Is this set too young for an avid minecraft or lego playing grandson who enjoys playing both? Or - is there another one you would recommend... tks.

My son is 7 and it was fun for him. He loves Minecraft but usually dont like to play with Lego. So... its a fun gift.

My son is 8 years old. He loves minecraft and legos. He was able to put it together. He likes all of them. So you couldn't go wrong with any one you choose.

Hi this is a great toy and for sure son will love this toy. No your son is not too young to play this toy its just right for him i think. Hope this help.

Hi, in my opinion there's nothing in the set that an 18mth old would have any issues with. He would probably love to join in! The parts are big and its easy to clip together. I hope this helps with your decision.

Yes, the Junior set would be best.... If there are smaller children in the house maybe start with two or three duplo then move on up. Legos is a great starter for building bigger and better things.... my older grandsons are able to put together furniture after using Legos..

It's good for boys and girls who are interest in the Minecraft games. My grandson is 8 and loves it Another boy that I know is 12 and also loves it. However, they both were already into playing the Mindcraft games on the Internet. I assume girls would also like it, if they were into the Mindcraft stuff. I don't know if a child who doesn't know anything about Mindcraft would understand it.

I'd say buy Bionicle or any Lego Tecnic set. I personally am a fan of bionicle, but that's just me.

My son who is 5 was able to build it with some assistance. There are two separate books, so a lot of steps - one for the tank part and one for the flying ship part. It's not so much hard, just takes a long time to build it. It is an awesome set though, possibly my sons favorite Lego set.

First let me say this a really cool play set. I bought it for my 4 year old grandson and he just loved it. It was reasonably priced and well made. I think that kids from 3 to 7 can play with this. My other grandson is 7 and he liked playing with construction set just as well as my 5 year old.

I bought this for my boyfriend's Christmas present along with another (Hobbit) set he didn't have yet, he's the avid LEGO connoisseur, not me. But he loved the set though, so for me it was well worth the money. As for building two sets instead of one, he said"any set would look better with two instead of one!"It's all up to you really, and how much you're willing to spend on a toy. We've started to display all of them in a glass case, it looks awesome. Hope that helps.

We got the adult set and my grandson was 10 1/2. He loves them. I would say since your son is 12, the adult set would be better so you don't have to turn around and get another set in a year or two.

They are a bigger Lego. Definitely more appropriate for younger. Mine is age 3-4 yrs.

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. =)

Hi there, I bought this set for my boys, who were 5 & 7 at the time of the purchase and they like it a lot. They had it in their day care center in Pre-K, where the kids are 4 & 5. I have a 4-year-old girl now who I do not see building anything with the set but plays with it once the brothers built something already, so I do not know what to answer for a 4 years old. Maybe yes for boys if he is able to focus and follow instructions in the booklet. I would recommend it more though for a 5-years-old boy. Hope this helps! Irina

Yes, probably. My 4 year old grandson was able to put most of it together himself when he was 3. However, he loves it and still plays with it. It goes with the other City sets. You can look for "Lego City" and see if you can find a set that says 5-12 or 6+. Those are more challenging. There are many to choose from and many prices to choose from.

I would, off the top, say no. It has small pieces that can be hard to mainpulate for younger hands. DUPLO would be more appropriate for a younger child and later LEGO connect to DUPLO bits.

Some what - but keep in mind the Mega Bloks First Builders is for Mega Bloks and not Legos. Also with that table you can not use the smaller blocks. I wish I had spent the extra money and gotten some of the wooden tables - there are several on Amazon. A really nice one is the one that flips to the train track. Hope this was helpful.

My son is 5, and some times it is hard for him to assemble the models. I have latelly recognized that he enjoys better easier legos that are easy for him to manipulate and he builds much more creative things than if I get him "age appropiate or older kind of legos". The zoob legos are very nice, however some times it is frustrating for him that his creations break while he plays with them...
