"Despite a high Amazon average, the expert consensus and LEGO.com buyer data both point the same direction: 76155 In Arishem's Shadow is overpriced for what it delivers, with weak parts value and a repetitive build that only justifies the $59.99 ask for committed Eternals fans."
76155 In Arishem's Shadow earns a Skip It verdict from BrickPicker's expert consensus with a BrickScore of 58.7, driven by weak parts value (39.6), poor value-for-money (49), and below-average playability scores (54.8) relative to the $59.99 price tag. The split with owner sentiment is stark and worth calling out directly: 988 ratings average 4.77 out of 5 on Amazon and Walmart, but LEGO.com buyers tell a more honest story with only 69% would-recommend and a value-for-money signal of 3.76 out of 5. That LEGO.com subset, closer to purchaser-informed feedback, aligns with the expert verdict that this set underdelivers for the price unless the buyer is specifically an Eternals fan.
Where they split: The gap between Amazon's 4.77 average (dominated by casual and gift purchasers) and the expert consensus BrickScore of 58.7 is the defining divergence here. LEGO.com's own buyers, who provide aspect-level scores, give value only 3.76 out of 5 and a 69% recommend rate, which is far closer to the expert assessment than the Amazon star rating suggests.

"At $59.99 for 493 pieces, this is a costly 12 cents per part. The price is not justified despite the two exclusive figures and the large Celestial build. The reviewer suggests waiting for a deep sale or clearance pricing, where it might work as an interesting parts pack."
Owners overwhelmingly praise the set's engaging build, attractive design, and light-up feature, though some criticize the high price point and feel the figure resembles outdated Bionicle designs.
