LEGO The Taiga Adventure 21162 Building Set (74 Pieces)

This small set is one of the most fantastic Minecraft sets I bought this year. When I first bought it I had thought nothing of it but once I got it built I was blow away by it. The fact that it comes with four characters to play with along with a small amount of terrain is quite awesome. The fact that this set is so cheap as well makes it even more of a great purchase. I my self have bought three of these sets, two for my self and one as a Christmas present to a friend. I bought the second one after I had fallen in love with the first one and wanted to increase my taiga biome area and get more of the excellent characters. If I ever see any more of these in stock I will most defiantly be making a purchase. I would HIGHLY recommend this set to a friend!

I enjoy cheap splurge sets like this. I'm glad they included 4 "figures" for 10. Good value. For kids who like minecraft this set is perfect. Not complex and identifiable figures. I'm glad this exists for them. For adults this set is awesome too. Steve at least comes with gold pants, which is appreciated variety. The fox is...not perfect but at least it is different and a new figure instead of yet another skeleton. Speaking of which, the skeleton is here. Massable, so not too annoying. I love the berry bushes and that they give the new fire element which will be great for MOCs. The 2x4 jumper is odd, but might be useful. I'd love it if Lego made the skeletons legs have boots as they often do in game. Lego has the perfect part for this in the first waves of ninjago, but they were black so the wrong color. I would love skeleton boots.

Lego's are such creative toys. My grandson is 6 years old. He is normally a very active boy and is doing 10 things at once. When he builds these things with Lego's he is so focused. He will build these things for hours. Take them apart and start all over. Great imaginative toys.

Purchased as a Birthday gift and the person liked it! Buyers beware! I purchased this item in-store and I found out while checking out my items that the bar code on this particular item had been cut out and taped onto a much high priced LEGO item so the person could get it for $10 not $60. I found 2 of the same lower priced logo boxes had missing bar codes. Look for the bar codes when shopping in the store! At least shopping online you will not have that issue.

Really nice set. I cannot say it is the best Minecraft set thus far, but it is a nice set. All of the figures are good. We'll go over them now: Steve: overall a solid minfigure. Neat that he has the golden legs. Same figure since 2014 though... I feel that Steve needs some dual-molded arms! Skeleton: like Steve, same figure since 2014. Not a bad thing though, as this Skeleton looks awesome as always! The addition of the fire piece to show him burning as it is day time (or, maybe Steve's sword has Fire Aspect?) is really great. Wolf: not totally sure if the wolf is supposed to be a tame wolf or a wild one, but it looks pretty good. Same build as the other ones as far as I can tell, but new printing for the face. Fox: the first-ever LEGO Minecraft fox, and it looks pretty good. My only problem with it is that it reuses the cat/ocelot head piece, and the eye-printing does not wrap around to the sides of the head. Hopefully the fox can come in a future set with a proper head-mold. The set: overall, this set is a good display piece. It includes Sweet Berries and a TNT explode function, which are neat. Here are the pros and cons of the set: Pros: A two-by-four jumper? Awesome! Even more awesome? There are two of them! Fire for Skeleton Sweet Berries! Clever use of the new flower piece in red and the old one in green for the berries themselves. Glad that they are removable from the bushes! The set also includes enough pieces to build one extra berry, which is nice. TNT-fun play feature for kids Cons: Fox reusing the cat/ocelot head The amount of pros far outweighs the cons for this one. I definitely recommend it for any Minecraft fan!

This is an awesome Lego set but the fox looks too much like a cat but it's part of the dog family I would like to ask that you change it to look a little like the dog more to make it more realistic.

The item was great in which I ordered online. When I opened the package the box was all smashed. This was suppose to be a gift but there is no way I can give that as a gift because it looks used. If you purchase this product online hopefully the item will be package better.

product came in a giant box... packaging already ripped. what used to be the 5.99 legos is now over $10. It should come completely intact looking perfect for that price! Ugh. Lego's and Walmart are starting to be more of a disappointment than they are worth. All for a product that will take out any grown man. I mean I guess its worth it for the home security.

On the one hand, I appreciated the quick shipping. On the other hand, I bought this as a gift, and it was shipped in a non-padded plastic envelope, so the box was completely crushed. I haven't even looked to see if the pieces are also crushed because I can't give this as a gift like this. I'm all for not using so many boxes, but it was not a smart choice to ship something like this in this type of packaging and with no padding at all. If you don't mind the package of a gift being crushed, then this is probably okay for you.

The very small Lego set is a cute little toy. Unfortunately i feel misled by the price. The sets you pay 20-25 for in the lego store or even Walmart which is where i purchased it online are a much bigger box.! I opened the box expecting a lego box the usual size for that price but it was one of the ones you pay 9 for in store; not much bigger than a little box of animal crackers . That's more than double the price. And it's for my 8 year old grandson for Christmas. His last gift. And now I have to go shopping in store ( yuk) for another gift because this one is inadequate
