The F.A.Q. for Lego Simpsons 71006 Simpsons House (Toys And Games)

I got this set as a birthday gift for my 7 yr old son and he was definitely excited when he opened the present. The set is expensive, but i've always had good experience with the quality of lego products. The step by step instruction pics were easy enough for my kid to follow. There's a lot of pieces and i enjoyed helping him assemble it as much as he did. I wanted a set that was challenging and this took us a couple of weeks to complete. Of all the toys that i bought for my kids, lego seems to be the one toy that they always go back to. The only thing i hate is that there's there's little lego pieces throughout the house.

Best lego simpsons 71006 simpsons house (toys and games) in review

Grandson was kept busy putting it. Together. He is only 9 1/2 years old but. Very good with legeos. Was glad that he. Had something to keep him occupied.

The his set is huge. There are so many lives and the mini figures and true to life. The molded heads are different than other lego products but really bring the pieces to life.

As a hardcore simpsons fan who has been watching since the tracey ullman show days, i knew i would be getting this set. At 2, 523 pieces, it is the largest lego set that i own by a fairly significant margin. (the next largest one i own is the haunted house, which clocks in at 2, 064 pieces. ) i milked it for all it was worth; eschewing the numbered bags that are designed to make the build quicker and easier, i dumped them all into a bin, put on some classic simpsons episodes, and spent the next three days building this beast. (my estimate for the total build time is about fifteen hours. If that sounds too daunting, you could easily knock off a few if you used the numbered bags. I don't get to enjoy a massive build like this too often, so i wanted to string it out. ). . It's difficult to get the size of the set across in the photos; it really is quite large. Devoted simpsons fans will immediately notice that the interior layout is not 100% show-accurate; unfortunately, the realities of toy production mean that making the house larger and more accurate would have resulted in a set that was easily twice as expensive, and $200 is really pushing it as it is. All the most important rooms are present, though the scale can seem a bit small at times. The kitchen is particularly crowded. It must also be noted that the layout is not consistent on the show itself- note, for example, the magic door in the kitchen that leads to various places depending on the needs of the episode in question- so it's tough to hold any inaccuracies against this set. . Once you get past that, you can appreciate the amazing detail in the set. Things like the workbench and tool set in the garage, the dented fender on homer's car, the posters and comics scattered around bart's room, the vacuum cleaner tucked into an alcove behind the staircase, and the property of ned flanders labels on the various items homer has borrowed over the years propel a great set into truly legendary territory. . Most of the issues i have with the set are related to the minifigures that are included. Obviously, including the family is a no-brainer, and ned flanders is a similarly obvious inclusion. However, the family has a sleepy/stoned appearance that just makes them look odd, with the exception of maggie. (i have the collectible minifigure series maggie displayed inside my house; the one included with the house is identical, but has normal wide-open eyes. ) it's understandable that tlg felt the needed to differentiate these minifigs from the ones included in the cmf series, but one would think that such details as homer's tie and marge's apron were enough. As things are, anyone who buys this set and skips or cannot find the cmf versions will be stuck with less desirable versions of most of the family, and that's a bit of a bummer. Maggie is fine, as noted, and flanders is okily-dokily. . Another drawback is the absence of the family pets. (at least they are now available in the simpsons cmf series two, but it honestly kinda sucks that we have to buy another lisa and maggie to get santa's little helper and snowball ii. Lisa is a neat variant, but maggie is exactly the same. ) it should also be noted that the floors are completely covered with tiles, making it tough to get minifigs to stay in place. This can be easily fixed by simply popping off a tile so you can lock a minifig's feet in place, so it's not a big deal. On the contrary, the tiled floors look sharp, and i'm glad tlg made the decision to do them like that. . This set is definitely greater than the sum of its parts; its drawbacks are few, and its positives are innumerable. So, is it the greatest lego set ever produced? in my opinion, it is not, though it is a solid top ten, possibly even top five, contender. That said, putting aside all objectivity, it is my second-favorite set of all time. (for the record, my all-time favorite lego set remains the haunted house. ) it's a must-have for hardcore simpsons fans and lovers of great lego sets alike. I feel this is destined to become one of those holy grail sets in the years to come, so if you're interested, better get one while you can!

My kids loved it!

V. Nees, Oregon

If you love the simpsons and are looking for a fun diversion, you won't regret buying this. Haven't finished the build yet but it's already worth the price.

C. Anonymous, Texas says

I bought this as a christmas gift for my husband and he loved it. We still haven't finished putting it together but there's a lot of parts and labor involved. It is very accurate to the show and comes with the whole family. Instructions aren't always clear because they're just pictures and you may need to take a minute interpreting them. Overall great gift especially for simpsons lovers!

V. Patton, Greenwich

I bought this for my boyfriend for his 24th birthday. I have never seen a person so excited! the set brings together two of his favorite things: the simpsons and legos. It took us a whole weekend of casual lego assembling to finish the set. We did other things, too, but it was difficult to walk away from the pure joy of putting together legos. The set is really well designed. The roof can be removed as it is not physically connected to the house, and the house opens on a hinge so the whole interior is accessible. It makes it easier to play with. We were surprised by the attention to detail. The little things constructed out of tiny legos made the experience. The hammer, the fender bender on homer's car, the "property of ned flanders" stickers. It's a great set for simpson-lego hybrid fans.

This was such a cool lego set! it was really fun to put together as a family. On the con side, our set had a lot of missing pieces. Online store took care of issue 100%

P. Walsh, Westminster says

This is so awesome! we purchased this for our 11 year old daughter whom has been fighting cancer for the last three years. She had a bone marrow transplant and has been in the hospital more than she has been out. This is perfect for someone who enjoys a challenge and needs something they can do while in bed. I highly recommend this as a gift for a child that has to spend time in the hospital. The bonus is that once they have completed building the set, they can play with it for days. It includes the entire family and even their car! plus tons of small details that make it very playable and extra special

Z. Jarvis, Utah

I was hesitant to purchase because the price but i have enjoyed every minute of putting this together. There are so many minor details that are fun to put together. I am not a lego's collector and have not watched the simpsons for years, but to me, this was well worth the splurge. I have been taking my time and figure it will probably take me a total of 6 to 7 hours to complete.

Z. Finch, Kensington and Chelsea says

I grew up on the simpsons. Imagine how excited i got when i saw this set on online store. Actually online store is the first place i learned of lego's simpsons product line. Up to this set i only bothered to buy creator sets. . This fine set made a great addition to my collection of creator sets. Not to mention this set is full of bricks with high build-your-own creation value. Not that you'd want to take it back apart in the first place. The rooms are beautiful. . This is a faithful recreation of the simpsons house. I can't wait to have all of springfield.

N. Smith, Nova Scotia

Bought this for my brother, who is a huge simpsons fan, for christmas. He is in his 30's and his eyes grew as wide as a kids when he opened it! it's pricey, but worth it!
