For those LEGO fans in Western New York, our Amherst Toys R Us was putting out the LEGO Friends Sets today. I had a bunch of coupons to use, so I picked up this set for free, which is good since Toys R Us marks up their prices. Anyway, I chose this set because it had a bunch of cute new elements - cupcake wrappers, utensils, a very nice cash register. I was pleasantly surprised by the blue plates - there are 3, and one of them is one of the new, larger square ones they've started making.
Also, the minifigs are not that much larger than traditional LEGO minifies. I thought they'd sort of bother me, but they really don't. Overall I really like the new parts and colors in this set. I'm interested in getting a few more of the Friends sets because of the unique parts and colors.
If you can get it for a discount price, this is a nice purchase. $34.99 (Toys R Us MSRP) for 222 pieces is a bit steep, otherwise.
