This is quite an impressive set from lego.I love how they put so much into detail.It comes with Luke Skywalker and Obi-wan Kenobi with Luke's Landspeeder and a secret compartment for Luke's lightsaber.Lego has already made the landspeeder,but this is the new version with different colors and is bigger.You also get a little cantina set with a table with a secret compartment and the new minifig Greedo.I like the cantina alot cause you can recreate the seen with Greedo and Han Solo.it also comes with a movable cantina bar and moving door that you can adjust however you like.The set also comes with a dewback and the new sandtrooper minifig.He comes whith a stick to guide the dewback and a backpack.Oh I almost forgot here is a little tip use the pieces from the cantina and a bigger base and make a bigger cantina.I hope this will help some people.

I liked this set alot because it has some really good figs - greedo for example but it is called mos eisley cantina. I think it should be called mos eisley cantina room because there is only one room of the cantina. But it did come with greedo, a shocktrooper sandtrooper, and a dewback which are exclusive!!

Mos Eisley Cantina (LEGO 4501) is one of my favorite LEGO sets. This is the only set in which you can get a Greedo minifigure (one of the best minifigures, in my opinion) and a Dewback. Also included with the set are minifigures of Han Solo, Obi-Wan (as played by Alec Guinness), young Luke Skywalker, and a Sandtrooper.

The remake of the landspeeder is well done and closer to the original color from Episode IV than LEGO 7110 Landspeeder. The cantina itself is small - one room with two tables and two chairs - but constructed from solid pieces with appropriate colors. I am hoping that LEGO will produce companion sets that include other famous characters from the cantina (Hammerhead, the band, Snaggletooth, Walrus Man, etc.) I highly recommend this set to any Star Wars collector or fan.

THE KEY EXCLUSIVE ELEMENTS THAT MAKE THIS NOW-RETIRED 2004 SET UNIQUE AND RARE ARE THE REPTILIAN DEWBACK AND HIS MOUNTED IMPERIAL TATOOINE SANDTROOPER RIDER (DEFINED BY THE ORIGINAL ORANGE PAULDROM PRESENT OF HIS RIGHT SHOULDER AND HIS USE OF THE AIR-COOLER BACKPACK EQUIPMENT.) THE OTHER UNIQUE MINIFIGURE IN THE SET IS THE NOTORIOUS "GREEDO" , THE RODIAN BOUNTY HUNTER WHO WORKED FOR JABBA THE HUTT AND WAS KILLED BY HAN SOLO IN CHALMUN CANTINA IN MOS ELSEY. THE REMAINING MINIFIGS, VEHICLE AND VARIOUS PARTS AND BRICKS HAVE BEEN REPEATED IN COUNTLESS FORMS AND/OR ARE ALL AVAILABLE IN NEWER SETS.

Lego's Star Wars Cantina playset offers hours of fun, but is quite scant if you consider the number of actual "alien" possibilities they could have included. Did Lego's rush the Cantina through production? There needs to be more aliens and pilots and snaggletooths and jawas...and even the bartender Wuher.

Dr. Evazan and Panda Baba would have also improved this package...and I personally find a Han and Greedo combination to be too predictable. The fact that it offers a patrol dewback and landspeeder is a big plus and makes it worth the money. Lego's just needs to issue some additional "supplementary" character packs to liven up this playset. Is this in the works?

It's great but the only reason why i didn't rate it five stars is becaus it kept on breaking.it took me about 3-4 days to build it. it stressed me becuuse the bendy wires would keep popping out of land speeder,but other than that it's auwesome!

There is no star wars fan out there who will not appreciates Lukes little craft.

My little boy LOVES this Lego. He roleplays the characters...word for word! And move for move. I have it sitting on my desk, at home. Its a simple, clever make of the infamous scene from "A New Hope." A good buy.
