LEGO Ideas 21316 The Flintstones Building Kit (748 Pieces)

So my girlfriend and I grew up watching The Flintstones. When we saw this set we knew it was gonna be amazing. It has been amazing.. As soon as it came in the mail yesterday my girlfriend opened it started building and hasn't stopped since. Keep in mind this is a 48 year old woman. The peace and quiet has been incredible. All jokes aside, this set is really cool. Lego Barney Fred Wilma and Betty are super cool but seriously guys , where's Dino? As a key member of the flinstones I really feel like lego dropped the ball on this . Lego should ship everybody a little Dino to go along with this awesome Set A hammock would be nice as well

This LEGO Flintstones set is a lot of fun to build. I grew up watching the Flintstones, and it brought back some fond memories (and I got the theme song stuck in my head, of course). I love the tiger print curtains and the blue door. I love the shape of the building and how it really resembles the Flintstone's house. I love that the roof is angled and the edges are rounded. It is a really good stone house effect. I really like the use of color and texture in this set. The set includes Fred, Wilma, Barney, and Betty minifigures. If you're a fan of LEGO Ideas, of The Flintstones, of LEGO, or of cute stone-age LEGO toys, or you think you might be, then this is a great set for you. If you're wondering whether to get this set, Yabba-Dabba-Do!The pieces come in 6 numbered bags, with smaller bags inside the main bags. When you build it, the instructions will have you build using the pieces from the bags labeled "1", then once those bags are completed, continue with the pieces from the bags labeled "2", and so on. I've found that it's useful to open all of the bags for the particular number, but keep the pieces a little bit separate. The pieces aren't randomly distributed between bags - instead, all of the pieces of a particular type may be in one or two bags, so if you dump the bags out and keep the pieces slightly separate, once you've found which pile your piece is in, you may find the rest of them in that same pile or in that one and one other.The instruction book, with just over 180 pages, has nice imagery, clear instructions, and a QR code so you can read the building instructions from a tablet or other device using the LEGO Life app. Within the LEGO Life app, for this set, you can download a pdf version of the instructions, and access an alternate build idea for the set - more fun! The alternate build idea for this set is a Tropi-Copter. The alternate build includes photos of the build from multiple angles, but it is left to the builder to figure out how to build it from those pictures. Like other LEGO Ideas sets, the instruction booklet also contains information about the Fan Designer of the set, the LEGO Designers, and has fun facts about The Flintstones. For both the included instruction booklet and the pdf version, all text is provided in English, French, and Spanish. The instructions themselves, in usual LEGO style, are all pictures and symbols.The LEGO Ideas line is a great way that LEGO has created to engage with the LEGO fan community. Fans can design and build (physically or virtually) LEGO creations that they would like to see LEGO produce, and upload them to the LEGO Ideas site where other fans can vote on them. Designs that reach 10,000 fan votes get automatically put into a queue for consideration as a set that LEGO will produce. Several are selected, and then LEGO Designers design the set that LEGO will actually produce, ensuring things like structural stability and LEGO standards, refining it to be the best version of the set, while keeping true to the original design that fans voted for. Each year, LEGO puts out several new Ideas sets, and retires some previous sets.

This was one fun build. Made me remember so many good childhood memories. Great seller quick shipping! Thank you!

Great minifigs and set

This Lego is a present for someone, but I want one for myself. It is very cute. Price a little steep but I couldn't find another one like it. Wondering if this is a retired or limited edition Lego.

LOVE THIS!!!!

I got it delivered yesterday and I am going to enjoy this for a very long time thanks and it came on time and my experience on here was very good

My wife and I used to watch the Flintstones when we were kids. This was a perfect gift! It wasn't an "easy" to assemble set. Pretty challenging and had to start over once. One damn piece off and well you know. Anywho, great addition to any Lego collection or just a challenging puzzle to complete. Fun stuff.
