Recommendation: meh 4.4 / 5 from 42 reviews

My 11 yr-old Grandson got this for his birthday. It took him several (happy) hours to build it, without assistance, and he has played with it for many more and continues to do so regularly. He loves it, despite it not actually matching the ship as featured in the movie, which will not apparently be available until May sometime. For those who may not be familiar, Rex's ship in the movie resembles a fist. It is named the 'Rexcelsior' (see pic) and will be set #70839.

This is an impressive set that fans of the new movie will want to build and collect. It's got fun details that help kids play out the movie's action and a brand-new Emmet minifigure that collectors will definitely want to have.

Recommendation: meh 78 / 100 by John

All in all, it's a fun build and good fun to fly around the room. It's great that there's specific spots for each and every weapon and character. The only two that don't fit in the Rexplorer (and for good reason) are the Plantimals.

First of all, this set is just gorgous with the color scheme of lime green and dark blue. The build of the ship was solid and holds alot of space for minifigures. Its funny and interesting how the raptors pilot the ship. The bottom cockpit can actually come out of the build as a speeder and you can store some weapons inside the ship. My only concern about this set is when you put the raptor in the top cockpit, his legs and tail stick out which doesn't look good to me but LEGO did what they could so thats ok. The figures you get are Emmet and Rex and 2 of Rex's raptors (One with blue stripe and one with green). The plantimals are cool to play with and battle and I can see this to be a really cool spaceship for The LEGO Movie 2!
