This Is AWESOME addition to any Star Wars Lego Fan
" This toy though small is amoung one of my favorite Lego purchases and it is all thanks to the minifigures.
Minifigures: These are what really sell the set as the minifigures are unigue and totally awesome. The fact that we get four awesome minifigures in a battle pack is absolutely incredible when we would be paying 10-15$ for each of them. Each of them are well detailed, come with a weapon, and Lego even gave us a new minifigure, 4-LOM. Having just gotten the new Death Star, these guys look great with it and really add a cool Bounty Hunter feel to the set.
The Set: The set is very easy to build with no stickers so any Lego fan regardless of age and experience can totally build and have fun with this set. It is durable, can hold three of the four minfigures (it can hold four if you get creative), and it looks like a speeder that is desinged to do a lot of damage.
Complaints: My only two complaints are that I wish that Lego would stop using the stud shooters as weapons and used just normal blasters and that the speeder was able to hold all four minifigures. Both of these are fixes that anyone can remedy, but are just some things to keep in mind.
Final Thoughts: This set is an absolute must have because of how much it contains for the best price ever and will be a great addition to anyone's Star Wars Lego collection. Among all the battle packs I have bought, this one is definitely my favorite. "

An INCREDIBLE toy for any Star Wars Lego Fan!
" If you are a Star Wars fan who has been wanting to get the Death Star for some time, now is the time to do it! This toy is absolutely amazing and totally worth any Star Wars fan's money.
Minifigures: As much as I loved the set, the minifigures are what really appealed to me about this set. The level of detail that Lego put into it is fantastic. Between the new hair pieces for Han Solo and Grand Moff Tarkin, and the flexible capes for The Emperor, Darth Vader, and the royal guards, Lego did a great job with updating the minifigures. Also including a brand new droid, (the death star droid) which is an RA-7 unit was a great addition to the set, and is great replacement from the protocol droid from the original Death Star set. Finally, my favorite update that Lego did, was give Darth Vader a two piece helmet. It looks great, feels great, and is so much fun to react Vader's last words to his son when playing with the set.
The Set (building): In terms of building, it is not too difficult, but is challenging due to the very similar colors that are used which can be hard to decipher in the instructions to an untrained eye. Younger builders also may need help with the two string functions that have to be tied as it can be a bit tricky to thread the needle through. Really the main challenge is just sticking with it as it took me about 16 hr. to build so I would recommend this set for ages around 15+ in terms of building.
The Set (playability): Apart from the Minifigures, what I also really like about this set is how durable it is. With the exception of Death Star green laser beams nothing has fallen apart, and that is coming from a clumsy kid who bumps into everything. It is so durable in fact, that I think that any Lego fan regardless of age would have fun with it. Even younger fans who are just starting in their building experience will have so much fun with this set. There is also so much you can do with this set as well. Every single scene in the Death Star has been recreated so can reenact scenes from the Fourth as well as the Sixth Star Wars films. My personal favorite is the Emperor's throne room as it is my favorite Star Wars Scene in the entire franchise. Lego knocked this scene out of the ball park between the collapsing platform, to the updated window, and the bridge between the throne and the exit. Also, one more thing I have to mention, there are a ton of extra rooms and gimmicks that Lego put in this set including, an elevator, a storage floor (the bottom floor), a droid repair room, and more! Lego also has utilized the spring missiles with the Death Star's Turbo lasers which hold in nicely and do not fire at annoying times.
Complaints: While this set is pretty close to perfect, it does have a couple flaws. First of all the hangar that holds Darth Vaders Tie Fighter (which Darth Vader himself can fit in) does not work very well. The Mechanism that holds the tie fighter kept leaning forward too much which was really annoying. I just removed it and like it better having an open hangar for my stormtroopers. Second, I wish Lego gave us a few more Death Star troopers and gunners as there is not enough for each of the guns, turrets, and viewing platform. Luckily I had one extra one which was all we really needed. Third, I wish that Lego had used Rogue One characters such as Director Krennic to give it the set a more updated feel. The key chain of Director Krennic is available to purchase on Lego and after purchasing him, I can honestly say that he looks great with the set and would totally recommend doing it. Finally, I wish Lego had found a way to make the beams more durable as it can be annoying to keep knocking these off. Each of these are minor issues and can be rectified and should not be the cause of a person not purchasing this set.
Final Thoughts: Overall this set is a masterpiece. Not only are the Minifigures great, but the set itself is really fun to build, as each room/level reveals a scene from the movies. From an experienced Lego collector who has been collecting Lego Star Wars sets for 11 years, I can honestly say that this is my favorite Lego/Lego Star Wars set of all time. "
