"With a BrickScore of 49.4 and a Skip It tier, the Rhino Face-Off by the Mine is a set where critics and buyers see very different things: expert reviewers were divided sharply on the inaccurate minifigure designs and short mine track, while 558 owners rated it 4.59 out of 5, suggesting the brick-built rhino and movie connection carry the day for most buyers."
The Rhino Face-Off by the Mine is a deeply split set: Brickset scored it 82 and praised the first-ever LEGO rhinoceros as a highlight of the Black Panther wave, while Jay's Brick Blog scored it just 20 and called the minifigures lazy and the overall set a disappointment at any price. The BrickScore of 49.4 and a Skip It tier verdict reflect the disagreement accurately. Owner ratings present a striking divergence from critics: 4.59 out of 5 across 558 ratings, with 92% recommending, suggesting buyers are far more satisfied than expert reviewers.
Where they split: This set has low reviewer agreement and the split is significant. Brickset (82) considered it great value with a standout rhinoceros; Jay's Brick Blog (20) called the minifigures lazy and the set an outright disappointment. The color inaccuracy on Black Panther (blue instead of purple), the missing prints, and the short track are objective criticisms that Brickset acknowledged but weighted differently. Owner ratings of 4.59/5 across 558 buyers show the general public aligns far more with Brickset than with Jay's Brick Blog, representing a clear expert-versus-owner split.

"Firstly, the name of this set is so incredibly clunky and literal. It's literally a straightforward description of what the set contains"
Jay's Brick Blog"Two sets based upon the film have been released, both of which look great and include an excellent selection of minifigures. 76099 Rhino Face-Off by the Mine is the smaller of those two sets, containing 229 pieces and priced at £19.99 or $19.99. Nevertheless, three exclusive figures are included along with a couple of the new roller coaster track elements and an armoured rhino which looks absolutely fantastic, making brilliant use of the legs introduced for the luggabeast in 75148 Encounter on Jakku from 2016."

Owners consistently praise the impressive Rhino build and exclusive minifigures, though some feel the mine cart and price value don't quite match expectations.
