REVIEW: 60394 ATV and Otter Habitat

[Pchan1983]

Here is my review on 2023 LEGO City 60394 ATV and Otter Habitat:

THE GOOD:

• Not one but 2 Otters.
• Small habitat but looks good with fun sliding feature.
• Very competitive pricing.

THE NOT SO GOOD:

• The tree falls apart easily.

I had my eyes on this set when it was first leaked and it does not disappoint!  The habitat build is great, small but detailed enough.  They even integrated a play feature with otter sliding.  Although the tree is quite easy to fall part.  The fact they included not just 1 but 2 otters made this more fun.  The ATV is ok, not bad nor good but I do wish they had the movable chasis introduced in other small ATV builds.  The other highlight on this set is really the pricing.  Pretty much the lowest price point and you often get discount on this, paying NZD $13 for 2 otters is a very good deal considering once otter is available on Pick a Brick it will probably cost more than half price of this set.  anyway, this is a recommendation from me with great elements and very generous pricing!  Wish LEGO do these type of sets more!

Great review, my only grudge is that this set I can’t find anywhere

I haven’t seen this at Walmart, not even a price tag, I saw it at the Lego store and Barnes and noble, so I’ll let you make what you will

Slight discount from Walmart. Otherwise only from Lego like Pchan1983 said. Initially I didn't care for this set, but since seeing more images it has grown on me. Not a bad starter set that could lead to bigger outdoor and Sci-fi MOCs.
