I bought this and another knight Lego set as a gift for my nephew for Christmas.  His one request was Lego knights.  They arrived in a very timely manner.  They were well packaged and the tins were not damaged or scratched.  When he opened his presents he was very excited!  He was running around my house wanting to play with them right then!  For any kid interested in knights and Legos, these are a must!

The box that these legos comes in is huge compared to the amount of legos that you actually receive. I ended up having to get a whole other set of legos just so that it didn't seem like I gave them a really small amount. It is worth it to pay a little more for the bigger sets. Other than that being said, the legos themselves were fine! It came with a good variety and a little booklet saying how to make some things with the legos. The boys just like to use their imagination.

Also, I would suggest going to a place like home depot and getting a sturdy container because while the top is plastic the bottom is cardboard. I actually took the top and hot glued it onto a cheap container I bought at home depot and the boys loved it!

Did research on the few other generic brand of legos here on Amazon before purchasing this set.  I couldn't really determine which one was best to choose from so decided to try my luck with this set because of the 5 star review.  (I know, hard to trust these reviews but what did I have to lose?  Im buying generic legos here.) In addition, I bought the set of 4 (10x10) green base plates of the same brand, which they fit easily on. I super glued all 4 plates on a 20 x 20 table.  I was aiming to make a large scale building with these.
At first i wish it had more of a selection in pieces such as the Dreambuilder Toys set (1000 pcs) that comes with wheels, rotary pieces, etc.  But after trying to figure out what to build, i realized with having so many different kinds of pieces, the scale of your project may not look as big as you thought.  With the pieces that came with this set, i was only really able to build the outer wall of a castle may be at 16 x 10 x 10 inches.  By then all my large brick pieces had been used.  All that were left were the small pieces.  The roof pieces at best could cover a small house building.  I suggest buying may be 2000 - 3000 pcs to build a large structure on a 20 x 20 base.  This 1000 pcs would be good for several small structures.
Confirming also that they are compatible with the lego classics.  The only thing that i found difficult was trying to attach the base plates from the classics on to the generic plates i purchased.  But i just decided not to use the old classic plates at all.
Other than that, I am very happy with this purchase and would definitely purchase more from them in the future.  I just hope they would offer more sets with different piece selections.

Don't get ripped off, you can buy the castle and a separate set called good knights vs bad knights for significantly less than this combo pack.  The castle set goes for around $65 and the extra knights pack goes for about $15.  Otherwise, it is a very good toy.

My Son loves the Lego Movie and Batman! I stole the Angry UniKitty so i can be Angry Mommy UniKitty at bedtime. Always gets a laugh! 5 year old played with this set for hours. We helped him build it the correct way, but then he used Batman to break it and rebuild it into some kind of flying car. He is on his way to being a MASTER BUILDER!  Thank you Lego for another great, well thought-out, action packed, building set!
Now, on with that next Lego Movie!! They are AWESOME!!

It's a cute set, but tiny - especially the minion figure.  And, as other reviewers have noted, it is not the same quality as regular Legos.  Pieces are not a tight enough fit and sections kept falling off while the child was assembling. I believe sales would increase if quality did.

This is yet another cool Lego from the coolest series "creator". My sons love it and cannot stop playing with it utilizing the flexibility the kit allows: 3 different models in 1 kit.

It's not the same quality as Lego. I bought them for my daughters and had to put them together because the instructions are horrible and the pieces don't fit together as well as Lego. I'm disappointed because Lego is simply too costly to buy. I know that they hold their value, but come on. Otherwise, the set is cute and they like the carriage, but the horse/ driver keep coming unhinged from the coach, so I get to repeatedly stop what I'm doing to fix it for them. I don't think I'd buy it again. I'll probably skimp on the stocking stuffer junk and invest in the Lego bricks.

Of course they are not Lego and I always glue non Lego stuff, no difference here. The main issue is that these pieces of furniture are gigantic and do not fit in the 2 Lego houses my son has.

I was skeptical making this purchase as my son is at the age where Legos are starting to lose their appeal.  I still bought the Batmobile and to my surprise, my son grinned from ear to ear when he opened the present.  He had great fun building the model and later adding his own modifications to it.  The only downside is that the wheels with the real model were different from those portrayed on the box.  A small but still annoying difference as far was I was concerned.  Overall, I would recommend this for anyone who is a fan of the dark knight and of Legos.  Besides, the projectile device on the front of the Batmobile is great for knocking over the henchmen.

This set is pretty solid to start with. Booklet definitely goes through the steps of how to paint each figure it comes with(mostly)... Only reason I didn't give five stars was because I had a different third piece rather than the knight. The one I received was a Viking (not that I'm complaining) just harder to know where to get started on it.

Great set overall though.

This is a very good Lego set. Unfortunately Lego retired this product at the end of Christmas last year. I would have got this sooner if I suspected it would retire so soon. I have it now and would highly recommend this to others. This is a versatile set with numerous addictions to it. My boy love this set.

My 6-yr old and I built this last night.  It went together pretty quickly.  I don't think it took more than 3 hours which included a lot of breaks to eat dinner, let the dog out, etc.  My son did the first half of the first instruction book.  He sporadically helped me through the second - he was getting bored quickly and found it way more fun to play with the Lego figures as I put the masts on and added the details.  The only complaint I have with this is the masts don't stay on if you move the ship or bump it.  Definitely not a set to be played with roughly or moved around.  This is one for the dresser/shelf.  The lights on the back and the mast head are really neat.  I always like to see the clever way Lego mixes custom pieces and stock pieces to recreate interesting features of things like movie props.

Buy from LEGO directly for $99.99.  As of this post it was still available for sale.  I love the detail of this set.  So hopefully you can get it while it is still relatively inexpensive and not the marked up "collectible" price.

I bought this set for my 8 old year son. At first, he surprise me building by himself one of the car models, his face expression of sucess, make me believe this set was worth. Lately, it was a father and son job building the robotic arm. It is pretty amazing see it moving and it took about 1 hour, instructions (manual has 47 pages) of how to do it are not as clear as Lego ones but finally guessing a little you can do it. I found there is a little design problem: vertical movement of arm has a flaw, upper support that holds on possition the worm-gear tend to get loose if you keep lifting the arm or eventualy it get loose over time, my opinion is there is too few pieces to accomplish this task; and horizontal movement of arm makes a little  noise on gear making you think the whole thing is going to break, the truth is it never happen. DC-motors are strong enough to do the job so don't worry about them. It uses three AA batteries which survived after two models and a week of battery use. For a Lego fanatic I do recommend this set.

I love how all pieces for several contraptions are in the box.  I wish all Legos were sold this way, that would cut down on having to buy kit after kit.

I'm sure the Legos will be fine. This is a gift and the Lego wrapper is very torn up. Not a nice presentation. I wouldn't select it in the store if it looked like that. Looks like clearance.
