"I have been building and collecting Lego's for decades. Now I'm watching my children enjoy Lego's as I have. My son, 5 years old, is just now starting to build some of the smaller sets on his own. He bought me this set with his own money for my birthday because he wanted us to build it together.
I think it's the most disappointing set I've owned. There is no way a child could get this helicopter off the launcher and even if you do get it launched it doesn't fly, it just drops. It's a joke. How did this set ever get past quality control and make to market?
I appreciate Lego's quest to innovate. I believe the 2019 Fire Lego's were a home run. That was the best improvement to the Lego fire Lego's in 25 years. That said, this Fire Helicopter is innovation gone bad. I would definitely avoid it."
