We bought this for our 8 year old daughter. It requires a good deal of time to put together and will require Mom or Dad's help (in our case, both). This made the toy a good family activity and we were able to put it together sitting in the middle of the living room floor over the course of several nights. The lego mechanics used are neat and thought provoking. My daughter has enjoyed playing with the legos and uses her imagination to rearrange them to build different items around the temple. I would recommend a plastic storage box for the temple and its associated pieces, otherwise you will be finding them with your feet and vacuum cleaner. Do count on further family activities as you engage in Avatar vs. Fire Nation battles with your child. I only gave four stars because of the complexity of the directions. An older child (about 10) would be able to assemble this alone, but may not get as much enjoyment out of it. It is definitely a family fun activity that any Avatar fan will enjoy.

As usual, Lego doesn't disappoint! My 9 year old was thrilled with this gift. Reasonable price for this Lego product.

The Air temple is a great Lego set with lots of potential for play beyond just assembly. No misrepresentation on Lego's part as the product description is accuurate, but be aware that a young Avatar fan may be disappointed that there's no Katara minifig in this set. She's a major character in the series so this is a great source of distress for my son.

This set is consistent with the quality of other Lego sets we've had. Good: clever design, challenging, super-durable individual pieces, aesthetically nifty. Bad: fragile once constructed, requires super fine motor dexterity to put and KEEP together, lots of adult support needed for the under 10 or easily frustrated crowd.

I agree with other Lego reviews in general that the difficulty level of the Lego sets frequently exceeds the target age of interest in the lisenced characters. My son is a huge Avatar fan, but he is only 5, so I bought it knowing that I would be doing most of the work. The age range on the box is 7-12. Could a 7YO really put this together? Are 12YOs interested in Avatar? Are Danish children just really gifted in spatial reasoning? I don't know. It works for us, though, cause I love Legos. He picks them out and "we" put them together. I'm 39 and in my day girls didn't get Lego sets so this is just way fun for me.

I paid about 60 USD for my LEGO Avatar Air Temple.

The LEGO figures are some of the best for a series. (Comparible in quality to the great STAR WARS and INDIANA JONES LEGO series quality).

This set includes Aang, Soka, & Momo along with some Firebending Bad guys.

The temple is fun to build and very playable. (ie., won't quickly fall apart when you are playing with the figures on it.)

Our family enjoyed this set a lot and appreciated the attention to detail and re-playability of the set.

My husband and I bought this as a Christmas gift for our son, who is a big fan of Avatar, despite many reviews indicating that it was difficult to put together. My 9 year old son put it together all on his own - it did take him a while, but by following the instructions he was able to do it. It gave him a great sense of accomplishment, and kept him busy for a couple of days over the Christmas break - at least it was time spent on quality play instead of at the computer or in front of the TV. The only disappointment was that the set did not include one of the main female characters, Katara. In any case, I would highly recommend this for any Avatar fans.
