My 3 year old watches me play minecraft. He's tried to play but just can't quite figure it out. These minecraft legos were a big hit with him! He knew what all the characters and items were and was so excited to be able to Build these with me. We will be buying more lego minecraft sets in the near future.

Recommendation: no 4.25 / 5 from 4 reviews

I really like this set, everything about is so good to me. First off, and probably the main reason most people will buy this set, is the Villager, which is so great to get in this inexpensive of a set. Also, you get a creeper, which is also the cheapest way to get, as well as a humorous Steve with a dangling carrot whip to ride the pig. Lastly, the farm is solid, with a fun play feature, very useful watermelon heads and slices, and overall it's a nice scene. However, I think $15 is a bit high, I think $10 would be a better deal. But overall, a very nice set!

I think LEGO have done an excellent job here. It's a bargain price, you have the previously exclusive Villager, and a pig, and new melon parts, plus it will easily integrate into an existing layout. These all appeal to the existing Minecraft collector.
