Highly Technical

The building experience is fantastic. Every step produces a new "wow" and the overall aesthetics is spot on to my childhood memories of putting a coin into the slot to get a prize. These are still in use today in all types of settings. I really like the ability to add to the set and change the minifigs.
I would recommend this to a friend!

When such joy could surround the gum ball machine. What a childhood memory I have of them. This was such a joy to build. From the mechanics of the working parts inside to the treasures that came out. Top notch.

I was skeptical mid-way through the process. The initial dispensing mechanism made sense with the balls rolling easily through the internal slide. However, the turning mechanism seemed to get stuck on a silly flap; I questioned its addition. However, I trusted the process and the Ideas designer; I have to admit that the turning mechanism worked very well by the time I completed the set.
The entire set was well designed - no missing parts.
My only (mild) criticism is that I would have preferred 12 different minifigures.

My 9 year old son loved putting this set together and finished it unassisted in less than a few days. He was so exciting he could not stop building. He really enjoys the mini figure machine mechanism and has loved putting each mini figure together as they come out of the dispenser. Great classic set! Much cooler than a gumball machine. He is looking forward to another Lego set to assemble.

I bought this for my 9 year old daughter who loves claw machines and vending machines. I considered this a bonus set because she can actually play with it after building without fear of breaking it. My daughter has only put together simple 3-in-1 sets before this so I was probably a little overzealous purchasing such an advanced set for her… BUT surprisingly she did 99% of this set by herself! The only part she had trouble with was the little gear part that holds the crank inside. It took her a week to build this so I was happy that she had a “project” she could work on that was a little more challenging. She surprised me and she was so happy with the final product! Such an intricate concept but the instructions were easy to follow. I loved watching her getting excited every time she finished another bag. I also loved that it came with 16 different minifigs and 16 balls to put them in. The only way to turn the knob is with a “coin” but don’t worry if you lose the coin you can always make new ones with a flat circle piece and a curved circle piece together!
I would recommend this to a friend!
