Great Set, wired instructions

This app, and the 51515 set are both great.
My 51515 set is second hand, but it’s high quality made it look as good as new.
The app, however is kinda weird.
I can’t put my stuff on the community section, and tricky’s basketball launcher is wired when you attach it to tricky, and one step of Charlie’s drum set is also wired.
All in all, this gets 4.8⭐️s.
