Everything about this set is great. I absolutely love Bespin and the model does a great job representing this awesome planet. The twin-pod cloud car is also quite spectacular. The best part, though, by far is Lobot. Lobot used to be very difficult to acquire as he was in only one other previous set (in 2002, I believe). Lobot may become more difficult to find again after this set sells out. Keep in mind that these planet series sets are for display and have little to zero playability. The age recommendations are 6-12, but this is to gauge building ability, not the age group that would enjoy this the most. This is a great set and is surely worth the money!
The planet sets are at a price point that makes them highly collectable: the planets themselves are not much use other than for Christmas tree decorations but the combination of an often unique (or rare) minifig and a well-designed micro-scale model make them irresistible.
Overall, I think this is an excellent set design, and does Lobot and the Cloud Car justice in recreated them in plastic form. There's also a good selection of orange pieces to add to your collection. The planet model itself is kind of odd, but the idea is cool and now MOCers have the challenge of incorporating it into MOCs. Plus, the set is affordable, and I'm sure a lot of fans will impulsively buy it like I did. For the average LEGO Star Wars fan, I don't see a reason why you shouldn't pick this one up.
A nice little set with a great minifigure. Well worth buying if you can find it with a slight discount. I live in hope that Lego will finally release a new Cloud City as it seems very odd that they would release this set without one in the pipeline...
