Recommendation: meh 4.3 / 5 from 21 reviews

I bought this for my son for Christmas. I had been searching for a while for a good price for this lego set and one day it was really cheap as far as lego sets go! Lets just say this mom was super excited and the look on my sons face was priceless. Item has great instructions and I love how lego puts one or two items in a bag so you can build those and move onto the next item. This a great set. I love all of the cars, they have such great detail!

Blah blah blah these Cars sets are becoming painful to review. And I apologize for phoning this one in but that's how much effort I feel that the LEGO set designers put in these sets. I was really looking forward to them too but after reviewing every set from 2011, I'm more disappointed than anything. If I were to sum up the theme in a few words, I'd have to say that the minicars overall are done very well with some standout characters but the sets are very lackluster.
