The Ice Spikes Reviews
Is this LEGO set a good investment?
“While the annual growth has been slightly declining over the last year, we still believe that The Ice Spikes is a good set to invest in if you collect Minecraft sets. Over the last several years, The Ice Spikes has averaged an annual growth of just around 9% and is expected to decline no more than one or two percent in the next couple of years, while Minecraft sets have an average annual return of around 6%.”

The Brick Fan
“Overall, it is a decent set with a variety of new or rare parts that builders may enjoy. As for the set itself, it's not a bad model although the ice columns are somewhat simple and repetitive. The play features are also lacking but as with other Minecraft sets, you can... More rearrange some of the areas to give it a whole different look.”
Little Brick Root
“The last bag builds out the second ice spire and all the other details, like the enchantment station. Much like the Nether Railway set, the model can be rearranged by swapping the modules around. There is also a fun play feature that allows Steve to animate his snow golem to... More protect the area (much as they did in the Iron Golem set). This was another great set for Minecraft fans and has all the makings of an excellent parts pack for AFOLs.”
