The price for this set is pretty high for the number of pieces in the set, but it was a really fun build. It works great and sections were challenging to build. Overall it was a great building experience.

Best set of 2025

This was in my opinion the best set of 2025. The functions and mechanics of the set are fun to build and satisfying to use once built. It looks great and comes with tons of minifigs. My only complaint is I wish it came with another 2 to 4 minifigs. Otherwise, hats off to the designer and LEGO.

First of all, I like to say, this is an excellent Lego Product. The instruction manual was easy to follow, all the pieces were in each bag and the final build looks awesome. There were several technics parts for the delivery of the minfig balls, so, you had to pay close attention for those steps. Overall, this was an easy build. The only downside was I wish there were a few more minfig balls for this build. The price was a little high for 1343 pieces, but, it goes well with other vintage builds. This is not for a new builder and so would highly recommend this Lego set!

I'm a fan of any Lego set that requires gears and/or function. This is now tied for my favorite with the Pac-Man machine. The fact there were one to two mini figures to build in each bag really put this set above for me. I also made a mini of my daughter and snuck it in as a surprise.

This set made me smile before I even opened the box. It instantly reminded me of the gashapon machines in Japan—that irresistible combo of mystery, anticipation, and “just one more turn.” I was genuinely excited to build this one, and it did not disappoint.
The real magic here is the functionality. This thing doesn’t just look like a vending machine—it acts like one. The knob won’t turn unless a coin is inserted, which is such a delight

From a build perspective, it’s engaging and rewarding. LEGO really leaned into the engineering here, and it shows.
My one small wish? I would’ve loved the minifigures inside to be more in line with a collectible minifigure series—a little more unique, a little more “exclusive capsule energy.”

Overall, this set is playful, interactive, and pure joy. It’s part nostalgia, part toy, part display piece—and 100% a crowd-pleaser. If you like clever LEGO builds that do something, this one is absolutely worth the turn of the knob.

As Cute As It Looks on the Box

This was everything I expected. The build was fun, the little minifigures in the machine are adorable, the mechanics are fun, and it looks great being displayed. I do wish there were a few more balls for the price just to fill it up more, but other than that I loved it.

We bought this for our daughter's 9th birthday as her big present! We really hoped it would challenge her and it did! However, she still completed it within a day, lol! Very fun that she can continue to use it and play with it after the build and it is a great conversation piece! The price is high, but in the end, it was a great gift for our master Lego builder!
