REVIEW: 41748 Heartlake City Community Center

[Pchan1983]

Here is my review on LEGO Friends 41748 Heartlake City Community Center:

THE GOOD:

• Looks great and it is actually very tall.
• While the building experience is not difficult but lots of small details with refreshing take.  
• Some of the interior furnitures are great! (e.g. red couch, big gaming TV, sewing machine ... etc)
• Extra points for the big graffiti/artwork being printed.

THE NOT SO GOOD:

• Without discount, this set is very expensive even the overall quality is above and beyond.

Another excellent set from latest Friends wave.  I had a blast building this.  While the building experience is not difficult but there are lots of small details with some interesting ways to create the exterior design and lots of small furnitures.  I'm also surprised the number of stickers is very low.  So happy that big graffiti/artwork is printed.  Each floor with distinctive colours and themes, I particularly like some of the interior furnitures.  There are so many great chair builds in this, some of them won't fit normal minifigures but the look and overall building design are so good.  I also like the big gaming TV.  Due to its mordular designs, you don't necessarily need to have it set up with current arrangement. The minidolls are good even though I'm not a minidolls collectors but all of them come with great hair pieces which are minifigures compatible.  The only down side of this set is its price.  To be honest, if not because I managed to buy this 75% off (pricing glitch from a local shop and they honoured the price) I probably end up not buying this due to priorities and end up missing an excellent set.  And this set is compatible with the community kitchen set released at the same time which would put the price up even further. But, inthe end, I still recommend this set as it is really great as long as you can afford this.  I also regret that I didn't order more than 1 when the price was 75% off since I really want another one to build a full modular on this.  May be need 3 or 4 XD
