Went back today and got another Light Tower set and another Grandstand set so
that should give you some indication of what I think of these sets! Had lots of
fun putting the sets together and then playing a game of soccer. The cat was
very interested and was initially allowed to play, however when she put one of
the players in her mouth, she was banned from any further participation.
There are no new elements, and the price is not too bad. There is a hint of
'juniorisation' with some large pieces being used in the construction of the
seating in the various grandstands.
The bus is quite good (3406). The scale is larger than normal Town vehicles but
it is nice to be able to get six mini figures inside! Need to find the other
team buses now.
With all the sets I bought, I now have 15 soccer balls. One of the balls from
the large set (3409) is blue and white with Adidas markings.
If you want a decent sized pitch, I would suggest buying two of the large set
rather than buying up several packs of the Expansion set. The baseplates in the
Expansion set are only half the size of the baseplates in the large set.
