“It looked amazing when finished. I like the look of the igloo but I dislike how even a short minifigure can't stand up inside, but I guess it would look weird if they made it any taller. This set is a nice Christmas scene for your winter village. It is particularly useful as... More you need at least one house in a village!”

“For the price, you can't beat this set. You get a ton of figures and a bunch of different pieces. There's plenty of fun stuff for kids to play with - and plenty of loose mini-builds for adult collectors to arrange as it suits them. Of all the sets that I've built (and... More reviewed) for this blog thus far, I think this set has one of the highest play values...and amazingly, it's just as a good for adult collectors.”

“The cottage itself is large and well designed, while I don’t like the tiling I do think it’s worth it as the floor looks excellent. The kitchen had a number of nice features, though a new mixer would have been nice. Overall it’s a great build though I do wonder if the... More cottage is to big for the other sets but as they’re packed away at the moment I can’t put them side by side and compare.”
