LEGO Creator 31039 Blue Power Jet Building Kit

My nine-year old son is an intermittent LEGO fan. That's why I never give them away. He chose the Blue Power Jet to coincide with his current love of military jets. With an instruction book that has the thickness of a catalog, he was able to put it together in total of twelve hours. He tells me the hardest part with the construction phase was 1) pulling a small LEGO brick off if he made a mistake. It does come with a brick separator but it only works for larger pieces. 2). He found that the after burner was difficult to attach to the main body. It took him seven tries to attach it. After the jet was assembled, he also noticed the fuselage was the most brittle (his own words). When he makes hard turns right or left soaring through the air, one part of the fuselage frequently falls off. His favorite parts are the retractable landing gear and speed brakes that actually open up. He likes to add missiles from other LEGO projects to it. His imagination is endless with this jet. There are instructions for the helicopter and hover craft, but my son informs me that the jet is permanent. I was very happy to give this to him as a gift.

At $57, it was the most expensive and biggest Lego set I ever bought, but also was the BEST Lego set I ever bought. Whoever designed this is a grand master Lego designer and deserves a raise/promotion/bonus. The build technique is far more advanced than I could dream of. I never owned these parts before and they do a great job of making the jet look great. Just looking at it makes me smile. I'm glad it seems to be able to fit two mini figures in the cockpit. Too bad it didn't come with any mini figures. The top opens to show the insides a bit and maybe an airbrake. The flaps and horizontal stabilizers move. Wheels come down or tuck back in. I never would have been able to think this up from scratch even if I had access to all these great parts in the necessary colors. I would definitely buy more Lego sets if they were just like this 31039 Blue Power Jet. I've never seen a Lego set this cool where I immediately needed to order it until this one. It measures about 15" x 12" x 5", pretty big. A very easy decision to purchase this.

This is the PERFECT Lego set for any kid or adult that loves all things aeronautical (planes, jets, etc.) The details on this ship are incredible!My favorite part has to be the cockpit because the controls and detailing are on point! And it can hold two fighter pilot figures (not included but can be found in other sets/individually or make your own from your Lego people!)My second favorite part of this set is the engine compartment that opens and closes seamlessly on the top of the aircraft.

Lego will never disappoint me and my son. He is a super fan of Lego, particularly this 3-in-1 series. He loves to build the easy level, medium level and advanced level. It is just like having fun for 3 times. Although it is for the age of 9-14, my son received it when he was still 9 as his Christmas gift. He could build the 3 modes all by reading the instructions on his own. After completing all 3 levels, he disassembled and started to create his own "vehicle" and enjoyed playing the 4th time.

I ordered that Creator Set as my sons Birthday gift. He loves it. It is so versatile. The 3-in 1 option gives a kid so many possibilities to built and rebuilt it over and over again. The pieces have about the right size for a 9 year old to handle them. They're not too big and not too small. They're easy to assemble and to re-assemble. That set don't just help kids to be creative but to use their imagination as well.I can never go wrong with choosing a Creator product for him.

I asked my 7 year old son what he wanted for Christmas snd he said a jet lego set so this is what he got and it was he favorite present from “Santa”. I thought it might be too advanced for a seven year old but to my surprise he got this down in one day all by himself. Granted, he worked hard on it all day long but he loved it. And I loved the concentration and handwork and dedication he put in it. Plus how quiet the house was! This really was a great toy for him. But I am a little sad to say that it hasn’t help up to well. The pieces have fallen apart when he has tried to play with it or move it around a lot. For the most part it just sits still and we try not to touch it because the wings fall off pretty easily. Luckily for me, my son doesn’t get too distraught. I’m hoping he will just take it apart and use the pieces to build something else with his imagination but we haven’t gotten there just yet.

Got this for my plane-loving son's 6th birthday, and he was able to complete it over several days, with plenty of help. Now, at 7, he's building the set again *mostly* himself, and little brother (4) is also joining in. Lots of fun, with 3 different models to build (at 3 levels of complexity, the plane being the most advanced). Then of course, there's the countless kid-modifications that inevitably happen immediately upon completing it the "official" way... endless possibilities.

The box that the product was sent in was completely fine but the box of the product was completely damaged. The box was scrunched and there was a whole popped into it. I wish I could upload more photos.
