Every once in a while, Toys R' Us does a LEGO build day. These days offer a small, unique set for kids to build and take home with them, undoubtedly to get kids to be excited about LEGOs and for the parents to go and buy more sets since they are already in the store. The concept is pretty nice: They have the bricks set up in cardboard boxes (pictured below) and each box tells the kids how many pieces they need to make the set. The employees then give the kid an instruction sheet and lets the kids have at it.

 

 

Well that is exactly what we did on Saturday (October 19th). These free sets aren't anything to be awestruck of, but hey, its free and thus its hard to complain. The sets are pretty easy to put together and the instructions are one page, front and back. The sets here don't have a number that I have seen and aren't in the LEGO set database, so I don't know if this is just something Toys R Us puts together or what.

 

 The set for this workshop was a mini robot of the robot I reviewed previously. For being free it's not really a bad set. Sure its not something you can really play with per say, but the parts are good for other builds (a lot of extra joints) and it looks cute next to the larger version of it (below). Even for a polybag (the term given to sets in small plastic bags, the ones usually found for around 5 dollars in the cashiers line as an impulse buy) the set is of pretty good quality. Overall a nice set, easy build, and fun to look at.
