 same quality I grew up withMar 04, 2010
I purchased this for my 3 yr old daughter to go with another duplo set she already had and she has spent many hours building and playing with both sets. Pleased that Lego still has the same quality I grew up with.
Great set of duplo blocksFeb 25, 2010
Nothing fancy, but exactly what you'd expect. Tons of duplo bricks in all colors and sizes. My 2-year-old plays with them for hours, and his 6-year-old sister has tons of fun watching. She has now added legos to her birthday wish list after playing with the duplos. We bought this set to accompany one of the starter sets, knowing that they have fewer blocks but are great for storage.
Legos rock!Feb 15, 2010
Great product. Seemingly indestructible, even after the cat takes them for a spin around the kitchen floor in the middle of the night. Decent value all around.
Perfect First Set of DuplosFeb 14, 2010
We had a really difficult time finding a decent starter set of Duplo bricks. They just don't sell the simple sets in the stores anymore, which makes no sense because they are the BEST sets. So we ordered this set from Lego. For about half what they're asking here. I've noticed a trend of Lego having the fairest prices of all the stores selling their products. Odd. Anyway, for anything Lego, I would definitely do some comparison shopping using the company website first.
With this set, I was concerned beforehand that there might not be a wide enough variety of pieces, despite the generous number (80 pieces total). This was due in great part to the fact that I couldn't seem to find any photos of the side of the box where they give the detailed information and really this is the only information you're wanting before making a rather sizable Lego purchase, right? Since no one else has mentioned this, I'll show what a total geek I am by publishing these details.
Here's the breakdown of the pieces by size:
56 2x2 peg square pieces
20 2x4 peg rectangular pieces
2 2x4 peg pieces (1/2 thickness of regular pieces)
1 2x6 peg long rectangular piece
1 2x8 peg ex-long rectangular piece
And by color!
14 red
13 each of green and yellow
12 blue
8 each of light green and orange
5 each of black and white
2 transparent blue 2x2 peg pieces
The transparent pieces were an immediate source of tension between my two daughters; they both love them. The entire set is fantastic. It's just the right amount of pieces, and I didn't feel like Lego was as stingy with the rectangles as in the previous 'My First Lego Set' we'd bought. Or maybe it's just that we now finally have enough Legos to really build something! I do wish there had been a coupe more large rectangles, and mayeb a couple more transparent pieces, but that's not really a gripe.
I think if you're starting out with Duplos, there isn't a better set out there with the right amount of creative, open-ended pieces and affordability. We would have started with this one had it been sold in stores. Another point in its favor, at least as far as I'm concerned, is that it was not made in China or Mexico, but rather in Denmark, Hungary and the Czech Republic.
 fun, lasting and educational toy.Feb 14, 2010
My 2 year old daughter loves blocks and these are her favorites. Compared to other blocks they are a little expensive but are of great quality. As compared to other blocks, they occupy less space and are neat.
