"As an AFOL returning to LEGO after decades in the dark ages, I immediately gravitated towards this build. It had everything the young LEGO die-hard in me wanted- a novel, compact, space-themed build with plenty of playability. I have always loved LEGO vehicles, and this one ranks waaaay up there. I especially liked the attention paid to making the inside features accessible with a removable front, cool side hatch, and a liftoff back portion. The minfig is excellent, and I love the addition of the alien creature. I think between the quality aesthetic of the rover, minifig, and classic creator-styled creature build its the best 3-1 I've come across. The alt builds are also pretty good, and the price is nearly impossible to beat considering the quantity and selection of great pieces. I can't see how anyone, even the most particular LEGO connoisseur, could be disappointed in this set."
