The Lego Creator range of products is unique in that it comes with instructions to build more than one model.So in the case of this set, there are instructions for three distinct houses; the apple tree house, a townhouse and a summer house.You can only build one house at a time but it allows greater playability for fans that are into building models from instructions.The only downside to the creator sets is that they generally don't come with any minifigures, something that Lego could remedy easily in the future.In this set then main house is known as the Apple Tree house and the instruction book is 70 pages so it is quite a long build.It incorporates a very cute and colourful house and garden setting, with an apple tree, working mail box with letters inside, a satellite dish on the roof, a basketball net and lawnmower, opening front and garage doors, a ladder up to the attic and heaps more.It looks good from all angles and with the addition of a minifigure you have a very attractive home.Its a lot of fine details for such a small model and that is one of the highlights of the creator range.The designers, free from licensing and playability restrictions are able to add features that give the models more character.You can take off the roof and play inside which is a nice feature for young fans but like most of these sets there is very little inside.Lego have obviously made the decision to let the builders make their own furniture, which is not a bad idea.The set contains some nice pieces including the blue roof tiles which are a rarity in modern Lego sets but give all custom houses that distinctive touch.The other two houses are also fun to build and have their own distinctive design features.Overall this is a highly appealing set and with the addition of any minifigure would provide hours of building and playability for any fan.
