The Brick Fan

Recommendation: meh 4.5 / 5 by Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Overall, it was a neat little set to get as a free gift although spending $75 to get it was a little bit too much. Collectors would love to have one of these polybags in their collection and right now the only way to get it is on the secondary market.

I bought this set because I wanted the bicycle (not easy to find) and I don't have enough female mini-figures. I also have a love of hot dogs, so I was pretty much ready for this to be the best set I've ever bought. I was right. This is an awesome little set, that is great for street-food lovers of all ages. This even has moving parts, the function of which I can't explain! In every way I could have gotten more bang for the buck out of this set, I did. And the hair pieces are marvelous.
