Easy way to get what you want
I ordered the day before for pickup at my chosen store. I also had a 10% discount voucher. Straight in, showed themn my code and it was easy peasey. Lego is also a good product. Quite pricey, but there is good control of prices by the lego company so you donnt get price variations.

For fans of science ...
I bought this as a treat to myself, as I find building LEGO sets helps calm my more intrusive and irksome ASD & ADHD traits. I would have given 5 stars but felt a couple more famous historical scientist minifigures should've been included, with appropriate accessories and features. Overall, a good deal at the discounted price, and a fun build with interesting techniques.

Great service
Booked online and picked up later that day - couldn't be easier.

A great build, something a little different
Yet another Lego set, yet another great build, not over complicated, but some fiddly bits. Really nice to see how it comes together and evolves as you build it. Not designed as a play set, more a display but a very good one. Definitely recommend to anyone who fancies trying a Lego set for the first time or experienced builders.

Wonderful for STEM lovers!
This is my favourite set that I have built. I loved all the different details, I especially appreciated the hidden ones. The bee was a little fiddly and the app was more helpful to complete bee compared to the book. Once built, it is colourful and lovely to look at, as well as a great talking piece for visitors.

What more can you expect from Lego
What a fantastic set. Was perfect to build with the kids and hopefully peak an interest to follow in the same stem based career or hobbie/passions as myself. Was a very good build strat to finish with a few little Easter eggs thrown in. This was the first set I had where Lego is using the recyclable packaging which I think is a good step forward to reducing single use plastics. Just a great set and a wonderful addition to the collection.

Easy to build and looks good
this Lego was super easy to build with not to many fiddly bits, it does take a while to build but its worth it and means you really get your money worth. this lego is very different than standard sets and may not appeal to everyone such as Disney or cars but if you like building Lego I would 100% recumbend

Great build!
Brilliant set. I built this with my son and we both thoroughly enjoyed it. The moving dna strand and atom are a great addition. It is a tricky build in places so there was parts my son was unable to do by himself but this didn’t take away from how much he enjoyed building it!

Amazing set for adults or older teens.
I normally get lego for my son, but decided to get myself one to have a try at, and i thoroughly enjoyed building this set. There are 3 figures, Marie Curie, Sir Isaac Newton and George Washington Carver, and the instruction book gives facts about each of them as you build them. There are several different aspects of science within this set which would make it an excellent gift for anyone with an interest in science or technology. There are moving parts within this set with a spinning DNA strand and a carbon atom which rises and falls as well. There are a couple of hidden surprises within the set as well which are a nice touch. There are also other facts throughout the instruction book to explain the different parts which you build which again is another nice touch. This was a pretty fiddly set to put together so would definitely suit older teens or adults. It took me around 2.5 hours to complete from start to finish and i am really looking forward to displaying this set now it is complete.

Another thought-provoking piece
I usually delegate Lego to other family members but currently find myself unoccupied so took on the challenge. I’m glad I did as I really enjoyed doing this. Lots of tiny pieces as expected. Very bright and colourful but lots of those “hidden” in the build. I decided to look up the “incorrect” DNA helix and opted to reverse it. I didn’t find this too challenging at all.
