Recommendation: meh 4.5 / 5 from 55 reviews

Bumblebee and her helicopter are a a nice addition to the DC Super Girls Lego theme sets. The triple propeller helicopter design is inventive and original and overall the toy is both fun to build and to play with afterward.Bumblebee can fight criminals with the dual guns, capture them with the grappling hook or fly after them with her wings. The figures and the helicopter are consistent in size with other DC Super Hero. However, play time, a child can have a lot of fun pretending that Bumblebee has “shrunk" to her miniature size superhero form to help out in tight spots.The kit is easy to assemble and is great as a beginning project or gift for someone who is collecting the DC Super Girl Hero line. The instructions are easy to follow and the whole kit can be assembled in under 30 minutes. The toy is great as a standalone kit or when added to other DC Super Hero Girl kits.

After the set is built, it's fun for imaginative play as kids help Bumblebee protect her shipment of crystals from the Kryptomites by flying off in her helicopter. Interactive, and hands on features add to the fun. This is a really cool Lego set for DC Super Hero Girls' fans to engage with the character in a new way.
