If I touch someone, I can feel there feelings
" The Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 Ravager attack is a great little small set. You have three awesome exclusive minifigures, two of which are completely exclusive characters, and they all have awesome molds and prints. I love Rocket's new face print, Mantis's hair antenna combo piece, which is actually made of that harder rubber material, and Taser Face's hair piece which I believe is a new mold. The builds aren't anything amazing, but in my opinion they get the job done. The Ravager ship it self is a little bare bones looking, but I like it in the fact that it's basically a mini red Milano. It actually contains four stud shooters, as well as a cockpit for Taser Face. The little side build is okay. You get a little tree, a stud shooter canon, and a piece of the Milano which must have crashed down in the forest. They're all actually their own separate builds but they can be attached thanks to a clip and ball joint. Something to note is other than the stud shooters, there's not a whole lot of play value in the set, but you do get a LOT of stud shooters so I don't mind personally. Overall, I think this set is very solid for only $20 and will be a great start to the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 wave, or just a flat out good addition to any Mavel fan's collection.

Come catch your greatest enemy!
" The Joker Brick Head is probably the best one of the wave as I personally think it has the most to offer in terms of a wide range audience. Kids will have fun with it and play with it regardless, but I think adults and teens will like it because of how detailed this design is. I mean, how they did the hair is incredible. They capture it almost perfectly in this brick built form, and that alone really makes the set. If you aren't into Brick Headz, like many people, this is still a nice parts pack for only $10. You get some purple bricks, which is a pretty uncommon color, and also some nice unique prints for the Joker's outfit. Obviously, this isn't meant for play, which is why I rate it so low for play value, but I think it's very solid for what it is.

A Peeeeerrrrrrrfect set
" The cat woman cat cycle chase is one of the best Lego Batman Movie sets! You get a really cool build, along with three awesome minifigures: Robin, Batgirl, and Cat Woman. Those three are very well done minifigures with incredible printing, and this is currently the easiest and cheapest way to get them. As for the builds, the motor cycle is pretty average but is still pretty good compared to other bikes in Lego form. The diamond shop however is awesome. It's very small, but it includes a display window for a couple of the jewels as well as some other cool little details. The lightpost right outside the shop can be knocked down to to stop Cat Woman from getting away, which is actually the only play feature of the set. Sure, that fact is a little lame, but the three awesome minifigs and diamond shop build make up for it. While the part to pace ratio isn't exactly on point, I still think this set is worth it. Because what Lego did give us is very well done. Definitely a win for me personally!

Great set! Great deal!
" I went to the Lego store June 1st to pick up a new star wars set from the summer wave. Picked up this one, and I do not regret doing so at all!! This is a great set, with 363 pieces for $30, right around the ten cents per piece mark. Great figs and features as well!
Narre
Narre is a very detailed mini figure with printing on both sides of the torso and legs. She has a nice black hair piece, a double sided face, a cape, a blue hood, and a red lightsaber- the same one that Ventress has.
Dengar
Denar looks fantastic! Great torso print on the front and back! Very detailed, and cool with his face, top bandage piece, and backpack. He also comes with a blaster rifle.
Dengar's speeder
Dengar's speeder is a great addition to this set! Love the look of it! You can easily sit him down to pilot it, and there's even a place for his weapon!
The Eclipse Fighter
The fighter itself looks awesome! It's got a great black and red vibe to it, with lots of cool features! Such as being able to transfer it back and fourth from landing mode to flight mode by pushing the front of the ship. There's also a place for Narre's lightsaber and it's towards the bottom of the ship, so that's great! You can seat her in the cockpit, and fire the spring loaded shooters. Overall, very cool straighter. Loved the build especially!
Conclusion
Like I said before, love this set! It's has the perfect price, great minifigs, and a really fun build that turns into an awesome set! The only bad thing I have to say is that sometimes, if you're not careful enough, some of the front pieces can fall off. But other than that.......

