Would you believe that I had difficulty building this set as a child because of the "new" hinge pieces. I recall the first attempt ending with a back section that would not open. After I figured it out, the set had a great amount of playability from the station to the vehicles.

Figuring it wasn't enough to index LEGO reviews, we decided we needed to write some as well! Simple and to the point, this blog is where three Swedish LEGO geeks vent and rave about the sets we buy.

Oh, and we're not related to The LEGO Group or The LEGO Company in any way shape or form. We just really like their toys, the AFOL community and the creativity of it all.
