"The battle of Takodana was the first non vehicle based build I have done, and I really enjoyed it. While the MSPR was a bit high for what you get, you can generally find this set on sale. It comes with 5 mini figures (Finn, Maas, Kylo and a couple of stormtroopers, including TR-8R!) and these figures are really well sculpted. The set itself has quite a few play features, including a falling tree, a collapsible wall and a hidden lightsaber that call out with the the force and shows you the best parts of all the movies when you touch it! I really enjoyed posing the figures to remake scenes from the movie, although I have to say I was disappointed when the set named the Battle of Takodana did not contain a single taco! I like to refer to this set as "Finn runs into his old squadmates; hillarity ensues! All and all, a fun set, but a bit on the pricey side. I'd recommend it for the play and collectors value."

A really great set
"As a fan of the First Order/Empire, this set is a must have. The build experience was really good as the instructions were clear and there were no hidden gotchas. I really though the crew pit and the control panels in the interior were a nice touch to display minifigures. Speaking of minifigures, this set comes with the exclusive Snoke minifigure and a Shuttle pilot which are really cool. The only reservation I would have on this set was the fact that when you close it up, there is a noticeable gap between the two side plates down the middle. A minor thing in the grand scheme of it. I loved building this set and would recommend it. The value for money was good considering it is a licensed product."
