by Nikita P.

It doesn't matter if you are an adult that loves LEGO or a kid that can't do without it, you will love to know that there are best LEGO sets under 100 that can be bought quite cheaply. As a kid, I grew up coupling the LEGOs together to form awesome toys. I could play with them over and over again. These toys improved my creativity a lot, and I was not the only one. Some engineers have linked their creativity and the love for building from coupling these bricks together. 



We have brought together some sets that you should consider getting especially since they are affordable. Some of these sets are true to the movie theme, game theme, and so on. Some are small, while others begin. Some are quite detailed, while others are simple. 


Best LEGO sets under 100

If you have one hundred dollars and you are wondering what gift to give that loved one, you should consider going through this list. You will be thankful. 


1. LEGO SHIP IN A BOTTLE

This set is awesome and appealing to the eyes. I can't believe that it costs below a hundred dollars. Left for me, I would have fixed it higher than that because of its appearance. Have you ever watched a pirate movie where you see a ship in a bottle sitting as an ornament? This is what this is trying to mimic. This is quite unique and not something that you see every day. If you have met this set in a friend's place, there is a great chance that you would have wanted one cow yourself. This is an original concept that you will fancy. 


There is a stand that holds the bottle, and we have no choice but to be amazed at how detailed it is. It comes with a decorated name plaque. The bottle is designed in such a way that it can beautify wherever you place it in. The bottle beautifies the ship inside of it too.

It is important to note that it is quite fragile. It is not like your regular LEGO set that may fall and can easily be coupled together. 


It is a delicate structure, as the bottle can easily be scratched. Apart from that, if it falls, it will break. 



This is one reason that this set may not be great for a clumsy kid or even a clumsy adult. As long as you can place it where it won't fall, you will love this set. It can look new for a very long time. 


This set has a weight of 2.2 pounds, with the following measurements: 3 inches high, 12 inches wide, and 3 inches deep.

One issue that you may notice in this set is the fact that the legs of the characters may not move the way other characters move. Well, it is one of the best LEGO sets under 100, so, we forgive them.

3.Super Heroes The Hulk Buster Smash

Marvel fans couldn't get enough of this set when it came out. There is hardly any Marvel fan that doesn't love the Hulk. That green monster is almost everyone's favorite and is quite likable. We appreciate the struggles that it goes through and this is one reason it has numerous fans. 


This kit is great for anyone, be it an adult or a kid. If you are looking for a set to get a loved one, you should consider getting them this. 


lego Super Heroes The Hulk Buster Smash

You will see different characters when you buy this set like the Hulk Buster suit, Hulk, Iron Man, Ultron, and Scarlet Witch.


The issue that you might notice is the fact that these pieces seem to have different shades from the real deal. Sometimes, the quality of the characters may be annoying. 



For example, if you look at the Iron Man character, the shade of red is not right. It looks kind of pink. When did Iron Man start wearing a shade of pink in his suit? Come on. 


You will see Hulk wearing a pair of purple shorts that are not designed appropriately. If you ignore these flaws, you will notice that this set is quite awesome. We feel they could have done better with keeping to details, but well, it costs below a hundred dollars. What can we say but accept it? If you don't mind it having those tiny flaws, you should consider buying this set, you will love it. 


If the kid or adult that you want to buy this for as a gift is a Marvel fan, there is a great chance that they may love it.

When I laid my eyes on this set, I wanted more and more. You will also come across some awesome characters like the fighter pilot, an inquisitor, as well as an imperial officer. Every character comes with a weapon that you will love.

If you use the missile launching system, you may notice some snags with it. It is not easy for the laser pieces to easily fit.


You will notice that they fall out almost every time that you try to put them in place.

Some parents are of the idea that this set may not be affordable. Their concern is that other sets of this theme come with far more features and are quite affordable, while this is on the opposite side. You may notice that some prices are quite loose and small.

I like the fact that LEGO ensured that this kit functions well. You can easily move things without stress and have them unclipped.
