Recommendation: meh 23 / 30 by DarthPotato

The set itself is lacking in many areas, specifically playability. There were several features in which I was left disappointed in. The minfigures, though, are phenomenal.

There are quite a few highly desirable parts in this set, including many dark red pieces; this is a fairly uncommon colour and a very attractive one.

I would recommend this set, however there are certain aspects which I find a little disappointing, for instance the lack of accuracy at the expense of play features. [...] The figures though, are a real triumph. We get absolutely everybody we need for the scene and all six Minifigures are nice, especially Palpatine, Saesee Tiin and the brand new Agen Kolar in my opinion.
