My son plays goalie for a hockey team and basically breaths hockey. This is so much fun to play. You can really get the pucks flying. I love that the "ice" is not made of legos and therefore does not fall apart all the time. I love to play it with my son. I only gave the one star of educational because it is not a "learning" toy. I guess you can learn eye hand corodination but this is more of a FUN FUN FUN toy.

First off let me say I love Legos (I am 38 years young) but I was a little disappointed by this set. The building skill level was ok but the Hockey Rink was a major bummer. I would think that Lego could have come up with something a little better than a heavy gauge plastic ice rink that comes folded over (you have to fight the creases in the plastic when playing). I would have liked to see a flooring system similar to the Basketball or Soccer sets (Lego plates or tiles). I would not recommend buying this set if you want to play with it (by the individual kits and a piece of plexi glass) but for building the hokey players its ok.

My son got this for Christmas last year and what a cheat piece of crap! My son loves hockey and legos so we thought what a great combination. This set is NOT worth the money!!! The players are fine it is the rink that makes this set a waste of money. My kitchen floor works better. The plastic rink will not lay flat as the creases from being folded don't flatten out and over time our stickers keep peeling off. Lego need to go back to the drawing board and come up with an ice rink to be built out of legos which is what I expected to begin with.

My 9 & 6 year-old sons received this set for Christmas. They played with it for about 10 minutes. It is now under the bed. We are huge LEGO fans, but we are very disappointed with this set. The boys find it boring. It is also hard to store once set up.

I bought this for my son who is a hockey nut. Although I was leary about the age label on it (7 and older), my three and 1/3 year old has played with it non-stop! He has not had any problems with it, and he plays with it all the time. He has learned how to put it back together if it comes apart, and he plays hard with it. The puck really sails across the ice. *****

What a waste! My son loves hockey & wanted this so bad but when we opened it we couldn't believe how cheesy this was. The rink is a folded piece of flimsy plastic. You're better off to just but the players separately like we did. Very disappointing and overpriced.

My son (11 yo) loves Legos... he also loves hockey. I didn't think Legos could make a good game of hockey, but I was wrong. This set happens to be the game that beat out the Xbox on Christmas morning.

We had a great time setting everything up, and then the fun REALLY started as we played two-on-two hockey with some blocky looking robot-like players.

Nevermind that it's not really like skating, and that they can't really shoot hard when pushing down their heads... the fun came from developing our own set of "rules" as to how to play the game (don't be surprised if you start playing with the players like the old rod hockey games... spinning them by the head).

Great creative toy... my son's now working on making his Bionicles play hockey.

A side note. While most of the players don't hit a very solid shot, the Slap Shot player -- just like his namesake -- fires a BLISTERING shot. We may be drafting a couple of those to see how our game evolves...

There is a blue truck next to that item, which I selected and it says no shipping charges for this item if you have $75 or more of other iems which I did! ten it says that you will have to ship this item separatly from the others and that you will be charging. This is not right and I alert anyone planning to order this season to watch out for the blue truck it is deceiving.
