All we needed was phase 2 commander Cody instead of the air borne trooper

General Grievous is back!
on December 31, 2020
Posted by: LegoFan5820
This set is really awesome! I really wanted this set, since General Grievous is my favorite Star Wars character, and now that I have it, I just love it! The characters include Obi-Wan Kenobi, an Airborne Clone Trooper, and General Grievous himself. I already have the Duel on Mustafar LEGO set, so Obi-Wan isn't new, but since he slayed Grievous, it is only appropriate to include him, even if the torso is off. I like the Airborne Clone, especially since he is a brand-new figure, but I can agree that it should have been Commander Cody. Now, the General Grievous minifigure is amazing, and this is one out of the only three sets you can get this version of him. The starfighter looks visually beautiful, and it has some tricks up its sleeve! The stud-shooters are nice, but if you think that's the only weapon on board, you're wrong! Underneath the ship is a spring-loaded shooter to pack a bigger punch! Another feature I love is that you can store Grievous's lightsabers in the engines, so when he's not holding them, you have a place to put them. The cockpit is specially designed for Grievous so he can fit all four of his arms in, and I like how it slides. And the best part: NO STICKERS!!!!! A lot of people say this set is horribly priced, and I could agree it could be dropped ten dollars or so, but I would totally buy it again for the awesome figures and ship! Would 100% recommend, and congratulations to LEGO on a job well done!

So much fun!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son has had a great time playing with this and he was so proud that this was the first one he could put together all on his own. It took a couple hours to put together but he had fun the whole time. I love that it has given him the confidence. The legos are great, they stand up to kids and their roughness. All the pieces were there and made to last. We love lego!

Fun to Build
on September 7, 2020

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son and I had so much fun putting together the Lego Star Wars General Grievous's Starfighter Set. This set was 487 pieces and took us a couple hours to complete. The directions are clear and easy to follow. There are pictures on each page of the instruction book so you can follow along as you put the starfighter together. You could even download the Lego App and scan the bar code for instructions. I like that Lego breaks the pieces of this set up into three different labeled bags. This makes building this set so much easier. You know exactly what pieces are needed for that portion of the set. You can also take breaks in between bags, so that you are not overwhelmed putting it together all at one time. This is what my son and I did. The Lego building blocks snap together easily and stay in place. Lego even includes a brick separator tool to use in case you snap the wrong pieces together. We used it once and it works well. The finished product is sturdy and has two compartments on the ship that open and can be used to store the General's weapons. Overall, this was a fun set to put together and my son enjoyed the feeling of accomplishment once it was complete.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Loved it
on October 21, 2020

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The build was fun for my 5 year old. It’s pretty sturdy with few parts falling apart (although the canopy ought to be more secured)
The lack of orange accent tends to irk me as it gives the snowspeeder it’s iconic stature. But it does give it a more grimier look.
The cockpit is small. With the 2 pilots sitting in there, they are literally touching helmet to helmet and the rear pilot’s helmet is rest against the top of the canopy.
The rear gun is tension activated and can propel the small round, blue stud a good distance away (> 3 feet).
I would recommend this to a friend!

Disappointing

Aside from the mini figures, this build is reminiscent of the designs of the earliest Star Wars builds. Lego designs have come a long way since then, so this disappointing to see. What a shame. What’s happened to Lego?

Good Build For a Horrible Price
on December 24, 2020
Posted by: ElectricMango42
HORRIBLE PRICE unless your a die hard Revenge of the Sith fan like me just dont buy this. My Favorite feature is the sliding doors on the sides of the ship (i open and close them hours at a time every day) but other than that its a pretty average starship with an easy building expirience
