 Exciting build, fun ship, but be careful!Sep 28, 2008
By Chris Kane
My (almost) 9-year old grandson (an expert Legos man) built this set in a few hours. Building the ship requires careful attention to detail as it is easy to make mistakes. An example would be installation of the engines: If the wing extension pistons are not fully closed (retracted) when snapping the engines in place, then the wings will not deploy properly requiring some disassembly. But, that's where the educational part comes in. One negative note: The wings are heavy and are not adequately secured to the wing roots. The wing root pins insert into two bushing pieces that do not have sufficient attachment/adhesion area to hold the heavy wings on the ship during anything more than careful play. Boooo! Would buy this set again? Yes! Advice: But, buy this set ONLY for older Legos builders more interested in the building phase than the play phase.

 Great Set!Oct 19, 2008
By A. Lawson
"Angellos"
Of all the Lego Star Wars sets I own, this is the best by far.
Pros,
I love how the landing gear come down and the wings go up in synchronized motion. Very fun set to play with, semi-challenging to build.
Cons,
The wing-mounted missile launchers don't shoot very far. It's a bit pricey for what you get.
All in all, I think this set is worth $45, not $55. But still a must have for all LEGO Star Wars fans!

 V-19 TorrentNov 17, 2008

Good fun to assemble, but a bit fragile when it's together. Very clever mechanism.

Great Lego setFeb 24, 2009
By Barbie Smith
My son and I had a lot of fun building this toy. He loves building with Lego's. While this one was a little more challenging, when you are done, it is worth the extra effort. It has gears so the wings fold up and down with the center piece when it goes up or down. The only reason I gave it 3 stars for durability is because it is a Lego set, so you do have to be more careful with it. I feel that it was well worth the cost. You won't be disappointed.

A good challenge for a 9-year-old Lego builder with some experienceDec 29, 2009
By N. Krumpe
This topped my son's Christmas list this year. He's put together more than his fair share of Lego sets, and really wanted this one next. Typically, we leave him on his own to do all the building, and he checks in with us once in a while to show his progress. This time, however, he actually needed a little help.
As another reviewer noted, there are some details that are easy to overlook when putting this together. The place where my son hit a snag was when adding the wings. The diagrams in the manual DO indicate that the pistons are closed when adding the wings, but this fact really ought to be emphasized. Because he overlooked this detail when putting it together, he and I had about 15 minutes of backtracking to figure out exactly what went wrong.
It was a good learning experience...frustration is an important part of solving problems. I just think it's worth pointing out that this is one of the first Lego sets where he experienced that kind of frustration.
