Like all of the bigger collector edition models are of their respective ships, this is a very good representation of the snow speeder. It didn't take all that long to put together, either. It now sits very stably on the top of my desk, next to where the Star Destroyer USED to sit before being knocked off by a closing door one too many times. (It didn't get hit; the vibrations in the floor were enough.)

The durability of this model stands in stark contrast to all of the other models, except for maybe the Naboo Fighter. This thing is built like a brick, which I suppose is understandable given its size and shape. It doesn't have thin, folding wings like the X-wing, and it is far less volumnous than the Star Destroyer. This wasn't near the top of my list, but since I already had all the others, it was a welcome addition.

I loved my Legos as a child. I've rediscovered them as an adult. Mainly the Ultimate Collector Series, or the high-end models. I enjoyed this build. It took me a couple of days to complete. It wasn't too repetative, (my only complaint about the Ultimate Star Destroyer and Ultimate Death Star II.) This set was pretty expensive, but I opted for "new, in factory sealed box." There were cheaper ones available. The completed Snowspeeder has fine detail and feels pretty sturdy. Keep in mind that this is more a model than a toy.
