    One of my favourite sets

    Written by (TFOL) in Bulgaria,

    This is one hell of a set with many rare and exclusive parts and minifigures. It hasn't been yet remade and this is why this set is unique and a must-have for your SW collection.

    Pros

    • Greedo (exclusive for this set...can't find him elsewhere)
    • Dewback (like Greedo)
    • Nice landspeeder

    Cons

    • Cantina is too small

    A perfect SW set overall. I highly recommend it for all Lego Star Wars fans !

    Great little set!

    Written by (TFOL) in United Kingdom,

    I believe I purchased this set for £25.00 when it was first released. Although it was quite a steep price, I thouroughly enjoyed the set, most probably due to the Landspeeder and Dewback.

    Pros

    • Lovely Landspeeder
    • Dewback - Unique to this set
    • Great figures, especially Greedo
    • Nice little cantina

    Cons

    • Steep price

    Overall, it's a great set, and although it's probably quite expensive to buy now, I highly recommend it to everyone!

  • SandTrooper, Greedo, DewBack Lizard! Oh My!

    Written by (Unspecified , bronze-rated reviewer) in United States,

    I am not to sure why people give such negative reviews on this set, it is awesome!

    First of all every keeps making remarks why is the Sand Trooper is holding a staff? Well because in the movie he was of course it was not that long, but Lego took the time and added that detail to this set.

    Second everyone complains about the Catina being to small, hey I would love to have a full catina, but if Lego did that the set would cost to much and then we would all complain about that.

    Third complaint I read is Luke having a lightsaber. Well rerember when Obi Wan rescued Luke from the Sand People in his house Obi gave showed him his father's lightsaber and said he would have wanted him to have it.

    The only complaint I believe is justified is no C3PO or R2D2!

    Pros -
    Greedo (Very Rare) with a customize blaster
    Very Accurate SandTrooper with DewBack Lizard
    Printed Legs on Luke Mini Fig
    Land Speeder is nice

    Cons
    NONE! Peope stop being picky!

    If you have a chance to pick up this set, my advice is get it! It is great to add to any collectors collection.

    OK I love this set but the new landspeeder might be better I will have to see...

  • Lots of stuff.

    Written by (TFOL , gold-rated reviewer) in United States,

    The Dewback: Not much. Not much detail, not much posability. The legs are molded together, so they have to move with eachother. Not the greatest.

    Landspeeder: Not very good with detail. It has a plethora of studs on the top, making it look ugly. It does, though, have a clunky, worn out look to it. One of the engines is a different color, probably resembling that its been repaired.

    Cantina: Can you even call it that? They really need to make a larger version of this and add more to it. What we have here is a table, door, and "bar". In the movie the bar was a detailed mess of bottles and tubes. Here its a bottle, cup, and spigot. What we do get of the cantina is nicly detailed. And we also get Greedo in this set. The only place you can get him aside from the Sepratist Shuttle (not Greedo, but the same species).

    Overall a good-Great set. I'd rate it 4 1/2, but I'm roundng to 5. The lack of detail and small cantina marks it down, but it's easy to get over.
