Good construction toy

| If he likes construction toys, or Bob the Builder this is a great toy. It is durable, holds the lego pieces, and looks great, it is a great addition to Bob the Builder or by itself. I have even rated somewhat high for education, because my son who is four has learned all about construction vehicles, what they do and the correct names. |
A big hit

| I bought this toy as a gift for my 4-year old nephew. We bought him another lego Bob the Builder set last year, and it was a big hit. This year was a repeat. My nephew played with this toy for nearly all of Christmas day, while he ignored other gifts. Five stars! |
Excellent set for the money.

| At the moment, this is the starter set in the series, although they show an even smaller Dizzy set in the catalog but it's not yet available. You get Benny, a fence, an orange cone, a window and building piece. There isn't much to build after putting Benny together, but you can't expect much for the price. Little Benny has the front loader and rear scoop, so your child should love playing with him. The other plus about Benny is that he is small and stout and out of all the Bob Duplo characters, he withstands heavier play without his pieces popping off. The one downside is he is the only one (although Dizzy will probably be the other if it's ever released) that is not able to fit the little Bob character inside. All the other sets come with the Bob figure but this one. |
Too hard for a 2-year-old

| I generally agree with the other reviewers, but I'll add one thing. The box says that the age range for this toy is 2-5. However, the rod connectors are too hard to assemble for a child this young. Even as an adult, I have to be careful when I connect and disconnect those pieces, because I risk breaking them if I use a lot of force. Of course, all that means is that I have to help my children every now and then, but I think the other Bob The Builder LEGO sets are a better choice. |
Not so good

| This one is rather small and doesn't really look or feel like the rest. Not as durable feeling as the others. |
