The microfigs are great representations of classic figures (well, most of them - I'm not sure that Pixal is worthy of inclusion) and it's a clever set. It closes back up nicely for storage, but this is one that will be sitting out on a lot of shelves I'm sure. [...] It's hard to complain about a freebie, but I do wish the line slid over further and they'd picked a different last microfig.","review_amount":null,"rating_original":"9.5","rating_converted":"95.00","author_name":"mostlytechnic","embed":null},{"review_url":"https:\/\/truenorthbricks.com\/2018\/04\/11\/lego-review-minifigure-factory\/","snippet":"As a free set, this is a good one. But, I gave it such a high score because it was free. If this set had been up for purchase, I would have given it 70%. Don't get me wrong, I do like it, but I don't think it is worth the $19.99 that LEGO is saying it is worth. If you have $75 worth of LEGO on your wish list, this is a good time to go out and get it. This is a nice freebie, but I wouldn't buy it if it was available for retail.","review_amount":null,"rating_original":"93","rating_converted":"93.00","author_name":"Tom","embed":null},{"review_url":"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/LEGO-Minifigure-Factory-mini-figure-5005358\/dp\/B06XRDPMYS?SubscriptionId=AKIAIGQAU2PVYTRCS5MQ&tag=brickinsights-20&linkCode=xm2&camp=2025&creative=165953&creativeASIN=B06XRDPMYS","snippet":"I had to buy this set because it represents and is celebrating the creation and development of Lego minifigures! (40th anniversary I believe!) As an avid Lego fan and collector, this set is unique and comedic because the minifig worker is creating mini minifigs in a \"factory\"\/garage setting with a magnifying glass for the fine details. It's cute and very fun! Everything Lego is so fun and awesome! :D","review_amount":"12","rating_original":"4.5","rating_converted":"90.00","author_name":null,"embed":null},{"review_url":"https:\/\/brickset.com\/reviews\/set-5005358-1","snippet":null,"review_amount":"3","rating_original":"3.9","rating_converted":"78.00","author_name":null,"embed":null},{"review_url":"https:\/\/www.thebrickfan.com\/lego-minifigure-factory-5005358-review\/","snippet":"In recent times, LEGO has been releasing some very unique gift-with-purchase items in recent times and the LEGO Minifigure Factory (5005358) is nothing short of a great set. The idea of a minifigure creating their own minifigures is thoughtful and very meta. I do like the flap feature of opening the box instead of ripping it open as I thought it was going to be which makes the set more collectible than others.","review_amount":null,"rating_original":null,"rating_converted":null,"author_name":"Allen \"Tormentalous\" Tran","embed":null},{"review_url":"https:\/\/www.brothers-brick.com\/2018\/04\/13\/lego-giveaway-5005358-minifigure-factory-set-review\/","snippet":"Though it's pretty simple and not exactly the typical playset one would expect, I do think it's a well thought out design and a cool piece of memorabilia in celebration of the introduction of minifigures 40 years ago. Overall, it is an interesting concept that uses everything on hand with a stowaway flap to seal it back for storage. LEGO is known for its great design on exterior box art that frequently gets discarded eventually, and this approach is quite a good concept of having actually keep boxes for a reason for play or even for a nice collectable on the side.","review_amount":null,"rating_original":null,"rating_converted":null,"author_name":"Edwinder","embed":null},{"review_url":"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=vfpNsXYkNFE","snippet":null,"review_amount":null,"rating_original":null,"rating_converted":null,"author_name":"Jang","embed":"<iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/vfpNsXYkNFE?rel=0&amp;showinfo=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Embedded video from YouTube\"><\/iframe>"},{"review_url":"https:\/\/brickset.com\/article\/35320\/review-5005358-minifigure-factory","snippet":"I had high expectations for this set but am a little disappointed. I like the minifigure included and even the cardboard box that forms the factory building works remarkably well. However, the production line has been designed around a function which does not work perfectly and I think a more realistic depiction of minifigure production would have been more appealing.","review_amount":null,"rating_original":null,"rating_converted":null,"author_name":"CapnRex101","embed":null}]}
