Great set
" I've been waiting for this set to come out for several months now. I was not disappointed! The minifigs are great and the five sets I purchased gave me an instant army of 20 guys. There made of the standard Lego green, which is brighter than I thought. Place them next to a few lego trees and they blend right in.
You get lots of extras with this set as well: Minesweeper, 2 radios, a suitcase (medical kit), binoculars, stretcher, and a backpack. The jeep is a bonus in my opinion.
The stands for the minifigs work very well. My only hope is that Lego starts offering them in different colors. "

Great little set
" The set went to together fast and was not difficult. The speeder looks very nice when assembled and has lots of swoosh value! The Talz chieftain minifig is one of the coolest of the the new sets.
The price is a little steep for the parts you get, but overall a good purchase. "

A great set!
" The set went together quickly and easily. With ten minifigs, it took a little bit of time just to get them together. The instructions were well laid out.
The set has lots of playability: A large number of place to place minifigs. Cool traps, and weapons to fire at the attacking knights. It's much bigger than it looks in the picture. It can be spread out to make a wall with a tower behind it, or folded together to make a large castle.
A good value for the money, lots of weapons and minifigs. This set gets a high rating from me. "

Not the best...
" The color of the droids were nice, good addition to my droid collection. The way the bombs drop out of the ship was really cool. Makes for awesome bombing runs.
The bomber is much smaller than I thought. It's wings/legs look cool but when you collapse and open them they tend to fall apart. There's lots of moving parts. One of those sets that you spend a lot of time putting pieces back on or back in place.
Once everything is in place the bomber has good swoosh value and the bombs are a plus. I would advise sticking to the age limit on this set due to the moving parts etc. "

Breast Cancer awareness ???
" I picked up ten of these for a walk-a-thon we were having for breast cancer awareness. Everyone received a pink hat and the top ten people received a pink Minnesota Vikings jersey and one of these.
Not only do they all use it daily for their keys, others have bought one and use it as well. A great way to show your LEGO pride. "

Nice lunch box
" I purchased this lunch box for my niece. She just loves it. It is thermal lined so it helps to keep her lunch cool. It's well built, she's carries it everyday and it's held up nicely.
It does have dragon fly zippers which I didn't notice until it arrived and my niece thought that was the best part. "

A very fun set
" The set went together quickly, and with no problems. It's an easy build for anyone 8 and up. Under that, they may need some help.
There are plenty of cool minifigs in it. The ship is solid with good swoosh. The set itself has lots to do, and will keep you interested for a long while. One of the best sets for playability I've seen in a while.
The cost is a bit high, but this was a special set, so cost is not to far out of line. "

A very cool Vehicle
" I'm not a big Bionicle fan. For me they don't have enough traditional lego pieces so that I can re-use them. But this vehicle is starting to change my mind about that.
This is a nice entry level set without to big of a price tag. Goes together well. The Bionicle guy comes in/out easy. The ship itself has a great swoosh factor!
Once you've built this one, and you like it. Move onto the Axalara T9. "

Fun set to build
" This set was a lot of fun to build. It took a single afternoon to complete it. There are some very interesting building methods used in this set (Front bumper, side panels, ladder etc). The per piece price is great.
The set might be a little hard for those in the lower end of the age group. The ladder wasn't as smooth operating as it could have been.
Overall a great set to build! "

Great set, not so great game
" If your looking to get some minifigs at a good price, this set is great. At an average of $2.00 a piece it's a great way to add to your army.
If your looking for a game of tic tac toe, I'd look for something else. I let my niece and nephew play who are 7yrs and 8 yrs. They got confused at times as to whose pieces are whose. They look a little to similar in color. And of course in the middle of several games a war broke out between the pirates and soldiers :) Not a bad thing, but not tic tac toe. "
