Recommendation: yes 5 / 5

The minifigures and vehicle allow kids to imagine and play Chima-inspired adventures such as pretending Laval and Cragger are trying to stop Mungus from getting the Chi.

Recommendation: no 4 / 5 from 80 reviews

I'm not a huge Lego fan and maybe I just don't see the appeal. My daughter loves Chima and has built other vehicles and buildings from Chima and Ninjago (she thinks Lego Friends are girly and lame) but she never completed this one. She does like the characters that came with it. Mungus is neat looking and larger than the other characters.

by caperberry

Overall, this set is a good buy either as a parts pack for Flame Yellowish Orange, or as the start of or an addition to a dedicated Legends of Chima collection. For constraction builders like me, it not only offers some great parts but brings to mind the elaborate action features of the Rahi from the BIONICLE theme's debut year. Thanks to this set's dynamic transforming function, my final impression is that this set is MUCH greater than the sum of its parts. Even without an extensive Chima collection of my own, I'm glad to consider this set a part of it!
