my 7 year old grandson't favorite christmas present MY grandson says this was the best present he got this year. He plays with it all the time.
nice toy for kids My 8 yr old son was able to assemble the toy with patience. It made him concentrate, and he felt good having completed putting it together himself. He likes firing the torpedo around the house. Cool toy.
Great for the wow factor My 8-year-old son enjoyed putting this together with help. If it falls, it would easily break apart, but when held, it stays together well. The directions were very clear and straighforward. Overall, a great toy. When he's tired of creating that specific plane, the pieces will be very adaptable to making his own original creations.
Prone to breaking... My son got this as as birthday present, and it is very cool looking. He put it together with some help, and it just wouldn't stay together very well. His dad, who has loved and collected legos for years, tried to reinforce the design with additional pieces. That didn't even help. I have read the other reviews suggesting that the design is durable, but the wings collapsed on my son's when he tried to put people into the cockpit. Despite this, we have rebuilt the ship at least 6 times because it is wonderful visual design, very slick looking.
Incredibly cool and a guaranteed kid pleaser This beautiful starfighter jet? spaceship? never fails to elicit comments about its coolness or awesomeness from young visitors to our house. It was the first of my son's lego birthday presents that he assembled. He treasures this toy and takes great pains to make sure it doesn't get destroyed or broken or mixed up in the general lego bin. But even if it were to get mixed in, the bright yellow color should make it easier to find the needed pieces if my son ever wished to rebuild it.
The starfighter is pretty durable too. It has been dropped several times and it is either undamaged or breaks in an easily fixable way - no shattered lego pieces strewn across the floor.
It also comes with R2D2, a couple of people (I think one is Anakin), and a smaller fighter ship, so the set provides enough extras for lots of imaginative play.