"You just started a war!"
" I was soooo excited to finally get this set. I have been anticipating this for months, and let me tell you, it doesn't disappoint! This is such a great set with perfect balance of play features, appearance, and value. It's an $80 set which is a lot of money, but it's so worth it! Let's get into why.
Minifigures
This set comes with so many awesome figs. Can't believe we're getting these all characters in one set!
Captain America
Cap's minifig is pretty cool. He is the same variant from the age of ultra sets, which was a little disappointing. Even if we had to get the same suit, it would've been nice to put a different expression on his face. Not one of my favorites in the set, but still a pretty good minifigure
Iron Man
While I am totally team Cap for the film, I have to say Iron Man's fig is much better than Cap's in this set. The print on his suit is accurate to the new one in the Civil War film, and it's such detailed print! He has great detailing on his legs, and the front and back of the torso. He comes with same transparent blue pieces we always have gotten him with, but this time he also has some pieces to represent his laser beam, and I think this is a really cool and all done addition. The mask is the same mold we've always had, and the face is the same one from the first avengers line up back in 2012. Tony, while I love your fig, you're going down in the movie! ;)
Winter Soldier aka Bucky Barnes
Winter soldier is a great fig! Same one you get in the Black Panther set, but still, awesome fig. He has some nice torso printing, and great printing on his metal arm! It's an update from the winter soldier poly bag we got about a year ago. It has the red star, and lots of other detail. Unfortunately, no leg print, but that's okay. He also comes with the same face as Star Lord, who has a double sided face. One smirking, the other looking as if he's ready to fight. He also comes with an Alien Conquest pistol.
War Machine
War Machine is one of my favorites of the set! His suit is an update from the last one to match his civil war appearance. Much of the suit is black, which is accurate to the film. He has lots of great detail on his legs, torso, and also has an expansion on his back. Part of that expansion is a stud shooter to represent his machine gun type weapon on his shoulder, which I think is cool. It looks way better than sticking it in someone's hand and making it a blaster. His mask has also been updated, and now has red eyes, which again are accurate to the movie. Unfortunately, he does have the same face as Cyborg from the DC Comic's line, but that's not a huge problem for me. Love this fig!
Agent 13 aka Sharon Carter
Sharon Carter is a pretty great fig! She has some nice detail on her torso, and if I'm not mistaken, a new hair piece. While this hair piece looks cool and is ver useful, it's not accurate to the new movie. If this figure would've been in a Winter Solider line up, it would've been perfect, however in this one, her hair is more straight. The whole figure in general, would be almost perfect if you stuck it in a Winter Soldier line up, but not for a civil war line up. So, great fig! Just wish it represented her from Civil War batter. Guess it'd be good for a Winter Soldier moc though.
Scarlett Witch
Scarlett Witch is also one of my favorites in this set! We have gotten her before in the Age of Ultron line up, and that version of her was accurate for that movie, as is this variant. This time around, she looks more like a super hero with her fancy red jacket and a red skirt that comes with the figure. Love this fig! So accurate to the film. He air piece had also been updated to suit her new look, and she also has the same face she has in the Age of Ultron line up. Love this fig!
Ant-Man (and) (or) Giant Man.
While this mini figure isn't really a mini figure, I love him! He's my favorite of the set, especially since you get his micro version and his giant version. Great to finally get a micro Ant Man in Lego, or should i say two? The set does come with an extra which I think is awesome! But then there's GIANT MAN. Love this guy. There is an actual build for this guy, and it's so much fun! It's like building a statue of a mini figure. The legs and arms move just like a minifig, except the arms can also be put in positions that regular Lego arms can't I hope people will agree with me on the fact that I would love to get a series of these giant figs! Its so great! Any ways, both his micro version and his giant version are accurate to his civil war appearance. On the giant one, you can actually remove part of his mask to see his face. This guys is awesome! I almost love him as much as I do the actual character!
The Airport
Now onto the build. First up, we've got the airport control tower. Great fun build, and also has lots of cool play features. It comes with three individual floors that you can access from the inside. Each one has a function. The first floor, you can take Ant-Man's micro version and stick him in a little hole. Push him forward, and it will cause a technic piece to pop out on the other side of the wall, causing a stack of boxes to go flying. This is supposed to represent Ant-Man crawling through a small hole before he rams into the stack of boxes to come out the other side. Really cool feature! On the second floor, we have something that's common for a lot of these super hero sets but still really cool. You can pop out the wall in two separate pieces, as if Iron Man's just flown through it or something. Then on the third floor, there's a single seat that can spin a full 360 degrees. You can sit a figure down in this seat, and have them operate all the computers up there, along with looking down at the battle going on below through the glass. Pretty cool tower. The second build is a rather small one, but still cool. You get a small vehicle, you know, those things that carry the luggage. I apologize, as their name is currently escaping me, but this is a nice edition to the set. It has a play feature which will allow all the suit cases on the vehicle to go flying if you push a certain piece down. Also, it's made out of two cars. One in front for the driver, and the other behind them for the suit cases.
The Quinn Jet
While this Quinn Jet is the smallest we've gotten, i'm still really liking it as it's my first one! It does look extremely similar to the one we got in the AOU line up, but still really love it! It doesn't have much interior space, but it has a cockpit that can sit two minifigs, or so you think until you buy the set. The box shows that you can seat Bucky and Cap in the cockpit together, but you kinda have to jam them in to make them both fit. This was kind of disappointing, but not a huge issue. There's also a ramp that can descend down with a rope, that will allow Cap to hang from the jet. Overall, cool vehicle! I know most people are displeased because it's small, but if they'd made it bigger, it probably would've cost more. So I really don't mind.
Conclusion
So there you have it! I know this was a long review, but hopefully this gave you one insight on whether or not you wanna buy the set. I will say,it comes with several stickers which I know a lot of Lego fan's dislike. I'm pretty sure every detail though is a sticker, so just a quick warning and heads up. But overall, this set is so worth your money! You get 6 super hero figs all in one set! That's crazy. The build is great, with the hilight being Giant Man. The set is $80, and for 807 pieces, that's right around the ten cents per piece mark. But I think that does it. Theres no way I could recommend this to you any more, so I'm just gonna say........

