Welcome to the upside down!
" A must have for a big fan of the Netflix series and Lego! The set itself captures the overall feel of the Netflix series, and once finished it is very stable to put on display. There is a small issue if used as a "play" set, as if you flip around the set, small pieces especially the tree "leaves" will come off with a tiny bump. But since this set is for ages 16+, so I don't think that would be a problem, but be careful when showing off the set to your friends!
The only big issue I have is when putting both halves together, and pushing trees into the locking mechanisms at the sides can be very difficult to do without snapping the bricks off the house(s) and the base(s.) So be very careful at that part. But overall the building process is fairly simple.
I felt that some stickers are unnecessary, especially 2x2 flat tiles... would rather those to be printed. Perhaps it is a way to cut down on costs. And I LOVED the movie reference sticker(s.)
Visually it look great, with the vibrant normal world and the constant, dark and gloomy look of the Upside Down world.
The manuals comes with information by the designer of the set, and there are facts about what inspired certain parts of Stranger Things (like Eleven's disguise was a tribute to ET's disguise! I should have realised that the first time!)
The mini figures is absolutely brilliant, and my girlfriend adores the Dusty mini figure like she adores the character from the series. I surely hope Lego will produce more sets, not just one-off set. I hope to see other mini figures, like Steve, poor Barbara, Eleven without her disguise etc.
So please Lego. More of this!

Great Scott!
" Absolutely a must for Back to the Future fan. Hopefully they’ll do other sets from the sequels.
This set is based on the first film, so that’s why the hover board isn’t included, hence the hope they’ll do the other films as well (hopefully with Clara from BTTF3.)
Get this ASAP if you are a huge fan!
