"The Retro Radio earns its Recommended verdict and then some: a 4.67-star average from over 1,300 owners and 77% would-recommend reflects a genuinely beloved build in the Icons lineup, distinguished by working dials, a sound brick, an all-printed design, and a finished model that functions as a daily-use phone speaker."
The Retro Radio (10334) is one of the most broadly praised Icons sets in recent years, earning a 4.67-star average across 1,383 owner ratings and a would-recommend rate of 77%. Reviewers consistently describe it as a standout building experience within the Icons lineup, elevated by functional dial mechanics tied to a sound brick and the ability to use the finished model as a working phone speaker. The BrickScore of 72.9 sits comfortably in the Recommended tier, with owner enthusiasm running notably higher than the score might suggest.
Where they split: Reviewer consensus is unusually tight. All 18 reviewed LEGO.com submissions gave maximum marks, and the aspect scores show no major category dragging against the others. The only recurring split is between buyers who are delighted by the sound brick and those who feel it falls short as an 'actual radio,' with some modifying the set to fit a Bluetooth speaker or Echo Dot instead. This is a preference gap rather than a quality disagreement.

"this has been the best LEGO set I've built all year long, which is something I don't say very often if you know me or my videos well enough"
Tiago Catarino"This set has the orange wave selector part that was previously only used exclusively in Technic sets with a gearbox, and here it does something very similar, so please don't underestimate this set!"

"at first glance to me I don't think I see $100 worth of plastic here so we're going to have to rely on extra features Beyond just the box"

"I probably will not be buying this one because it's a hundred dollars for a box."

Most owners adore the Retro Radio for its gorgeous design, interactive sound brick, and working dials, but a meaningful minority report significant mechanical reliability problems with the sound brick mechanism and fragile construction.
