Fantastic set for Enthusiasts and Lego fans alike
on July 25, 2021
Posted by: Alex
This set checks every box; size, build, playability, figures, and value. The size of it is phenomenal, the build was difficult but payed off, and do I even need to bring up the playability? Everything about this set is nearly, if not, perfect. My only complaint is about the excessive amount of 2x2 circle bricks (over 500!). I also had a missing 2x8 white brick, but since it's such a common piece I found a replacement in no time. Other than that, this set is phenomenal.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Movable piece ussues
on October 29, 2021
Posted by: Librarianbarb
The chain continues to break upon continued use and is difficult to fix. Only 4 rubber bands given so if 1 breaks unable to replace and mechanism is stymied. The building of the structure is fine but the use fails.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Exciting Ride!
on November 17, 2021
Posted by: QuietestFluffyScutter
This is the largest sized set I have built so far and it was really, really fun. An exciting "ride" to piece it all together and watch it work. I motorized it and added my own lighting with LEGO parts. I created big spotlights and put them on the Powered UP app. I call my set "East Coaster" because of where I grew up. I highly recommend this set for build and play.

Good

I built this set and I came across one of the baseplate lifts of of my table and one a piece Is disconnected from the baseplate the plate remains flat as should be. I am writing this to Lego because this is a big issue for me and does not look good in my city. But overall pretty good build to put under my city.
I would recommend this to a friend!

One of my favorite builds yet!
on January 11, 2026

Verified Purchase:No
I bought this item through a reseller as it’s been retired for a few years now and while I paid a significant premium, it was so worth it. The coaster is super fun to build, the tracks are so much fun and the power up connection made it so much cooler. I’ll have to find the Loop coaster now in the hopes it’ll be just as fun.
I would recommend this to a friend!
