"Mystery Plane Adventures earns its Mixed Reviews rating: the Headless Horseman is a genuinely excellent minifigure but the biplane is thin and overpriced at $0.16 per piece, and expert reviewers split on whether the figure lineup rescues the value. Scooby-Doo fans and younger builders rate it far higher, averaging 4.69 out of 5 stars across 339 owners."
Expert reviewers land in firmly mixed territory on Mystery Plane Adventures (BrickScore 64.3), with JANG calling it a fair deal once you account for the content and BRICKSET labeling it the weakest of the five Scooby-Doo sets. Both agree the minifigure trio is the main draw and that the plane itself is underwhelming for the price. Owner sentiment tells a very different story: 339 ratings average 4.69 out of 5, with 94% saying they would recommend it, showing that Scooby-Doo fans and younger buyers are far more forgiving of the value concerns critics raised.
Where they split: JANG rated the set a 78 and called it a reasonable buy given the content volume; Brickset gave it a 50 and recommended waiting for a 25% discount, calling the plane unimpressive. Owner ratings at 4.69 out of 5 align much closer to JANG's more forgiving read, creating a meaningful split between critical and consumer sentiment.
