Spent hours on it and quadruple checked all steps and somehow the sound block still would not get triggered. Tried troubleshooting for hours. Radio ended up crumbling apart mid workshop. What a hassle for mediocre sounds. Will not even be worrying about the sound when I rebuild.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This is one of the best sets I’ve ever done. But I had a problem with the build. I assembled it very carefully as I’ve done several complicated sets previously. However, at the end I could not get the sound brick to play. I called LEGO and while super friendly, they were not really able to solve the problem. I knew where the problem was located but the only way to get to it was to basically disassemble the entire thing. I did that, reassembled it and it still did not work. Calle LEGO again, and was told to try using the LEGO builder app. Again, very nice and helpful people! I took it apart for the second time, reassembled using the book and the builder app at the same time. Again it didn’t work. And weirdly, with the set turned to “off” the tuning needle moved across the whole channel. In the “on” position, it only moved about 1/2”. The 2 people I spoke with could not confirm if that was normal. Also, No one at LEGO mentioned that the tuning knob has to be turned with a lot of pressure. I watched a you tube video to find this out. Haven’t tried it yet as I’m not home. I’m hoping this solves the problem as I’m looking at taking it apart yet again. Neither person at LEGO had experience with building this set. If it doesn’t work, I’m at a loss as to what to do. Again, I think this is about the coolest set ever. I do highly recommend it. No one else seems to have a this problem. I’m persistent though. Will update if I figure it out.

I honestly loved building this set! The final product is such a great idea, and I love that it includes a phone holder so you can play music and make others think it’s real. 😊 That said, I do wish the back were a little steadier, but overall it’s a beautiful and creative piece!
