Very very nice set!
" This set is very small, but also very cool! The A model is definitely the best, while the B and C models are just average. The A model is a nice looking, sleek jet, and the colors are nice. It has a very cool function where you can pull the back two engines to adjust the width of the wing span.

Nice little set
" Overall this set is pretty nice. I like the design of the vehicle, especially the engine in front. The minifigures are also nice. The yellow bird looks kind of lie a banana which is cool.

Cool, Unique Set
" Overall, this set is very good, and has some very cool functions that make it very unique.
Functions:
1) Steering:
The front two tracks of the vehicle are able to be steered left and right via a gear knob at the top of the model, on the roof. It uses Ackermann geometry by linking beams together, which is pretty cool. One small downside to the steering is that it is relatively hard to use because there is a lot of friction on the tracks.

2) Suspension:
The set uses live axel suspension, meaning that each set of tracks (front and rear) are connected. The suspension works well, especially because the tracks can rotate slightly on the point where they are connected to the vehicle. This lets it roll over many surfaces very smoothly, if you push it hard enough, and keep the steering straight.

3) Four wheel drive and V8 piston engine:
The vehicle has an eight piston engine, which is very cool, and has some nice brick built (non technic) details on it. The driveshaft that is connected to the engine is connected to all four track bogies, meaning that you can lift half of the vehicle off of the ground and the engine will still run. The engine is covered by a hood, which can be lifted up at the front of the vehicle.

4) Cool doors:
The doors of this set are my favorite function. They are very cool. Basically, they are separated into two sections, a bottom and a top, that open kind of like a sports car's door would. They have springs inside that are linked to the bottom and top sections, allowing you to just barely nudge one part of the door open or closed, and it will continue from the power of the springs. These doors are very unique, and have not been featured in any other technic set (that I can think of).

5) Raising roof:
The roof of the vehicle can be raised via a gear on the left side of the car. The roof is attached at the side closest to the steering knob, and raises at the part towards the back of the car.

6) Winch
The winch in this set is also very nice, especially compared to other technic winches in the past. It allows you to pull it out, instead of wind it out, and make it lock again. This makes it much quicker, and easy to use. Then, you can wind the winch back in by a gear on the right side of the vehicle, opposite of the gear that raises the roof.

7) Opening side compartments:
There are some little side compartments on both sides of the vehicle. In each of them there are some cool details, that seem to represent a fire extinguisher and a small safety kit, containing a syringe.

8) Opening and locking back door with drawer
At the back of the vehicle, there is a small door, which can be locked and unlocked by turning a large knob on that door. When opened, there is a small handle that can be pulled to open a small drawer containing a shovel.

Overall thoughts:
This set has many cool functions, that are not used in other sets in the same way they are here, making it very unique. The tracks are also pretty cool, although it would be nice if you could interchange them with wheels easily. The doors are super awesome, and the color scheme is a bit odd (to me), but works well on this vehicle. The set is overall surprisingly light weight (but still heavy), due to the fact that it has not power functions (which is very uncommon for a set of this size). Overall the set is very cool and fun, and I would recommend it to a friend. "

Master Wu
" After watching the Lego Ninjago Movie (and enjoying it), I decided to pick this set up because Master Wu was a great character. The building process is very, very quick, with its low piece count of 89. I really like the hat and the beard, and the little pink 2x2 that is put inside of every brickhead to resemble a brain. Overall it is a good display piece that resembles Wu very well.
