Recommendation: meh 4.7 / 5 from 280 reviews

It isn't as if Lego needs help with selling their sets, but if you are pausing on this one because of the expense, don't. They hit a home run with this one. The City, Ninjago, and HP sets have got some competition! This is one of the most fun sets of Legos, and it is built such, that if you get two sets, you can put them back to back removing the bottom support bricks of one set, to put them together and the minecart tracks make a complete looping circuit through the mine. The minecart even has the round nibs on the bottom to guide it along the track so Steve or Mobs can slide down the ramp and take a ride.

This score from amazon.com is an aggregate of 280 reviewers. The snippet above represent only one of them.

Recommendation: meh 4.5 / 5

This is a really cool, really big and really detailed building set that will have major appeal with fans of Minecraft and construction. Kids will love building part of the Minecraft world and making up their own adventures and storylines. This would also make a nice set for collectors.

If you are not fan of Minecraft, this set can be a great opportunity to get a very interesting assortment of parts, with many bricks, plates and tiles that can be used in countless constructions. In short, I think this set is great, regardless of if you are fan of Minecraft or not.
