I bought this LEGO toy because we've had several MegaBlocks sets and they fall apart over and over again as you build them. I hoped LEGOs would be better, but they're not. When built, the fortress stands only 12 inches by 12 inches, so the scale is small and you can't really play with it, given the fact that one wrong move sends the whole thing crumbling. My son is 7 and an experienced LEGO user, but even he said, "Oh, man! This is as bad as MegaBlocks." This is going to end up in our LEGO box as spare parts, which is sad considering we paid $39.99 for it.

It's very durable and has a lot of interesting aspects to it. I disagree that it's unstable - it's more secure than some other sets he owns. Unlike the Scorpion Palace (which was a huge disappointment in many ways), the Scorpion Prison Cave is a fun set that has kept my son entertained for hours.

Lego is our favorite toymaker, but they really cut corners on this one. The structure looks great and has lots of features, but be careful not to blow on it, or it's coming down! Much too fragile to play with. Evidently they wanted to keep the piece-count down in order to reduce the price point. My son raided his other Lego sets in order to put in supporting pieces, and we stuck the whole thing on a green base plate; still, it's very fragile.

this is just a really fun lego set. also it is a great attachment to the knights kingdom sets i liked it a lot so I highly recomend this set. You may want take a look at the other knights kingdom sets.

If you think the Prison Cave is weak,then it means you don't have the intellectual abilities to follow the instructions the set comes with and actually build it right.And Lego's quality is FAR better than Megablocks,don't even try to say they are both bad.

The Prison Cave is actually quite sturdy,and big.Set includes:

-Lord Vladek minifigure (my favourite Knight's Kingdom minifigure so far)

-Sir Danju minifigure

-Sir Jayko minifigure

-Shadow Knight minifigure

-the classical skeleton minifigure

-Jayko's horse with saddle mounted catapult (a tad useless,but still nice and shoots far)

-a huge scorpion.Looks very cool if you put Vladek over it,like the commercial

-Main Prison tower,with gate and catapult

-a lateral part,where the skeleton in the box is

-an hanging cage.Lovely.

When built,this set is a lot of fun.Also,if you have also the Battle wagon,you cantake away the horse and put the scorpion instead! It looks awesome!

I recomend this set.

this set........if put together correctly..... can stand up perfectly...and when i blow on it...it stays up. i pushed on it with all my force...and amazingly it stood up. way overpriced....but..and a good play toy for a knights kingdom collector( me...somewhat) or just someone who wants to see a purple guy being eaten by a scorpion.
