We bought our son a mega pack containing 4 different Mega Blok sets from the disney cars range (including this set) for £30 last year from Tesco. This was excellent value as this Luigi set normally retails for approx £10 just by itself.

Although originally bought for our 4 year old son, our 8 year old daughter seemed to get just as much enjoyment from making up the set and then changing around the pieces to create different senarios. Actually thinking about it Daddy and I got in on the act too and played for hours with the kids using this and the other kits in the range.

The plastic blocks themselves are really well made and are easily fitted together by small hands so cause no frustration for the child (unlike some other cheaper blocks similar to these which are difficult to clip together).
The Luigi car which comes with the set is good too as the wheels actually work so the car can be wheeled and pushed around the scene made with the blocks.

Many a time I have lsitened to my son re-enacting the film using this set which I think is lovely to see and it really does encourage imaginative play.

I think by itself this set would be ok but the play value is definately enhanced by having two or three (or like us - even more) of these sets to use altogether.
