Lego Crazy Action Contraptions
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-01-30 Summary: awesome ... I got this for my 8 year old for x-mas. Of all the Lego toys we have ever gotten him, I think this one is the most amazing and imaginative one. He first started following the instructions to build the ones that are shown in the book, which, btw are really cool, but now he is taking it to all new levels. Best $$$ I have spent for a toy in a long time. Love it.... ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-01-16 Summary: Unusual pieces- excellent purchase, excellent price...great find! ... My 7-yr-old son has been playing with the most intricate of lego pieces since he was 3-4. He loves this set because it has very unusual pieces allowing him to make new creations never seen before! Although we have tons of the specific lego sets, his favorites are by far those sets that allow for the imagination to go wild with endless building opportunities. While you can make many contraptions from the only the pieces and instructions included, this set also enhances building fun by adding them to your existing sets. ...more
[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-12-10 Summary: CRAZY ACTION CONTRAPTIONS NEEDS WORK ... I teach engineering classes in an elementary school so I thought this kit looked interesting. After several people building the designs(and much troubleshooting) we had to come to the conclusion that some of the models just don't work correctly. The "Supercharged Speedster" is very slow. The "Top Spinner" does not release the Top correctly so that it will hit the table spinning. But their first kit was great. ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-11-12 Summary: Having a blast building this with little kids! ... I enjoy building Lego with my kids and, frankly, we probably have all of the included parts already (if we were willing to take a few things apart). I was wary of the product because we aren't klutzes when it comes to things mechanical. But this has proved a great rainy-day toy that we can do together. We build a contraption, play with it for a week or two, and then take it apart and build the next one. Not all of the plans are terribly inspired, but it works for us. I should say that we are dealing with little kids ...more

[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-12-31 Summary: Advanced Lego Skills Required ... Forbidden Lego has some innovative and fun designs, and the description of the process Lego uses to design, approve and produce models is especially interesting. The models in this book would not pass this rigorous approval process, and the authors tell you exactly why - they might fire projectiles too fast or too quickly or require the alteration of an approved Lego piece. But the building instructions would also not pass Lego's quality control process, either. Some illustrations are missing the box that shows the ...more

Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | It just may be impossible to exhaust the creative potential of LEGO bricks. With an active imagination as your guide, there are endless possibilities--provided you follow the LEGO Company's official (and sensible) rules. This means no cutting or tampering with bricks, creating models that shoot unapproved projectiles, or using non-standard parts with any LEGO product.

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-02-21 Summary: Perfect for the little lego lover ... My 5 and 7 year old boys love these. They are wonderful. They give detailed instructions to make several items with the included legos. They also store nicely. They store like a book in the bookshelf. There is a box connected to the hard back book, and they all store nicely. My son plays with these almost every day. He has had them almost a month. I definitely will buy the rest of the sets. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2010-02-10 Summary: Step by Step instruction! ... Love the step by step instructions on how to build each item in the book. Even my 5 year old can follow some of the steps since they are all pictures. I wish you could make more than one item without taking apart your previous creation though. Lots of fun and has been enjoyed by our family. ...more
[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2010-02-01 Summary: Perfect gift for young Lego-lovers ... My sister told me that her youngest son (aged 4) loved Lego, and loved books. So, for Christmas we sent him a book of Lego. Went down very well, and our nephew has been happily playing and creating to his heart's content. Sure the book is completely unnecessary (in my day it was a folded up piece of paper with the instructions shoved into the box...), but hey - it looks cool, and its just a novel way of doing it that makes it unique and special. ...more

[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2010-01-27 Summary: not as good as the first, but, still fun! ... I loved the first indy jones game. It was my first lego game, so has a special place in my heart, but the 2nd game falls just short of the first game. it's still loads of fun, lots to do and quite entertaining. If you enjoyed the 1st game, you will certainly enjoy the 2nd. ...more
