Works good
" I ran out of options with a Mindstorms project. I needed another touch sensor to detect when a part reached the far end of travel and needed to be reversed. This switch worked great for that application.
The placement of the second connector right next to the switch caused a few problems. It would have been better to have a straight wire with the switch in the middle and a connectors at each end.

Best set for bulk on site
" This set has lots of different bricks, a great starter set. Once again there are a lot of small bricks and not enough larger ones. With this amount of variety and a low cost of under 4.5 cents a brick, this is a can't pass up set. It even tops the 6177 set that has 50 bricks less for the same price.
Here's what you all get.
92 ....1x1 Brick
142 ..1x2 Brick
20 .....1x3 Brick
30 .....1x4 Brick

Nice Key chain
" I bought this for my nephew who is always loosing his house key. He just loves it, and he hasn't lost his key since it's been on it.
The key chain is the same quality as a regular minifig. It's held up to an 9 year old for weeks now. Must be well built. "

Not the best of this theme
" The set went together good, about an hour or so. The set has new pieces in new colors. Lots of the 2x2 offset bricks. The dagger is very detailed and the light up brick looks cool.
I thought this would be a great set playability wise, but it's not. The traps got old fast and your limited to the same play all the time. I took it apart and added it to the Battle of Alamut set 7573 which is a great set.
The per brick price is good at just under 10 cents. "

A fun set
" The set was well thought out. It went together without any problems and took a little over an hour. Like other sets in the Prince of Persia line, this one has some great new weapons, head pieces, and parts in all new colors.
The playability of this set is huge! When open, the fortress is much wider than it looks. There are stairs to run up, catapults to fire, traps, you name it. With seven minifigs, you'll have no problem creating hours of fun.
At just under 10 cents a brick, this set is a great value. "

Good with other sets.
" I purchased this along with the 7585 Horse Stable, for my 6 year old granddaughter. This was a great addition to that set. As a stand alone there isn't that much playability. It really needs another set. The puppies are cute, she loved them, and the bricks are compatible with regular Lego.
The per brick price of nearly 16 cents put the price at a little high, but not bad. "

Good for starters
" I just purchased this set for my 6 year old grand daughter. She loves it! The over sized horses and person (Laura) work great for small, less coordinated hands. It's nice that the set has parts that work with standard Lego parts. She's thrilled to have "Girl" Lego but has also borrowed some of her brothers to add to the set.
The only down side is at a per brick price of over 19 cents it's expensive! "

lots of fun
" The set goes together quickly, took less than 15 minutes. The set has a lot of playability to it, from the sword/dagger fight, the trap door, and the food market below, this set has a lot. There are new head pieces, a very detailed dagger, the sword harness, the gold dome, and who could miss the camel. The camel and the clever way the boxes are connected to it is what atracted me to the set. Once together there was a lot more to it.
At a per brick price of just under 12 cents, the price isn't to bad. "

Fun movie
" The grandkids were coming over for the evening so I picked up this movie for everyone to watch. The quality and the story line really surprised me. I planned on putting it on and getting some other things done. We never left the room. The humor is aimed at kids and adults. It moves along at a good pace. There wasn't any inappropriate language or undertones. Just a good movie, it's very G rated. Afterwords we broke out their new favorite game Lego Creationary. It was a nice evening.
The price is a little high, but worth it. "

Ostriches, Nice!
" I purchased this set just for the ostriches. There are three cool minifigs as well. The set was a very quick build, under 15 minutes. It was just okay, playability wasn't really huge with this set.
I disassembled set and sorted the parts. Now I have an ostrich farm on my train layout. The cows don't seem to mind a bit. I thought it was a little pricey, but at just under 12 cents a brick it's not to bad. "
