 | | Set 7075 JacStone Pirate Ship
|
|
Well, I've waited some months, but finally this ship was on deep discount. First: it IS a JacStone set, so as expected, there are ugly figs and lots of big pieces. It's intended for 4-year old kids, and indeed there is hardly anything in it that is (...) (20 years ago, 12-Oct-04, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.pirates, lugnet.year.2004)

My impression is that the 2004 sets have improved architecture: between Harry Potter and Spider-man there are much better looking, less juniorized buildings this year. At least, there is more ornament. There's the laid-on plate roof of the castle, (...) (21 years ago, 16-Apr-04, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.castle, lugnet.year.2004)

(...) It's possible, but it seems oddly unnecessary. The CPSA prohibits small pieces in toys intended for children under 3, but the most recent renaming of the old Jack Stone line to "LEGO 4+" is about as clear a message as you can get that it's not (...)

(...) Swallowing risk? Movable is not the same as removable... Maybe they think they've made the arms in a way that they can't be pulled off by even a very determined toddler, but didn't see how to prevent the helmet from being swallowed, so it's (...)

| | Jack Stone Spiderman characters can move hands!
|
|
I just bought the Jack Stone Spiderman set and lo and behold, the hands can move like a minifig's. I don't know if this will be a permanent change to the Jack Stone line or not. There are also a couple of "fleshies" in the set, although one of the (...) (21 years ago, 10-Apr-04, to lugnet.year.2004, FTX)
