Recommendation: meh 4.3 / 5 from 38 reviews

I bought this and Nex 6221 for my 8 year old granson. He was absolutely thrilled with them and played nonstop and even wrote me a thank you note. The two figure can be played with separately or joined together to make one hero.

Overall, XT4's appearance isn't my favorite. He doesn't look strong or powerful or menacing. Instead, he looks like a skinny robot who's trying to carry too many weapons at once. In my opinion, he's not one of the better villains. But if you're into the thin, four arm types, then we'll just have a difference of opinions. It is a new direction LEGO took for building a humanoid, but I just don't think it worked out well. What I do like about this set is the pieces, especially the brand new mini body, which doesn't appear anywhere else yet.
