This shuttle is easy to build and very awesome. Comes with two mini figs one male and one female, also a deploy-able satellite. The price range is great for what your getting. Fits very nicely on my computer desk.

Recommendation: meh 4.6 / 5 from 136 reviews

Christmas present for my son (age 4). Lot of fun building it together with him. Instructions were clear and parts were separated into 2 bags inside. Went page by page and we completed it in about 20 minutes. I like how sturdy the wings were because he plays with it like it's just another toy and it holds up pretty well. It's been over 6 months and though I don't know where the satellite went or the lego guys visors, it's still going strong.I also like how the whole front compartment was designed to easily pop off so that the kids could get the astronauts in and out without having to tear into it, a nice detail.And if you were wondering and care, the two astronauts are a man and a woman but of course they look the same with the suit and helmet on.

Recommendation: meh 4.5 / 5 by Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Despite the positives of the set, there are a few things that I didn't like about it. One is the lack of wheels for it. It would've been nice to have some wheels to make it liftoff from the ground because right now, it just seems that it's in the air forever with no ability to land. The other thing I didn't really like about the set is the price. The reasoning for the higher price is probably because of the larger mold pieces for the front of the shuttle which is understandable and the inclusion of two minifigures. Other than that, I do recommend picking up the Utility Shuttle (60078) if you're a Space fan.

Recommendation: no 4 / 5

The Utility Shuttle is intended for kids, ages 5–12. We think kids ages 5–7 will love it, but might need some help building it. Older LEGO fans and collectors will also like this one for display.

There are no special building techniques and almost all parts are common. There is a small stickers sheet with the different logos of the LEGO Space Agency and the solar panels of the satellite. Compared to its big brother it's a cute / tiny spaceship and it worths for the regular price of around 20€.
