Great Starter Set August 11, 2010
Steve Maiorca (Moorpark, CA United States)
A good starter set for youngsters moving up from the Duplo sets. Included pictures help kids to figure out what they might like to build, whether it's following the picture exactly or build something brand new. br /

Classic starter set for ANY age August 8, 2010
Kris #60;3 (New Jersey)

This is the lego set of kids dreams! Comes with many pieces in mixed sizes and colours. Also comes with a green plate in the top to display any of your lego creations. The box is sturdy, see-through top is a mom's best friend, and the collection that comes with this box does not fill it up to the top, so you can add additional Legos that you buy later or already have! GREAT STORAGE BOX, I absolutely love it! Box is not big or obnoxious for easy storage anywhere. If your kid loves Legos, and needs a great place to store them: Get this box! If your child is new to Lego: Buy this box, its a great starter set for any age!

Cute and fairly practical! June 15, 2010

I love that it has its own case! My nephew loves carrying it around. However, a few of the pieces are EXTREMELY small and were almost instantly lost. Definitely not for young kids! Overall though very cute and I would buy it again!

Lego Building Set -- Good in Some Ways, Bad in Others May 18, 2010
Edward Balen (Bradenton, Florida)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

There are both good and bad things about this Lego set. I feel the good and bad points are about equal. br / br /First, the good points. It has 405 pieces of which most are seven different colors and of great quantities. This facilitates the mixture of colored parts. br / br /Second, the bad points. It comes in a large bin, which is mostly filled with parts in five plastic bags. These bags are relatively hard for anyone to open. I mostly needed a scissor to do this. After the bags are opened and discarded, the pieces only fill a small portion of the bin. This is good and bad, meaning the bin is very lightweight and deceptive at point of purchase. The good part of this, is additional quantities of parts can be mixed with the initial set. This adds to the weight of the bin. However, simply doubling the set, which I have, only fills the bin slightly further. br / br /If you want a good starter set, buy this set. Know this however, you will want to expand this set by purchasing other Lego sets. In the meantime, Leggo my Lego and let us have fun building and creating.
