Recommendation: meh 4.7 / 5 from 197 reviews

It is a really intricate set and was fun to put together. I think that this set was my favorite. Each time I check it out I find new features (hidden compartments and weapons) just like you would expect. It is a little short, but it is not tiny. I am glad that I read reviews before purchasing because I was expecting something much smaller and was pleasantly surprised by the height :) I would definitely recommend this set!

My 8 year old son received this set for his birthday and after building it, he played with it all day. We haven't seen the Age of Ultron movie yet, but he loves his superheroes and this set is a great addition to his collection. First the technical stuff... Instructions were clear and assembly went pretty easily. We took turns since there were four main stages of building, and of course, parts were separated and bagged based on the stages. The only negative I have for the main build is that there were quite a few stickers (we hate stickers). Placement was relatively easy if you're looking for a silver lining to that cloud. I did dock the play experience one star because play was a little cramped inside the tower. The rooms are a good size and come with nice, neat little bits, like the stretcher and syringes, etc, but quite a few times while placing or removing a mini figure, things got knocked out of place. Other than the little bit of cramped space, this is a wonderful set and looks great when its fully assembled. My son wanted me to let people know that his favorite part is the upper floor and how the deck can be knocked apart. Enjoy, and happy building!

There is a lot of cool detail in this set to help Avengers: Age of Ultron fans play out favorite scenes from the movie or imagine all-new adventures. Fans will love the set's moving pieces, hidden features, and Super Jumper piece that all bring some action into the building play.

Recommendation: meh 82 / 100 by Tom

This set has a decent value, even at full price. It also comes with five nicely designed Minifigures. The building has a nice look, and some fun play features for a younger crowd. For older collectors, it is not a stand alone piece that can be easily incorporated into a LEGO City. It lacks realism in terms of size and accessibility. The build itself is enjoyable, and not a bad value as far as LEGO sets in general are concerned. If you are looking for extra windows and parts, this is a great set to acquire.

Recommendation: no 4 / 5 by Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Overall, the Attack on Avengers Tower (76038) is a pretty well-built set. Although it may be a little smaller than what fans were expecting, it's cool that we at least get a tower. If you're comparing the size of the minifigures to the tower, the tower is a tower and has a good size to it. The minifigures are well designed with a couple being exclusive to this set. There is also the clear Super Jumper piece that I do not recommend using because it damages the back of the minifigure legs.
