    perfect for every Disney and Lego fan

    It took me 9 hours to build it. With so many stones, fortunately the stones are divided into numbered bags for the bush steps. Otherwise it would have taken me ages to find the right stone in this mass.
    The details in the
    model are great. The construction tricks to build sloping walls and round towers are really cool. It's something different to build something really big :-))

    Top. Would buy again.

    Great set despite extremely bad PPP (Price Per Piece), which is mainly due to the fact that it is a licensed product and these are almost always more expensive than Lego house brands. It has been known for a long time that Disney is by nature one of the most expensive things you can treat yourself to in the world of bricks. The finished product, which takes about 7-13 hours to complete (depending on your Lego experience) looks absolutely bombastic and is full of detail and TONS of references to famous Disney fairy tales. Even if you're not a Disney fan, you're still looking at a great-looking castle full of lovingly decorated interiors that will look great in an amusement park or enchanted forest diorama..... or just in your living room if you don't have a Lego world. The price on Galaxus.ch is justified and within the average range.

    The downsides are in my eyes the stickers.... which are not justified for a 450 franc set. The... as already mentioned... not so great PPP and the fact that it is a "doll's house" instead of a closed building with stairs and such.... but this is not so important if you only display it from the front anyway.... However, realism fans like me will still be bothered by this. Furthermore, I have to mention that the 5 minifigures are great... and Tinkerbell now sells for around 30 Euros on Bricklink.... but there are still only 5 figures... and that's for a 450 franc set...., which is absolutely awfully little.

    All in all, despite the 4 negative points, highly recommended. Beautiful, impressive and great set.
