Strong Tractor
" What can I say, It was a good build. I mean, the only negative was tying the rope part to the hook, but its pretty cool how you can tow logs with it. I was at first hesitant to get the tractor due to the front not being a bucket, but it wouldn't hurt to try something new. It doesn't disappoint, it can pick up the logs decently, you do have to push the logs a little tho. Overall, it has decent features. "

To the Rescue
" This helicopter goes well with the Fire Plane, First Responder, and Airport Rescue. The only negative about the helicopter is the two pointy red pieces at the top on the side as they are little wobbly and move easily. The rope was a little annoying to knot and tie. Its cool that there is a little bed, too, but I wish there was a little more room to put the bed inside of the helicopter. Goes well with the emergency vehicles "

"Cruise"in
" This was a pretty easy build. It does look really cool. One pro about it is that it doesn't wobble back and forth like the Yacht as the 3 wheels at the bottom level it out. Its cool the motor and propeller move as you move it. The price is pretty good. I'd recommend if you like boats and the Yacht as well "

For England, James!
" When I saw this set, I thought it may have been too blocky, but after I got it for Christmas, It is not as bad, Being a James Bond fan is why I asked for it. The gadgets make it interesting. The only two negatives I had is why the ejector seat is the passenger, and not the driver? Also attaching the front windshield to the white bar in front of engine is a bit flimsy. Overall, a set worth getting if your a Bond fan. The names Bond. James Bond! "

Blown away!
" Let me first say that the size is quite impressive. If you dont think the money spent is worth, well let me tell you it is. Despite the low piece count, the fact that the bags are not numbered makes it longer to build, which makes it somewhat equivalent to a set with many pieces that you are building with numbered bags. You will forget about the price once you start building by how unique of a set it is with working lights and how it works and looks. The only negative is when you are building the spinning Black piece at the top it trys to force you to move the cord through the tiny space. In order to do that. You have to remove either the white 3 hole technic or the two small gray technics in order to slip it through which is wierd as you have to put it on first. The other negative is buildingg the spinning rotor which you have to mess around with the propeller gray pieces as the rod is quite difficult to move through the small holes. The Vestas box at the top is a little flimsy too. Overall, the height is impressive and how it looks will make you forget about the price. "

Great Forklift, Small flaw
" I'll first start off in general saying this is a great forklift and good playability. I must say there is a flaw with the forks and little string. When you try to lift the tan piece with the hazard material on it. You'll notice the front of the fork leans forward due to the weight, so it slides off once you go too high. It looks like the string is the only thing keeping it attached to the mast. t's still a fun set though. "

Lady Liberty
" I've been to the Statue a Liberty a few years ago. It was really something then, This set was added to my Architecture section. Overall, the repetition is mainly to the plinth section. There is very minimal, if any repetition on the statue build. Be careful on those little small green pieces on part of the body, as I can see why it can be tricky to mess it up. I was impressed with the height and size, a little bit bigger than I expected. The face could've been a little better, but it's not really bothersome if you don't think about it and from a distance, not really noticeable. Overall, a great set. "

Great Display and Build
" The Taj Mahal building process took a lot less time to build than I thought. The Ghostbusters head quarters took about 14 hours and the Taj is over 1000 more but yet I completed in the same amount of time. This thing is really repetitive but it's well worth the patience. Although the bags 5,6,7.8 get annoying doing the same thing 4 times. I actually swapped back and forth, such as doing bag 5, then one from bag 9 and 10 (the sides of the mausoleum) to bag 6, back to bag 9, back to 7. Although still repetitive, it makes it seem a little less repetitive if you do it that way. the set is about 90% repetitiveness, the only part that is not repetitive really is in the square base. (Bags 1 and 2) are nearly identical in repetitiveness, but the stairs stick out more, Bag 4 has the 4 minarets and that build goes quick. Also parts of building the roof were not the same over and over. Over all, the sets displays great and it is a eye catcher. I would recommend this product as its features are quite detailed and nice to see it on shelves again. "

I call it the SS Georgie
" I ordered this when it came out, came about 3-4 days later. Really the only negative was the sails was a little crumbled up probably from being in a box with other things. Had to be careful with taking the plastic off the sails. Good to say that this set does not disappoint. The cranks are cool to spin to move the sail. I'm not a fan of the steering wheel moving side to side, but it's not an issue. Its a decent size and height and it's still a pretty cool set. "

Will Not Disappoint
" The little guy is amazing! It doesn't disappoint. In the early building after the platform, there is some small repetitive parts, but it looks really nice when it's all done. "
