Ugh.
I just bought this set yesterday. If this is the future of LEGO, they will
continue to bleed capital at an alarming rate (IMNSHO).
The dino in this thing doesn't look so bad, I suppose..., *I* don't like it,
but maybe *someone* would...but it does not fit onto any other pieces! It is
all one piece...*no* building at all. It has holes in the feet, but they
won't even stick onto a stud on a 1x1!
Overall, the whole set feels cheap. If I didn't see it with my own eyes,
and see that it *has* a LEGO logo and LEGO stamped on some of the pieces, I
would *swear* it was a MegaBloks set.
On a scale of 1 to 10, this gets a 1. After all, it has a minifig, and it
has usable parts for other things, but that's about it.
Yuck.

Please log in for more thread options It's US only (check the lego site).
So maybe this can indecate that it's not "real" lego.
Because real lego would also be sold in Denmark.
http://shop.lego.com/product.asp?p=7473
Most Lego US only designs are not in the regular style (like the US only
technic car for example, un intended falls apart when you push it down to
use the springs).
And well, this is only a promo set of $3.99, go buy starwars minifigs for
the same price, they are a lot more fun.
