This tree looks cool but I don’t think it’s worth the asking price. Most of the pieces are tiny. Lots of green plates. Our instruction booklet wasn’t printed great and it was hard to tell the color of the pieces. This was exacerbated by the fact that NONE OF THE BAGS ARE NUMBERED! I don’t understand why that happened. By step 10 you’ve had to open 5 bags and most of them are for just 1 shape. This leads to a large mess and lots to sort through while building. No “1 bag at a time” on this set. Again the end result looks pretty cool, but the build was one of my least favorite.
The kit is great once it is together. But putting it together is another story. Bags are not numbered. You need to search through multiple bags in order to complete a single step. Not at all like all the other previous kits I have assembled.
I ordered this February 2024 and only got around to starting it this month. Didn’t realize the bags were unnumbered, and opted to do the 2nd build with the two trees. I’m missing all the 2x6 pieces, all the 6070442 pieces (13 of them), and probably others. I have not gone through it piece-by-piece to know what I’m missing that I probably should just buy a new set but this is too much. Seeing other 1 star reviews helps to know I’m not the only one. If other people had extra pieces, maybe those were supposed to be the ones I needed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Oh no! It's disappointing when your build isn’t going as planned. Make sure there isn't a bag still stuck in the box. If not, we're happy to help. Please give us a call or chat at LEGO.build/Service-BV so we can get the parts you need requested!
Cute but mine was missing the long black rod so I’m not able to complete it. I was hoping to decorate my house with it to go with my other Christmas sets. Waiting two weeks for a part is disappointing but I probably have one somewhere I’ll just have to go sort though 1,000 of parts in boxes that are stored away. It definitely put a damper on my Lego building evening. Also, since I had to open every bag due to them being unnumbered, and unsorted within the bags, I now have a bigger mess to try and store away.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We're sorry to hear you had to pause your build and are glad you got in touch to let us know. Your requested parts will ship from Denmark and you'll be back to building in no time!
I have to say this is my least favorite build and for several reasons.
1. First of all, it’s been not nice to build layers of the tree. 2. Trying to align the layers once they’re built was frustrating. 3. I have never had as many pieces left over from a build as I had from Christmas tree. 4. The candles that you can construct are not well thought out because they pop off constantly. 5. The fact that you had to open every single bag to begin, the construction was not fun, considering 90% of the tree is green. 6. And the fact that you cannot get any insider points for this, it’s kind of ridiculous..
