"A Highly Recommended GWP with a BrickScore of 85, the Up-Scaled Baby Astronaut is one of the more charming and well-crafted promotional sets LEGO has produced, and the demand from owners to see it sold as a standalone retail set is the clearest possible endorsement of its design."
Both Brickset and Bricksie gave the Up-Scaled Baby Astronaut an 85, pointing to its excellent SNOT execution, adorable proportions relative to the original 2cm minifigure, and a clever Easter egg interior representing each classic space colorway. Owner ratings from LEGO.com are strong at 4.58 across 9 ratings with an 83% would-recommend. The one universal criticism is that it is not sold as a standalone set, a sentiment owners expressed repeatedly.

Owners love the Baby Astronaut as a cute, quick GWP build, but want it sold as a standalone set with color variants and better quality control on missing pieces.
