In the comics and the movies, the mansion is meant to be outside the city in a more remote area. In the first X-Men movie, Xavier states that the school is located in Westchester which is just outside New York and in the first Lego Marvel videogame, the mansion is on a remote hill, just outside Manhatten. So I suggest putting it in the more countryside area where you could have lots of nice trees and bushes surrounding it.

This was such an out of touch thing for bricksie to say. For most people, $330 is an absurdly high price for a set like this. It looks ridiculously small next to most other sets from the same theme, and for something called a “mansion” it’s laughably miniscule. They didn’t design the set this tiny to “inspire creativity”. They made it as cost effective as they think they can get away with to work within their set budget and are hoping people will buy it regardless because of their loyalty to Lego or nostalgia for x-men. Not all of us are given free copies of a $330 set just to have the privilege of spending another $330 to make it into the size it should have been in the first place.

Getting the $330 to buy one of these would be a stretch but needing two or three to truly make it appropriately sized and detailed is out of hand for the majority of collectors.

I hate to say it, but this building is a lot more along the lines of some of the decade old creator 3 in 1 city sets like the “bicycle shop and cafe” or “toy and grocery shop”. It’s got very simplistic architecture for a 2024 set, and like those sets I mentioned it’s too small to look like it belongs on a street of modulars (even ones that haven’t been enlarged as yours have) without a lot of custom modifications and additions. I think a lot of the cost is in all those minifigs, the sentinel, and the costly IP, so there wasn’t much left for the building. It’s a set thats good for its play qualities more than its display qualities. If I were a kid I would love this for play, but the price probably puts it out of most parent’s budget. With all that, I am confused who the intended audience really is. I am disappointed. I won’t be purchasing it, and I’m not inclined to recreate just the building only for my city because it’s not interesting by itself.

The mansion looks more like a toy you would go out and buy for a kid, I can see Lego needs to keep costs down but there are other ways. One being to sell modules for the mansion with 1 or 2 figures and once you have them all they form the mansion to the correct size, it could still be customisable by getting extra modules or just using what parts you have. Each part would be affordable with the final build costing far more than this one but spread out over time as they release sections. Displayed as the mansion is now is the only thing its good for, A lot of money for a dust collector.

You've heard about tiny houses, now make way for LEGO and their invention, the tiny mansion! Can the sentinel can stand on it's own? If so it's a waste of space to put it on the studs for their design. If they did use the blank space you'd pay even more with the increased piece size, and the height would still be dissapointing. If there is the argument of them wanting to display a battle scene it's kinda meh, there is plenty of action to be found on the box image of the Avengers Tower and the Daily Bugle and it didn't need to have this space up front to do so. On the box of this one Wolverine and Cyclops are still standing on a flat surface despite having the garden and sidewalk. This would be better without the presence of the sentinel and a increased size for the mansion all around. Give Magneto's sentinel as a GWP or make it a set of it's own with a few (missing) minifigures and you're done and people can make it a battle scene if they want to. Despite this criticism the modular design of it and the interior design is nice.

Unfortunately, Lego is pricing out a lot of adults with this set for it being so expensive and really so small. This is the X-men Mansion!! It should be a lot bigger ( like they should have added a 3rd floor) and they should have added more detail to the exsisting figures for this insanely high price of $330. For example, look at the Daily Buge set that is only $20 more and the Bugle set is a 1000x better and bigger than this set and with a lot more figures! I saw this set at my local Lego store the other day and it was incerdibly underwelming! I won't be buying this set unless I find it for a fantastic deal. This set is a crazy let down.

The building should have at least been the same size as the Natural History Museum; it needs more depth, and it needs to be taller. For me, I don't have a Lego city, so having it on display on a shelf the depth itself isn't that important, but it needs to be taller, and I will try make an additional floor (by ordering parts as well as using parts I have; I am not buying two copies of this set!). Also, waaaay to many stickers. While I understand some use of stickers (and I do like the optional "damage stickers"), in an expensive 18+ set like this some of the stickers should have been printed pieces. Also, I think it could have had a few more minifigs.

Why they made it that size and price is because they could and they wanted to, so they did. It’s already priced out of the market for a whole bunch of demographics. It’s X-Men themed based on X-Men the Animated series, which is really popular with 80s and 90s babies like me and it’s popular again because of X-Men ‘97. So they came up with a scale set that comes with all kinds of neat pieces for, as usual, a premium price. And people will get it because it has so many characters and details that they like. Most X-Men collectors, especially if they just want to collect X-Men stuff not necessarily Lego, just have sets. The majority of people who collect do not have Lego cities; I think that’s mostly KZbinrs. The amount of people who have that type of room and investment is limited. Whereas most will build it, play with it, and it will be on its own shelf. One could argue that Lego cashed in on the other superhero sets and went too big with them. Lego scale is very varied. Look at Hogwarts behind you. I also think they should have included Hank/Beast and not Bobby/Iceman.

I think to make it really stand out, it should be in the countryside, and maybe increase the size by another two sets, to make it wider deeper and taller
