Lord Business' Evil Lair Reviews
“This set captures the comedy of the movie and incorporates all kinds of unique and humorous pieces that kids will find engaging and funny. Creating outrageous scenes inspired by the movie and the characters will keep players engaged. Kids who have seen the movie will be the... More most likely to enjoy this because they will know who the characters are, but it's not essential.”

“This set is a real stand-out of the wave. I don't love all the LEGO Movie sets, as you'll see once I review them all, but this one is truly great. The build is satisfying, the finished model has nice playability and generally looks great, the minifigures are wonderful, and... More the value is good too.”
