Fun Set to Build Overall
" My daughter and I built the Heartlake Private Jet together, and overall we found it to be a pretty nice set. The plane is a good size for playing with, so my daughter enjoys playing with it with her other Friends sets. We thought it was a little overpriced for the size of the set, but there are some interesting and creative pieces, including a laptop, purse, and briefcase along with some pretty interesting sticker.
I would have liked for the design to have included stairs onto the plane somehow, but it's not a big deal.
Overall, it is a good set with nice playability.

Great Friends Jungle Set To Go Along With Others
" My 7-year-old daughter is a big fan of the Friends sets, and she built this one today after getting it for Valentines Day. Overall it was a fun little build for her, and it goes great with the other Friends Jungle and Animal themed sets.
Her highlights were definitely:
1. The moving parts- the hatch that lets pieces fall through to the ground and the moving door.
2. The motorcycle.
3. The monkey and banana, of course.
4. The walkie-talkie.

The one thing that I think could have been a little more well-finished are the pieces that fall through the hatch...are they rocks? Coconuts? Something else? It is difficult to tell, and they easily could have been made as special pieces that would have improved the playability of the set.
Still, another fun set in the Friends line.

Fun little Micro-build!
" My (5-year old) son got this set this morning for Valentines Day since he had been eying it for a while. He recently build the Micro Snowspeeder and wanted to try his hand at building another one by himself.
As is the norm with the little sets, the pieces are small and there is one minifig. The finished product looks great, and I'm sure it will see lots of play in the coming weeks.
Overall, this is a great little set and definitely worth picking up.

Great Star Wars Set
" My 5 and a half year old is really into Star Wars. And really into Legos. So when his grandparents got him the Millennium Falcon for Christmas it was the perfect present. While this set was a little above his age level, me and his sister (age 7) sat down with him each day when I came home from work and worked together sorting and putting the set together. Great family fun!
My son's favorite thing is the key areas that he remembers from the old trilogy, along with the shooting missiles and the crossbow that Chewy has. My favorite parts are all of the computer details on the inside, as well as the character minifigs. That, and the great time the kids and I had putting it together.
I do wish there was a hatch on the bottom/ side that the kids could play with and that the stand was a little higher. Overall, I love this set. The kids have since built the Advanced TIE prototype and the Snowspeeder...so lots of Star Wars battles now take place in the play-room.
The grandparents who gave the gift loved Star Wars back in the day...now I think I'll have to get them a Sandcrawler or a Slave 1 for them next Christmas.
