Castle Forest Ambush

I have been a huge Lego fan since before I started kindergarten, and still have some of the pieces from those first sets I got as a child. I have been excited since they released these new sets, and have purchased all 5 released so far. I almost rated this set 4 out of 5 stars because on its own, it does not make a very exciting toy, but when combined with the other sets in this theme, it is a great addition, so I had to give it a 5 - besides, it comes with four minifigs. I can only assume that someone interested in this set would be interested in others in the same theme. Together they all rate 5 stars: 70401 - Gold Getaway - ***** +/- $27 70402 - The Gatehouse Raid - ***** +/- $30 70403 - Dragon Mountain - ***** +/- $50 70404 - King's Castle - ***** - +/- $125

I bought this as a gift for my little brother. I was able to help him put it together. It was a lot of fun and a cute set for the price. It comes with a lot of neat pieces including small gems to go in a treasure box and a cute dog. Great gift for all ages! My husband even loves it so I bought him one of his own.

This set was purchased to add to the Legos I already have in my grandkids' playroom. They have been using Lego City sets up until now so this one is something different and they love it!! One warning: the pieces are very small so assembly may require adult supervision for the younger age group. Legos are the best toys out there; they last forever and spark kids' imagination as they are so versatile!!! They are expensive though so I like to buy them when there is a rare price reduction or part of the "add on" program.

As with most Angry Bird items - our boys enjoy them and they seem reasonably made - just much too expensive for what you really get. Be aware that with most Angry Bird knock-down toys, young children can get frustrated with the stacking of the blocks. Sometimes difficult for an adult on the more complex items

The boys in our family love Legos. This was nice I just didn't realize it was so small. I bought two and they are tiny boxes. I guess I should have paid more attention to the number of pieces it had. I was embarrassed to give it to my nephew because they (I got him two sets) were so tiny, two litttle boxes wrapped up for Christmas, it didn't look impressive so I ended up buying him another set and gave him three total. Good thing my sis in law knows Legos are pricey and she knows I didn't spend $5 on his Christmas present.

I love this little set. For 9 dollars is is a steal. Considering you pay 10 for 3 minifigures at the Lego Store, this set comes with four cute figures, all with helmets and accessories. My kids loved everything about it. It had moving parts (a tree that falls over), a wagon for transport, and - my kids favorite - a chest full of gold and jewels. For the price and size of the set, this was played with far longer than a 60 dollar set I purchased recently!

This is the smallest Castle Lego set. I think the Gold Getaway set and the King's Castle set are the best. But this one is good because it has four minifigs, a dog, a cart for carrying the treasure and weapons, and a mini forest (one tree and some shrubbery) for ambushing the Lion Kingdom's soldiers. This is great for playing. You can take it almost anywhere.

Very cool little set for a reasonable price. My 5-year old loves building it on his own with the booklet it came with. We like that this is a smaller set to bring to restaurants while we wait for our food -- a good alternative to tablets & smart phones.

- great set for boys who are interested in medieval times - great price - we used it for "loot bag" for our 10 yr. olds medieval times birthday party

This was exactly what we expected, great price. My son has most of the lego castle sets and really enjoys them.

My son loved it
