LEGO Builders can follow the instructions to build one of the 8 different structures or they can create and build whatever they want... just like in the game. There are also inspiration pictures in the directions to get builders thinking.
My son had been saving his money to purchase a Lego Minecraft set. After at least an hour of research, he finally decided on this one. He asked me to track it several times a day, and was extremely excited when it finally arrived. It has lots of pieces for hours of building Lego/Minecraft style. I love that it came with an instruction booklet with 8 different projects. This will keep him entertained for a very long time. I highly recommend this set for any Lego fan who is also a fan of Minecraft. Ours came with a poster that has a Lego/Minecraft scene on one side, and a block translator on the other side.
The set is great with Steve, a Skeleton and a Mooshroom it has lots of pieces and the block translation poster is helpful.
Not being a Minecraft fan, I probably would not have bought this set on my own. I had fun building it though, and it challenged my expectations of what LEGO instructions can be. The pieces will definitely find welcome homes in my collection. If you're a Minecraft fan looking for a way to create scenes that look like they come out of the game, you should definitely check it out. For others, if you need a lot of basic bricks it's not a bad value at all.
Ultimately, this set fails as an adequate minifig-scale Minecraft set. The sub-assembly feature is novel, but it's too weak to be picked up, and looks bad when assembled. Minecraft fans will be better off ignoring the instructions and creating their own scenes with the pieces.
To be honest, I am having a hard time recommending this set to anyone who is not a die-hard Minecraft fan in the first place. Though the modular approach is an interesting concept in theory, in practice it leads to simplified and repetitive builds, and disjointed looking and fragile models.
