“70431 The Lighthouse of Darkness works well as a lighthouse set, albeit with a focus on the lighthouse's setting as well as the structure itself. It could even fit into a City layout. The transformation is fine but not great, so it is probably not worth purchasing just for... More the function. While not the best of the bunch, it is another worthy entry into the LEGO Hidden Side theme.”

“The Lighthouse of Darkness is another interesting Hidden Side set. I love how the rocky jetty and dock area has been done. The BURP and other elements perfectly combine to create a rugged looking base from the Lighthouse. Although the actual Lighthouse is a little cramped,... More it kind of needs to be in order to incorporate the gloomed elements, which I would say offers more playability than a larger interior would.”
