Customer Reviews

Incredibly cool and a guaranteed kid pleaser
This beautiful starfighter jet? spaceship? never fails to elicit comments about its coolness or awesomeness from young visitors to our house. It was the first of my son's lego birthday presents that he assembled. He treasures this toy and takes great pains to make sure it doesn't get destroyed or broken or mixed up in the general lego bin. But even if it were to get mixed in, the bright yellow color should make it easier to find the needed pieces if my son ever wished to rebuild it.

The starfighter is pretty durable too. It has been dropped several times and it is either undamaged or breaks in an easily fixable way - no shattered lego pieces strewn across the floor.

It also comes with R2D2, a couple of people (I think one is Anakin), and a smaller fighter ship, so the set provides enough extras for lots of imaginative play.

Finally! A good starfighter!
Attention! Attention everyone! Your prayers about a better Naboo Starfighter have been answered! After discovering that Lego made new Episode 1 sets I looked at this one and the old one. The new set has a generic fighter pilot and Anakin has hair. The droid starfighter has a walk and fly mode. Basically, these sleek ships wipe away the competion.

Prone to breaking...
My son got this as as birthday present, and it is very cool looking. He put it together with some help, and it just wouldn't stay together very well. His dad, who has loved and collected legos for years, tried to reinforce the design with additional pieces. That didn't even help. I have read the other reviews suggesting that the design is durable, but the wings collapsed on my son's when he tried to put people into the cockpit. Despite this, we have rebuilt the ship at least 6 times because it is wonderful visual design, very slick looking.
