This set is a great addition to even an expansive Lego collection. Movement, sound, unusual gold elements, and more! Yes, the set is challenging but with patience I believe even less-experienced builders will be successful.br /br /TIPS FOR BUILDING: br /1. Since the bags are not numbered, you need to spend a little time in the beginning sorting parts. It's not necessary to COMPLETELY sort them, but getting things separated by color alone would be helpful.br /2. The carousel is built as a series of modules, where you construct the same item multiple times before assembling the section. If you have kids who can't build this set alone, they can still help by "copying" a module that you have correctly built. Many hands make quick work!br /3. It is CRITICAL that the moving elements be assembled with the proper amount of ease between parts. The manual clearly reminds you not to "mash" certain pieces too tightly together. Violating this guidance will cause your moving pieces to work herky-jerky or seize up completely.br /4. Test the movement as you go! Once you have the base complete and the motor attached, you should test the movement (both forward and backward) to ensure everything is moving smoothly. It's much simpler to make minor fitting adjustments at this point. Continue to test the motion after each layer is added to the base.br /br /As far as the music goes, my son said "That's like leprechaun music!" when we turned it on for the first time. True, it is not something we could normally hear on a carousel here in the US, but it's still festive.br /br /For price, I got this for around 0 which seems like a reasonable price. This item like many other unusual Lego sets, will eventually be in short supply and high demand, so it's worth getting it now. You never lose your investment in Lego, I have found!br /br /Great to look at, interesting movement and sound, and a conversation-starter when you have guests over. They will be amazed at the detail!
