LEGOStar Wars: A New Hope Escape Pod vs. Dewback Microfighters 75228 Building Kit (177 Pieces) (Discontinued by Manufacturer)

This is definitely a different take for the microfighters series. The droid escape pod has been done several times before; most people probably already have 3PO and R2 by now, but if you don't, then this set will be a good buy for you. For my money the highlight is the dewback build - I was surprised at how it came together and overall I think it looks pretty "realistic" despite the microfighter scale. It's cute.This set also includes a new, dual-molded helmet for the Sandtrooper, and it seems (judging by other sets) that this is the new standard moving forward. (Unlike the new dual-molded X-wing pilot helmets from one set last summer; it looks like LEGO has moved back to the old mold already!) I think it looks great. It's definitely larger than the previous standard helmet, but minifigures are already at cartoonish proportions so I don't see the problem. I've seen how many of the old standard helmets are often inconsistent with their printing. This dual molded approach looks totally spot-on.

The external box was normal and intact. Being sold and shipped by Amazon I was expecting a normal Amazon shipping box. This one was just a plain white box sent via USPS. The internal LEGO box was a bit banged up, (see pictures) which was odd considering the external box was just fine. The LEGOs were just fine and not broken, just not sure what happened to the LEGO box.

This minifighter set is super cute. The throwback to the original trilogy is much appreciated and the inclusion of a Dewback as a vehicle is great. These are on par with the other microfighters from a construction standpoint.

Fun and easy build. The dewback is cute and looks good plus you get more r2d2 and c3po to and to my huge army of those guys. But you should get this.

Gift for the grandkids, they really enjoyed it. One of several purchased to keep grandson busy. Good size, nice number of parts and instructions a 4 year old can understand.

My 5-year old put this together in about an hour and has been playing with it non-stop since! He is a huge fan of both legos and star wars. Good little kit!

Great for any age

I love it im a adult woman and I had to have it and several other little star war sets

great gift, bought for a 5 year old birthday party. he loved it, and amazing its on amazon prime so I didn't have to take time out of my day to get a party gift!

Este es el segundo LEGO Microfighter que compra mi hijo de 6 años, LE ENCANTAN! Son fáciles de armar para el y está haciendo su pequeña colección de personajes.

Another great Lego Star Wars Microfighter series. Fun to build and great to play with or display. I hope this series keeps going for years to come.

El set esta genial pues incluye buenas minifiguras, incluso el truper esta muy detallado. El único punto encontra es que la caja del set llegó golpeada y un poco arrugada :/

Me gusto este set ya que contiene hasta 2 figuras algo nunca visto en un set microfighter de lego star wars y también tiene movimiento
