User Ratings and Reviews
5 Stars An instant hit in this house
This little bus was in instant hit with my 2 1\2 year old.
I think the best feature is that the bus is all one piece, no worries for it falling apart while playing.
It is easy for little hands to get the people in and out of the bus on their own.
the little suitcases that open are VERY cute and love how they stow under the bus!!
Great job Duplo!
5 Stars Quality toy and fun!
My 2yr old son recieved this bus almost a year ago and still plays with it regularly. The open top allows for other non-Lego figures to go inside if a child desires. The two flap doors are fun to open and hide little toys inside besides the luggage. Both doors have been taken completely off many times and they have always popped right back in. The two figures that come with it are detailed and well made. Lego is a bit pricey but in this case the money really is buying quality…so maybe the price is right.
5 Stars Great For A Firetruck-loving Toddler!
I got this for my son for Christmas. Like all Duplo and Lego products, it lived up to its seal of quality. My son had fun putting the truck together in many different ways and I had fun making my own surreal creations with him, along with the other Duplo pieces in our possession.
There is a fire siren that can be placed on top of the fire truck. Unlike some kids toys, it is very quiet and not piercingly annoying. This makes it a plus for me.
5 Stars A great school bus
Each day my toddler watches the children going to school on the school bus. This is a great toy to help him learn about the things that are going on around him. Very durable so far.
4 Stars Another hit with my son
My 3.5 yr old received this as a gift for Christmas. He loves it. He loves to put the luggage in the storage area. I like that it comes with a chair and 3 figures. He can not open the luggage on his own, but I’m sure he’ll get it eventually. He only other complaint is that it doesn’t make a sound. We also have the Tanker Truck and he really likes that it makes the sound of gas flowing.
Be sure to compare prices with [...] before buying. I always keep an eye on the price and only buy when the price is comparable.

User Ratings and Reviews
5 Stars Star Wars figures
My son liked this one very much! Again, it’s great to be able to buy the figurines separately!
5 Stars Very pleased
My son is very pleased with his mini figure. There was a little mix up and at first we were sent the wrong figure, but the seller was very prompt and easy to work with and fixed the problem right away! We would definitely buy from this seller again.

Large LEGO Base plates

3 years & up. The best buildings are constructed with foundations… each of these durable building plates forms a solid base for all LEGO building bricks. Includes 1 gray 15″ x 15″ base plate, 2 green 10″ x 10″ base plates, and 1 blue 10″ x 10″ base plate.
User Ratings and Reviews
4 Stars Pretty basic
Not much to say about a base plate. These are good for what they’re meant for. My kids wish they would stack on top of other Legos, though, so they could be used as ceilings as well as floors. Oh well, they’re still versatile and allow Lego creations to be portable and stable, which is the point. Worth the purchase price.
5 Stars Good addition to regular building blocks
Certainly makes playing with Legos on carpet a lot easier! Wish I’d had these at age 5!
5 Stars lego base plates
I bought two of these packages and made a lego table for my nephews, they play with it all the time. it is amazing how much creativity it inspires in kids, green becomes a lawn or a park, blue the ocean or a lake, and grey for an airport, buildings, roads. The best thing is when used with a table as I did, it is t perfect child height. Large LEGO Base plates
3 Stars good valuie
good value for the number of plates. I agree with all of the reviewers that these are very flimsy, but there is no other comparable product to purchase.
5 Stars Lego Baseplates are great to use for building with Legos
My grandsons and I can build several items using these baseplates, and leave them as long as we’d like.

User Ratings and Reviews
5 Stars Pricey but love the pop off wings!
Bought this as a gift for my 8 year old son and he loves it. The pop off wings are very cool. The 3 minifigs are great and Indiana Jones comes with a small whip that we’ve lost already. Took a few hours to assemble and is holding together well.
4 Stars Lego fun
My son loves this set. He loves that the wings come off when you press a button. It didn’t take him long enough to put it together, though- not a huge set, but a good one.
4 Stars AWNSOME LEGO!
My son just loved it to the last piece. Some pieces are a little tricky to put together though.
5 Stars Grandson loves it (so does grandpa!)
Bought this as a Christmas gift for my grandson in Michigan. I really don’t know who had more fun him or my husband! He enjoyed getting down on the floor and “supervising” the construction of the airplane. It was great fun to watch too! The instructions are very well written and kids (and adults) love it.
5 Stars Lego’s AND Indiana Jones tons of fun!!!
Lego’s AND Indiana Jones tons of fun!!!
Got this for my 9 year old for Christmas and he loved it. I loved it because it was a GOLD BOX SPECIAL…Half price = AWESOME!!!!
Lego’s are the best toys around. Indiana Jones is a great tie-in product even if it means George Lucas gets many more millions of $$$.
