“This is a fun way to add to a LEGO collection for even more creative building, and while kids will certainly have fun building the models in the instruction booklet (an octopus chef is pretty silly!), they will also love using their imaginations to build all sorts of... More different creations.”
Full review at ttpm.com
“I absolutely love this set, it has incredible value. You get a considerable amount of pieces for a reasonable price. To put it in perspective: you get about 10 more classic bricks than the medium creative box.”
