Nice bottle, great displayer!
" When it came out, I did not like it at all. It was overpriced as 1/3 of the pieces are juste little clear-blue studs. Then it came on sale and I decided to give it a shot, because I wanted those big clear pieces to build my modern building downtown in my city.
As soon as I received it, I opened the box to discover those HUGE clear parts. One big negative point here: many have dings or little scratches, probably due to packaging. Nothing protect them in the box, that's a shame. Anyway, I'm not making a big deal about that because they eventually will have some scratches, but that's early!
Once the bottle was done, I can tell you, I was unable to put it down, too impressed, turning it in all direction. It is really impressive and its size is surprising. The techniques used to build the end of the bottle are nice, it will probably become a glass roof in my building. I built it first without the boat inside.
The compass is well made too, cool printed pieces and no stickers! The globes will look awesome in the library or in the office of Octan CEO.
I have to say that this set is not playable at all. It is purely a displayer. I am planning on buying a second one for my bar, as it looks really gorgeous and I want one to look at as I use the pieces of the other one. Maybe I will put an small-sized Falcon it it.
On sale (got it at 35% off), it's a great deal. At regular price, even if it a little pricey, it is a unique set and really beautiful to look at. Again, no playability.
It does deserve a 4 stars (4.5 maybe) as it is really well made. Unique HUGE clear pieces, printed pieces and make a very cool displayer if you want to.

Very cool scene once again
" I usually love the small scene sets and this one is no exception. It does capture the feeling of the chamber with a small amount of pieces. Actually, here's the negative point about this set: not enough pieces for the price. I got it on deal (40% off) so I can't complain too much about this. It's easy to add white pieces and make it a starting point for a big Hoth base MOC. The playability is great too as it is, so it does deserve a 4 stars overall.
The minifigures are really great. This set was a unique occasion to grab this medical droid and the naked Luke, wich are exclusives to this set. Princess Leia is available in the Betrayal at Cloud City, wich is way more expensive. Only neg point here: no Han Solo... He is so necessary to this scene and rarely seen out of the Falcon.
It's a great addition for the figs but also the pieces and the plates. White, grey and black pieces are always welcome for my city.
It was too expensive at it's original price. So wait for it to be on clearance.
