I would say this was my favorite build ever. Besides loving the subject matter, it was satisfying and I marveled at how it came together --especially the amethyst geode. Truly beautiful. I also love that it can be displayed in many different ways and placed together or separately. I wish my dad were still alive to have joined me in the build. He would have loved this since we were rock hounds and collectors when I was growing up.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Fun tandem build or lap tray build

This set was a gift from my husband. I’m a geologist, and the only thing I love more than him and our cats are Legos and rocks. So this was perfect for me.
I specifically wanted to mention that this is a great set 2 or 3 people to build together. You can divvy up the minerals and booklets so that each person has their own build.
This would also be a great set for someone who is sick or hospitalized. Each mineral stand and each individual mineral has its own bag. So you can do this build one mineral at a time on a lap tray or over-bed table while confined to a bed or recliner. Some sets need a larger assembly space, so I like to point out when I find one that can be used by people with limited workspace.
My one caveat is that this set is a bit fragile. Once you’re done, make sure you put it somewhere where a young child or cat can’t fiddle with it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Super Easy and Fun

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was my very first Lego set to build and omg it was worth it. I loved how the sets were bagged individually and had extra pieces for each one. The directions were somewhat easy to follow. I built this set with my 8 year old son and we had it done in about 2 hrs, we took a few breaks.

Not a challenging build, nice looking kit. Instructions are bad. Colors are hard to understand. Use the digital instructions. Took 5 years from concept to kit. Slow.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I built it for my father, who is a geologist, and had a fun time having him look over the accurate and intricate details of each mineral. Very glad the stands were included.
What a pretty set to display in your home. What a unique Lego set. This set is striking and worth every penny. The detail used to make these minerals are genius. I knew I needed this once it was available.
