Fighter Plane
on April 15, 2023
Posted by: jomama
This was a great set and great one to re release. I enjoyed building and playing with it. I had trouble putting on the sticker around the planes cockpit, so I took the sticker off and replied and it looks terrible. Trying to get a sticker replacement now… overall really fun!
I would recommend this to a friend!
Response from LEGOBy John, LEGO® Customer Service, April 16, 2023
This epic chase scene is worth reliving again and again! Thanks for letting us know about your experience with the stickers. Our designers have a pro tip for applying stickers: lightly spray a window cleaner on the surface of the parts to be decorated. This will allow you to adjust the sticker without damaging it. Once you have it in place, use a flat edge to smooth out any bubbles and let it dry.

Another LEGO Indiana Jones knockout
on July 2, 2023
Posted by: SternBus052
This has been one of LEGO's greatest waves of all time, and this set definitely contributes to that. While I do wish there were a couple seagulls included, it's nearly impossible to complain about this set. The car looks great, the plane's wings being able to pop off is such a fun feature, and the minifigures, like all other sets in this wave, are fantastically done. At this price, I have no idea how any Indy fan could pass this set up.

A nice set for a new Indy theme

Verified Purchase:No
When I was a kid, I begged my parents for the Fighter Plane Attack set from the old 2008 Indiana Jones theme. I never got it, and only recently acquired one through eBay, but this set is a decent remake, though admittedly not perfect.
I've seen other complaints about the canopy sticker, and while I had no trouble applying it, I can understand the frustrations of others. I like the plane's design otherwise, with the flames attached to the underside of the fuselage to simulate it scraping against the road after the wings come off. I'm not the biggest fan of the stud shooters in this set, they don't fit the style of the plane at all. The 2008 version had larger wings, but it also had simple brick-built machine guns mounted under the wings in addition to flick-fire missiles, which I thought looked much better on what is meant to be a WW2-era plane. The car is a decent build. I do wish that it had opening doors or just some windshield glass, but I guess that's expecting a bit much sometimes, especially from a small set. The minifigures, like all the sets in this new line, are phenominal. Indy is very nice with a new torso print with the tie he wore in that scene, Henry Senior is very nice as well, looking even more like the actor than the previous version did, and I was blown away by the detail on the fighter pilot, especially considering LEGO's decision not to make any LEGO sets based on real military vehicles, as well as who the antagonists of Last Crusade were.
I'm sad that we probably won't get any more LEGO Indiana Jones sets in this line, especially with the cancellation of the Temple of Doom set, but the ones we did get are very nice and, for the time they've been out, have revived my childhood.

Thrilled!

Such a cool set for the price! Great for adult fans of the films and kids who like car or plane/'flying machine' sets! And Henry Jone's journal was a great touch!

It belongs in a museum!
on August 6, 2023
Posted by: Teodor
That LEGO set is an important artifact. It belongs in a museum! I love how compact the set is as it can easily be displayed anywhere! The LEGO remake of the iconic chase scene from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade is first-rate! The figures included are fantastic with great attention to detail and high production level! The graphic design on the faces and outfits is remarkable as well! The building experience was fun! However, the sticker on the windscreen is unacceptable since it was quite hard to align properly even for an experienced LEGO builder. In the end, the sticker tore and got blurry. I know that there is a budget but there are certain things that should not be compromised! The piece could have benefitted from a print. Another miss is the absence of a seagull.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great value, best of the current wave!
on April 11, 2023
Posted by: BatmanZod117
This Indiana Jones is is a must buy, in my opinion. For the price, you get two very well designed vehicles with intricate builds. On top of that, this is a new scene from The Last Crusade in LEGO, where the other two sets in this wave are remake of older sets from 2008. Excellent figures, look, and value.

Please give us better
on April 24, 2023
Posted by: Charlie K
Lego needs to step their game up. I really wanted to like this set, but at best it’s mid. First off, stickers? Even the best stickers only last a couple decades. I don’t want a Lego set that’s eventually going to look terrible. The cockpit sticker on the plane is especially egregious. It is a nightmare to apply, and I just can’t wait for the corners to start the process of slowly peeling away. Please, please, please give us printed bricks. Even if it makes the set cost another $10 or so, I really just don’t want stickers. Secondly, it’s just not that interesting to play with. The car doesn’t have any doors or a trunk or a boot, and the windscreen is just a frame. The plane doesn’t have any particularly interesting features. Why build the wheels on technic pieces if you’re not going to make them retractable? And yes, the wings have those little brick launchers that Lego is slapping on every other set these days. It was neat the first few times, but now it’s just an overused brick-disappearer. Lego still manufactures the highest quality bricks, but their designs have become stale and redundant. I’m seeing other brick makers on the market put out some neat and innovative designs, I hope Lego does the same.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
