My son, who usually loves Lego Star Wars, wanted me to write this on his behalf after becoming frustrated with this kit:

"I had a forty-dollar gift card and spent it on this toy. I love other Star Wars Lego sets, but this one was different. It kept on falling apart! So, it took like 7 hours just to put it together! That's because each wing is held together by only 2 pieces. I had to add extra pieces just to keep it from falling apart as I built it.

But I have to say it looks really cool. And I have tried to play with it but the rocket compartment keeps on falling out.

If you build this, don't expect to play with it, just say it is a decoration."

I got to say I was thrilled to get this toy, it nearly took the entire day to build and half the night trying to make it stay in its place. But the design is realy good and when you put the droid in the the ship the droid kind of flicks and gets realy annoying and they only put the cool thing in the back also its kinda not fun because it breaks every time I try to play with it, but it's a realy cool toy.

I am not sure what the other reviewers are doing wrong but I got this for Christmas, put it together right away and I had no problems at all with it falling apart. I saw this when it was one of the gold box deals and didn't think I would like it but now that I have it, it's awesome. The two Magna Droids that come with it are pretty cool. The way the cockpit opens is pretty neat and it has enough weapons to destroy any Arc Fighter it sees. And again, ignore those reviews about it falling apart..I just tried to pull the wings off and it didn't come apart.

I bought this toy for my grandson's birthday. He turned thirteen and this was his greatest desire. When he opened it, his eyes got as big as saucers and he began going into the greatest detail about what this toy would do - I didn't understand it, all I know is that it made him the happiest kid in the world for quite some time. He and his Dad play with it together. Family gift.

It's one of the coolest legos i have. But the problem is when i hold it shake's and almost breaks.

The entire Lego Star Wars line is just awesome - my son's imagination is stirred by it, his building skills, dexterity, abstract thinking (reading the assembly manuals)and problem-solving abilities are all enhanced by his Star Wars Lego initiatives!

My son loves anything Lego, but if it's Star Wars Lego then it's even better! He put this together in an afternoon and loves it. Lego is great.

My son is collecting the Legos Star Wars sets. What collection would be complete without this one? He loves it!

I got this for my son who just turned 8. He put it together in a few hours and had the same problems others are talking about; mainly the wing felt off and he couldn't fix it. So after watching him struggled for a few times, I decided to take the whole thing apart and walked through with him. I think the main problem was his fingers aren't strong enough, and he might have done one or two steps incorrect, but we spent two hours and put the whole thing together and it's solid and sturdy. He's been having tons of fun playing with it, carrying it all around, and so far nothing fall apart yet.

Just an excellent lego model. Very sturdy and solid in it's construction (pieces don't easily come off). Well thought out. More lego models should be like this for playability.

PRO's-Solid construction, nicely designed, sliding cockpit canopy, two hidden storage areas for MagnaGuards weapons, two hidden flick-fire missiles, and 2 MagnaGuard mini-figures with sculpted heads and unique capes.

Con's-Wish it had another area to hold the second Magna-Guard mini-figure.

Overall, just a solid fun build kit. Recommended.
