Customer Reviews for LEGO - Marvel X-Men The X-Mansion Building Set 76294

I was super excited when I saw this set get announced, and I bought it as soon as I could. I am a huge fan of X-men, having watched the movies and cartoons, even owning some of the comics. I love the amount of detail in the set, and building the set was one of the most enjoyable experiences I've had building Legos. Reading some of the other reviews, I know some complained about putting the stickers on, but I think that just makes the set more enjoyable it even comes with extra stickers, which I find nice. I do really like this set, but I do wish I came with Beast rather than Iceman, as he isn't in the cartoons or movies as often.
I would recommend this to a friend!

As many have stated before me, this is an extremely small set. My fears were initiated when I saw the three mini-base plates, and was further confirmed when I finished the first book. The exterior looks good. The Sentinel is an excellent model. The interior is horrible. It is way too small.
As usual with Lego these days, they take a 24(?) stud length base and the house uses about 1/2 of that length. The rest is the front yard and 4 studs in the back, because....why? This is a practice they have been using with the modular buildings for years now and it is frustrating in it's lack of optimizing the space.
So, while the Danger Room is two stories, the interior space is roughly 7 x 7, where with better use of the space provided could have easily expanded to 10 x 10 or larger.
The Easter eggs are neat, and there are some new building techniques that I'll use on my MOC's, but the experience of this build is generally not fun.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great idea, horrible execution for some of the other marvel Lego sets much more details involved, especially with the daily bugle avengers Tower and sanctum sanctum the X mansion is underwhelming the rooms are very tiny and small no ability to really look inside of them or display the highlights could have been bigger and cost more but would have paid it for better quality

Overpriced for the content and quality

Too expensive, even when compared with other Disney IP sets like Daily Bugle or Avengers Tower. Should have more minifigs, and the included minifigs should be better quality - the not-opaque-enough printing of faces, torsos, and legs has been going on for too long already, but is particularly offensive in these large, expensive, collector-targeted sets.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Finished building the X-man X-Mansion.
Kind of disappointed in the scale of the set, it’s smaller than expected especially for being a Mansion and the cost. Its more expensive than the Museum and has about 1000 pieces less. I have been building Lego for over 40 years and this is one of the first sets that I am really disappointed in.
For a comparison, I put the X-Mansion next to the museum, Sanctum Sanctorum & in my Lego city

I’m not one to write reviews but this is an exception for both good and bad reasons. Let’s start off with the good: the mansion itself is absolutely beautiful to look at. It has a lot of minute details that only fans would notice. The sentinel is also really cool. The figure selection isn’t bad either just couldn’t use a little more printing on the arms and legs for some. Now with the bad: the interior is small. It’s hard to fit characters in there much more actually try and pose them. That’s not really what I look for in these sets but I can be disappointing for those who do. Another thing is that while building one of the pieces necessary was almost snapped in half right out of the bag. This is the first time I’ve had a QC issue with Lego but it’s still disappointing. It hasn’t hindered the build process but could have if it was completely snapped. You can see the stress line on the 2x10 in the photos I uploaded. I’m willing to send to a Lego employee if they would want the proof. Other than that the process was fun and is a good display piece

I believe that the X-Mansion is actually a really great set. My only problem is that a couple more minifigures could have probably been included, but besides that, it’s great.
