High price compared to other Lego products is half justified by some special parts. But these special parts are hard to assemble into other creations. You must have an impressive collection of Lego to create something with parts from this set. And not being convertible it could have been not demountable. You just can't do and undo the same model 'cos you will get bored.
But as a knick-knack is looks perfect. Some advantage not available to every Lego is that it holds well together which is something good as usually kids love to bump them and get them to all sort of tortures (lol) that test their mechanical resistance.
The mini fig and the 2 beacons and the barrier and the sign are some welcome additions, such some mini scene is complete without adding some other toys, which sometimes may not be possible.
You buy it, put it in your kids hands and for 2 hours : PEACE AND QUIET.
Pretty cool.
We managed to take it at around $24.90 on some site but official price is 13.69 £. Suited for age group 5-12, but as you can imagine we play at our age (so is good for any age, having the excuse that you supervise your kid or play with him) Number of pieces are quite enough: 189
