Building experience:

This is a set with 99 parts, for which a third or more of the parts go into the figures. For those looking for a richer building experience, this is not for them, but I cannot count that as a fault, seeing as that is not the goal of the set.

Parts:

Despite there being very few of them, there are many dark red parts which are relatively more difficult to come by. That, paired with the printed parts, makes the part selection quite fun, though nothing out of the ordinary.

Playability:

A set this small doesn't really need a play feature to justify its value, so the lava drop feature is very surprising and more than welcome. Its simple, effective and I am certain it will make children want to play with the structure itself more.

value:

4 figures and a build with a feature, all for 10 dollars. This is what pitch-perfect value looks like. When hearing people talk about how much more expensive Lego is today, sets like these should come as a good reminder that that statement only applies when looking at Lego from a very narrow window. This set's value is incredibly perfect, and i couldn't ask for anything else.
