Review: Lego Nutcracker - This is smaller than I expected but was a fun build and he looks so cute. My BIGGEST complaint is the delivery service from desertcart. I will attach pictures so you can see. The box was so damaged I wasn't sure if all of the pieces would be there. My grandson encouraged me to just build it and find out ;-) I'm 72 so I had a hard time figuring out what color brick the instructions were telling me to use. The tan and yellow pictures, while you think would show up a lot differently, almost look the same. So I did have to back track and change out some pieces where I guessed wrong.
