Buy super glue when you purchase this.

I was so excited for this set just for it to fall apart everywhere. You’ll need some superglue with this set.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We understand how frustrating it can be when pieces aren't staying in place as they should. However, you should never need to use super glue to keep your sets together. If you'd like a hand troubleshooting the build, please give us a shout at LEGO.build/Service-BV.
I absolutely love the Good Fortune set. It is a beautiful addition! I already had the Lucky Cat, so this felt like the perfect set to complete my display. The build was fun and detailed, and the final result is vibrant and full of charm. It really captures the spirit and looks fantastic on the shelf.
Like others, I found parts of the build are very loose. The mandarin just sits on top, the vase will wobble and fall. It's great to set up the individual components but putting them together could use some super glue. I haven't started the fan just yet, you have two ways you can design it. I'm definitely choosing bag 7 with the Kingfishers birds. Though it would have been nice if one could set up both designs, say a smaller mini fan? But overall, I got this when it was sale so I'm happy. Even if it's June.
This build is beautiful. I loved putting the separate elements together and bringing them together at the end. I even made some modifications to the fan. It looks so good displayed on my shelf!
The instructions state that the two versions of the build cannot be built simultaneously, but they CAN. The “tree limb” option builds is built onto the fan in the absence of the parts for the “completed fan” option; it mounts to the fan using a small raised attachment structure. I simply placed the completed “tree limb” aside and used the parts (bag #8) to complete the fully decorated fan, then replaced several of the parts in the attachment structure with square red bricks which would fit into the corresponding void on the surface of the now fully-decorated fan, finally mounting the “tree limb” over the completed fan. I like the result.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really love this set and appreciate how much thought they gave into this one. Very organized by bags and had extras, so that was a plus. It had separate direction books per piece, so I really appreciated that. The persimmon was definitely the cherry on the top for me. Really happy Legos had a line up for the Asian Lunar New Years 🥰 This line up was very different and fun to do. So beautiful, once I finish the set with my daughter, I'm going to display it in the front of my business to bring us some more fortune.
