Cute and fairly practical!

I love that it has its own case! My nephew loves carrying it around. However, a few of the pieces are EXTREMELY small and were almost instantly lost. Definitely not for young kids! Overall though very cute and I would buy it again!

Mid-life crisis gift

I got this as a gift for my boyfried on his 26th birthday. It was an early mid-life crisis gift. He thought it was great!

Lego Building Set -- Good in Some Ways, Bad in Others

There are both good and bad things about this Lego set. I feel the good and bad points are about equal.

First, the good points. It has 405 pieces of which most are seven different colors and of great quantities. This facilitates the mixture of colored parts.

Second, the bad points. It comes in a large bin, which is mostly filled with parts in five plastic bags. These bags are relatively hard for anyone to open. I mostly needed a scissor to do this. After the bags are opened and discarded, the pieces only fill a small portion of the bin. This is good and bad, meaning the bin is very lightweight and deceptive at point of purchase. The good part of this, is additional quantities of parts can be mixed with the initial set. This adds to the weight of the bin. However, simply doubling the set, which I have, only fills the bin slightly further.

If you want a good starter set, buy this set. Know this however, you will want to expand this set by purchasing other Lego sets. In the meantime, Leggo my Lego and let us have fun building and creating.

Deceiving picture

Lego building bricks are great. I had them when I was a kid and gave my saved sets to my sons. Now they are hooked on them. Legos amuse them for days at a time.
My complaint is with one of the pictures used in the description of this particular set. The one of the farmhouse being attacked by a UFO is very deceiving. None of the bricks in that picture come in this kit and it shouldn't be used here.

Great Birthday present

Kaj is a bright, active, 6 year old - black run skier, lives on an island, likes backpacking and camping. He received this for his 6th birthday and loves it.

What We Think

Fun factor:
Durability:
Ease of assembly:
Educational factor:

The Good: Lego starter kit lets younger children build a house, car, dog, helicopter, and more.

The Challenging: Younger children may need help with following the instruction.

In a Nutshell: The ideal Lego starter kit for kids too old for Duplos.
The Ideal Lego Starter Kit
The Lego Ultimate Building Set includes everything a child needs to take the first steps to becoming an expert Lego builder. It includes one mini figurine, a building plate, and a wide mix of standard bricks in various colors as well as house and wheel elements.

Following the included instructions and using pieces in the starter kit, kids can build a house, helicopter, dog, and car. The only flaw is that the instructions may be challenging for younger children, and require adult assistance.

As is the case with virtually every Lego set, your child will be limited only by his, or her, imagination and perseverance. Although the kit is designed for younger children graduating from Lego Duplos, you can be confident that your child will never actually grow out of the Ultimate Building Set. All of the pieces can be incorporated into future Lego collections.

What's in the Box
405 standard Lego pieces with house and wheel element, mini figurine, durable plastic storage case, and instructions.




With 405 pieces, this Legos starter kit allows your child to build a variety of different things.
