LEGO Ninjago Movie Water Strider 70611 Building Kit (494 Piece)

I’m writing this review from the point of view of an adult fan of LEGO. The model itself is great—fun to put together, and looks fantastic.But the real reason I’m even bothering to write this review is that this is a fantastic deal if you are looking to kit-bash (use the pieces for other projects). There is a large variety of interesting pieces here, including four minifigures and some weapons, things you won’t ever get in the generic tubs of bricks that LEGO also sells.And here’s the kicker—with the current amazon discount (20% off MSRP), this set works out to be under the magical bar of $0.05 per piece. It’s the only set for sale directly from amazon (as opposed to third party sellers) that has that distinction, period, including the generic tubs of LEGO bricks specifically designed for creative play. The deal is so good, with such great pieces, that I bought three copies of this set: one to build and display, and the other two to cannibalize for parts.

Very detailed. My son loves it!

6 yr old grandson went crazy over this. Be advised that there are over 400 parts and many are very small. It took a total of 4 hours to put it together but that may have been related to a 6 yr old in the control lead. It shoots little blue clear "missiles" that can get lost very easily if not aimed in a direction that makes them easy to find. Avoid carpet. Great fun and well built when finished. Highly recommend.

So awesome and my boys have gotten loads an hours of fun!!! One of those boys is my husband so there’s that, lol. He puts them together and our four and six-year-olds tear them apart and create new awesome thing-a-bobs from it! Legos! It was really cold while it lasted! Luckily it comes with a nice booklet so my husband can put it back together again! Ha.

Was looking for a LEGO set for a gift, and this one was simply the biggest bang for the buck. It has a lot of pieces, and makes a pretty impressive robot thing that any kid would love.It is interesting that it is only about half the price, on average around the web, as any other LEGO sets of comparable size. Can't really figure out how they price the things, but this was a good deal!

My 12 year old daughter bought this and is glad she did. She enjoyed putting it together and said she would have been disappointed if she didn't have to assemble the legs (I guess previous reviews said it was a bummer they had to assemble the legs?) after all...part of the fun of Legos is building them. She plays with it often :)

It’s inexpensive, I paid less than $24. It’s very cool looking when completed. The only thing I like to improve is they should include another joint at the top of each legs. As of right now, it’s basically a fixed X shape bottom with four legs join to it. But if you consider the price, it was a fun project.

We purchased this as a gift for a 9 year-old friend, and it was the perfect choice! This is a great option for LEGO Ninjago movie fans since it's more unique than a lot of other options. The recipient also loved the included minifigs. Since this is a good-sized set, it makes an impressive gift!
