Minnie Mouse Reviews
The Brothers Brick
“Unless you're a big Mickey and Friends fan, then you'll probably be less than thrilled with these sets. LEGO recently lowered the price point of Brick Sketches to $16.99 US, which makes them feel a little less like a price-gouge. But that price is still way too high for what... More you get in the set – 12 to 16 cents per part, with no particularly rare or exciting elements and no minifigures.”
New Elementary
“There is definitely a charm to the stylized interpretation of these classic characters and creating two universally recognisable characters from a pile of shapes is a fun little building experience. I have to admit, the sets are a bit expensive for what they are. A couple... More extra rare parts, a printed tile with a Disney logo or maybe even a minifig complementary to the subject matter might improve the desirability of these sets, but they do have their charm.”
BrickFanatics
“While it's not the most conventional of LEGO sets, there is still a lovely aesthetic to 40457 Minnie Mouse. The combination of smooth tiles mixed with studs is a great look and gives the unmistakable appearance of LEGO, but it's still presented in a very unique style. As a... More relatively cheap and quirky display piece, especially when placed next to Mickey, it looks excellent.”
