LEGO Disney Mickey Mouse & Minnie Mouse Buildable Characters 43179 (1,739 Pieces)

This set was great fun to build and looks fantastic. The images don't really do the completed set justice. I'm usually more of a Lego architecture fan but this provided the perfect contract with bright colours and dare I say it.... Disney magic. My only (constructive) criticisms are that the hands/gloves are not the best designed in their build and the fingers are too easily detached from the hands. Otherwise a brilliant set and build!

It is fun to build this set. Although some repetition but over all was fun. Only one thing wanna mention is that if Mickey can be just a little more stable, like Minnie, would be better.

This is a set that is no longer produced. I do not trust online purchasing often but Walmart gives me a lot of confidence. This is a large set and is a handsome display. This is perfect for any Disney fan but especially if you also love to build Lego.

Like many people are saying, this set is super-cute. In fact, my wife helped build some of the accessories and she's not a Lego builder! I would love to see more Disney (and Pixar) characters in this style of Lego sets. I second (or third) the vote for a Lego set of Woody and Buzz, from Toy Story. I've built the Disney Castle, UCE Tie Fighter, UCE Millennium Falcon. This set was more fun than the TIE Fighter and Falcon and as much fun as the Disney Castle. In fact, I need to build the Castle again so it can be displayed between Mickey and Minnie! However, the set was missing two 1x8 plate pieces, which connect the nose to the head! This isn't a case of me not seeing a piece, since a 1x8 plate is hard to miss, especially when I'm building the set on a white table. Yes, I ordered replacement pieces, but waiting for them to arrive would have stopped the build process. I had to dig through another Lego set and find the pieces so I could connect the nose and finish the set. I had trouble with some steps because the instructions are on black paper, which sometimes made it hard to see the dark brown and dark blue pieces. I wish the instructions were printed on white paper, like other sets. After reading the description, I'm confused. "Fully posable figures". Did I do something wrong, because only the hands and thumbs on my models are poseable- the arms and head are locked in place and don't turn. "Change their expression with interchangeable eye elements"? My set came with 2 eye/ forehead elements: one with eyebrows (Minnie) and one without (Mickey). I also didn't see any way to change this element since it's specifically made for this set. However, I understand that these are figures meant to be displayed and they have limited playability.

This lego set was very fun to build. It is challenging mainly because it is tricky to get everything put together without parts falling off. The heads are very heavy, so to move around I removed the head. This is the first Lego set where I was really tempted to try some glue on the feet, but I got it assembled without. To move around i suggest taking off the heads. I love the opposible thumbs. I did not try to have Mickey hold the Ukelele as it seemed it might not stay balanced.

I walked into the Lego store at Disney Springs just to window shop and the store had this set on display. I've never built anything with Lego's before and the price really caught me off guard. With that said I thought it was so cute I went ahead and purchased. My issue with this set (besides the high price) was bag 2 was missing pieces. It was easy to order replacement parts online however disappointing that I had to stop building and wait a couple weeks. The directions were easy to follow and as soon as the missing pieces arrived I was able to complete the set. Will buy more sets in the future.

This is the first set I have ever had a missing piece. For the amount of money I spent on this I would not expect to have anything missing. I am so upset. 5 hours to build and on the last piece it's gone. I am a grown woman and live alone. I know it did not fall on the floor. I am upset that now I have to buy a piece and wait weeks for it to get here Strange they put two of the large round grey pieces in. So I have an extra of that and a missing piece of the Ukulele Just very very disappointed

I loved both Minnie and Mickey when they were first made. However as many other people have said Mickey just doesn't last. He has completely given up and is now a torso and head rest against a wall while his legs just stand not supporting anything. He is definitely top heavy and will need a full rebuild but I'm not convinced that will help either.

product retiring. wish description hsd in it box is damaged because it lowers value.

I am a massive Lego fan and anything Disney or Harry Potter themed I have to buy immediately. Unfortunately with this set mickey is ready to collapse. Minnie has held her structure very well, but mickey seems like he is far too top heavy. Very disappointed!
