Recommendation: yes 5 / 5 from 8 reviews

Purchased this for my 8 year old grandson. He LOVES Bionicles and spends many hours assembling them and playing with them. He has a long attention span and enjoys the challenge of mastering the put-together. This added to his extensive collection, so glad he liked it. Shipped very quickly - great purchase.

Don't do it, kids. Just say no. Even if everyone else is doing it; you wouldn't jump off a cliff if everyone else was doing that, would you? Tarix is boring, unoriginal, looks goofy, lacks in awesome, and is overall terrible. I do not reccommend Tarix, and, instead, re-reccommend Gresh, who is super awesome, and super pretty.

Brick Insights

Brick Insights is a LEGO review aggregator. We collect LEGO reviews from all over the net and analyse them. At worst we're the largest index of LEGO set reviews on the net. At best we can tell if a set is worth buying!

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.
