Review Highlights

“This Lego set is the coolest one I have ever built, but also one of the hardest. As soon as I saw that a house was upside down, I knew I had to get it not only as a fan of the show but also a Lego fan. The details put into both the normal house and the upside down house are amazing and really excited me. The figurines are awesome also, especially the Dustin one. It looks exactly like the actor.”
