"I've always wanted my own train set, and happy to say that this is my first one! I had a lot of fun building everything, even though some of the steps are basically putting the same pieces together, especially for the train station. One major flaw are the amount of stickers that come with this set. While I love the "art" and everything, I feel like my stickers aren't absolutely perfect, and I want them to be that way. If you try to unpeel and adjust, you run the risk of bunching up a corner, and it just looks bad. Maybe I haven't found the secret to doing this properly. I also don't like how everything is controlled on my phone. I'm not attached to my phone like the rest of the world, and it takes a lot for my iPhone 5 to load the app and becomes hot if I run the app for more than a few minutes. Still an awesome set, and even though I haven't found the perfect display spot just yet, I know it'll look perfect next to my Disney Castle set."
