Recommendation: yes 9 / 10 by JimBee

A very cool ship with a very cool minifig and accessories. One of the best SW sets I have ever seen for its small price.

Recommendation: meh 53 / 60 by Big Cam

Not to bad, the only real downside here is the minifig. I guess it also depends on who is doing the review. General Grievous just doesn't do it for me, but his ship certainly does. It looks great, it plays great, and functions great. Plus all those lightsabers, how can you go wrong?

Recommendation: meh 44 / 50 by Navy Trooper Fenson

I really miss at least one lever for Grievous to pull or a ticker of controls. Maybe with a hologram projector, like in the scene, where Bail Organa contacted Kenobi in this fighter. All other design-flaws are forgiveable.

The price is raised due to it being no longer made. If you are a collector then I need say no more. For newly Star Wars Lego fans. You may prefer this version versus the newer one. I like this ships version but prefer the new General Grievous minifig. Due to it being released in 2007 I expected some minor damage to the box which was true in my case. Slight dent in the box so defiantly not a mint box for being "labeled new". I don't blame the seller just because I can go to walmart and find boxes in similar condition to this one (2017 sets of course). Overall a great purchase. I was 13 when this set came out and ended up losing it, now here I am as an adult repurchasing it lol...
