Recommendation: yes 9.5 / 10 by Dark Wanderer

I'm happy with this set. It's relatively cheap, it has SQUIDMAN!, a decent speeder, and nicely balances out the Space Police III line. My thoughts? Get two if you see them. I'd be even glad to buy another.

I bought this for my nephew who is a gigantic Lego Fanatic. He owns I don't even know how many Lego sets and has been to Lego World. He was super excited to get his. It lasted through him playing with it a few years and then his younger brother. Neither one of them are easy on their toys so that's saying something. My sister-in-law recently gave it to a friend for her boys.
