There are some great accessories in this set.(I think that the spiders are supposed to be the man-eating fire ants in the movie.) You build tow bazookas, but only one has the handle. The trees are able to fall down, but you have to hold them. To make the blades go 'round, you have to push(not too hard though)on the veachale. (If I spelled that wrong, I'm only nine.) The box holds jewels, tools, and the other bazooka. You can put the free-handed green suit guy in the chair in the back, but you have to lift off the top, then, once he is in there, you put it back on. Don't worry, he will fit. Make the best of it and have a good time!

I am a die hard lover of Lego and their products. Lego is the standard in the industry for quality toys. We have purchased and built dozens of Lego kits over the years. I have tried several MegaBlok models and each time I shake my head and wonder why they can't make plastic blocks as well as Lego does? The disappointment in this newest Lego kit is why I am writing this review.

I can only guess that Lego has outsourced the production of this item to some low cost supplier. On all the pieces you can see dimples where the plastic was separated from the mold. On some of the special pieces (engine exhaust)large pieces of plastic are dangling where the mold had a leak. On several of the smaller pieces my kids could not get the pieces together without my help. (this is a problem I have found on MegaBlock models which do not hold tight tolerances on their molds).

If Lego continues to let their quality slip down to the MegaBlock level, I will start to buy MegaBlock models at half the price.

Oh, and if you are not a quality nut like me, this is a great toy.

This review is on behalf of my 8 year old son:

The blades are so cool, because they rotate, when you push the cutter along. The hideout has really a really good trap. The button in the back of the jungle cutter, makes the top part of the vehicle explode.

The mini figures are cool. The hideout looks great.

Very nice product to add to your collection.

I lose the little pieces, and that makes me mad.

The Jungle CUtter is super cool though, the blades actually turn. I needed my mom, well I asked my dad, but I needed my mom to figure out how to put the tire treads together. She's good at that stuff. So the cutter is awesome you need the trees to cut something down but they're just okay.

I got four lego dudes with this and a motorcycle - cool!

It is good, educational, and fun for my kid.
My son enjoys it a lot.

As with most of the Indiana Jones Lego sets this set was very fun to build. It has a lot of playability once it is built too. I got a second copy of this set just for all the good parts it has to use for building other things. A very good value set.

I received this item in a timely manner. Box had never been opened and arrived undamaged. Contents were complete. Our son had been wanting this and the price was comparable to what it cost one year ago, when he originally wanted it - very excited to have received it at Christmas and constructed very soon afterwards.

Overall just as expected. They should have figured a way to put some gearing in because the wheels on the cutters which turn them (mounted on the outside) don't touch with enough pressure to consistently turn them or cut the trees. If you move the wheels to the inside they work great but unfortunately that runs the cutters backwards. Son still loves it though. This was the longest I ever waited for a ground delivery from Amazon, took a full 2 weeks to arrive but since its one of the last places to buy Indiana Jones Lego's so you'll have to live with it.

Recreate the movie with these great legos! The toy is pretty interesting and pretty cool with how it works. Lego company sure knows how to make things work! My little brother loved it. Recommended for lego builders. Simple to build! :)

This lego set is great. It does not fall apart easily... which we all know some Lego sets fall apart if you sneeze to hard. The blades move as the cutter moves....and it is all built from little lego pieces (even the black "band" around the wheels). My son is 8 and loves it so much... we had to tell my sister to get her son one for his 9th b.day. He loved it also. Top notch Lego set!
