 Lego -- always a good buy Jul 03, 2008
By C. Burton
I purchased this for my son's 6th birthday. Before it arrived, I was a *little* nervous that it was going to be a little too much for him. But his year-or-so of experience with Bionicles gave him the understanding he needed to build all three of the designs in this box. He required only a little guidance or correction to succeed. And the motor and remote control made this kit especially rewarding when he could see what he put together scurry around the room wirelessly.
The only cons that I see, and this would go for all Lego products today, is that they are much more 'constrained' in design than when I was a kid. Back then, one had to use his imagination to plan, build and enjoy. Today, the pieces go together one way and many kids (I assume) stop there. It takes some encouraging to get ours to "think outside the box".

Terrific advanced set! Mar 23, 2008
By Elizabeth R. Steere
Compared to the rest of the Creator range, this set is more complicated, and considerably less forgiving of minor errors. It doesn't much matter if a brick in your Model Town House is one peg off spec, but an error in this Dino will either render it inoperable or cause it to fall flat on its snout.
Once finished, this set is awesome! It amuses small children for hours, and completely freaks out pets. The core of the model is a very sturdy torso-and-legs structure which looks hilariously like a headless chicken. The dinosaur tail, head etc are essentially just cosmetic additions. Small children and small nervous dogs can tear off bits of the dinosaur shell, and the underlying chicken will keep right on going, rather like a Lego Terminator.

It's a great remote control dino set! Dec 29, 2008
By D. Johnson
"BlueV"
We bought this dino for the whole family.
1.This is a great remote control LEGO dino.
2.It's a lot of fun to put every piece together to build a remote control dino with your own hands.
3.The trick to have it functionally working good is: Remember NOT to put them together too tight, especially the engine parts, just loosen them up a little bit. If you put them together too tight, the dino can not move.
4.The dino can roar with its mouth open and closed, and also the dino can walk back and forth, the dino walks pretty fast, seriously this dino even walks more even and faster than the remote control one piece toy dino we got.
5.The horns on the back shines in the dark.
6.This set also can form a crocodile instead of a dino, but the dino is more complicated.
This is one of our favorite LEGO sets.
 Great LEGO set. Sep 14, 2011
It's a great LEGO set. Had plenty of fun building the dinosaur and alligator forms (didn't try the spider form yet)!
It looks pretty awesome once built. My only problem with it is the fact you can't really make, at least, the dinosaur and alligator form steer - It always walks or runs straight. But still had quite a bit of fun making it roar and walk around.
Recommended.
Best Mom Ever!!! Nov 17, 2008

I bought this for my son's 10th birthday. It's great. I wanted to put it together, I told him it might be complicated, but that's just because it looked like fun. He let me start it with him, and then he fooled me and got up at 4am to finish. It's absolutely great. But one thing, when you put in the batteries, they go in on both sides. We didn't pay attention to that part and couldn't figure out why it wouldn't work, and we had to take it apart and that's when we realized our mistake. It's a great toy and my son loves it. It's the only thing he's not changed, out of all his lego sets. It's a lot of fun.
