LEGO 6385798 Classic 90 Years of Play 11021 Toy Building Kit (1100 Pieces)

This set is absolutely packed with creativity and models made from simple pieces. Yes, there's a nostalgia value, but the real delight is in the range of themes included in the set and the interpretations through simple bricks and simple building methods. There's no compact building of plates or a confusing jumble of tightly-packed parts, it's just bricks on bricks. It's a delight to see these classic sets remembered in this way. The set comes packed with creative bricks beyond just those used for the models displayed, allowing you or your child to explore a whole range of designs. I really hope LEGO takes note from this set and goes back to their roots to make simple sets from simple bricks with broader, more general themes. Pieces to note: there's a curved 2x1 slope which I've never seen before, and the train wheels are really fun. Favourite models: The Fabuland elephant is packed with personality and feels like the ambassador of the set, and the spaceship is very swooshable.

What a great way to commemorate 90 years of Lego! This great set gives some miniature replicas of historic and contemporary themes, and provides plenty of additional bricks encompassing the breadth of the Lego range over 90 years. Excellent!
