColor\"><\/span><\/p>\n<div data-cy=\"caption\" class=\"caption jsx-1762799490\">1<\/div>\n<p><\/button><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-3449795453 divider SoloProduct_divider__dWiDk jsx-71571950\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"vendor SoloProduct_vendor__Znmjy\" data-cy=\"vendor\"><a href=\"https:\/\/zdcs.link\/Qd8Vx1?object_uuid=66375ddb-8460-4c90-98f7-8b5ae8294bd9&amp;t=article\" class=\"button-text jsx-729543028 button jsx-3381835873 button--vendor jsx-1792814278 jsx-4198390806 contained full-width small\" data-cy=\"vendor-link-btn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"interface jsx-326752785 vendor-text small\" data-cy=\"vendor-text-discount\"><span data-cy=\"vendor-msrp\" class=\"msrp\">$29.99<\/span> <!-- -->save 20%<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"button-text jsx-729543028 vendor-text small\" data-cy=\"vendor-text-full-price\">$23.99<!-- --> at <!-- -->Amazon<\/span><span class=\"ign-icon icon-top-right-arrow jsx-2750866048 jsx-4173866675\" role=\"presentation\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-cy=\"icon-top-right-arrow\" style=\"background:currentColor\"><\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>{&#8220;@context&#8221;:&#8221;http:\/\/schema.org\/&#8221;,&#8221;@type&#8221;:&#8221;Product&#8221;,&#8221;name&#8221;:&#8221;Cute Animals: Playful Puppy Dog&#8221;,&#8221;image&#8221;:&#8221;https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2026\/05\/06\/719vn-6fgol-ac-sl1500-1778099925799.jpg&#8221;,&#8221;offers&#8221;:{&#8220;@type&#8221;:&#8221;Offer&#8221;,&#8221;priceCurrency&#8221;:&#8221;USD&#8221;,&#8221;price&#8221;:23.99,&#8221;url&#8221;:&#8221;https:\/\/zdcs.link\/Qd8Vx1&#8243;,&#8221;seller&#8221;:{&#8220;@type&#8221;:&#8221;Organization&#8221;,&#8221;name&#8221;:&#8221;Amazon&#8221;}}}<\/p><\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/div>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Like any alternative build, it&#8217;s not perfect, but that doesn&#8217;t make it any less adorable. It&#8217;s also pretty cheap to build yourself all things considered. The instructions are $15, but the actual set itself is only $23.99 at Amazon right now. So you can put the whole thing together yourself for $38.99, which is quite a bit cheaper than any of the official Pok\u00e9mon sets.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">This also isn&#8217;t the only version of Cubone you can even build with this set.
