Funwhole Sheriff's-Office Lighting Building-Bricks Set - The Old West Sheriff's Office LED Light Construction Building Model Set 1240 Pcs for Adults and Teen

Built this over 3 sessions. Tons of fun, and looks really nice. The pieces are high quality in terms of durability, color and clutch power. Indistinguishable from Lego (and I've been building Lego for over 10 years). Really interesting design and super nice packaging and instruction booklet. Comes with tweezers and an LED kit, which is better than lego kits. I loved this so much, I bought 5 other sets from Funwhole. Amazing value for money! 5/5 stars!!!

For the record, I own and have built, far more real Lego sets and MOC's than most. I "used to be" a strong Lego purist. Recently, however, Funwhole has changed this whole dynamic. They are amazing! First of all, they do not "rip off" genuine Lego sets or published MOC's. Instead, they come up with their own sets and even specific parts. ...and these parts are of EXCELLENT quality, as good, or better, than Lego bricks. Furthermore their instructions are top-notch, printed with accurate, vibrant colors. And all of this is just the beginning! As opposed to Lego, that just provides shallow fronts to buildings, Funwhole's buildings are generally 3x as deep and enclosed on all sides, making them perfectly realistic. These outsides are incredibly well detailed and all feature hinged portions to reveal even more detailed interiors. Though I build them as static models, their playability for any child is without peer. And did I mention that all of their sets are lighted?!? ...and over HALF the price of Lego! So here it is in summary... With Funwhole, you get at least twice as many bricks, buildings 3x bigger (and enclosed), awesome playability and a FREE built in light kit for less than HALF the amount charged by the major brand. I am completely sold. One final note just to emphasize how great they are... they even provide a small metal screwdriver (for opening the battery box) AND a pair of metal tweezers to safely remove the lighting electrical connections without damaging the wires. Who does that?!?

I was skeptical about purchasing a set that was not LEGO brand, but LEGO stopped selling their western line (Lone Ranger) years ago and my 7 year old is really into the western world right now. I ordered this set (and the saloon and carriage sets) and I can say with 100% confidence that this is worth every penny. I would also say that it’s almost better quality than Lego brand. The instructions are easier to follow and I love that they often show side and aerial views so that you can ensure proper placement of bricks before moving on. I was intimidated by the wiring but it’s actually so easy to follow. Pieces aren’t falling off easily with play. While it says 16+, I definitely think this is a project that 10+ could enjoy (if they have some experience) along with guidance from an adult. Anytime there was an error or I thought it was missing a piece, it was my fault (used a wrong piece somewhere else, didn’t notice I tucked a bag off to the side, etc.) I will definitely be ordering more sets!!

I really love this set! With The Big L company not making any Western sets this definitely appealed to me. It's got an amazing design, looks great, has nice playability with the swing open back (yet still modular) and has some really interesting part usage. When I got it on sale it felt like a steal. I did have some hiccups with it being delivered at the wrong time and getting messed up badly, but the process to get it replaced was very fast and I was satisifed with the result. I also loved the amount of cool printed pieces like wanted posters and such, no stickers is always a good sign. The instructions were very clear, dare I say even better than the more famous brand with the way it often showed both a side and top down view of tricky part installations And used a red highlight to show where the parts were which was very helpful to someone like me who is colorblind and has trouble distinguishing some of the more similar colored pieces. My only minor complaints would be that I wish there was an adaptor to use usb or a corded connection to light it, I hate battery packs personally. I also had a very hard time putting together the hands and arms on the "minifigures" maybe having them come put together, at least the torsos (legs were fine to put together) would be beneficial.

Must buy for 12 year old boy. He is obsessed.
