Is this set too young for an 11 year old?

Brandon, I think it totally depends upon the child's abilities. Our grandson was actually too young when we purchased it.

I believe this set may be entirely too small for a 13 year old. It was perfectly sized for my 4 year old son.

well, given that it has easily removable limbs attached to ball joins, I would say no. BUT - there are others that are cheaper and much sturdier that you can find on Amazon and they will hold up well to the kind of play activities 11-year olds will put them through. Hope this helps.

We got this set for our 6 yr old. He needs a lot of help from us though. I think it is a fine starter kit to see if there is interest. My sister uses this kit at her school-age aftercare program and says all of the kids enjoy this kit (kinder-8th grade).

yes, good for an 11 year old. If it was for me I'd spend a little more for better quality.

Absolutely not. I have a 10 year old boy and he's made some pretty complicated stuff with his Legos and this is the set he picked for this coming Christmas!

My son was 12 when we got it.....I think any age between grades 4-8 would be good. Very interesting set! He still loves it!

I purchased this for my 4 year old daughter and she is enjoying it..along with my 10 year old daughter! The remote part is definitely more geared to a young child.. It is cute for an older child.. My only concern would be that your 11 year old would get bored with it quickly because of the simplicity of it. That said, my 10 year has been playing with it along with the 4 yr old and they both love it. I'm not sure I really helped you make the decision.. But at least you know an older child will enjoy it even though it is geared toward a younger child. Have a good day!

No. The set would be a little too small for a 5 and 7 year old. They are a perfect size for my 1 and 3 year old

My son is 11 and I am 36 and we have a blast with them. I'm not sure if I would recommend them for anyone under 8 or so though.

the listed/labeled age for the Lego 21103 set is age 10+. Any younger may need an adult to assist in putting it together. Hope this helps. Other wise i love this set. Should check out the movie series too. =)

My ten year old is pretty tall for her age...probably 5-2 and she still uses them, but she does have to bed her knees. The set looks just as good today as it did when I installed it years ago :)

Yes! Our 11 year old received the ensemble for Christmas in 2013 and it is still in excellent condition. (As a summer alternative, he and his friends stack-pyramid style- discarded soda cans filled halfway with water and shoot away. Lots of fun and laughter!)

Depends on the kid and what kind of stuff they like to play with, but I don't see why an 11 year old shouldn't. I like it and I'm 34.

Definitely not. My boys are older than 6, and they all love it. Since we have 3 of the sets, they have a lot of fun putting the track in different configurations. I think at 6, he would enjoy it.

For us it was because my son was still young. He's 3 now and he's getting another set for Christmas. You can build a house and things like that...I think is a great starter set.

A good question. We have this set for our 3 yo, who's a bit short for his age. They say the set is good/adjustable up to age 11 or so, which may approximate your child's height now. So you may only get limited use from the set (i.e., less than 2 years) before it becomes too small. I would put the $ into an adjustable adult size set, particularly if your child's interest continues, it will be useable for much longer.
