Rotor Rescue Rules Skies and Seas!Jan 06, 2010
By Clark J. Wang
"Lego Cowboy USA"
This set is a great, fun-packed value, at a good price. The main model is a beautiful helicopter, with instructions included to build two alternate models, a speed boat or a cool biplane. All three models are superb. Instructions for a fourth model, a swamp fan boat, are available on line at [...]. Plus, you can create your own original models, just as with any LEGO set. This set is value added because multiple models can be made with the same pieces, as well as excellent play value with each of the finished models. This set could have been made even better by two things: As in the old LEGO Designer Sets, additional "ideas" could have been added, pictures of even more alternate models, but without building instructions; and some wheels. Both the helicopter and the biplane have no wheels and no actual landing gear at all. Mounting wheels on the bottom of the speed boat would have made the boat a much better play value model, also. Add some wheels from your own LEGO collection, and enhance these terrific models even more. But be clear, this is a really good set!

Best value ever!Oct 31, 2010
By W.P.

We are a Lego family. My kids like to play with Lego and I keep buying it. This set is so far the best value (bought at ~ $13). Usually my concern about buying a pre-designed set is that the kids don't want to take them apart after they are done. However, I felt that the whole point of construction toys is to have them imagine and build different things. Well, this set is different.
This item has 3 designs and they all look very attractive. My 6-year-old son who loves planes built the plane model first. I though he would keep it for months like he usually does with his other pieces. He is very attached to the Lego toys he built. He also liked the plane very much, but before the end of the day, he took it apart and built the boat! The next day he built the helicopter. It's amazing and all of them look really cool. The skill needed is just right for a 6-year-old, not too difficult nor easy. Some little pieces are very hard to take apart and I only had to help with that.

Nephew Loved ItApr 02, 2011
By Cindy Brock
"Amazon High-Ranking Product Reviewer"
Our nephew is a lego fanatic. Give him a 5000 lego kit and he'll be all set forever. While this only has 149 pieces, unlike most kids, he will build it, take it apart, build something else from another kit he has (which we probably gave him) and then come back to this one a few weeks/months. Plus, these 3-in-1 kits are great because you really do get a wonderful value for the money.
I was born in 1961 and I remember lego's being around forever. They were a great toy then and they still are today. I am sure they will continue to be a hit for generations to come.

Great ProductApr 11, 2010
By Mary D. Krenke
"jynxsmom"
My 6 year old grandson is a "Lego nut." He had asked for this and he is perfectly delighted with it. Gave only 4 stars in durability because the pieces can be broken if stepped on and they tend to be scattered all over the floor wherever he's playing with them. However Legos are pretty durable overall.
