One of the best ships and sets ever!
" The Lego Ninjago Movie Destiny's Bounty is an absolutely incredible set. To start, the regular retail price is a great value compared to the piece count. In terms of the actual set, it's a masterpiece. When completed the ship is pretty big, comparable in size to the Silent Mary and other Lego ships of old. It includes all of the ninja minifigures and Master Wu, as it should. They each come with their respective accessories, plus the standard extras.
The detail and construction are superb. It consists of an almost entirely brick built hull, a lower section packed with details and accessories that pay homage to Ninjago. Then there's the main deck that includes many details and play features. The mini dojo area can be removed to access the lower deck. On top of the dojo section is the highest deck, which includes the steering wheel. There are so many little features and details packed in to every level of this ship. It's amazing.
I can't recommend this set enough. If you're a Lego Ninjago fan, it's an absolute must-have. If you're a fan of ships in general, it's a must-have. And if you like detailed and well-crafted Lego sets, this is a must-have. Most all of the sets from the Lego Ninjago movie have been surprisingly great, and this is no exception.

Great fun, great minifigures!
" As you might expect, this set has been a huge hit. It consists of 4 "classic" spacemen, one of which is Benny in blue, while the other 3 have rhyming names. The pink spaceman is a brand new color not offered before. As a result, this set has a huge appeal for AFOL's and fans of the classic space theme. The builds themselves are rather easy and aren't anything too special, but they do reflect the classic space theme quite well.
I definitely recommend this set. It's a cheap way to get not only Benny but 3 other classic spacemen, with Pink being a brand new color! "

Four awesome sets make one big awesome set!
" This Ultimate Batmobile is simply amazing. It's a combination of four smaller bat-vehicles. It includes a Batmobile, Batcycle, small Batwing, and Battank. All of the individual vehicles on their own are really well made, even the small Batcycle. They also combine brilliantly to form the large Ultimate Batmobile, which itself looks amazing. They fit together perfectly, and it's hard to tell where they come apart, which shows how well designed this is. In addition, you get several exclusive minifigures, including Alfred in his suit and the flying monkeys from the Wizard of Oz.
Overall this is a great set. It's fun to build and play with, either in the smaller sets or as the larger Batmobile. "

Excellent modular addition!
" The Assembly Square is another fantastic addition to the modular family. The Assembly Square in particular is designed as a representation of the past 10 years of modular, paying homage to several different sets all at the same time.
Each building in the Assembly Square shares similar architecture or features from various different buildings in the modular line. If you have any of the previous modular buildings, Assembly Square will feel familiar, and yet new and fresh at the same time. The mini-figures provided are excellent, including the baby with pram stroller.
Everything works with the Assembly Square, and no city or modular display or collection is complete without it. To top it off, the 4,000 + piece count makes the price seem reasonable, as do most of the modular sets. I definitely recommend this one. "

Great, challenging build!
" The Expert Rollercoaster is brilliantly designed, providing a great deal of challenge and fun at the same time. The completed model is quite large, and has one of the largest footprints of any Lego model currently on the market.
The build itself is broken up into two halves: you essentially build the Rollercoaster in two parts and combine them at the end. The resulting model is surprisingly sturdy yet delicate. Quite a bit of the build are the white supports though, so that can be a little monotonous. Because it does combine some moving/technic elements with the lift chain, great care needs to be taken during these steps, otherwise it may not operate properly at first. Same with all of the support beams, it's quite easy to miscount and miss a few pieces. It's hard to know if you're missing any until you combine the model at the very end. The option to add in the power functions works great as well.
Overall this is a fantastic set. "

Great set for any Lego fan!
" This is a fantastic set. It's a bit over 4,000 pieces, and at a price of $350 is great value. That's obviously expensive, but the quality is there. This is a fantastic representation of the Cinderella Castle at Disney World's Magic Kingdom in Florida. The details are exceptional. It's a very pretty model, and rather tall. On the backside, there are several detailed vignettes that represent a handful of different Disney films. The only negative I would say is the quantity of minifigures. You only get 5, of which 4 are just variations of previously released minifigures. They're all great though. A Goofy and/or Pluto would have been neat to include. This set isn't in the same line as the other Disney Princess sets, but the minifigures are compatible. This is quite simply an amazing set, and one of my all time favorite Lego sets. If you can afford it, definitely get this. "

Great truck, though not 100% accurate
" I wrote a review for the other smaller fire truck set, and like that one this is a fun and great set to add to a collection. The minifigures and truck are neat, and the building portion is fun to play with.
Like the other small truck though, this is not perfectly accurate. It's been pointed out before, but a real tiller would have the ladder staged in the center, not the back, and there would be an additional driver cab at the back to help drive/steer the back portion. A ladder this size should also extend at least a section or two, while this one does not.
However, Lego is constrained by what they can do, so if someone wanted to they could modify the truck just a bit to make it more accurate. As it is though it's still a great and fun set, and I would recommend it. "

Nice fire truck, though not perfectly accurate...
" This fire truck is a great way to build up a fire department fleet and add to any new or existing City collection. The two minifigures are great, and the ladder portion of the truck is neat. The little accessory on fire is cool too.
However, the fire truck released in 2013, #60002, is a much more accurate fire truck. This new fire truck features a nice ladder, but it does not have any storage or compartments in the back. #60002 has a ladder as well, but also has compartments and accurate components as would a real fire truck. The ladder on this new truck simply takes up too much space and is not accurate to a small truck this size. A bigger and longer fire truck would have a ladder of this size. I do realize though Lego could not just rerelease the old set and needed to make a "new" truck for this year.
Having said all of that, this truck is still very nice and a great set to add to any collection. I would still recommend it. "

Please read before buying...
" As a few reviews have pointed out before, all of the Serious Play sets are NOT designed for your average child or even Lego fan. They are meant for corporate environments, mainly team building events. These are not meant for people that just want to build stuff at home. Sure, you can use them for that, but that is not the primary function. That's why some of the other Serious Play sets are so very expensive. These aren't supposed to supplement your child's collection or to be a gift for someone. Please understand this before purchasing. "

Great set and great truck!
" This is a great set! The price is good, as you get a cool fire truck and 2 firefighters. It goes great with all of the other LEGO fire sets, and every collection needs more than one. The truck itself is a very accurate representation of an actual fire truck, including the ladder, which works great. I have several in my collection and have simply removed the ladder from a few to customize the truck and make all sorts of different engines. It fits nicely into the fire station as well if you choose to do so. I would definitely recommend this set for any LEGO fan, but especially LEGO city fans. Great job LEGO! "
