Recommendation: meh 44 / 50 by Navy Trooper Fenson

The set is nicely designed with many details. My only problems are with the Speederbikes which were better in the 7676 Gunship and with the AT-ST legs. Also the bunker could have been better with a normal brick wall and a sticker of the death star or Han in AT-ST driver uniform.

Recommendation: no 3.5 / 5 from 41 reviews

I bought this Lego set for my two grandsons, ages 5 and 7, who come to spend the weekend occasionally. I did notice that it's recommended for ages 9-14 but I thought, "They're smart and resourceful, so they'll love it." In reality, they were overwhelmed by the sheer volume of the pieces and the difficulty level. They soon lost interest in playing with it. I will put it away now until they are older and then bring it out in a few years. The suggested ages are on the box for a reason.
