This large collection of lego bricks is to my mind the "classic collection". Children of all ages (and adults) can build ships, planes, houses -- whatever the mind imagines -- in a variety of colors. The bricks come in a nice sturdy plastic container for convenient storage.
While Lego has gone on to develop a wide range of other products, for those who want a good starter kit and bricks not specific to any particular image or character, this is a great product.
 Good set to expand your kid's collection January 10, 2007

This is a good set to expand an existing collection. We added the house builder's set and the large building mat, which worked out well. I do miss the old, old days when Lego sets were not all theme-related. A good basic set.
Good enough for my great-nephew July 18, 2008

Finally, I found a gift for my eight-year-old great-nephew that he completely loves! The big pile of legos you see in the sales picture actually comes in many separate packages encased in a big plastic box with lid. I didn't know the plates come separate, but luckily he had some from another, much smaller box of legos he already had on hand. (If this is your first Legos purchase, you need to get some plates, necessary for stabilizing the created structures.)
I dropped off the box at 8 in the morning. When I returned at 1 pm, he had made two incredible structures with two of the plates. They were creative and aesthetic. I had no idea what could be done with legos. The limit is one's imagination, and legos challenge that. The fact that these legos do not come in pre-packaged creations (Star Wars themed figures, for example) make this box require the use of the mind and imagination, dexterity and coordination. I was impressed with what my nephew could do and will do.
Legos of the non-structured form come highly recommended! Just don't forget plates!
Buy THIS product! It's what you've been looking for! May 18, 2007

This set of lego's surpassed what I was expecting! There is great building possibility and potential with this set. When you buy similar lego packages it states that you get ... say... 850 pieces. Most of those pieces are the little itty-bitty one (tiny 1/4" square) or two-piece (tiny 1/2" rectangle)lego's that are not that useful for building anything. This product has the bigger bricks so your child can actually BUILD something. I have searched and searched for a product like this and I could not even find it at the LEGO site! If you are looking for free play IE not buying a kit that only builds one thing, this is the one for you! This seller was great too. I had no problems and the order shipped quickly. Would buy from again.
