"Table Football earns its Recommended standing as a genuinely clever Ideas set with exceptional minifigure variety and real family-build appeal, but its BrickScore of 70.1 and owner value rating of 3.45 out of 5 both signal that the $249.99 price was a persistent sticking point that kept it short of must-have status."
Owner reviews for the Table Football set are enthusiastic about its dual role as a building project and a playable game, with an average of 3.93 out of 5 from 60 ratings and 67% would-recommend on LEGO.com. Critics aligned in seeing this as a clever Ideas concept with standout minifigure variety, though value concerns and gameplay limitations kept it from higher praise. The $249.99 price point was consistently flagged as a stretch, with many buyers noting satisfaction was contingent on catching a sale.
Where they split: The sharpest divergence was on value. Some buyers rated value at 100 and felt the figure count alone justified the cost; others scored it at 60-80 and said $250 was simply too much at full retail. The gameplay ceiling also divided opinions: fans of the concept were delighted, while buyers expecting something closer to a real foosball table were underwhelmed.

"Robust, decorative and surprisingly good fun"
"This was the winning submission in the We Love Sports LEGO Ideas contest, and let's get right to the main question: the winning submission was a full-size, 11-on-11 table football setup (usually referred to as foosball in the U.S.). When the contest results were announced, lots of fans were excited to get a near full-size playable game. That swiftly turned to disappointment when the official pictures were released. The set has been scaled down to 5-a-side, less than half the size of the original!"

Table Football divides buyers sharply: fans of LEGO who understand its limitations as a display-plus-light-play set love the build experience and customizable minifigures, while many buyers expecting a functional foosball table feel it is overpriced, undersized, and hampered by the goalkeeper and defenders sharing a single rod.
