Recommendation: yes 4.5 / 5 by Oky

This set is great for any TMNT fan, especially young ones! Even if you're not a fan of the turtles, it still has a lot of great parts and figs to offer at a fair price. Some aspects of it could have been executed better and the cobbled-together look will not appeal to everyone, but those are mostly just nitpicks as the set works the way it is.

The Brick Fan

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

If you've ever watched the animated series on Cartoon Network, then you can tell that the LEGO version of the turtle lair looks very similar to the cartoon version. What's neat about the lair is the detailing that LEGO put in such as the long translucent green pieces to make it look like dripping ooze. There are plenty of play features to keep you entertained for while. Plus, this is the only way to get Splinter minifigure so if you want a complete set of the heroes, you probably have to get this set unless you go on the secondary market.
