The Mountain Cave Reviews
Is this LEGO set a good investment?
“Over that last few years The Mountain Cave has been a particularly good investment for Minecraft collectors with an annualized growth of upwards of 14.5% per year. However, there is market indication that the set will experience a slight annual growth decrease in the coming years, but this should be only by a few percentage points at most. When compared to the vast majority of set in the Minecraft theme, this set is still an excellent investment for collectors.”
Review brought to you by BrickEconomy Bot
“All in all, The Mountain Cave is an excellent set for LEGO Minecraft fans, and it is also a great parts-pack of basic LEGO elements. The construction is very solid, and the play-features are fun and interesting. I would have perhaps liked to have a bit more modular sections... More like in some of the other LEGO Minecraft sets, however because the cave is hollow inside and need structural stability, I think LEGO designers did the best they could with the layout.”

“The scale of The Mountain Cave is certainly quite impressive and I love that the focal part of this set is an amazing minecart track with an integrated redstone-powered minecart elevator, and an array of other features and functions, including TNT blasting, rotating... More spider-spawner, charged Creeper explosion and a lava burst.”