First Order Snow Speeder
" This set was great! It was my second TFA set, and I was really excited to open it up and such. Now, even though I had good expectations for this, it came out better than I thought it would! And I really loved the figs and the speeder more than I thought I would. Cause if you think about it, this is probably the most non iconic set in the Force Awakens line up, you have the falcon and the tie fighter and the X-Wing and such. But this set is definitely one of the best in the line up. Lets get started with this review
First Order Snowspeeder
The build for the speeder is easy, but fun. And it is good practice for any newcomers to Lego. You do get a decent amount of play features, including rapid fire stud shooters, which I had a lot of fun with, a turret in the front that you can maneuver and turn, and an aree where someone can sit and someone can pilot. Overall, great build and ship to add to your lego star wars collection! There is also a crate to hold all the extra studs for the stud shooters, which I thought that was a smart move.

Minifigures
The officer, and the other troopers, are very, very detailed! Their legs, torso front or back you name it! These guys have amazing print. They also each come with blasters, the officer having a different one than the other troops, and a small piece you can attach to the back of them for their backpacks. They're all basically the same, except for the officer's indicator that he is an officer. But who wouldn't want three great troopers to be apart of their first order army?

Okay, should you go buy this set? ABSOLUTELY. The value is good for $40 and 444pieces, right around the ten cent mark! This set is also great for anyone who is trying to make an army of first order troopers, cause you get a speeder to add to your navy and three awesome troops! So go out and spend your money! You won't regret it!

