Nice Diorama; Less than Nice Build
on September 2, 2024
Posted by: Sean208
I have put a few Lego sets together. My first build experience was the Home Alone house. I loved it, took pictures throughout the build, and clocked my time working on the set. It was neat to see the references and how things came together. Ultimately, this has been my experience on every build I have completed so far. From wildflowers, to Jurassic Park vehicles, to the Hocus Pocus house, I have looked forward to my builds.
However, this set did a couple of things that no other set has. It made me consider returning the set and forced me to use super glue to have a few pieces stay together long enough to get to the next step. Putting the bow of the ship together required me to super glue some of the support pieces together - allowing them to stay together as I turned the build upside down and attempted to add the additional pieces to complete the current step. While the directions were adequate in showing how to build this section, the pieces did not supply enough support in order to keep the structure together while moving on to the next step.
Overall this build is fragile. Pieces fall off from picking it up and moving it around. The strings on the boat fall off of the wheels constantly, and pieces of the shark's tail are held on with only a peg or two. While I determine the final home for this display, I have left the piece right where I completed it - afraid to move it more than I need. This is sad because every other set I have completed feels indestructible. I feel that if I were to drop the Home Alone house, there would be minimal repairs needed. However, if I look at the Jaws set wrongly, I need to get out the instruction booklet again in order to repair the damage.
Finally, while this set has more than one way of displaying it, either way results in unused pieces. If you choose to display the shark on his display base, it sort of renders the whole ocean diorama useless. On the contrary, if you display the shark and the boat on the ocean display base, then you are left with half a shark just sitting there.
While I am happy that I purchased this set, I feel that there are many things that could have been changed or tweaked to add strength to the build. I am a fan of Jaws, but building this set reminded me of Jaws 3. It was a Jaws movie, but just not the best one!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Faulty Bow
on September 15, 2024
Posted by: FreckledPants074
The build for the bow is terrible. Any amount of light pressure to add another brick unhinges the small blue pieces inside of the bow. The bottom pieces of the bow also don’t make sense. The Orca only sits in the set - it doesn’t attach? Very disappointed in this set.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I agree with many of the reviews about the shoddy design of the bow, and how easy it comes apart with the slightest movement.

Disappointed by a set for the first time

I fell into LEGO fast and hard over the last 20 months- having gone from zero sets to 30 in that time period.
Each has provided me with an immense amount of joy (despite occasional moments of frustration when running into a provierbial “brick wall”). This is the first set that I was truly disappointed by.
The idea is fun and campy, but the execution is poor. I found several of the elements to not really fit well together or that the small pieces got in the way.
And then add the whole aspect of compiling the boat on the ocean foundation at a weird angle and then questionable decision of building the whole shark only to rip him in half (is there a thoughtful way to display the literal “tail end” of a demonic sea monster?) just didn’t seemed well thought out.
It suffered because I’ve come to know Lego as a maker of wonderfully whimsically and thoughtfully designed sets. Unfortunately this one sunk to the bottom of the ocean.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Looks great when finished with lots of nice details included. Overall it is a decent build, but the bow is really touchy when building it and I feel it should have had a few more points of attachment.
