“This is a fine set, a set whose bare parts/price ratio does not accurately reflect the intricacy of its design nor the rarity of its parts.”

“This set is definitely a must have if you're a LEGO collector. It has lot's of valuable pieces and some awesome play features. It also has a nice boat and a jeep which has two seats. We also get a campfire on the front of this temple. On the other side you get a place where... More you can hide some gold. The next play feature is that the bridge can fall into the river if you move the lever.”
