"With a BrickScore of 77.2, LEGO Ideas 21370 E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial earns a confident recommend from both reviewers: it's a nostalgic, display-worthy sculpture with a face that genuinely works, clever internal Easter eggs, and a satisfying build — best suited to adult fans of the film or the Ideas line."
Both reviewers agree that LEGO Ideas 21370 E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial is a charming, well-executed brick-built sculpture that captures the iconic alien's likeness with impressive fidelity. The expressive face, wrinkled texture achieved through half-stud offsets, and thoughtful Easter eggs (microscale spaceship, red telephone handle, light brick glow) are consistent highlights. Reviewers are aligned in recommending it primarily as a display piece for adult LEGO fans and E.T. enthusiasts, with the build experience rated as enjoyable but not overly complex. The set earns a BrickScore of 77.2, reflecting solid all-around performance with display value as its strongest suit.
Where they split: Minor divergence on playability: The Rambling Brick rated it 70 (acknowledging the articulation as a genuine positive), while RacingBrick scored it 50, emphasizing that it is firmly a sculpture rather than an action figure. Both ultimately recommend it for display, but RacingBrick is more explicit that the playability limitation is a real drawback for some buyers.
"E.T.'s belly is covered in wrinkles; his arms are long and spindly, and the face is remarkably expressive."
