LEGO: Wright Brothers Plane Review

LEGO: Wright Brothers Plane
Average Reviews:

I must say this set was extremely frustrating to build. It is the least structurally sound Lego set I have ever built. Granted Lego was limited in what they could do because they were copying an existing design, but that is no excuse for the problems I had.
First, attaching the cockpit area caused the lower wing to fall apart multiple times. Once I finally got that attached (after about 20 minutes) I built the upper wing and had to attach that one to. For the next 2 hours I sat there rebuilding the lower wing, cockpit and upper wing to get it attached right. Like I said, EXTREMELY frustrating. It took close to 4 hours to build when it should not have taken more than 2.
After it was all built I think it looks great sitting on a shelf, where it will collect dust because if I dusted it, it would fall apart.

The Wright Brothers Plane is a detailed LEGO model of the world's first powered airplane built by Orville and Wilbur Wright and flown from Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, USA on December 16, 1903. Orville Wright was the first to fly the plane, but his brother Wilbur made the longest journey (of 852 ft.) that day. The model is made up of 664 parts and is 19"L x 6" high, with a wingspan of 21".

LEGO Avatar Air Temple Review

We bought this for our 8 year old daughter. It requires a good deal of time to put together and will require Mom or Dad's help (in our case, both). This made the toy a good family activity and we were able to put it together sitting in the middle of the living room floor over the course of several nights. The lego mechanics used are neat and thought provoking. My daughter has enjoyed playing with the legos and uses her imagination to rearrange them to build different items around the temple. I would recommend a plastic storage box for the temple and its associated pieces, otherwise you will be finding them with your feet and vacuum cleaner. Do count on further family activities as you engage in Avatar vs. Fire Nation battles with your child. I only gave four stars because of the complexity of the directions. An older child (about 10) would be able to assemble this alone, but may not get as much enjoyment out of it. It is definitely a family fun activity that any Avatar fan will enjoy.

LEGO Star Wars: Ewok Attack (7139) Review

This interesting set has lots of nice things in it. First there's a cool catapult complete with two "rocks". The speederbike is a great addition and so is the hang glider. The speederbike has a scout trooper and the hang glider(which had wings which were hard to get on) is well made. My brother bought the AT-ST, and you can also fire the stones at it. I also think that speederbikes should be sold separately so you can have more fun. The Ewoks in the set rock! Buy this set today. *It's awesome*

The Ewoks are ready to defend their world from the Empire. Shoot stonesat the stormtrooper with the Ewok catapult, or drop a rock from the Ewok hangglider to slow down the Imperial speeder bike. The set includes Ewoks, astormtrooper, and a biker scout.
