REVIEW: 60398 Family House and Electric Car

Recommended Posts

Here is my review on LEGO city 60398 Family House and Electric Car:

THE GOOD:

  • Looks great with a modern design.
  • Some interesting interior details like the fridge & bathroom
  • The glass house patio is looking really nice and fun little build.

THE NOT SO GOOD:

  • Extremely expensive at full price.
  • Advertised as modular style but actually not many variation to reconnect unless you buy multiple of this and start making your own creation.

It is a very nice modern looking house.  While the building experience is very straight forward, I did enjoy it and like the end product.  The fridge using the newer door piece is something refreshing.  It's also interesting how the bathroom has the shower and toilet but it's very very tight there.  Upstairs are the bedrooms and I like how the pillows are represented.  Good use of stickers for the kid's TV for his video games.   I wish the kitchen stove uses the Queer Eye printed stove piece instead of a sticker though.  The Electric car itself is quite up to date with the lights design, but how can it only fit one person while this is a family of 3!?  The car port is very spacious and fit the car perfectly with a EV charger.  A good mixture of minifigures with some new parts and including a puppy is a plus definitely.  However, the main drawback of this set is really the price.  at full price, it's NZ$95, this is pretty ridiculous pricing, I probably will hold off buying this if it wasn't Amazon doing a 25% off.  Despite how great it looks, still can't justify the full price.  Also the box shows how each sections can be re-arranged but the only part there are pins ready for you to customize is really switching the little sections with flowers and between the patio.  If you need to customization, you probably need to buy 2!  I like the set but with the price, I probably will recommend the Creator 3 in 1 Cosy House instead =)

Reminds me heavily of 6374: Holiday Home (Which I received as a child and still have).
