"Have no fear, help is on the way."
" This is a good small set with a very simple build and looks very lifelike. It is a scaled-down version of the one seen in Rebels so there is no room for a pilot, but the side compartments and general look of the vehicle are still match what is seen on-screen. The flick-fire missiles on top could have been improved, perhaps by allowing them to move up and down as well. There is room for all the minifigures and extra studs, so the set stays very compact. The stormtroopers all have the same design, but with two different faces, the same as the clone troopers. The stud blasters are a nice addition and add some variety to what might otherwise be bland minifigures. If you aren't a fan of the blasters however, you may consider also buying Kanan's Speeder Bike and using the blasters that come with that set.
Good, simple set for building an army. "

"Get those crates out of here!"
" This set has a lot to offer in terms of playability. The speeder is very detailed and uses a very interesting design. The only problem is that the minifigure can't sit on it and reach the handlebars, but he can still be stood up and look good. The crates can open and close and look very lifelike. The large number of blasters and accessories included in the set make it a good army builder.
The minifigures are all very detailed. Kanan has coloring on his torso to show his armor, has a double-sided face, and uses a unique hair piece. This set is a great way to get a Kanan minifigure without spending too much money. The Imperial combat driver is very accurate also. He uses a gray hat and a specially printed head to show his helmet. The stormtrooper is the same as usual and is well-detailed.
Overall, a great set for building an army or just playing around with. "

"Hello hyperspace!"
" This is a very simple set and a great place to get a Hera minifigure for those not willing to get the full-sized version. The build is pretty simple but it does use a few clever techniques. The stud shooter fits well with the set and there is space to store the extra studs. The focus of the set is Hera and she is very detailed and well done. She has a double-sided face and comes with a blaster pistol.
This set may seem small but it is worth the money. "

"I am the best pilot in the Order...."
" I've always loved the design of the Jedi starfighters and this is no exception. The ship looks very good and is very accurate. It uses some very interesting techniques in the design, from the way the engines are attatched, to the way the wings curve upwards over the engines, to the way the cockpit is built. As for playability, this set does not fall short. It is larger than the other Jedi starfighters, but this doesn't detract from the maneuverability. The spring-loaded missiles work great, as usual, and there is a place underneath the ship to store the extras and so they don't get lost. The ejection mechanism for R4 is simple but effective, but the rod is a little on the long side (it can very easily be removed if you don't want it.) The detachable cockpit seems a bit unnecessary, but it does add to the playability. There are also clips for Anakin's lightsaber and binoculars, which allows the set to remain compact and portable. There are a few stickers which can be annoying to put on (especially on the front of the engines) but this is only a minor detail.
The minifigures don't disappoint either. Anakin is the same as his previous appearance in the Republic Gunship and he looks good. He has a double-sided head with a smiling and an angry face. He also has a padawan braid printed on his body. A nice touch might have been to have given him a different colored hand, to match his mechanical hand in the cartoon featuring this set, but I understand why he doesn't have it.
R4 has the standard astromech design and is a nice addition.
Asajj Ventress is also very detailed and accurate to her appearance in the cartoon, and her inclusion in the set allows you to recreate their epic duel on Yavin IV.
Great set overall, especially for older fans who remember the original Clone Wars series from their younger years. "
