Others say...
"Great Book- Great Instructions" This book has step-by-step instructions that are fun to build and use. My Jr High students really enjoyed making the projects.
"Forbidden but FUN lego" Great book, as soon as my four sons saw the word FORBIDDEN the wanted to read it right away.
"Hopefully the first of a long series" This is a great book for LEGO aficionados wanting to push the boundaries of this wonderful Danish product.
Personal favourites include the full-functioning ground-to-air missile - built from the Fire Rescue set - and the life-size girlfriend with realistic hair that can be cobbled together from combining the Star Wars: Clone Trooper with various Bionicle sets.
My life would be complete if they were to publish a second book showing how to make a working distillery.
"Forbidden Lego" I use Lego to experiment with mechanisms for engineering students and so I was interested to see some of the authors designs. The book is well presented with building steps illustrated with excellent colour diagrams. The introduction and the explanation of the "Lego Rules" was a surprising but interesting addition. The only limitation of the book is that some of the parts were special parts, which come from a Lego Technics kit, which might be difficult to source for people without the Technic Kits. I would still recommend the book as it still has great ideas.
"Interesting Book for LEGO builders" I've been a LEGO builder for my whole life, starting with the original castle series. This book has instructions for all those sets you wish you could've bought, and then used to torment your siblings and parents.
Some highlights include: Ping pong ball catapult LEGO plate gun and so forth...
I havent built them yet, but each set has a description of why its not allowed as an "official" set (for instance, one requires you to wire two lego power packs together, making one more powerful power pack). There are also some stories about desigining official lego sets, and other interesting lego trivia.
Its a fun book to read, and I cant wait to build some "Forbidden Lego"

What our customer's say!
"Incomplete!!!!!!", This book is not useful!!!! Great ideas, but no parts numbers listed. Too hard to find the pieces necessary to make the models. Pictures are not detailed enough to redesign the machines yourself. You might as well read the project names from the table of contents and design your own machines to carry out the functions.
"More than just an instruction book", I've enjoyed with this book not only creating some of the creations it has, but also reading the LEGO design-related stories, guidelines and ideas the authors have written through all the chapters.
The pages format and design are very attractive and the building steps are perfectly structured, fun and easy to understand.
For me, a must-have being a LEGO fan.
"fun to read but frustrating to do", We bought this book for our 8 year old lego-fantatic son. He really enjoyed reading the book and looking at the designs. But as for doing the projects...as others have said, there aren't that many actual projects in there, and most of those require specialized pieces my son doesn't have. In order to get the right pieces, he must either buy a kit that includes those pieces (such as a motor) or go to one of the sites that will sell individual pieces...but the prices are high for a kid.
So, although he was excited to get this as a gift, it hasn't worked out so well for him.
I'd rather a book that gave more projects with more standard pieces.
"not impressed ...", the boook is fine, but you only get five "projects". for $17 dollars new, you'd think there would be more ... guess i should have reviewed the table of contents before purchasing. also, the pieces aren't identified well enough for me. a name, or piece number would work MUCH better because i don't have some of the pieces and would need to purchase them, so now, i have to order them, blah, blah, blah. anyway, the book is nice, slick and well bound. there, i said something positive.
"No parts = waste of money", I was very excited to get this book for my LEGO-crazed son, and the included projects are great...EXCEPT for the fact, as others have pointed out, that many required parts are, to say the least, non-typical. To require the book purchaser to spend hours searching for parts online, then spending multiples of the book price to get them, is deceptive to say the least. Bad form. It's like writing a cookbook with recipes requiring ingredients only available in ancient Mesopotamia or on modern-day Madagascar.

"Flawed but cool", There are a number of cool projects in this book, including a ping pong ball shooter and a paper airplane launcher. The instructions are purely pictorial, in keeping with other Lego instruction manuals. Definitely not for the inexperienced builder.
My main criticism: the authors should have included a list of resources, places online where we can purchase some of these pieces. NAMING some of the more exotic-looking pieces would be helpful, too, since it can be a challenge to find some of these items online if you don't know their names.
"A gift I almost didn't give.", I wanted to keep this all for myself, but now I must watch out for flying legos. Great book.
"for those who enjoy their second childhood", This book is well laid out with various plans for Lego siege items. The plans are well printed and feature bright and easy to read diagrams. I recommend this for all Lego enthusiasts who enjoy all things Lego.
"FORBIDDEN LEGO BOOK", This is a really fun book for kids who are really into Lego building and robotics. The only thing missing is a list of the proper names for the parts so youy can find the ones you are missing. Lots of fun and adaptable projects.
"Wonderful Lego Enthusiasts Book!!", 'Forbidden Lego: Build the Models Your Parents Warned You Against!' is one of, if not the best Lego building book you will find out today. Jam packed with 200+ pages in FULL COLOR (I stress this because there are several other good Lego books on the market that don't have this which keep them from being great), there are plenty of designs that will keep you and your kids having fun for days, weeks, months, and possibly years to come!
If I am a Lego fan, I am looking for a book that gives me lots of clear examples, several fun projects to build, step by step instructions, and the FULL COLOR that any reader would demand not only because it looks better but with something so hands on and color intense as Legos, this just makes the whole experience easier and BETTER overall.
If you are a Lego fan who wants to get some new ideas and build some cool new things, pick up this book and let the fun begin!!!
***** HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
