Love lego but yet disappointed
Over the years, I've purchased many lego builds. I am very fond of LEGO. I believe the builds and collectibility make purchasing the product valuable. With that being said..
I was excited to order my first set from the lego store online. I waited for it to come in and when it arrived, I was disappointed in the condition of the packaging. (UPS is at fault im sure, but unfortunately the product I felt was poorly packaged) The LEGO team I would think should understand how important it is for the builds to come in pristine boxes. Unfortunately it's not acceptable. I'm sure I will be refunded. I've requested a return and I will be patient waiting for the replacement, but its just a simple point... the build wasn't a 10.00 build and that maybe, it's time to look for a new Carrier.
Great!
Not yet given, it's a Christmas gift for my daughter and son together. But now it can be bought at a significantly discounted price. I'm sure they will be thrilled when they open it. This has been on our son's wishlist for a while, from his 6-year-old. His older sister, who is 20, can also help him build it.
Nice set, but poor delivery.
Beautiful set, but I can't help but give it a lower score. This is yet another large set that is missing parts, making it no longer fun. I haven't even gotten to bag 8 and I can't continue due to missing parts. Unfortunately, this has been happening a lot more frequently since last year, making it impossible to recommend.
great product
I've always wanted this set, and I think it's really cool.
Received damaged boxes, up to 2 times.
Received a damaged box, even though this is a collector's item.
A fantastic build!
After reigniting my childhood joy of building Lego, I decided to treat myself to this set. It did not disappoint!
I was a bit apprehensive considering I hadn’t built a Lego model as large as this before but it was well worth it! The instructions were clear and simple and the segregated bags meant for easy organisation.
As for the final product: WOW! This exceeded all expectations! As you make your way through building, you wonder how exactly every brick is meant to fit in and to see it all come together- the moving head, the shell, etc. really makes all those fun hours of building worthwhile. And what a model it is! Its playability is exceptional with the ability to move Bowser’s head like a puppet and shoot a fireball from his mouth. The details on this build are nicely thought through too.
One con that bugged me a little was the inconsistency of the fireball shooter. Sometimes it works well and other times it doesn’t work at all.
Bowser now sits proudly in my room and I have no regrets in buying him. Well done LEGO!
Mighty Bowser is indeed
Beautiful set with a great final result. The technical LEGO elements used for Bowser's movement are not too difficult, and the instructions are clear. I waited for the price to drop below 200, but that's just a matter of principle. Overall, a great set.
Nice set!
My daughter and I were really looking forward to building this set. We had it in the cupboard for over six months, and finally, during the summer vacation, it was time!
This is a really cool and large set. We spent quite a bit of time building it. We made four bags each day. I accidentally put the shooting part in my mouth the wrong way around. You only realize this when you've finished the head, so the whole head had to be taken apart again. That was the only downside for us.
We hope that more sets like this will be released. Everything about this set is beautiful, from the head to the shield. We were disappointed that we had sold the piano. Bowser sitting behind the piano would have been amazing.
First lego set iv bought in the new era
This was my first lego set i bought since they have started putting major sets / characters / themes on sale. So as a first builder everything was very easy to work out from the booklet and bags were all numbered. The size, weight and build of this once done is amazing. I was lucky to find a store that was doing £60 discount on this item making it even more value for money. Would recommend if you after a good build or gaming geek.
I am very happy with it haha, really great.
I am extremely happy with it, it is the pinnacle of my LEGO Mario collection.
He is mighty!
The mighty bowser build is awesome! He’s a big build so you’re getting your money’s worth! On top of that he’s a blast to put together! The Koopa king does not disappoint!
Childhood Memories
I'm an 80's baby and this piece is a great addition to my NES piece. I am disappointed in a few things though - I do not have any of those add on pieces that come with the digital interactive Mario or the other characters, nor do I intend to purchase those. TO have the digital interaction feature with Bowser seems silly if it's not going to include a character that will interact. I do agree with others that say this price is high but what do you expect from a Nintendo licensed product?! The build was fun and I love the final product. I do wish in the instructions when you are building (like the arms in this instance) that they tell you 2x at the beginning of the next 20 steps, not at the end.
Great LEGO set!
This LEGO Mario set for adults has exceeded all my expectations. When I first received the box, I was immediately excited about its size and detail. Building the set did take some time, but it was so enjoyable! I was disappointed when the set was finally finished! The instructions were clear and easy to follow, and the bricks were well-organized. The set includes many fun extras and looks great on the shelf in the living room! There is a fun fire-shooting feature, and there is a button to move his head. The arms and fingers can also move, which is super cool. I'm really looking forward to combining this set with other starter sets of Mario and creating whole stories. Overall, this set is a big winner for me!
Best set Ever
This set of Browser is so wonderful l like it very much!
A really cool set
This LEGO set is worth it for anyone who enjoys challenging building sets and also likes Mario / Bowser.
The Magnificent Bowser!
I love Bowser and when I saw this set I needed to have it. I was a little skeptical of the price but after actually building him, he is 100% worth it.
He's huge, sturdy, and really true to form. The added articulation in the arms really adds that extra oomph. And the mechanics for moving his head are delightfully well hidden. The base has a couple of neat features too! I had a lot of fun building this and if you're a fan of Mario or just well designed sets, this is for you.
Absolute best Lego set. Period!
This is a set that keeps getting better the more you build on it. The ah-ha! Moments follow one after another into a crescendo of bliss when the pieces finally fit together perfectly. I was constantly murmuring ‘how in the…’, ‘no way…’, ‘this is brilliant…’ the entire build.
Lego has truly outdone themselves here.
Ps my daughter especially loves it when I puppeteer the bowser (which is incredibly easy to do) with her princess peach.
Incredibly smooth
Not only is this a really solid set once all put together, perfect for posing and playing with, but the build itself was very fun and intuitive. There are some sets that are beautiful when complete, like the NES, but the process isn't very fun. Bowser was a blast all the way through and looks beautiful when completed. Highest recommendation!
One of the best set
Simply one of the best sets ever to me. The size is just perfectly appropriate, also with no sticker. Every things are prefect, except the mouth can not be kept open. Now it can be nicely displayed near to my lego baby yoda, and groot.
This is a best Bowser set I ever seen
I love this set a lot of details but good thing is no stickers thank you Lego please no stickers I love it the fire is a best too 10 of the 10 is masters
