Great value

#13 of 159 Friends sets with 200–499 pieces

For $19.99, this van gives about 117 pieces per $10, half again the typical 78, plus 36% more plastic per dollar than a typical set and two figures. A 3.5 rating from just six builders is the one weak spot; at roughly 28% less than similar contents (about $28) it’s still great value.
