The helicopter and dinosaur are simply awesome, some of the best designs ever to come from Lego. I'm glad I spent the money to get this set!

Recommendation: yes by TobyMac

Yes, this is what I was hoping for. The Control Center itself is a bit limited to today's standards, but it is a lot of fun. My kids loved playing with it. Normally, when I've finished a build, it gets parted out into my collection. But this one will stay unique, separated from the rest. If you ever have the chance to get a good, complete set: Go for it.
