5.0 out of 5 stars Review from a collector's viewpoint December 4, 2011

By John Lujan

Durability: 4.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 3.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   

I purchased this set for myself, a 31 y/o Star Wars nut, so this review is going to be more for people like me that build these sets for the fun of uilding and to put them on display. So far this is my largest Lego build, and by far was the most enjoyable to put together. The detail level on it is very nice, and all of the core structure is very sturdy. There are a few pieces that will pop off fairly easily, but they are all cosmetics (antennas, turrets, etc.) and are quite simple to just pop back on. The stickers appear to be pretty good and will probably stay attached on display for a long time. It is pre-organized into numbered bags that correpsond to a step in the build process, which makes it much less time consuming to build (no more digging through 1k pieces looking for that one little 1peg piece). This organized assembly process is also kind of neat to watch, as it goes together just like modern naval vessels: One segment at a time. It is a large kit, and will take up quite a bit of space on your display shelf. I'm going to have mine on a coffee table next to the Milenium Falcon kit I'm getting for Xmas. It is well balanced enough that hanging it from the carry handle is probably a viable option as well.

3.0 out of 5 stars Kinda dissapointing actually October 26, 2011

By Aric A. Dilbeck

Durability: 3.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 2.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 2.0 out of 5 stars   

Bought this product for my 10 yr old nephew's birthday (plus the fun of building a big lego set, I admit : Construction took about 3 hours with a couple of breaks spaced throughout. was initially impressed just by the sheer size of the thing (twenty inches long) other than a couple of small antennas that kept popping off, it felt sturdy. Came with a retractable carrying handle which was a nice touch. Comes with stickers for some of the bricks instead of having printed pieces. A major bummer for me, and potentially for kids, as one sticker going on crooked could ruin the whole look of the set. I'm not huge on the clone wars, so I cannot attest to the jedi figures or the troopers, yoda was kinda cute, my nephew say the rest were "cool". works for me. my biggest gripe is just the overall play-ability of this thing. it's too big for a kid to do any meaningful "swoooshing". I would assume that most kids would sit this thing on the floor and act out scenes inside the ship. Most lego sets when I grew up had pretty detailed play areas for just that. This ship has hardly any. You get an opening cockpit, which seats one figure and is barren. (if lego has gone the sticker route, they could have thrown in some little computer readout stickers to spice up the cockpit) we used some pieces from other sets to mod it a bit, but thats not the point. The escape pod was also very bland, though, the launching mechanism was cool (switch on side of ship) and it does hold 5 guys, so I'll give it that. The interior rooms were both my nephews and I's biggest disillusionment, there is nothing for the figs to do. on the starboard side, you have a little briefing room, which can barely hold two figures, and they cannot stand. it's far to small to act out any sort of scenario or have an adventure in. on the port side, you have a storage room, which is half filled with a bomb dropping mechanism, and then a container to hold some of the troopers gear, you can maybe have one trooper crammed inside, again, too small of an area for any meaningful play. there is an additional rear gunners station close to the center engine, but again, you put the guy in, and take the guy out, thats it. It has rotating turrets on the outside of the ship, some flick fire missiles, retractable landing gear and dropping bombs, so it does do alot, it's just the size of the ship, you can't fly it around alot. this Is why I'm giving it low marks overall. I will say it looks Impressive on a shelf though.

Pro's: Will dominate your star wars lego shelf due to it's size

Solid build, will not crumble in your hands, you can touch it.

decent assortment of figures to crew your mighty ship. (was told that several of these figs are only offered with this set)

Con's: Almost no interior play-ability

Stickers, not printed on bricks. Have no clue how long stickers will last.

It's size is also a con, it will be hard for a kid to fly this around.

Hope this helps. my final call is to cough up the extra money and buy the millennium falcon. Though I guess this would be a good display piece for star wars lego collectors.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not fragile if assembled correctly August 23, 2012

I purchased this toy for myself and my three young boys. It's a great ship that is quite sturdy. I had read the reviews that mentioned it falling apart easily but decided to purchase anyway as other reviews said it was sturdy.

There is a point in construction where you have to slide a few pins through to hold different sections of the ship together. This isn't clearly marked (or perhaps even marked at all) in the instructions. With the pins through, the ship will stay together quite nicely. It could easily be hung from the ceiling by it's holder or "flow" around by a child. Without the pins pushed through it will come apart with play.

I hope that helps.
