Recommendation: meh 4.4 / 5 from 28 reviews

We bought this for my girlfriend's brother for his eighth birthday, thinking it would provide a challenge for him. He has other legos and some of the other hero factory, which apparently prepared him very well for this. He had fun putting it together but it was definitely no great challenge. It looks pretty sturdy and he loves playing with it, especially the ball that shoots out of the hand. I guess we should have given him a little more credit to his lego assembly skills, but it was still a good purchase.

Recommendation: meh 8 / 10 by Siegfried

I do like Rocka XL. Not as much as Von, but I still think he's an imposing figure and I think they'll learn to get on. I would love to see something similar at a higher price point however.

In the end, I would not recommend Rocka XL as a set you just have to get. His design isn't great for looks or mobility, and that's before you consider that it's a rip-off of the Fire Lord's build. What Rocka XL does have are lots of nice pieces, including plenty of armor elements in gold. If you're going for the pieces, then Rocka XL would be a good buy if you can get him on sale. But if it's a Hero you want, then I would suggest going for Rocka 3.0, Bulk 3.0, or one of the other smaller guys.