I''m calling in Veronica
" I have been a Marvel fan for years now, and out of every single set every released for the franchise, this is definitely one of the best and most awesome! In fact, I had to go to more than one store to find it, and I was lucky enough to arrive at Target right as they were opening a new shipment of them. A person who worked at the Lego Store said it was currently, at the time, the most popular super hero set.
HulkBuster
Hulk buster is awesome! Period. The build is really fun and enjoyable with attaching the joints and stuff. He has a lot of cool pieces, including a nicely printed helmet. You can also open the suit up and stand the iron man minifig inside without any trouble. The helmet and body close up, and he fits perfectly inside. The set also comes with some sort of technology belonging to Stark that is built to restrain the Hulk. The Hulk Buster is also full of playability, such as stud shooters on his wrist.
Minifigures
Iron Man-The new Iron Man Mark 43 armor is very detailed, with great print. The helmet is the same function as it's been for the past few years, and the head piece is actually the same one from the Avengers line up of sets. It's a double sided face with a smirk on one side, and an aggressive face on the other. Over all, 9 out of 10 for this fig
Hulk-The new Hulk fig is great! Much better than the one in the first Avengers line up. Not that the first one wasn't cool, but this one was improved in a big way. They changed the skin color to more of an olivish green, which looks more accurate to the movie. Plus they changed the pants to purple, and added some small avengers logos on each side of them-really appreciated that detail. 9.5 out of 10 for this awesome fig
Ultron-Even though Ultron is cool, he has one major flaw in this specific set. He does't have the cool head piece to go on top of the head like the one in the quintet, which makes no sense to me. That being said, I really think the printing on the torso, face, and legs are really detailed and accurate. Probably 7 out of 10 for this one, mainly because of the head piece not being included.
Scarlett Witch- Scarlett Witch is a very cool fig and edition to this set. She comes with some sort of lightning pieces that are supposed to be her using her powers. But the torso printing is very accurate, and detailed. She also has a double sided face. One is a simple smile, and the other is more aggressive with red eyes. For this fig, I'll do a 9.
Okay, so overall, great set. I think $30 for the hulk buster and four awesome figs is beyond worth it! If you are a marvel fan, then you will love this set! Every super hero fan will!

A good addition to your Lego Star Wars collection
" I was really excited about this set, because it was the first one I got from The Force Awakens line up. I opened it up and built it, loving the color scheme and such. Lego did do a great job on remaking the X-Wing to look just like the one in the movie. The play features were pretty much your average X-Wing design, the wings you can fold into attack position, the retractable landing gear, and the spring loaded shooters on each wing. There is also a space for BB-8 just like there was for Artoo in the previous X-Wing. What I also like, is that in addition to the X-Wing, you also get a ladder for Poe Dameron so he can climb up and into the cockpit, plus a small transport that takes pilots to their ships. The transport has a crate in the back that can hold weapons, inside or outside by claw pieces. There is also a driver's seat, where you can sit the mechanic, and a passenger seat, that can seat a pilot.
The minifigs in this set are great. You get Poe Dameron, who is currently exclusive to this set. The face resembles Oscar Isaac very well, and the torso has insanely detailed printing, along with the legs. His helmet is such a cool new piece, as it and the visor are attached, rather than having the visor be printed on the face. BB-8 was who I was most looking forward to. When I opened him up and built him, I thought to myself, man this is really small. But when you put it next to another fig, the size looks just right. He consists of two pieces, one being his ball shaped body, and the other being his head. He has great printing, and is probably the most desirable fig for me out of this set. He does have a stud on the bottom of his body, and I could have honestly done without that, but he's overall a great fig. Next up is the standard X-Wing pilot, who has very detailed printing on the torso and legs, just like poe. He also has the same helmet piece, but with a different color and design. His face is a face that had apparently been used multiple times for random characters in the force awakens line up, so some people may have a problem with that. But if you get this set and you're just happening to collect as many pilots as you can to make a squadron or something, than this fig is a nice bonus too the set. The final fig is the mechanic. He's an alien, a really cool looking alien I might add. His printing on the head and torso is really nice and he has a hat, or something. But over all, really cool fig.
The build for newcomers might be a little challenging, but for most Lego fans this is easy. Either way, nice fun build. The X-Wing and the small transport.
So this is a good set. Good line up of minifigs, and a cool fighter. However, the show stopper here is the price. $80 is a lot, and I think you should only spend it on a set if it has good value. If it's an awesome set, than sure, why not pay $80. But you don't get nearly enough in my opinion. This set for me is at LEAST $20 over priced. 60 or even 50 would've been way more acceptable. So I'm gonna say, if you don't have a lego X-Wing and you really want one badly, then I think this would be a good set for you to get. But if you have one of the previous X-Wings, I would pass on this set. And if you really want the figs, then I'd go to Ebay. So, only if they don't have an X-Wing and really want one......... "

