A fun set
" This is a smaller version of the 4999 promotional set. It's an easy set to build, but someone in the lower age limit will need help. Once together it looks great, if you can afford more than one, they look even cooler side by side.
The set has some really good detail. No power function, but I plan to add that myself. The vehicles really make this set. The escort vehicle has a sign that raises up. The truck and trailer used to transport the parts, has compartments, and lots of detail. This set has a lot of playability. The over 13 cents a brick price is a little high, but if your Lego town needs power, this is the set for you. "

Lets get rolling
" This was a really fun set to put together. It took about an hour. Once together it looks great in my train layout. I think a child of 5 (the lowest recommended age) would need some help assembling it. The huge tires are very cool. The two minifigs with extras make this set all the better. It does have a little higher than average per brick price of over 14 cents a brick. But this is such a great set it's worth it!

Excellent Helicopter
" The set went together in under 15 minutes. It's a sturdy set that holds up to play well. It has compartments on either side for storage. the top lifts off, making it easy to remove the pilot. At just over 10 cents per brick I purchased two. This is a great addition to any Lego city.

Excellent set
" This is one of those sets that looks great on display and opens up for plenty of playability. Any experienced builder in the recommended age group should not have any problems assembling this set. First timers may need a little help.
The entire ship opens up with gunners and hidden compartments. The five minifigs are a great addition to anyone's collection. With everything closed the ship has awesome swoosh factor. The per brick price is just over 10 cents, and the set has some usable parts. I'm hoping to get a second one just because of that. "

A very cool tank
" It took just over an hour to assemble the set. It has a few tricky spots for younger builders, but nothing to tuff. It looks like it would have a lot of parts that would fall off a lot, but the set is pretty well built. The wheels are a nice feature, and roll smoothly.
Not a lot of accessories, but the two pirates are great minifigs. At a per brick price of just under 11 cents, it's a good set for parts or leaving together. "

Very nice set.
" The building and bus went together in just over an hour. The pizza place and the bike shop are easy to assemble. The bus has some nice building methods and may be a little difficult for someone on the lower end of the recommended age group (5 yrs).
This set has lots of playability to it. Bring your minfigs in on the bus. They go in and out of it easy. Once they arrive, there's the bike shop, and the pizza place. Both have lots of detail and a ton of accessories. Once their ready to go they can wait at the bus stop for the next bus.
This is a perfect set for younger builders, or builders on a budget that aren't ready for some of the larger city sets. "

Nice Rack
" I purchased one to try out. I hoped to buy a few more for the entry way of our house for the grandchildren. They are very sturdy, and have held up well. They install with just a few screws, and only took a couple minutes.
I live in Minnesota so winter coats are a must. The hooks hold up well to the weight of the coats, but their a little to close together for bulky items. They work best for small coats and hats. We will be buying more.

A cool Rose
" I thought the leaves could have been done better, but the rest of it looks great. If you look at it on a per brick price it very high, nearly 28 cents (assuming there's 18 bricks in it). But, it comes pre-assembled and in a nice display box. If your sweet heart likes roses and Lego, it would be hard to pass up..

Sweet heart!
" With only 26 bricks it goes together really fast. A 6 year old could assemble it without any problems. I guarantee this will make my wife smile.
At a per brick price of nearly 20 cents, I'd check your own blocks on hand before buying...
