Retailer reviews
Summarized retailer review data when available.
I purchased it as a gift. They really loved it!
My daughter loves these. Kept her busy for a while!
My son is a big fan of Minecraft and cats, and this LEGO set was perfect for him.
The LEGO set was very well received. The bricks are, as expected from LEGO, of high quality and fit perfectly together. The instructions are clear and easy to understand, making the assembly a lot of fun and also easy for children. Perfect for little Minecraft fans!!
My grandson is very happy with it.
It is a beautiful and sturdy building set that every young Minecraft fan will be delighted with.
Wonderful gift for our grandson who turned 7, but it might be a little difficult for him! But he's managing to do it! And his father also likes it. So, two birds with one stone.
Okay
My son is completely obsessed with Minecraft and was very happy with this set. It's fun to build and then take apart again for a different purpose. And finally, to take it apart completely to create something beautiful.
