"After watching an episode of The Clone Wars a day, I was really telling myself how nice Anakin's starfighter was, and how much I would like to have it in LEGO. I went to the LEGO store and bam! there it was! and for a pretty reasonable price! so I got it and built it the day after.
It is bigger than expected, and it is just beautiful. I like the double expression-ed face for Anakin's minifigure and the shiny top on R2.
I am a little puzzled by the playability inasmuch as, maybe because of my big adult hands, it's a little hard to hold the starfighter and "make it fly" without grabbing (and removing) the engines, and it feels awkward to hold it by the tail.
