LEGO City Corner

Big Hit Gift
My 9 year old niece is Lego crazy, and this was a birthday gift big hit. Great City series starter set to build onto.

The heart of the Lego City
After reading the other reviews here, my wife and I decided that the Lego City Corner would be the perfect larger size playset for our 4-year old son, a budding Lego enthusiast. The City Corner features a 3-story pizzeria (complete with oven, tiny wine glasses and pizzas), a bike and skateboard shop, a bus stop, a city bus and five minifigures.

Complexity: There are close to 500 pieces in this set, so it was by far the largest project we've attempted. Still, Lego's clear instructions and the fact that each major section's pieces were separately bagged made assembly a breeze. My son is still too young to really work the smaller pieces, but he built many of the larger elements, such as walls, windows, roofs and doors, and of course the minifigures are his domain. All told, it took about 90 minutes to complete.

Playability: This is by far my son's favorite Lego set. He's already spent hours with it, assigning names and roles to the figures, loading and unloading them from the bus, and arranging dinners at the pizzeria. Once we brought the City Corner together with his other Lego City vehicles, he had an even better time. It's an almost frustration-free set as well.

The Lego City Corner isn't cheap, but it is worth every penny. It's the perfect "next step" for kids who are ready to go beyond just the Lego vehicles, and it's also just a lot of fun to put together and play with.

great product!
We purchased this for my son's birthday. He put it together with some parental assistance and has played with it quite a bit. It goes well with the other Lego City products.

My Son is Now Addicted to LEGOS!
My 8 year old was kind of into LEGOS so long as he had assistance, but this kit inspired him to work solo. He loved creating each structure and is eager to build more parts of Lego City! Love how each building or bus is in its own bag - makes for quick play. The directions were easy for my son to do on his own. He is HOOKED. :)

Great Lego Addition To Our Collection
I bought this for my daughter who is building a Lego town. She really found it easy to build, except for the bus which was a little tricky. It is fun to sit the people in the pizza parlor at tables. Also, you can get the pizza lady to put a pizza in a little oven with a door that opens. On the second floor of the pizza parlor there are windows that open. There is a skate shop that sells skateboards and hats. It comes with a guy that has a helmet and skateboard, so you can ride him around the city. The bus stop has a bench area that people can sit on especially a little business man guy. The detail in this set is impressive. Lego has come a long way since I was a kid.
