Editorial Review
This 71-piece set from the LEGO Adventure series gives kids everything they need to build a pontoon-mounted seaplane, a propeller-mounted riverboat, and any number of other hardy exploration vehicles. The 5-inch-long biplane boasts twin propellers and a 6-inch-plus wingspan. The rugged-looking, 1.75-inch-high pilot can flip up his goggles to scan the horizon with handheld binoculars. Should he spot trouble, a quick check of the compartment behind him reveals a revolver and a stick of dynamite. And if he spies treasure below, he'll be glad he packed his handheld pick and shovel.
