"Critics and informed buyers agree: at $89.99, 75423 delivers an interactive play experience with lights and sounds but fails as a display model and represents poor value for money, earning a BrickScore of 36.6 and a Skip It verdict backed by a 25% would-recommend rate from LEGO.com buyers."
Expert critics awarded 75423 a BrickScore of 36.6, the lowest possible tier (Skip It), driven by very low aspect scores for display value (30), design aesthetics (25), and value for money (15). The set is built around LEGO's Smart Play brick system, which adds motion-activated lights and sounds, but critics found the design compromised by the technology integration and the $89.99 price point unjustifiable for 584 pieces at $0.154 per piece. Owner data reveals a meaningful split: an overall 4.12 average across 351 ratings looks acceptable until the LEGO.com-specific signals tell a sharper story, with value for money rated just 2.4 out of 5, play experience 3.1 out of 5, and only 25% of LEGO.com buyers saying they would recommend it.
Where they split: The most striking divergence in this set is between the Amazon owner rating (4.8 out of 5 from 119 ratings) and the LEGO.com buyer signals, where value for money sits at 2.4 and only 25% would recommend. The Amazon ratings appear heavily influenced by promotional and gifted reviews, while the LEGO.com data from direct buyers is considerably more critical, which aligns with the expert BrickScore of 22.5.
