This is 2nd set I've ordered that has missing pieces which means I can't continue till pieces arrive. Pieces take weeks to arrive for amount paid this should not happen. I feel Lego isn't what it use to be
This build was very fun and entertaining. My wife and I did this together and it was great to trade off bag after bag while watching this beautiful design come to life. The colors are fantastic and the minifigures are a perfect addition to this world along the beautiful seaside village. Bravisimo, LEGO!
So many neat and interesting building techniques were used in this build, from the cobblestone ground to the angles at which the buildings align. Comes with plenty of minifigures to fit the scene and is a great standalone piece especially if you do not want to buy a ton of individual sets.
I love building the fishing port similar to the one I grew up in - Redondo Beach, CA, USA (although not Italian). The gelato shop makes me wish I was living close to a real Italian gelato parlor. I was pleased the rocks in the setting were part of the buildings. I also like to look at the clear blue waters and rocks together. It is a pretty, irregular base, rather than a rectangular black box. I wish I had more settings like this from the ideas of the Creator! Again...Beautiful!
