I was nervous it was going to be too easy...

Posted by: MiniatureWrayth055
I wanted this set when it was announced and I still hemmed and hawed before finally buying it in a store a few weeks ago because I was nervous it was going to be tooooo simple and not a satisfying build. This was not a complicated build, but they really did a great job upping the complexity enough that it didn't seem like a duplo set. I'm super happy I have it now, I can't wait to decide where to display it. I also REALLY like another reviewer's idea to buy two sets and mix up everything in the 2nd set. I might do that in the future.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The quality is lacking..

Posted by: Carissmass
Out of all the Lego sets I’ve done this one is lacking in quality. For one I was missing a piece so I couldn’t even start building.. they had to ship me a new piece. Then as I’m building I’m noticing a bunch of spaces where I can see the colors underneath. It’s a cute build and I would recommend it but for the quality it should be cheaper. Some of my pieces even bent when I was trying to push them down to get rid of the spaces…
I would recommend this to a friend!

“Everyone Is Awesome” And An Awesome Set Too!

First forgive the length of my review. This set for me, is a very meaningful set. I have my own reasons which I will only say are not those of the “mainstream” populous. I hold them close to my heart and try to remember them at every opportunity which makes me a stronger individual in all my interactions with others throughout the day. Perhaps You’re wondering why I am telling you this? I mention it as it is important to remember that this design may have been created by a member of the LGBTA+ community and for sure has specific meaning for that group. For the designer and his community it represents a struggle fought for decades and continues to this day. The mini figs represent “differences” rather than those individuals with say that purple skin! In the same way there are many other people who are not necessarily represented such as those with disabilities etc. It is this unintentional ambiguity which allows it to be so very meaningful to so many “different” humans the world over!
As far as the set goes it is well constructed and very easy to assemble. It does as others have mentioned have the 18+ moniker which will allow a parent to look it over before passing it to the child and decide if a discussion should be included that might benefit said child. I also understand that believe it or not, there are countries that would not allow the set to be sold without it. I don’t know for sure but my guess is that for consistency as they have in all others, kept it at 18+ around the world. Perhaps some cynics might say it was for monetary gain to allow more sales but I prefer to have “my glass half full” rather than “half empty” and believe it was for the terrific messages that are possible and so badly needed in this era. Enjoy it!

There’s room under the sun for everyone!

Lego I am delighted with this set and if you are a customer considering purchasing it -DO IT! I appreciate LEGO highlighting the diversity of their customers, employees, and product lines. This set is great to gift kids and can be easily used as a fun teachable moment. It’s great for adult collectors as a vibrant display set. LEGO is fun for kids, but they also make growing up easy on adults! My only suggestion would’ve been one of the figures in a wheelchair because a set built upon diversity and inclusiveness should also represent our differently abled friends in it as well. But it’s a great set and my hats off to the designer. Happy Pride!

I received this Lego set for the holidays. I decided to build the background according to the directions but decided to diversify the minifigures to reflect people who positively impacted my life. I highly recommend this set!
