" The only thing worth saying is that it's great to have blue baseplates back! Blue is a much more usable color than the sand/tan baseplate (personally, I'm building a coastal city, so it was hard to continue without the blue).

" I bought this set especially for Old Man Luke (like most people I'm sure). And while that minifigure is great, the rest of the set is incredibly well-detailed. It's nice to see that Lego didn't just slap a Luke minifigure in an otherwise worthless set. This one is a fun build and has plenty of fun details.
Also, who doesn't love getting a Porg as well? "

" A fun little set for the new City line. Getting the bee hive with this is a nice little surprise for set this small. The best of all, however, is the male bandit's face has an alternate side with bee stings on it.
Definitely a small set worth buying! "

Fall is Here!
" As a fan of the former City Farming theme, I like this set a lot. The color scheme is great for autumn, and the variety of food pieces (especially the yellow stalks) add to the value. Anyone interested in having a seasonal theme or just adding some basic farmland to his/her own city should definitely pick this up while it remains available. Remember, these seasonal sets go fairly quickly.

A Good Star Wars Set
" There seem to be complaints about this being a disappointing Christmas set, but I bought it because I am a Star Wars fan. I like that the advent calendar gives me access to a variety of minifigures from different Star Wars series.
Pros:
* Good minifigures (nice to get a Sabine as well extra stormies)
* Fun microfighters
* Interesting element builds (especially the Resistance mounted gun)
Con:
* Price. I'm sure the Star Wars licensing is what pushes the price point up.

If you're a Star Wars fan, it's a good set. If you're looking for something specifically Christmas related, Lego offers other sets that are more suited to that need.

Great for Halloween and Beyond
" I've been looking forward to this set since I saw the teaser for it on the Easter set. It has a great price point, especially considering the pieces inside. The wrought iron gate is awesome, the minifigure is somewhat unique, and the light orange bricks are a nice change of color-scheme. Yes, it's fun as a Halloween display, but the pieces involved allow it to help expand future builds as well. Definitely buy this before the season is over!

Perfect for City builders
" This set is perfect for anyone who building a Lego city of his/her own. Each of these little builds are great additions to a city.
Pro: This set is a great value because of the more specialized pieces that come with it (bicycle, food pieces, etc). I cannot recommend this enough for City fans!
Con: Some people may be upset that there are no minifigures. For me, though, this is okay; my city is getting a little overpopulated at the moment. "

Great City Addition
" My original interest in this set was purely based on the new panther (big cat) piece. But having built the rest of the set, I am pleasantly surprised. The half-track - without the stickers - fits in perfectly with my other mining/construction vehicles I have in my city. I love all the new pieces this theme brings in. While I don't have a lot of jungle exploration in my city, most of the set can be adapted to fit in.
Pros:
* Panther! (Cheapest set for the new big cats)
* The half track is a solid build ... no issues with the treads locking up.
* New pieces (new spider design, machete)
* The small "ruins" has a good playable element to it.

Well-Balanced Set
" I'll be honest, the only reason I bought this set originally was for Agent Coulson and Lola. The Coulson minifigure is great, and I love that more characters are getting their own minifigures. Lola (the car) is well-detailed, and it can fit right in with any other Lego cars you may have rolling around.
What impressed me most, however, was Detroit Steel. I have not bought any set that included a mech in a few years and wow! The Detroit Steel mech is awesome. It has great points of articulation and balances easily. If I had to provide a con, I would say the shoulder-armor pieces pop off depending on how you rotate the arms, but I don't see that as an issue. I'm not a fan of the six-stud shooter, so I cobbled together a different gun for him to carry.
For any Marvel fans, I highly recommend this! "
