"...And You're In Elvendale." ~Azari
" This is my favorite LEGO Elves set I have. When I first laid eyes on it in a LEGO magazine I knew I would be saving up for it!
The trees are built on one sturdy platform and spaced perfectly, so that your elves can move around easily.
First tree-The first tree is the biggest, complete with secret compartment in tree trunk, moving leaf curtains and more! The day bed surprised me-I didn't know that it could swing open to be two cushioned benches!
The bridge-The bridge is my favorite part: it converts quickly and easily into a ladder. the bridge is a little hard to put together, but boy was it worth it!
Second tree-This tree is smaller than the first. It had a telescope, table made out of a dish, and a bed for the panther cub. It also has a bucket that can be lowered down to the ground. I instantly fell in love with the long glittery purple chain!
Ground-The ground is home to a cauldron hanging over a fire, a small stream, and two chairs and a table. Relatively simple, but fun. It also has the famous portal! The portal can be moved out of sight in the blink of an eye and I think the swirl-printed disc is quite unique.
Minifigures-I should say mini "dolls." And these dolls are awesome! Azari and Farran's hair pieces are new. Azari's hair is very neat looking as it turns from red to yellow. Emily Jones has her pendent printed on her torso and comes with a pocketbook. The panther is a great addition to my Elves animals!
Overall this set has NOTHING wrong with it. It is perfect. LEGO outdid themselves on this one, I must say.

Best Dragon Set Ever
" I have gotten lots of LEGO dragon sets, but this one tops them all! This was a great choice for my first NINJAGO set:
The Dragon-Jay's dragon is superb! The little white beard gives it such character (though I wish it might be a little more stable), and the horns make it look menacing. I like the spring-loaded shooters underneath the wings even though it took me some time to figure out how to fire them. The legs are awesome and quite easy to move. I love the golden reins. I do think the tail could be larger, but that is minor.
Minifigures-I love these minifigs! Jay looks awesome with his sword sheaths slung on his back and I absolutely LOVE the printing on his top. Cyren comes with a double sided face-one is triumphant and the other is mad. Her swords, unlike Jay's, slip easily out of their sheaths during battles. Her printing is very detailed. I cannot forget the Monkey Wretch! He is awesome, with his three orange arms and one silver one!
Pirate Plane-The plane is quite small, but very playable. The stud shooter mounted on the front is excellent. I do wish there was room for Monkey Wretch to sit behind Cyren.
Accessories-The accessories are few: the Djinn Blade with Nya trapped in it is made up out of several new pieces. The blade is the same as the Elemental ones in the Stone Army season. The grappling-hook gun is the perfect pirate weapon, though the grappling hook falls out way too easy if you tug on it. I would note that I would have liked to see Jay's Nun-chucks of Lightning instead of two golden katanas.
Over all this set is the best! I would have liked another ninja (maybe Nya), but still, I would recommended this anytime!
