I had been wondering about this set, so your review helped me decide to give it a try. It was my first non-Lego brand brick build … and I was overall so happy. It did have one missing piece and I could have easily returned it but I was able to work around it. The missing piece turns me off buying this particular brand again though. If I did, I would count all the pieces before I started. Luckily I don’t mind sorting and counting pieces. I like how long these builds take, and how small they are to display. Good value for money I reckon. I’m now dipping my toe into some Loz builds. Thanks for sharing your reviews ❤

Ah bugger about the missing piece, that is annoying. I'm glad that overall it was a positive experience for you. They are great kits and so cheap compared to LEGO. I was a LEGO kid growing up and I bought some of the more special kits (Like Ghostbusters, Haunted House, Winnie The Pooh) as an adult, but it is very few and far between that I actually get LEGO these days. ❤🤓

Thanks for your reviews I’m feeling more confident to try Loz. So much cheaper than the bigger brick brand name, and smaller to display as well. How often do you find there are missing pieces?
@MiddleAgedGeekGrrrl6 күн бұрын
I have only had 1 kit (so far) I bought that was a problem, and that was the Q-BERT. The original package was missing around 10 pieces, but I got an exchange and the new kit was perfect. I did a video on that so people are aware it can happen, but I honestly don't think it happens often. I always have a lot of pieces left over, so they do add more of the little pieces as they are easy to misplace, and I have done that because I am just clumsy 😂.

Oh my goodness. She is so tiny and cute and adorable. 🥰🥰🥰 I cannot believe how many pieces went into her head and headdress. Your hands are looking so much better. Did you have too many problems assembling the LOZ?
@MiddleAgedGeekGrrrl6 күн бұрын
The fingers are doing much better, there is some tenderness on a couple. My doctor mentioned they would take a long time to completely heal around the sides. My thumb though is not working well at all. It started hurting building the LOZ towards the end as I keep using my right thumb! You might have noticed the light changed slightly as I rested my thumb for a couple of hours around half way through.

Did wonder if you got injured again and backtracked to older videos to check. I won’t give it away in comments, it looks real enough but also too clean and was not swelling at all so that was the giveaway. Looks nice and suits the season.

Not all LOZ are the same, however, from the street minis I have built they are the same scale and can fit into any configuration you want. LOZ Diamond Blocks are even smaller, like nano block size.
