Customer Reviews

Mars Mission Tank Ambush
This is an excellent product for children learning to build and create items. Once constructed, the tank is very fragile and easy to break. If the item is to be purchased for a child who will play with the item after constructed, STAY AWAY!

More of a model than a toy
The thing about these lego sets is that the toy aspect of it isn't durable for the average boy. Yes it's great learning how to put things together, but if the darn thing keeps losing pieces if you are playing with it as an "action figure" the kid gets frustrated and annoyed. And as the mom who has a hard time even figuring out how to build the thing, when a piece pops off, you have to almost refer back to the original directions which are nowhere to be found.

C.T.A aka Claw Tank Ambush
Pros:clawer and blaster arms, head moves 360 degrees around, rocket things on top, shootin' function,(pssst, I thought about a R.C Claw Tank but I dont have any Power Functions.) Cons: can't find another! Great set.