One of the best Marvel sets to date!
" As a huge Marvel fan, I was beyond excited to go to the Lego store and find out that the Captain America Civil War line up of sets had just been released that very day. I decided to pick up this set, The Black Panther Pursuit. This set is so awesome, and so worth the thirty dollars, plus more! You get three vehicles! The hi light being black panthers jet, which looks so cool! As the movie hasn't come out yet, I can't describe how accurate it is to the actual one in the film, but I can say the color scheme is awesome! It seems just right for Black Panther. It also has two small stud shooters on the bottom, which I think are nice, because as cool as the play feature is, sticking them on the wings of a ship can look kinda weird. Not in this set, as they were kinda hidden at the bottom, but it is still extremely easy to fire them.The next vehicle you get is Captain America's blue jeep. Really like the bright blue color scheme, and the space it has. There is room for a minfig to two to stand in the back, and just enough room for Cap in the driver's seat. There is also a spring loaded shooter, only the one, that is kind of hidden in with the front, which I think a lot of people will appreciate. You can trigger it from the driver's seat, therefore if you have Cap driving with his shield in one hand, you can push his shield down to fire the shooter. That is the shown play feature on the box. Finally, Bucky, aka, The Winter Soldier's bike. It doesn't even consist of ten pieces, and is very simple. Your average small lego bike, but it was defiantly a nice edition
As much as I love the vehicles, I have to say the minifigs are the main highlight of this set. We get Cap And Bucky in the same set! Plus Black Panter! Can't get much better than that! Cap is really cool. He is the same minifig from the Age Of Ultron line up, but that's not legos fault. His unifrom is the same in the movie, so they're being accurate. But I don't mind that fact because I didn't get one of the new Caps from the AOU line up, so I was really happy about this fig. Next up, Bucky, who I really appreciated because of the amount of detail we get on his metallic arm. He has some cool torso printing on the back and front, and comes with a small pistol. Next up, who I'm guessing will be the most anticipated figure in this set fora lot of people, black panther. This minifig does not have any leg printing, none of em do. But for what lacks in the legs, Lego easily makes up for in the head and torso printing! He's such a detailed mining, so I can't complain at all about the legs! He also has two head pieces, the normal lego head, plus the one that goes on top, just like Darth Maul, only this time it's hard and not rubber, which I really like. Overall, some of the best figs for marvel or any line up ever! They're going to be some of the most loved in my collection for years to come!
The build of this set is really a fun and easy build. The jet and jeep were both fun, but for die hard lego fans like me, it's a piece of cake. But who cares, it's a great fun build!
If you're a Marvel fan, you will love this set! If you are at the Lego store by any chance one day, I would definitely choose this over the Crossbones set. The extra ten dollars is beyond worth it, because you're paying just a little bit more for a far better set! "

A great original trilogy set!
" This set is really great! We finally have gotten another cloud city set for the first time in YEARS. And even though people may have hoped it would've been bigger, I think Lego nailed what we did get.
The set itself has a lot of cool play features, the highlight being the process of freezing Han in carbonite. There is also a mini platform that is supposed to serve as an elevator to take people up to the chamber, plus, below the actual chamber is supposed to be where Han and the others are kept in the movie. There is a small retractable bad you can control with a knob.
The minifigs are also one of the best values of the set. You get Han Solo, who has a double sided face, one looking nervous, the other with his mouth and eyes closed as he is about to go into the freezing chamber. You get Boba Fett, who has an incredible amount of detail and design, plus it's a great way to get him, cause he's in a cheap set for once! The final figure is an ugnaught, who I'm not sure if we've gotten before in lego, but he is awesome! He has a new and unique head mold, plus great printing that really makes him extremely accurate to the ones in the movie. The carbonate piece is also very detailed. The molded outline of Han has the exact same printing as the figure, and again, great opportunity to get this in a cheaper set!
Overall, I think if you are a fan of the original trilogy, you will love this set! Even if your just a star wars or lego fan in general, you will love this set! "
