LEGO DUPLO Toy Story The Great Train Chase 5659 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a great supplementary DUPLO set if you already own one (or in my case.. two) basic set. Now, What do I mean by that?
Specialized set like this can be fun but sometimes limited. This set for example only has 39 pieces. It is natural to wonder whether you should get some other basic set that have more pieces. For example, LEGO® DUPLO® Building Set - 71 Pieces (5380) or LEGO® DUPLO® Deluxe Brick Box - 102 Pieces (5507) that contain more pieces for your kids to play with.
I say get both. The pieces contained in this set integrate well with a basic set. You will get three small characters (Woody, Buzz and Jessie --> Basic set will have only one or two), two cars (basic set only have one --> my sons love chaining them up now), some other interesting pieces (i.e. cactus, coach) and additional basic blocks. A basic set can feel a little bland sometimes and these additional pieces from the set somehow add some additional 'magic' to it.
So if it is on its own, I say it is probably four star (slightly expensive for small number of pieces). But if you already have other DUPLO basic set, it is definitely a five star. I bought these for my two boys (3 years old and 1 1/2 years old) and they certainly enjoyed playing with them.

LEGO Toy Story Woody's Round Up (7594) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We have all the Toy Story sets, except the 'giant' Zurg and Buzz, which we can't find (except on e Bay at JACKED UP prices!). As of today, Amazon is not carrying them and Toys R Us is sold out. My 7 year old loves these sets. They are great Lego quality.I know some people buy Lego sets to collect, but these are Toys at our house and are played with heavily since Christmas. Lego getting the Toy Story license was a nice idea, good business for Lego, good fun for Toy Story fans. It's a win win situation! (ha just had to say it)
If you can afford it, buy it!
I have to agree with the other review, as a reminder, if you're tempted to buy this for a younger child, this probably isn't suitable for anyone younger than 5-6 at the lowest unless closely working with an adult. Younger children WILL want to play with them, and unless you're completely sure there is no chance of these pieces being swallowed, I would use age-wise caution when purchasing.
Of course, all good Moms and Dads know this anyway!

LEGO Toy Story Construct a Buzz (7592) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We LOVE Legos! I have been waiting for the Toy Story Legos to come out for a while. We were very excited when we first saw them. I purchased this for my grandson and we had a great time building it, but it is really fragile. Buzz's helmet won't stay on and he is top heavy so he keeps bending over backwards and the waste. This frustrated my grandson. I would suggest buying it, but just to build and display.
