LEGO Hidden Side Newbury Haunted High School 70425 Building Kit, School Playset for 9+ Year Old Boys and Girls, Interactive Augmented Reality Playset (1,474 Pieces)

Why did this item not come with an outer box? The lego box was crushed in the corner.. This is not acceptable, it’s a gift.

This lego set was quite interesting - ghost train with various characters and comes with a app that you could install on your mobile device - that could give it a pokemon like augmented reality fun twist. I have seen my daughter and her friends have lot of fun looking at the set from the ipad camera and role playing and giggling and having a blast. Theres intricate details in the train, as well as characters, but the app really puts in more flavor the overall experience of the set. Good innovation by Lego to keep up with the times.

My husband and daughter both love this! Super cool!

My daughter received it as a Christmas gift. A blast!

It was. a gift for a child and the whole family has had fun with it

Its Lego! Of course its awesome.

Very fun train to build. Comes with everything including great easy to understand instructions.I would expect nothing less from LEGO. The nice twist to this is the app to bring this thing to life. I do not want to spoil anything, but the augmented reality is a very nice/different touch. You can play with the set without the app so dont let that stop you from getting this nice train set. Any LEGO love would have a great time with this.

This Lego set is perfect for Harry Potter fans of any age. Whether theyre young enough to want to put it together, play with it, and then change it up, or they want to just put it together and display, its going to make them happy. It does have a lot of pieces, but my younger ones (7-8 yrs) can put it together without assistance. I would say younger, preschool-age kids would have some trouble doing it by themselves. The only drawback to this set is it only comes with enough track for the train to sit on. If you want it to actually move, youre going to need more track. I havent tried it, but Im told that the train will run on other tracks in the Lego world. Other than the lack of track, this set is everything I expect from Lego, and with my crew, we have seen a lot of those toys. The price is comparable to most Lego sets, maybe a bit pricier due to the theme, but if youre a Lego fan, you already know about the value.

I love skill building toys that require hands on concentration and patience. Also, the child feels in control and that is important for a youngsters confidence building in my opinion. This set has great craftsmanship and wonderful colors. You can download the app on your smartphone for more interactive play and that is a blast for adults or children. It makes it more realistic and exciting. Capture the animated ghosts on your phone! Figures are pretty sturdy and tracks are easy to put together. The technology part of this set will help inspire the imagination and keep the game interesting for years. It’s not a set they’ll grow bored with.

Love it.. . great christmas gift
