  The Artifacts

  Valerian70

  I would recommend this to a friend!

  Purchased for: Self

  I was so excited to receive this kit but I knew that it would be a hefty build so I was saving it up for my planned time off work. Lets face it, 2020 is a bust holiday wise so how better to spend your time than building? This build absolutely flew past. There is so much to see as you build and there are even little details in the build manual that explain what each artifact is that the Baron has on display. I loved all the throw backs to The Adventurers sets, I may have missed out on them but can dream of owning them I guess. The use of the Light Brick is fun and I love the way it makes a "hidden image" appear in the portrait. Try it, it's fun! The main draw of this is the lift ride and it is the the last thing you build (more or less). Clicking the chain together was a breeze (easier than 203 of the blooming things for the Roller Coaster) and installation went well. However, the first time I used it I hadn't secured the carriage in to the lift properly (don't make my mistake make sure you clip it in to place) so it went up fine but on the drop the carriage jolted loose and jammed in the shaft. This also tore one of the grey breaking plates (thank you Lego for giving me 3 in my kit). So, I had to take the tower apart to free the elevator and then to rethread the chain. Now works smoothly but, to be honest, this is on display on a high shelf so I can't really play with it. My favourite piece though is the organ. It just looks so cool built up and I can't believe how well it turned out - little mini masterpiece. For those that care - NO STICKERS! Everything is pre-printed so no nasty fiddly bits that never end up looking right. Number Of Pieces: 3231 Approximate Price Per Piece: £0.07 Build Time: 8.25 Hours

  Good build....until the lift!

  Purchased for: Self

  Excited to receive this as a VIP member but my excitement wained as I came to the lift...the chain is shockingly weak and snaps all the time...the lift is tight in the tower and doesnt go up very well,have had to manually push up and remove more than once!Bought the power pack for £75 thinking the motor would keep the chain intact but no,waste of money,chain still snapped and didnt get desired efffect. Rebuilt set incase it was my fault but same thing happened again. Have emailed Lego for answers,or happy to get advice by people who might have combated this issue.Great build,but the lift really lets it down,especially for the price of the set and power pack!

  Disappointed

  11111

  I was looking forward to this build as I have purchased all the Creator houses in the past, and although not in the same series was hoping for the same quality of build. However I feel the quality of this build is poor in comparison. The roof section above the entrance doesn't fit properly and doesn't line up with the other section of the roof leaving a gap. On another section of the roof there is what I can only call a kink or gap which means it does not have a straight line. The " gargoyles" that sit on the corners of the roof aren't provided all around the build. At the back by the braking mechanism there are exposed studs where in other builds there would have been plates to cover them. The last 2 points are cosmetic I know but for the money and comparing with other builds I was not happy. I have sent a complaint to Lego raising the issues.

  A fun build

  Spatch

  I would recommend this to a friend!

  This was a highly enjoyable build taking me somewhere between 8-10 hours to complete. It’s a somewhat complex build and the 18+ recommended age range is justified. That said, I would think any Lego enthusiast from ages 14+ would stand a good chance of successfully completing it. I purchased the optional PoweredUp components and can now control the elevator via the app on my iPhone. These components aren’t necessary as the elevator can be manually operated by way of a turn-crank on the back of the set but I would recommend owners of this set purchase the PoweredUp pieces as they add an additional level of enjoyment. But as noted, they aren’t necessary. The set contains ten mini figures which is generous. An additional nice touch was that in the instruction manual, each artifact included in the house has a humorous write-up describing the item. This set is a welcome addition to my collection and I would recommend it to other Lego aficionados out there.
