My 11 y.o loves it

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My 11 y.o son loves Lego and he picked this one for his next build challenge. It took him a good few weeks to do this but I have to say that the details on these are amazing. Lots of small intricate pieces, enough to confuse you but that's part of the challenge. Lego does it again. Highly recommend if you want to be challenged.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a yet another great set from Lego. I have tried other brands in the past, and none work as well and fit as nice as Legos do. The instructions are spot on, and took me a few days to get this one completed, looks very nice on display
This set was one of the best I've ordered in a long while. It's was fun to build and looks an amazing! I can't say enough good things about this set. As a display set its base is good and and the arrangement makes it look like it's in motion. The build was just the right amount of challenge and has a lot of new ways to build. The play element is great and the Aloy minifig is a must have.
If you are a fan of Horizon Zero Dawn or Forbidden West i can guarantee this will be in your collection of sets. This set is 13" tall and goes very well with my other Horizon Collection. Definitely would recommend this set.
This was the first set I've ever tried to snag at midnight on release and I'm super glad I did.
The building techniques were great, the time spent was about 6 hours, and the detail is incredible. It makes for a great display piece. I only rated 4 stars playability because the lower legs aren't articulated, but considering this is more a display piece than a toy, it's fine.
I would LOVE to see more models of this quality. Give me a ClawStrider, a Thunderjaw, or a Stormbird. I'd buy it in a heartbeat if they were of this quality.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thanks for letting us know how much fun you had building your new set. We’re sorry it’s not quite how you’d like it, but your feedback will help us make improvements in future sets.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son and I worked on the Horizon Forbidden West Tallneck together. It was so much fun together. Over 1000 pieces, more than enough to keep us engaged. With each bag you assemble, the set looks amazing. This is a must-have!
It looks AMAZING. Glorious detail throughout the set. Extremely novel building methods, even for the base. Birch tree build technique is easily reusable elsewhere.
Only downsides are a bit fragile for posing or "play". Pretty complicated build.
