"Piranha Attack is a Recommended sub-$20 set that overdelivers on design creativity and exclusive minifigure value, marred only by a widely noted print-quality defect on the Lady Iron Dragon figure that LEGO acknowledged but never fully resolved."
Piranha Attack (70629) earns a Recommended verdict with a BrickScore of 79.8, with Brickset calling it 'brilliant' and praising its extraordinary value at $19.99 for 217 pieces alongside a standout minifigure selection. The set's two main builds, a wacky piranha mech and an ornate pulled rickshaw, both receive specific praise for design creativity. Owners broadly agree: 537 ratings average 4.69 out of 5, and the value-for-money signal comes in at 4.2 out of 5, confirming that buyers feel they got their money's worth. One consistent flaw, the washed-out Lady Iron Dragon face print, surfaces in nearly every review.

"This is a brilliant set. I love the unusual design of the Piranha Mech and the pulled rickshaw includes an exceptional level of detail given its small size."

"One of the more interesting original builds that I've seen LEGO come up with in in a while. It's just so weird, so different."

Owners love the fun builds and minifigure variety, but the Lady Iron Dragon's face print quality is a consistent and major disappointment, and the rickshaw proportions feel off.
