" I would say that this is probably my least favorite Star Wars Lego set. I'm just not a big fan of the speeder itself. It does look like the speeder in the cartoon. I usually like the snow environment items (check my reviews of all the Hoth based sets) which is why I needed to get the "cool" Anakin in snow gear and Thi-Sen, the Talz Chief. Both of these minifigs are awesome. I love how Anakin has a dual face. One side with goggles and one normal. The hood also comes off and he has his lightsaber. Thi-Sen has a very detailed head/torso piece (kinda like Chewbacca) complete with spikes and backpack. His spear is also very cool. I will say that the speeder is very sturdy and well put together.
Pros:
Anakin in snow gear
Thi-Sen
Sturdy ship and bigger than expected
Cons:
Look of ship is just OK
Too many stickers
Would've been better with more minifigs. A Captain Rex in snow gear or any of the Pantorans such as Senator Chuchi would've been great!! "

" I really like this Starfighter. So far, I have PloKoon's and Ahsoka's ships. I think the white and blue colors on this ship are really awesome. The ejecting mechanism works like a champion and really flips PloKoon pretty far. PloKoon has a rubberized mask and is well detailed. His lightsaber clips onto the outside of the ship. R7-D4 is white and maroon. The droid fits into the ship unlike the V-wing. The build was pretty easy. Of course there were a couple stickers that are annoying. Overall, this is a very fun and enjoyable set!
Pros:
PloKoon
R7-D4
Colors of ship
Ejecting seat works great
Place for R7 on ship
Cons:
Stickers
Similar design to past starfighters "

" And the winner is you for buying this awesome Ninjago set. The minifigs of Jay (blue ninja) and Chopov are excellent. Chopov has armor, his awesome war helmet, and a bone axe. Jay has his nunchucks and sword. The details on the minifigs are extremely nice. This was the final set I needed to get the four main characters on both sides. The Motorbike is sweet. It is bigger than I expected and is very sturdy. The flames are awesome as is the skull that flips down to smack whatever is in its way. The bike also has a few purple elements that help the overall look of it. The stickers with the logo on both sides of the bike look good too. A great buy for all that you receive.
Pros:
Jay
Chopov
Chopov's helmet, armor, and battle axe
Nunchucks of lightning and black sword
Skull Motorbike
Size, colors, and details of bike
Swatting feature of skull head "

" I think the names for the skeletons are awesome!! Bonezai, Krazi, Frackjaw, Nuckal. All very clever!! Anyway, in this smaller set, you receive a Kai (Red Ninja) and Bonezai the skeleton. This set also offers a well designed minifig launcher, a golden scythe, and other weapons and accessories. Kai is very well designed in his red ninja robes. No armor for Bonezai as there is with the spinner. All in all a very nice set. This is an inexpensive way to get two minifigs from the Ninjago line.
Pros:
Kai
Bonezai
Golden Scythe
Minifig launcher
Other weapons
Cons:
No hat or armor for Bonezai "

" Cole is the leader of the spinjitsu ninjas just like Leonardo from the TMNT. This set is quite small, but it packs a nice punch. You get Cole, the target, 5 weapons, a weapons holder display, and a scorpion. Cole is pretty cool. He comes in his black outfit. A nice way to start your Ninjago collection of ninjas.
Pros:
Very inexpensive set
Cool Cole Minifig
Many weapons for spinner battling
Nice target
Con:
No skeleton enemy included "

" I bought the Nuckal spinner because I liked the bigger size of his head. The spikes going down the back of his head and the eye patch are nice added details. The armor is also well designed and colored. The weapons are extremely cool too. The double bladed axe, sword, and "shoge" show a nice range of weapons. The silver and blue spinner looks good.

Nuckal
Silver and blue spinner

" Krazi was the first spinner I got from the Ninjago line. I was quite impressed with his design and colors. The face is especially cool with its eyes and clown mouth. The armor is also very cool. I was surprised that his hat was not included with the spinner. Luckily, I had an extra Jester hat from the Kingdoms line that I used as a substitute. Wrong color pattern, but close enough!! I also like his weapon assortment. The golden bone and the dual bladed weapon are really cool. He comes with a black spinner. The skeletons seem to fall out of the spinners faster than the ninjas.

Krazi Skeleton
Black Spinner
Armor

Detailed face

No hat

" I was excited to get this spinner set because I really wanted the Nya Ninja minifig. She is very detailed and comes with two sais and a staff. She also has a double printed face. One side is a smirk and the other has a mask covering the bottom portion of her face. The sais are very cool. They are black lightsaber hilts with golden sai blades. Her spinner is a nice orange color. Overall, a well designed minifig and spinner.
Pros:
Nya
2 sais
Orange spinner
Character cards
Dual sided head
Con:
Price. I think the spinners are overpriced for what comes with them. "

" This is a cool set from Cars 2. I was surprised by how big the boat is in this set. I like that the boat has an area for Professor Z to park on. I was disappointed that the round tile of a lifebuoy is a sticker and not a printed piece. Prof Z is a clunker car in the movie, but is a great Lego car. The magnifying glass as a monical is classic!! Finally, Finn McMissle is nice too. I like the side fins and propeller added to the car. These are easily removed for when not in the ocean/water. The 2 buoys are added accessories that help improve the look of the set. They wooble like a "weeble wooble" would. (Try saying that 3 times fast) The build was pretty easy. Not sure if the boat floats. It looks like it might, but that's just speculation. Again, this is a very nice set.
Pros:
Big boat
Professor Z
Finn McMissle
2 buoys
Printed pieces on the cars
Cons:
Stickers and not printed pieces on the boat
It would've been cool if the crab fishing boat (The Northwestern) was included in this set. "

" ...that got me interested in Harry Potter. When I bought this set last October, I didn't know Dobby from Creature, who was this Malfoy character, or what in the world was a Death Eater?!? I had to ask my nephew why there was a Lucius and a Draco Malfoy so he explained the difference to me. Since then I have read all the books, watched all the movies, AND bought most of the new Harry Potter Lego sets!!! So, thank you Lego for making an inexpensive set that I bought to increase my minifig collection and bringing me into the World of Harry Potter!!
This is very well designed for such a little set. The archway with the "blast function" is really cool. By pushing the lever on the back, it really does send the minifig in front flying across the table. The minifigs are top notch. Harry is in his Griffindor outfit. Lucius looks good in his black outfit and has a dual printed face with his death eater mask on the other side. I also like his long blond hair piece. Finally Dobby is also really good. I like that his facial features are painted. It makes him look so much better than the older version.
Pros:
Harry Potter
Lucius Malfoy
Dobby
Archway and accessories (broomstick, spiders, book, and sock)
Blasting Function
Cons:
Death Eater mask is kinda small "
