how do you figure what lego sets are worthy of buying?

I have 3 grandsons ages 8-13 who love anything Lego Star Wars. Since I have been buying these sets for years I let them pick out the ones they want and don't have yet. It takes the surprise out of gift giving but they get what they want!

Really it's just preference: How many pieces, size, design, etc. One of the biggest deciding factors for me is what minifigures the set comes with. Also you might want to check when the set gets retired. If it gets retired soon it will increase in price/value/availability pretty quickly afterwards. Also another big thing is if a set is currently kn sale. You can save a lot and get more Lego if you pay attention to sales. I hope this helped you out!

You should never glue LEGO. It destroys the value of the set, and essentially turns it into a poorly shaped, jagged, and more expensive version of some other toy you could get somewhere else.There are so many better ways to get a cruddy version of a train set... Just don't glue it!

They are normal, simple lego pieces. If he likes to just build, this would be a good set to either complement his other sets or just to build smaller items with his imagination.

I don't know, would have to look at the pieces but you might find an answer quicker with a search engine. I will say it is a very pretty set.

This question is from the end of 2012 (and I don't know why it would cost that much back then), but throughout most of 2015 so far Lego has been "sold out" of it and fewer and fewer stores online are carrying. I don't know yet if it is being discontinued yet, but that is the reason for the current cost of the set.

Yes all the sets are inter-changeable. I find the best value "price per piece" is with the specific sets, and the sets come with interesting unique pieces.

I cannot say for sure. I bought these figures for my 7 year old nephew (who loves both legos and Dr. Who), so I don't have access to them to check. He also got the set of weeping angels and the Amy Ponds figure. They were all really cool & he loved them.

No, Lego's are completely different. You can look at these minecraft toys in any Target, Walmart and Toys R Us. They are less expensive there too.

I can't find any completer pieces either. I'm thinking I'll have to find some solid-color pieces that match the colors in my set.

You should like it as long as you like Legos. I have 30 and 40 year old friends that still buy really large sets for themselves - not their kids! The RC control works well and my kids builds obstacles for it to cross. They also chase the dog with it. It was a good purchase for us.

It works with all Lego sets. It's great to build upon, or in connecting buildings to create more of a block/city feel.

a 30pc set wasn't enough for what my kids wanted to build so we added the 62pc set, its a good place to start and see if theyre interested though since theyre so expensive

It depends, It's a set mostly for display, not as much for play. I might go with the X Wing model 9493 for that young of a child because it is designed to be played with after the build.

I purchased the set as is from Amazon. Contacting the seller might be a better source for the information you seek.

It is recommended to buy Lego flagship or EV3, very regret I bought two OWI 14-in-1 Solar Robot, the first choice of Lego toys

I firmly believe that most lego technic worth their money. Not all, but most. I believe that this one is among the ones that do.

I would probably choose another set. Some just a little simpler. This set has pieces that can be a little complex.
