I agree with the other reviews - this set is so well engineered, and it takes a lot to impress me. It is fully functional - it won't even work unless a coin is inserted. I was blown away by this. Fascinating!
This is a fantastic, technically challenging build. The mechanism is really wonderful and that was the reason I wanted this set. Not so much for the mini figs, but for the vending machine itself. It's been advised in other reviews that attention to detail is a must or it won't work. I only found one stubborn smudge on the clear section, but everything else is great. Highly recommend!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I’m not a grandma yet, but when I saw this set I knew I needed it in case I ever get to be one. Having this made me excited for the day a little child will come into my home for a visit, run into my awaiting arms, and beg to turn that little knob for a fun surprise. One request from Lego, with much begging and pleasing, please oh please can I buy more pieces to make extra capsules? About the build: the inner working mechanics were the challenge. I feared if i missed one step or piece I’d have to start all over again, so i took my time and studied the steps. Before I moved past those critical steps and onto the simple outer parts I tested the machine. You should have seen my utter delight at it working properly! I clapped and giggled. My husband thought me adorable.
I love it. No problems building and it works great. I actually can't believe how well it looks and performs. Would like to order more plastic balls for it.
I would recommend this to a friend!
