Fun to build lego set recommendation? (self.lego)

I was obsessed with Lego as a kid, and would like to get into the hobby once again, not as an investment, but for the fun of it.

I am huge fan of Star Wars, and Lego star wars seem to be all the rage nowadays, but looking at the sets, they seem to be awfully overpriced for what they seem offer.

I am looking for something that will be fun to build, and not terribly pricey (not more than cca 180€). Preferably fantasy or scifi inspired.

I’ve been browsing the lego website and this set in particular cought my eye. Any recommendations? Thanks

Quality wise? Barely. LEGO bricks are of course branded but that's the main difference by now. They are compatible with each other as well if that's what you're asking.

Ah yes I meant in terms of quality. It's good to hear that they're as high quality as Lego bricks, and being compatible is also a plus. I remember having alternative bricks when I was younger and the quality was noticeably worse so I'm glad they're improving.

Mouldking is one of the best when it comes to quality of the alternatives, I would say on the level of LEGO™. I'd suggest trying it out, they even sell on Amazon and are not that expensive.
