Really happy I made this purchase. So much for to put together. 16 minifigures are great. Really like that the designer is represented with a minifigure.
Brings back memories of kids asking for quarters to play the machine in stores. Great idea. Looks so nice displayed.

The vending machine is amazing! More so that it actually works! Im thrilled! You do need to pay close attention to instructions, parts & placement when building. Anyone going for speed, you'll likely have a non functioning set in the end & need to start over. Its perfect! We'll worth it!

Ideas Theme Home Run!

This set is absolutely one of the most innovative production sets created. This is what makes the Ideas theme so special. Everything from the build experience to the quality feel and functionality coupled with minifigure prizes is a great overall package! Whether you want it for the build experience, the look and feel or the minifigures themselves this set is a worthy display piece and conversation starter. You could put candy in the balls, raffle tickets, or even money! Ideas sets rarely go on sale and this is a set every collector and then some should grab.

I mainly bought this for the figures. Turns out, it was very fun to build. The machine is actually fully functional. The design is spot on...you would think it's an actual gumball machine...not made from Legos. I don't regret buying this and I highly recommend it to anyone who likes gumball machines or collects minifigures.

This is one of the most amazing LEGO sets I’ve ever assembled. The design is beautiful, the winding mechanism actually functions. It won’t turn without a coin! The build is straight forward. The mechanism is no more complicated than some of the transmissions in the LEGO Technic automobiles. I’ve cycled all 16 balls through the model more than once without a single jam or failure. It works very smoothly. This is a model that will be on permanent display. I’ll fill the balls with Christmas candy, Easter candy, etc. The mini figure of the designer is a nice touch. Definitely recommend.

From the minute i saw this i knew i had to buy it as soon as it came out and that’s exactly what i did. i ignored all the reviews on youtube about the price being way too high because i simply don’t care about the price when it comes to legos. This set is the best set i’ve ever built and owned and i really hope lego makes more functional sets like this because i will buy them all. i 100% recommend picking this up. worth it.

A fun engineering build

The build itself was fun and fascinating seeing how each part of the mechanism as it was built was going to work. The finished product is awesome! I loved that the first piece built was a little vending machine and the designer in Lego form 🩵
