" I received this set a while ago and just got around to building it now. I wish I hadn't waited so long!
This set is very pleasing to the eye. The structure was designed perfectly (and looks like it did in the film)! The minifigures are amazing. Qui Gon, Obi Wan and Darth Maul look like they did in the movie as well. I'm very happy they made another set with Darth Maul in it, he is a difficult minifigure to find.
The functions in this set are very fun. I love how Lego incorporated the red screens (that blocked the Jedis' path when they were trying to catch Darth Maul) and made it into a function. The red screens (which are more like bars in this set) open and close very smoothly. The other function, which is a catapult (which is from when Obi Wan leaps out of the pit), works very well, too.
This set is a great addition to any Star Wars fan's collection and I 100% recommend it.

Very Creative Minifigures
" I purchased one of these blindbags because the options looked cool and I absolutely LOVED the Lego Batman Movie!
I got "The Eraser" and I like it so much. It is a very creative character and I love the detail. It really makes the minifigure resemble a pencil.
I recommend this to anyone who liked the Lego Batman Movie, or wants some creative + unique minifigures to add to their collection.

Only Bought A Single Pen
" Before starting this review, I would like to point out that I only bought a singular pack of these pens (meaning I only bought one pen).
The pen I bought is red with red ink, and I use it as a correcting pen. And I love it! It is a good pen (the gel comes out evenly and does not blot up the paper).
The design of the pen is awesome, and even though it is square, it does not pose too much of a struggle to hold.
Overall, I loved my gel pen and I recommend it to any Lego lover/writer!

Only Built The T-Rex
" I received this set for my birthday, and I love it so much!
I was a fan of the Dino theme from a few years back, so when I saw this, I was very excited!
I only built the T-Rex, but it ITSELF has a ton of play/display and build value. The build is simple, but fun!
The T-Rex's joints can be posed very well, and it can stand by itself. It is very sturdy once built, and therefore can be played with w/o it breaking.
I completely recommend this set for anyone who is interested in dinosaurs!

Amazing Vehicle w/ Detailed Minifigures
" As soon as this set was released, I knew I HAD to have it (even though this is where my favorite character dies), and I'm extremely happy with my purchase! I did NOT purchase the previous version of this set, and I am only reviewing this version individually. :)
The sarlacc/sarlacc pit is a great inclusion. The tentacles, claws and chompers all look like they did in the movie. The eating function is perfect and very fun to use on poor Boba Fett.
The skiff itself is very impressive. The railing and plank pieces look great. The clear pieces supporting the skiff make it appear to be floating.
The minifigures in this set are the best! Han Solo's new hair mold is a lot more realistic. The skiff guard's face, torso and leg prints are very detailed. Boba Fett and Chewbacca stayed the same as in other sets, but still look good.
Overall, I love this set and can't find anything wrong with it. It has great build/design/play value! I highly recommend it to anyone who has an Episode 6 Lego collection, or just loves Star Wars in general!

My Favorite Villain Is Back... In His Car!
" I received this set as a birthday present (The Penguin is my favorite DC Comics character) after seeing The Lego Batman Movie (which was great) and I couldn't be more happy with how it turned out.
The build was fairly simple, but the amount of detail on the car makes it look very sophisticated (ex. the penguin head hood ornament). I'd definitely say there is a lot of play/display value because the car is very sturdy and the set also includes 2 minifigures (The Penguin and Batman).
My only complaint is: where are the penguins? Past The Penguin sets included small build-able penguins...

Great, This Book Is!
" This dictionary is an amazing purchase for Star Wars fans. The pages are full of fun facts and awesome pictures of Star Wars sets. All of the sets mentioned are retired, but it really shows how far Legos have come in term of detail.
Near the back of the book there is a minifigure section, as well as a "behind the scenes of Lego production" area. The effort Lego put into this book is evident, the pages/chapters are organized and show the development process of each set.
Lastly, the exclusive Luke Skywalker minifigure is so old-school, that it's impossible not to love.
I highly recommend this to any Star Wars fan who wants to extend their knowledge, or simply look at some cool pictures!

'Tis The Season For A Great Set
" I actually received this set last year, but only got around to building it this year, and it looks amazing as a table decoration. Although the set isn't the largest, the detail on the Legos make up for the slightly expensive price. Santa's sleigh and reindeer add more build/play value to this set and adds onto the display factor. The vivid colors makes it really fun and enjoyable to look at. The minifigures (Santa, Mrs. Claus and 4 elves), have incredible detail on their bodies and accessories. My only complaint is; why do they have angry faces? In my opinion, that is an addition that isn't necessary. Besides that, this set is flawless and I highly recommend it for those who need decoration or simply need to get in the holiday spirit. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

My First Episode I Set!
" I received this wonderful Star Wars set for Christmas and I must say, it's bigger than it appears on the box. The build isn't challenging in the slightest, but has lots of build/play value. The minifigures are a nice mixture of generic characters (plus Captain Tarpals). Their weapons aren't anything extraordinary, but their torso and pants designs are glossy and detailed. The speeder itself is very sturdy and compact, nothing is lose or wobbly. If you enjoy Star Wars, especially 'The Phantom Menace', then this is the perfect Lego set for you!

Wonderful Cloud City Set!
" At first, the only reason I wanted this set was because of the Boba Fett minifigure, since I didn't have one and well, he looks EPIC. But after building this set I realized just how much I loved the chamber, not just Boba. Let's start this review with the minifigures: Han Solo, Boba Fett, Han Solo in carbonite and Ugnaught. The Han Solo is of Han in his white shirt and brown pants, the exact outfit which he was frozen in (nice attention to detail, Lego). Boba Fett looks amazing compared to Lego's older version of his minifigure, with his jetpack, cape and rifle. This minifigure is the same one which is included with the Slave 1, so if you're JUST interested in the Boba Fett minifigure, buy this for cheaper instead. Ugnaught is currently exclusive to this set and Han in carbonite has amazing detail.
Let's move onto the chamber itself!
There is an elevating feature where minifigures can be lifted up to the top of the chamber. The function which allows users to "freeze" Han Solo, could use work. As others have mentioned, it would have been better if Han fell straight down, instead of backwards an THEN down. The console where Ugnaught works is a nice touch, especially for kids who want to play with the set. The stair cases color scheme matches the chamber perfectly. The set can be a bit unstable while building, but is sturdy once completed. Here is a list of pros and cons that I hope you find helpful.
Pros:
-Minifigures
-Staircase
-Color scheme
-Functions
-Console
Cons:
-Freezing function
-Unstable while building (sturdy once built)

Overall, I adore this set as it is the only Cloud City set currently available, it has amazing minifigures and simply looks wonderful! It fits well with any The Empire Strikes Back sets, and is an important part of any Lego Star Wars collection.
