Recommendation: meh 39 / 50 by Jay

A great introduction set to the Friends theme. Again, cannot stress the amazing colours and parts selection and even if you're not a fan of this girly nonsense, I'm sure builders will find the parts handy for other things. Looks great when all the elements are combined and I have pretty much no complaints! Definitely a buy.

As always, we love the Lego products. I still think they are overpriced, but there is nothing like a Lego set to keep you busy on a lazy afternoon. My daughters love the Friends sets, and this one is no exception. It is cute, girly, and the instructions are great for kids to do it on their own. My daughters are 5, 6, and 7, and they can usually assemble these independently or with very little help. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a fun, girly Lego set!

The Brothers Brick

I'm not sure that it is a good buy for what you get. There are unique printed pieces in the set (ipod, anyone?) but there were no interesting design features.

A cute but basic set. I think some of the other $10 sets will provide a slightly better value, but I like what this set accomplishes and like the purple and aqua pieces especially!
