"A tale of two figures: the Demogorgon's inventive brick-built head earns genuine praise, but Eleven's bland construction and the set's thin piece count for the price pull the BrickScore to 56.8. Owners who are Stranger Things fans rate it 4.7/5 and don't share the critics' reservations."
Critics from The Brothers Brick and Jay's Brick Blog land at a moderate mixed verdict on this BrickHeadz pair, with the Demogorgon drawing nearly all the praise and Eleven described as plain and over-reliant on color-blocking. The BrickScore of 56.8 places it in Skip It territory despite genuinely interesting printed parts and an inventive Demogorgon head design. Notably, 385 owners rate it 4.7 out of 5, with 94% saying they would recommend it, suggesting Stranger Things fans are far more forgiving than critics.
Where they split: Critics (BrickScore 56.8) and owners (4.7/5, 94% recommend) disagree sharply. Reviewers found the set underwhelming as a whole product, while buyers overwhelmingly love it, reflecting how licensing enthusiasm can override build-quality concerns. Between expert reviewers, The Brothers Brick was more charitable about the Demogorgon's construction while Jay's Brick Blog called Eleven 'plain' and recommended a skip.

"Much like the Mandalorian and the Child BrickHeadz, this price point makes some sense. The structure of the Demogorgon takes up a decent chunk of pieces in the set and the printed pieces are also a little more complex."

Most owners love the Brickheadz format and Stranger Things theme, though some wish LEGO would expand the character lineup and feel the set itself is not exceptional.
