Grandson loved it. Especially the light brick. Took 3-4 hrs. to build (a plus for grandparents).

Recommendation: meh 4.67 / 5 from 15 reviews

Nice improvement over the previous Lighthouse Island. I like the versatility of the design, allowing for many different reconfigurations of the house and tower. Interior of the house lacks a little detail, especially for a building that is hinged. Love the fact that the top lights up. Nice work creating a "lens" for the light. My biggest wish is that the light would be able to flash on its own instead of having to push the "button" all the time.

Recommendation: no 4 / 5

The star of the show is the lighthouse, which really lights! The lighthouse features a functioning light brick, circular lookout balcony, windows, and a classic red and white theme. It also opens for the lightkeeper's cottage, which opens up to reveal a detailed interior, complete with a chair, table, lamp and a painting.The seashore features a bench, open-air fire, rocks, docks, flower, barrel, and even a lifesaver.

Recommendation: no 73 / 100 by Tom

While I really like the exterior of the building, I don't like that the tower is not hollow and the house is hinged, barren, and small. The Minifigures leave something to be desired, and I really wish LEGO would either make an actual child torso, or just stop making these ape-children. The killer whale is awesome though, and I might just try to make a few more someday in order to have a pod. I will keep this set built, but will eventually modify it to make it more my own. It does have a good value though, even at full price.
