"This was a fun build for my eight-year old. We were happy that there were so many pieces that give good value (about 10 cents a piece). My son was happy to get Alex, two mooshrooms and a creeper.
He says the baby mushroom is his favorite.
Interestingly, upon completing the build our son was so proud - he was carrying it to the Lego table downstairs and he dropped it. Luckily it stayed together with only minor repairs required!
In my opinion, this would be a great option for a friend's birthday gift."
