5.0 out of 5 stars Great Collector Set!!!!, July 8, 2009

First off, yes, this is an expensive set, but it is totally worth it for the older child/adult collector! The set is rated for 16 and up and with good reason. There are no numbered bags in this kit, and with over 3,000 pieces, this makes finding the pieces a bit more challenging than the normal sets. The construction itself was not difficult (I am an adult)and the pieces in it are amazing. The jester heads and gold pieces alone make this set really fun. Add the power functions (this was my first power function set) and the music and it is unbelievable! The set is built so that when you turn on the motor and the carousel spins, the music will start by itself. The only thing I could think that might make this set better is if it had lights. My children have been turning it off and on and there have been no issues with the durability. Once built, you need to put a hard board under it before you attempt to move it as the base piece is not strong enough to support the weight while... Read more

This set is a great addition to even an expansive Lego collection. Movement, sound, unusual gold elements, and more! Yes, the set is challenging but with patience I believe even less-experienced builders will be successful.

TIPS FOR BUILDING:
1. Since the bags are not numbered, you need to spend a little time in the beginning sorting parts. It's not necessary to COMPLETELY sort them, but getting things separated by color alone would be helpful.
2. The carousel is built as a series of modules, where you construct the same item multiple times before assembling the section. If you have kids who can't build this set alone, they can still help by "copying" a module that you have correctly built. Many hands make quick work!
3. It is CRITICAL that the moving elements be assembled with the proper amount of ease between parts. The manual clearly reminds you not to "mash" certain pieces too tightly together. Violating this guidance will cause your moving pieces to... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars WE love it, July 24, 2010

This review is from: LEGO� Creator Carousel (10196) (Toy)
My 9 yr old son and I took on this 'project' this summer. The entire project took us about a week. We started with storting then assembly. Patience is the name of the game. My son loves lego's and all he really needed 'mom' for was to help sort and look for pieces.
We homeschool and a project like this is a great science/math project. We love lego... keep up the challenges...
