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

While building this there was hidden easter eggs! Very enjoyable build. My kids loved it. I bought the more detailed Wolverine minifigure and Beast minifigure as well to complete the collection. Plus additional minifigures and one more Sentinel.
I would recommend this to a friend!

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.

Oh, my stars and garters! This school for gifted children is tiny, like the student’s gift better be shrinking, because Lego Xavier must not have the budget for adequate room and board. Even the training facilities are grossly inadequate. The danger room is more like a danger closet.
Lego Xavier’s budget cuts seem to have trickled down to the uniforms as well. Poor Wolverine looks like a cheap knock-off of the version in the last Marvel CMF series. And where are everyone’s pants? For the price of this thing one would expect some dual-molded legs, maybe some leg printing, but I guess I expected too much from a premium set.

Oh no! Sorry that everything wasn’t awesome with the X-Men: X-Mansion. We work hard to make sets that everyone can enjoy and your feedback helps us make them even better. We’ll share your comments with our design teams to help with future sets.

I enjoyed the build as it brought back so many memories of the cartoon. The details were amazing but I feel lost when completed inside the mansion.
I love the characters & for the exclusive Cerebro chamber I expanded the model.
Great set!

This set is a great homage to the X-men. It is amazingly detailed with many small references to the animated show from the 90s. The minifigures selection is great and they all look really well done. Gambit is my personal favorite. It would have been nice to get Cable with this set though. My only criticism is the mansion should have been a bit larger. Everything inside is a bit to crammed together and I think an two more room areas would have made it better.

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'm surprised this set isn't larger when there are others with 25% more pieces at a similar price point. If Charles Xavier can't fit into the house, that's...ironically funny but a clear problem. It feels like this set prioritizes form over function seeing that there's an expectation to position figures both inside and outside of the house—this is not unique to this set, either. Often, builders have multiple sets and can't realistically display the default "action pose" you see in the promo images. It would be nice if a combined arrangement was a minimum requirement LEGO enforced to keep all the pieces together for display.

I'm not really big into Legos. In fact, I've built maybe 3 sets my whole life. But I absolutely love X-Men, especially based off the 90s animated show.
And this didn't disappoint to me. Had a lot of fun put it together and reliving some old memories from my childhood. I really enjoyed it and will likely buy a couple more sets now to fill out a little Marvel neighborhood.
Highly recommend this set to beginners who are X-Men fans.
