“There are some very unique parts here: the red maxifig head and hands, the headdress with feather and the black mirror as paddle. Even a red minifig head (without print) and a black pigtail hairdo! If it weren't for the unique angle this wouldn't have received four stars as... More overall rating, but since this is the only Indian set in the 'building set with people' theme it receives extra points for being special. This must have been one of the last western themed sets (there were some with those early minifigs) until, well, 'western' in 1996.”

BrickEconomy Expert Review
“This set features four Maxi figures, including two half-height versions seated in a canoe, all designed in a distinct red color scheme that stands out from other releases in the same theme. It focuses on simple character builds and accessories that highlight the early style of the building set with people line. As a regional release, it remains a notable example of how LEGO experimented with figure design during that era.”
 

About Building Set with People

Building Set with People ran from 1974 to 1980 with a majority of the sets released around 1977 and was a subtheme of the Homemaker brand designed to appeal primarily to girls. Most of the sets contained Homemaker Figures, also known as Maxi-Figs or Maxifigures, and the sets were about building items such as vehicles and room settings like a hospital, school classroom, a beauty salon or nursery for the figures and centered on domestic and suburban life-based settings. Building Set with People sets are typically vintage LEGO and such are very hard to come by in new and sealed packages.
