Here’s What An Amazon Reviewer Had to Say About LEGO Superheroes Shield Helicarrier
Jack Enzo TOP 100 REVIEWER
…Is it worth $349. You better believe it is!…
As a Lego enthusiast, this ranks at the top, as one of my all time favorite builds (only behind 8043). Building this set forced me to grab up all my marvel mini figures and load them up onto this beast of a Carrier. This build was smooth and I really only encountered one problem during the build and that came with the installation of the rear lights. I think they are supposed to be angled but am not really sure as the pivot bar underneath is a bit tricky ( I had to reach under and “Snap” one into place as I had not done so earlier. If you pivot the lights straight they start knocking stuff off from underneath.
The application of the main Helicarrier sticker is something I would change. Lego recommends, in their instructions, you first apply the Helicarrier plate then the sticker. If your a perfectionist, like me, you’ll want to first apply the sticker then the plate. Another recommendation I would make is to constantly spin the thrusters to ensure they are working. Make sure the pins are fully seated to get the best performance.
Also, when you are snapping in the thrusters be sure NOT TO GRAB THE INNER RAILS for leverage or you will be going back several pages for a repair as almost happened to me. Bag 12 may have been the most fun as that’s where are the goodies are: Micro Figures/planes/micro fork lift/boxes/cart etc. Not a big fan of the micro figures but OK they make sense. If you are a mini figure nut the Avenger base set is a must. Other than that have fun and if you can get an extra as an investment because this one is gonna be sought after for a long time to come.
