My daughter (15 yrs) and I spent the afternoon building 3 of the 4 Disney storybooks. Oh my! They are just the cutest! Like Disney Pollypockets! We really enjoyed the detail on it. From the stickers to put on to the size and shape of the characters. Ariel is so cute with her tail and the flower in her hair!
There are two sides to every story, and that's definitely true in these two-sided construction sets. Disney Princess fans will have fun playing out different scenes from their favorite Disney movies. These sets are easy to build, inspire kids to imagine their own stories, and are totally portable for play on the go. We also like the cute look of the new micro-dolls. Those might be fun for collectors, too.
Final thoughts? Like the other storybooks, this is fun. The micro-dolls are super cute, and it would make a good travel set for a Little Mermaid fan. Personally, it is my least favorite so far. The central build doesn't work well from both sides, but is fun from the ocean side.
For sets of this small size, that was a pretty long list of new and rare elements. And I haven't talked about the completely new parts yet!
My daughters (9, 7 and 4) repeatedly pull the sets out of the display cabinet to play with them. It triggers their fantasy to come up with all kind of adventures, despite the sets being small. This is the purpose of these sets. I, as an AFOL, am spoiled with large, complex sets that end up on a shelf. But not these sets. These are meant to be played with, as LEGO is, at its core. And these deliver on that. So they get a high passing grade from me.
