My seven year old son, and my husband, love this toy. It is larger than expected and lots of fun! It is very sturdy - we have had no problems with parts falling off. The one downside is that no figure is included, but my son found the right one for it in his collection.

We purchased several Clone Wars vehicles and action figures for our 2 boys aged 6 and 8 1/2. The Torrent Starfighter is quite sturdy and we were pleased to see that the age limit starting at 4yrs is accurate. Of everything that we bought this piece is the sturdiest. We bought the Walker and it is junk. The V-WING Fighter is in between the two. The action figures are ALL flimsy. Their hands come off and are lost and they are weak flimsy plastic... not durable. BUT back to the Starfighter... If your child must have some of this collection then go with this vehicle, it will hold up the best.

Purchased this for my son's 6th birthday. The bottom line is he loves it and hasn't complained or lost interest in the toy yet. Its highly posable between the 3 moving wings, has a solid sturdy base (more on that), and the little fold-down landing feet are a nice touch. So 4-stars because it does the job as a toy and he's happy.

My personal opinion is more like 2.5 or 3 stars. The rear engine pods and the middle wing fall off constantly. Everything snaps back on but its annoying. On the middle wing especially, since the ball joint it pivots on is looser than the clip on the bottom that it locks into, so each time you try to swing it into the down (flying) position it pops out of joint as you try to secure it. Also there is no figure included, minor nit-pick but throwing in a generic clone trooper would have been nice.

Bought this for my 10-year old Star Wars fanatic. He loves it, and that's good enough for me.

My sons recently recieved several peices from this series and all have peices that have to be put together and then they jus fall off during play. My sons are 7 and 5. It is neat to have the vehicles for the little Star Wars but all you end up with is chuncks of the vehecles all over the house and a box of toy parts that need to be reassembled every time the kids want to play. Doesn't anyone make real toys that are not disposable anymore?
