this board is too flimsy to build anything of size
on February 6, 2016
Posted by: Lonny
i have just gotten back into the Lego's as a hobby, some of the changes made with pieces , ( this base plate, and the larger roofing pieces not being available) is very disappointing , i really spent a lot of my time building different styles of houses, interior designing as well as the exterior, so projects were quite large, and these plates can't hold up to the weight , and the larger roofing pieces made a easier on the eye roof line , and not as many pieces to complete a roof line, if i missed somewhere that this roof piece was still available i would have ordered a lot more. at this point i am not sure getting back in to this when most pieces seem more small child toy building, than an adult hobbyist
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from LEGOBy Jordan - Core Product Specialist, Consumer Services, February 11, 2016
One of the biggest issues builders seem to make with the baseplates is moving them around once a creation rests on top of them. The baseplate is designed to be the base of a model to be set directly on a flat and level surface and not to be used for transporation of your projects or LEGO sets. Perhaps knowing the purpose of the baseplate will make it less frustrating for you going forward.
In regards to the roof elements please contact LEGO Consumer Services so you can discuss this with an advisor so we can help determine what you are looking for and if that element might still be in production.

Simple, yet appealing.

The green base plate is very nice, like ice in a refreshing beverage on a warm summer's day.

Amazing Baseplate

This is a good start to build my city considering that its my first normal baseplate. Most people are hating this cause its light green but its simple that you can put it in spots for a park.

Color not good
on May 26, 2019
Posted by: JJWall8404
Bottom line up front is, what color you have displayed for this item, is 100% inaccurate. The original base plate was green, now it is bright green and honestly the bright green is unpleasant to look at. It does not match nor fit in with anything for mocs, etc. This bright green does not represent grass at all. Please, PLEASE go back to what the real color of green truly is.

Several problems with this product
on January 17, 2018
Posted by: Mechwarrior94
I been a loyal customer for almost my entire life, I just love to build with LEGO. Even did beta tests for several LEGO PC games. But this product rather makes me very disappointed in the company.
I expected to buy a product from the same quality as in the past. While I never really did have much money to buy much, I focused mostly on getting sets that would add to my total bricks and useful bricks. This caused me to skip on the ground plates which are rather expansive to start with. I do have mostly plates from the 80's and 90's, but these new ones are rather a completely new thing that adds a lot of problems.
1. Quality is rather poor compared to the original, thicker plates. It bents way to easy and with that it could likely be unusable in no time depending on who is using it. A child may for example bend it during playing within a month. A adult may find a similar problem within the year of intensive usage. Which is a serious problem due to it's fairly high price for 1 item.
2. Color is way off, this is a light green and not the original green that was sold in the 80's and 90's. It should be re-branded as 'light green' and a original green color variant should be placed back in the product line.
I keep noticing these problems with many more parts that LEGO produces lately, which is a big problem for the amount of money you pay as customer. Of course this also adds a even bigger problem in case of small parts breaking off. For a adult that may be just a sad feeling left behind or angry that it broke so easily. But for kids it could mean that they manage to swallow it with obvious things following.
For the colors, this seems to be happening with a lot of original colors on the bricks. You won't hear me if these were added to what LEGO has in it's arsenal so to speak. But replacing the old, which never really happened before in such a huge way, is a huge no-no. I strongly will ask LEGO to NEVER do that again in the future. It will seriously cause problems for those that don't have the money to buy often or much but still have the same hobby long after their childhood. Also it causes a lot of confusion as you never know what to expect when you buy a set. Kids may not really even know or notice, but for the long time expert builders this is a huge problem.
My tip for parents with young children:
Please don't be afraid of my review, kids will manage to break what ever they can. This is how they learn the quickest. It may also teach them not to break something and expect to get rewarded for it by a brand new toy.
For the color variation in this and other lego products, don't feel bad because of it. Kids have a very rich imagination and will 100% for sure find a reason why they have suddenly a different color and how to use it to the best of their abilities.

For LEGO company:
I highly urge to work on the points that I pointed out, as fan of the company myself I would hate to see LEGO go down on something so silly. Yet unfortunately it could easily happen with current day foolishness in the world. Please be welcome to contact me, I would love to help out to restore order in the madness created the last decades.
