Awesome Elements for a Unique Line of Lego
" I love the Lego Elves Sets, as I find them a good blend of interesting elements, fun mini figures, and appealing to my favorite color schemes without being overly gendered toys. This particular set was no different. I'm extremely excited about the Elves sets, especially the goblins.
This particular set is no exception. I love all the moving elements, like the fan at the back of the airship, and the boomerang and little bow that shoots. It shoots far, but I can't imagine it causing any injury unless directly shot into an eye at close range. The wings move as well in a very cool manner. There's a hidden compartment, little "blasters" that move, and the gold rails are interesting pieces that are mildly flexible. The special plates on the balloon are excellent and unique. Putting it all together with the Technic pieces may be challenging for younger children, but I like sets which take me some time. It's certainly fun and looks cool on my shelf.
The little goblins are great. They're larger than the baby dragons (maybe 1.5x) from earlier sets which works well for playing. I like the goblin money elements and I can't wait to get their houses next. This little goblin glider looks awesome next to my other pieces.
My only complaint: I have so many elves sets that I get bummed that every mini figure has the same (or almost the same) clothes and hair when they appear again in another set. You can't just add new hair because the elves have ears that are part of the hairpiece, and the decorative elements on their face aren't present in non-elf sets. Also, ear skin tone can make for interesting combinations. I've got so many Airas, as well as the others, that I've started using acrylic paint to make the pieces different!

Fantastic for builders of all ages!
" I'm an adult builder who has been looking for a set like this her entire life. In fact, I love the functional pieces, colors, designs, and characters of all the elves sets. The portal was fun to make. It's challenging without being too hard, and it's fun to play with and beautiful to display!
