BRIKSMAX Led Lighting Kit Compatible with LEGO-76989 Horizon Forbidden West:Tallneck - Building Blocks Model- Not Include The Lego Set

I usually don't write Amazon reviews. That said, the uniqueness of the service that Briksmax offers warranted it for me. I bought this product a few months back and had heard about how much time the set-up takes. That said, I only just installed it three days ago. Overall I'm very pleased with this set mod and bought another product from Briksmax today. Here's a list of my over all pros and cons. Pros: - looks absolutely awesome and takes the Lego set to a whole other level, which was what I was hoping for given the $40 price tag - the lights/wiring are high quality from what I can tell. Bending and squeezing parts between the Lego bricks had no negative effects - for me at least, the setup process was engaging and (mostly) enjoyable Cons: - for a quality product the follow along images in the instruction manual were not the highest quality, and making out visual instructions was difficult at certain times - it won't be a quick setup process. It took me five ish hours to do. I did it in one go and to be frank I was getting a bit antsy at the end - unavoidable side effect: while the wires are VERY thin, they're still not paper thin, and in places where they are imbedded between bricks it creates small gaps, decreasing the structural integrity of the set

After I finished decorating Tallneck with this light kit I can’t imaging Tallneck without it. This light kit has really brought him to life. Generally, I hate blinking lights but running lights on his head looks gorgeous. Also, I’m happy that I choose exactly this light kit for my Lego Tallneck. Thank you BRIKSMAX. I impressed with quality of materials you used for this build. Honestly, many times I thought that I squashed this lamp or inserted connector wrong way but when I turned switch on, I was surprised that IT WORKS. Lamps have nice color and bright enough to see it in day light too. You can only improve this kit in two ways: add remote control and mark these teeny - tiny connectors with some dot or mark on both sides to show correct way to insert connector. From my opinion it’s better to use a video from YouTube to complete this build. You also can use setting on YouTube to slow this video to speed you need or stop it to see more details. I used regular USB port to power this light kit, USB extension cable and USB cable with ON OFF switch. You can find this switch on Amazon and attach it with double sided glue tape to wall or table. You can see it in my video.

The kit comes with a detailed plan which explains step by step (180+ of those) how to get this set up. While performing these steps I even found a few mistakes which I have done when assmbling the model first. Amazing! But - this was not as easy as one might hope and it takes a lot of fiddling and finger control ability as well as good eye sight as the plugs and cables are extremely tiny. Also - the cables are really thin - but they are of course a bit thicker then nothingness. As such some pieces will not come as good together as they have been without it. A piece of advice: There are about 14 left over double sided sticky pads as left over in the end. They are potentially to be used to stick the cable excess to the model. This was not mentioned in the manual, but it will go a long way if done. Things which are great + Really bright, even in bright sunlight it is very well visible and in the night this is a floodlight... + Great manual which explains step by step on how to do it (180+ steps) + Really good packaging + Additional manual which explains the basics Things which could have been better: - The plugs are tiny, which is okay as they must be, BUT you can insert them both ways, correct and wrong and you have to make sure that it is correct as a mistake has to be corrected after you are done... Usually these plugs come with some "coding", would have been really nice to have that. If you are careful you will do it right, but it definitely can go wrong if you do not take care. - The USB cable could have been really a bit longer... This way you should potentially buy a USB extension cable with it. - The set is pretty expensive (I have seen another sets which even included a remote in a similar price) - There is a bit of a cable mess in a few places where all the cables come together. I think this is expected, but it would have been good if they would have highlighted that the additional double sided glue pads were meant to be used there. It occured to me after I was finished. This should really have been highlighted better in the manual.

Pros: -Bright good lighting on the Head, Neck fins, Belly and Traffic Light. -Sturdy cables can wistand some light punishment/pull. -Enough length to hide an wrap around even if not followed instructions. Cons: - Low/Dull light on Stalker, Tree, Butt underwhelming glow. (could be the LEGO pices quality and LED light bulbs combined) - Poor instructions on wire combination/twisting (it will be hard at times to figure out how to combine the wires and where to follow with them. Grade 3.8/5 : Looks fantastic. Will bright up corner or table if displayed in evening. HARD to put tougher. MUST be carful when assembling the conductor part or you will need to disassemble if a conductor not lighting up a part. WILL TAKE TIME!!! this is NOT an easy build and will take any where from 4 to 5H to get accomplished. P.S I would have preferred to have neck light up then back butt tail

Lights work exactly as pictured, with some movement along the edge of the tallneck. Instructions were very thorough and easy to understand, and included how to hide the cords inside the build for minimum visibility. The only complaint I have is that the wire connections are quite small, so I'd recommend having a sturdy set of tweezers or other tools to assist in getting everything plugged in. Overall very happy with the result!

After opening the box, I was kinda desperate right away, seeing the little parts, cables, etc. But I did this in spare time. With small sections first (the head), body, and so on. The picture instructions give this, not UH, but about medium-low difficulties. It would be easier if there are more texts in there explaining what and which. The how is pretty clear. There's instruction video too, Im planning to watch if I'm stuck, but thankfully the book was enough for me. After few hours spent, the result is priceless. I love it very much. I'm amazed how they made very detailed, especially the parts. There are even original Lego parts to replace few places to show off the lights, lol. My kids gonna jump seeing this 🤣 Tips: Put the USB to your PS4/PS5 port, and the Tallneck will glow too everytime you turn on the console.

Had some issues with the print instructions, ended up referring to the YouTube video. Which had its own set of issues. But together I got it all together. Looks nice but… The long connector from the head needed to be rerouted because the initial path ended up with the wire not working. “Unraveled” it and everything started working. Put it back and it seemed to get pinched or something, causing it to cut off again. Also the adhesives haven’t stuck for more than a few hours at a time. Each morning I enter the room and see at least a couple hanging in space. Debating how to sort it out without resorting to actual glue.

If you think the LEGO Tallneck looks great by itself, the light kit takes it to the next level. It does take a few hours to put together and should be viewed as adding an additional 1-2 "bags" to the LEGO kit. It's all wires and LED lights, with a few clear and colored studs. We are big fans of the horizon games and this is now my son's new nightlight. It comes with a battery pack that the USB can plug into, but I used an extension and connected it to a wall adapter. Works great!
