So yes, I am partial to Lego trains. But I'll still try to give you a good review. = Fun: = Educational: This is Lego's lower priced starter set introduced in June of 2010. The train is a red and white, three-car, double-ended electric passenger train with three mini-figures and a small station platform. The passenger sections are modestly furnished and can be accessed via removable tops. The train is attractively designed and represents a good improvement over the set it replaces (7897). The set is more "brick-built" with fewer specialized moldings than the prior set. And it incorporates Lego's latest remote control and motor offerings. The set includes 16 pieces of curved track (which makes a circle) and 16 pieces of flex track (turning the circle into a small oval). It also has the necessary Power Functions accessories (motor, infrared control,...

It replaces 7897, not 7896 as mentioned in another review. Set 7897 is a high-speed passenger train styled after Germany's real-life ICE. Set 7897 had a couple problems: = Fun: = Educational: 1) Not enough straight track (this is endemic to all lego train sets). 2) The cabs of the two end cars were large, single-piece items which look clumsy. The most obvious difference with set 7938 is the color. (The train is now red instead of white with a red stripe.) The cabs represent an immense improvement. They look much nicer in 7938 because they are no longer a single clumsy piece. You also get the newer remotes which allow more trains to operate at once. Unfortunately, this set eliminates straight track all together and replaces it with the dismal (in my opinion, useless) "flexible" track. If you already own 7897, I don't think there's anything compelling about 7938. If you don't, this is a cool set, but you'll definitely want more rails...

The windows were made bigger. The motor is stronger. There are not as many large molded parts either, which do not fit as well as bricks or smaller molded parts. This train uses the power functions system, and it is all quality stuff. The battery box takes 6 AAA batteries, which last for about 4 hours, just like the older train's batteries. You can also order a rechargeable battery box for it. It sure goes fast, so fast that it can fly off the tracks, but it is so strongly built that it survived 3 crashes onto a concrete floor, and it still looks great. I do not recommend going above speed #5 until the batteries are worn down, but it may vary on different track layouts. So, go ahead and but this train versus the older train, because you will get a lot of enjoyement out of it. The only bad thing is the flexible tracks, and the train cannot grip them that well due to the gaps in the "rails" of the tracks, which the train... Read more |
