Customer Reviews

GREAT LOOKING!
Another fine looking plane from Lego. Great design. Easy build but looks awesome. Comes with 4 mini-figures, a nice gas truck and a hidden compartment between the front and rear cockpits. Highly recommended for any Indiana Jones lego collector.

Note:Small point-on the left and right of the wings are these hinges that hold the flaps. Could use another piece to secure tighter plus the 'ark' is not included. Also, the front landing gear can come off while playing. No biggie but make sure to secure it tight.
There's also a crate with some gems but not the ark itself. Would've been nice to have had a detailed ark and or closed box that closer to the movie one. But you can substitute the ark from another Indiana Jones set here.

Nice model... not overly complicated for little kids.
I picked this up for my 7 year old son for his birthday. He was able to assemble the kit without assistance, except for the stickers which I helped him with. I'm a plane buff, so I'm glad he picked out this model. The Plane is based on the Horton HO 229, which was a jet developed by the Nazi's toward the end of WWII. The plane is modified to match the one that appears in the Indiana Jones movie... with propellers instead of jets. The wing is one large piece with 2 winglets added on to the wingtips. This makes it very sturdy for play. The large stickers used for camouflage would be a little difficult for a kid to apply, end I had a little trouble getting one in the right position... just be careful and take your time. It's a great model, from a classic scene of a great movie!

Is it really worth it in the end? Hey but the kids love it!
I'm having this issue with the lego sets. Although I will say they are of great enjoyment to my son and I in building, they always feel pointless in the end, especially when you look at the price tags the better sets command. I guess if you're some over compensating person who has enough room for a multitude of built lego sets to be displayed then I could see the investments, although I would feel a little sorry for you. In reality kids like to play with things, and in the case of Boys, play with things rather roughly, and many of the Lego sets are fragile at best. Yes my son spouts happiness's upon gazing at a new lego set but inevitably the set gets broken down to its most basic form and becomes another box of blocks added to the tub that's full of more colors than a San Francisco parade. All I got to say is when your elbow deep in tub full of legos looking for a single square black you'll be wondering the same things, now I'm off to build an 1,150 piece super semi-truck thing my son got from Grandpa for Christmas, goodbye day off, THANKS DAD!
