Good price and fun build. Just be aware that the number of pieces is somewhat inflated since you end up dumping something like 200 of the studs into the pot.

Also be weary that if you don't have it in a stable place all those pieces are going to fly everywhere. Honestly I want to KMS every time it happens

Bonsai trees are supposed to be calming, but I could see this being the one Lego set that drives me into the asylum…

The set contains two variations as well which cuts down on the total pieces count.

Thank you all - My kid cursed her way through setting up Yoda - I think this would send her over the edge. I will pass, even if it looks cool and she loves Cobra Kai.

Why would anyone buy this vs the real thing?

The whole point of bonsai is to find some peace and calm in caring for it.

This is pretty cheesy. IMO
Because most people will kill their real Bonsai tree.

Been so tempted by this. Anyone try the LED kits they sell on Amazon for these yet? Wonder if they're good.

A friend of mine has this set and I can say it looks way better in person than the pictures, and yea it's got hundreds of frogs but once built you can't really tell.
