This set is very appealing! It’s visually pleasant as well as fully functional! I really enjoyed this build and the uniqueness of the design. The fact that it’s fully functioning is the icing on the cake! This will be a great display piece for my classroom. My students will love it!
I would recommend this to a friend!

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.

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 🩵

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.

Great concept but needed to include more capsules

I was very excited for this one as I loved these machines as a kid when they were around at every store. I was disappointed that there are not enough capsules to visually make it look full. I would even have been happy if there was a separate set you can purchase to add more.

I normally used the paper booklet instructions but early on I found a picture difficult to understand as it looked like I was missing pieces. Once I went to the digital instructions and could rotate the image, I realized I had the pieces and how to connect them. I will now use the digital all the time!
The mechanism worked the first time and the little balls come out easily. After the grandkids get all the minifigures, I plan to fill the balls with candy or other small,items for future fun and continual usage.
I love this set because there is action vs just being looked at. It’s a mix of regular legos and technics type for the turning mechanism.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Love it but....

Super cool idea especial since you can put other little things in the balls. The only thing that I do not like is the minfigures. I think they could be better or your could have given a standard 10 but put 5 blind bags in so people would get different ones and adding some rare or special figures. Because it's in a bling bag in the box you don't have to worry about making sure all the pieces are in for those mini figures. Would have been a nice interesting twist to this product. Other than that as soon as I saw it I knew I was going to get it. Thats why I gave it a 4 instead of the 5.
